Situations where renting wins
For short-term or urgent needs, a rental beats buying or waiting.
Census spikes overnight
Seasonal surge or an unexpected influx, and suddenly you're short on monitors or pumps. A rental covers the surge without a capital purchase you'll regret in the off-season.
Cover the surge, not the yearA device is down and out for repair
The unit's headed to depot repair and the area can't go without. A rental bridges the exact window the repair takes.
Zero downtimeA renovation or interim need
A space is being rebuilt, or you need coverage between a retirement and a purchase. Short-term rental fills the interim cleanly.
Flexible durationA short-term need becomes permanent
What started as a stopgap is now ongoing. The rental can convert to a purchase — new or certified — so you're not paying twice.
Convert to purchaseCapacity exactly when you need it
Buying makes sense for steady demand. Renting makes sense for everything else — the spike, the gap, the bridge. reLink Ready® rentals turn an urgent equipment problem into a same-conversation solution.
Census spikes
Cover seasonal surges and unexpected volume without committing capital to equipment you won't always need.
Repair bridges
Keep a clinical area running while a device is out for depot repair — no downtime, no scramble.
Project & interim needs
Short-term capacity for renovations, trials, or interim coverage between purchases.
Built around the people racing the clock
An urgent equipment gap hits each team differently. Here's what each gets.
The room stays open
When census spikes or a device goes down, a rental keeps the clinical area covered — no borrowing from another floor, no closed beds.
A bridge during repair
Send a device out for depot repair without losing the capability. A rental covers the gap for the duration, then goes back.
No capital for a short-term need
Renting matches cost to a temporary need instead of tying up capital in equipment you won't always use — with the option to convert to a purchase if it sticks.
Why renting beats the alternatives in a pinch
When the need is short-term or urgent, buying ties up capital and waiting risks downtime. Rentals solve both.
| What matters | Buy outright | Wait for repair | reLink Ready® Rental |

| Capital required | High | None | Low — rental only |
| Speed to coverage | Slow | Downtime | Fast — same-day possible |
| Flexible duration | No | N/A | Yes — your window |

Equipment rentals, answered
How fast can I get rental equipment?
Often the same day, depending on the device and your location. Our six-hub network and logistics are built to move equipment quickly, including for urgent clinical needs.
What are typical rental terms?
Flexible. You rent for the window you actually need — short-term coverage for a spike, a project, or a repair bridge — with no obligation to purchase. Terms can be extended if the situation changes.
Can a rental bridge a device that's out for repair?
Yes — that's one of the most common uses. A rental keeps the clinical area running while the original device goes through depot repair, so there's no downtime and no scramble.
Can I convert a rental into a purchase?
Yes. If a short-term need turns into a long-term one, a rental can often convert to a purchase — new or reLink Certified — so you're not paying twice.
What types of equipment can I rent?
Rentals span the categories most likely to need fast coverage — patient monitors, infusion pumps, and other patient care equipment. Ask a specialist to confirm availability for a specific make and model.

How is rental equipment maintained?
Rental equipment is maintained under the same ISO 9001:2015 certified quality system as the rest of the operation, and arrives ready to use.
Are rentals available nationwide?
Yes. With six distribution hubs and a national logistics network, rentals reach providers across the country, including for urgent needs.
Is there a minimum rental period?
Terms are built around your actual need rather than a fixed minimum. Whether it's a brief census surge or a multi-week repair bridge, you rent for the window that fits.
How is rental pricing structured?
Pricing is based on the device and the rental window. A specialist provides a clear rate up front so you can match the cost to the temporary need.
Can you deliver to multiple facilities at once?
Yes. The national logistics network can stage and deliver rentals across several sites, which helps health systems covering a system-wide surge.
What if I need to extend the rental?
Extensions are straightforward — if the situation changes, the term can be extended rather than forcing a return-and-rebook.
