PPE Available for physicians
TCMS is partnering with the Capital Area Trauma Regional Advisory Council (CATRAC) to procure and distribute PPE to local physicians as supplies are received.
If your spouse or their group needs PPE, please have them complete the Supply Request Form. TCMS will contact them with instructions on where the PPE can be picked-up.
NOTE: In an effort to distribute supplies to as many physicians as possible, they may not receive 100% of the requested quantity. There may also be items requested that are not available.
Fit Test by Appointment
TCMS now provides fit-testing of N-95 masks on Thursday afternoons. Physicians can sign up for fit testing here or, if Thursday afternoons are not convenient, call (512) 206-1249 to arrange a special appointment.
Filtration Testing
TCMS has also purchased a particle counter and is offering mask filtration testing. Physicians who have a mask that they would like to have filter tested, can drop it off or mail it to TCMS at 4300 N Lamar, Austin, TX 78756. Please include at least one mask and the original outer packaging which includes the name, manufacturer, and model number. Also include physician’s contact information so that results can be relayed.
The data obtained by this testing are made public and accessible on physicianselfdefense.org.
