The Marshall County Health Department encourages small businesses to apply for personal protective equipment (PPE) through the state’s PPE Marketplace.
This is for businesses employing up to 150 associates that are in need of PPE to ensure the health and safety of the workforce.
However, Health Administrator Ashley Garcia says online orders are not guaranteed. Demands are increasing worldwide and priority is given to front-line healthcare workers and first responders treating COVID-19 patients statewide.
All requests will be evaluated and fulfilled based on work environment risk profile, stock availability and the number of outstanding requests. Partial or delayed fulfillment of orders may occur.
