does anyone know a specialist in equipment for oxygen machines in New York City
I need help in learning how to use the oxygen tanks in case of an emergency, in cleaning canulas and tubing, in finding aids to help me manage the long tubing and getting around the house, and advice on what other equipment to buy for help with using my portable oxygen concentrator in New York city.
