Geritrex Corp. Names New Vice President of Sales and Business Development

New York-Based Healthcare Manufacturer Introduces William Spinelli as Key Leader in Building the Company’s Profitability and Market Share

Geritrex is Helping Hospitals and Long-Term Care Facilities Tackle the Swine Flu

Message from the President:

The swine flu, also referred to as the H1N1 virus, is currently spreading across our nation and so far, at least 27 deaths are linked to the disease.

Prior to starting Geritrex Corp., I worked for several years as a pharmacist in a geriatric nursing home. I saw firsthand how viruses spread rapidly in institutional settings due to the sharing of resources and enclosed living quarters. Older people and those with compromised immune systems are especially vulnerable to influenza infections, which is why it is very important for medical facilities to use the proper products to help stop or slow the progression of the swine flu.

A simple way to help reduce the risk of exposure to swine flu is to stress the importance of personal hygiene among staff and patients. This means washing hands often with soap and warm water and using instant hand sanitizers, especially after sneezing, wheezing and coughing. The routine cleaning and disinfection of hard surfaces is also very important during this outbreak, as this virus can survive on bed rails, countertops, drawer handles, floors and doors for a few hours. By utilizing an effective disinfectant-cleanser, it will help to reduce the amount of the H1N1 virus present on environmental surfaces.

As you purchase infection control supplies for your healthcare facility, please consider Geritrex’s arsenal of products to help keep the H1N1 virus at bay. Our company offers low cost, yet highly effective soaps, hand sanitizers and hospital-grade cleaning products, including:

New! Alc-Free™ Foam – An alcohol-free, instant hand sanitizer that offers long-lasting protection from germs. It effectively cleans and removes both bacteria and viruses from the skin without stripping it of its natural oils. Alc-Free™ also offers a gentle foaming action to help ensure easy and even product application.

Gel-Stat™ Instant Hand Sanitizer (Comparable to Purell®) – An alcohol-based, waterless hand cleanser. Gel-Stat™ is not only an extremely effective hand sanitizer, it is also formulated with natural Aloe Vera and Vitamin E to help moisturize and condition the skin. It is currently available in two scents – Original and Peach Mango.

ASC Lotionized Soap™ (Comparable to Dial® Antibacterial Soap) – A powerful antimicrobial skin cleanser that contains the antibacterial agent Triclosan to help kill germs and reduce bacteria on the hands. ASC Lotionized Soap™ is also formulated with natural skin conditioners that are extra mild to the skin, including Aloe Vera, Sweet Almond Oil and Vitamin E.

Geri-Dyne™ - An effective hospital grade sanitizer, cleaner and disinfectant for hard surface cleaning in medical and non-medical use areas. This one-step cleaner-disinfectant contains a germicidal iodophor which is very effective against the H1N1 virus.

Sincerely yours,

Anthony Madaio, RPh
President and CEO, Geritrex Corp.
