Many individuals and organizations are reaching out to Cottage Health to offer support through donations of medical supplies. Cottage is extremely grateful to the organizations and local businesses who have provided supplies to help restock protective equipment for healthcare workers providing care at the hospitals.

Although work began early to manage and conserve supplies, the COVID-19 situation is evolving day by day. The global demand has overwhelmed the limited supplies being manufactured by some of the typical supply chain.

Based on market supply availability and projected usage, Cottage anticipates supply challenges for protective equipment including: medical goggles, face shields, protective masks and gowns.

Cottage Health will be accepting donations of medical supplies in case they are needed in coming weeks.

It is important that members of the public do not enter hospital lobbies to make supply donations. Hospitals are under a health officer order not to allow visitors.

The Medical Supply Donation Center drop-off at Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital (GVCH) will be open in its new location outside the main GVCH lobby entrance. Supply donations may be dropped off Tuesdays and Thursdays 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
