Why practice managers keep their list with us

Running a consulting room, a frail care wing or a small day hospital means the same items run out on the same schedule. These are the parts of ordering that actually save you time during a normal week.

One list, one written quote

Send your examination room basics, wound care items and PPE in a single email. You get the quote back in writing with each line itemised, so nothing gets approved twice or ordered short.

Bulk lines priced properly

Gloves, syringes, gauze and IV lines are the items you go through fastest. Ordering them by the case instead of the box keeps the shelf stocked and the per-unit cost down across the month.

Sizes checked before you buy

Glove sizes, cuff fittings and compatible accessories are easy to get wrong on a first order. Tell us what you already use and we match it before the quote is finalised.

Standing orders for repeat items

Sterilisation pouches, saline and dressings rarely change. Set a monthly standing order and the same list ships on a fixed schedule without someone re-typing it every four weeks.

Dispatch from two warehouses

Orders leave from Johannesburg or Cape Town depending on where you are. Gauteng, the Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal usually see delivery within the same week.

Furniture and aids in the same catalogue

Reception seating, mobility aids and diagnostic instruments sit alongside consumables, so a room refit and a restock can go out as one order instead of three separate suppliers.

Not sure where a line belongs? Read what to prepare before a first consultation or send your list to the team and we will sort the categories for you.

What a Frail Care Home Actually Needs on the Shelf

Frail care homes run on a different rhythm than a GP practice. Dressings get changed twice a day, gloves disappear faster than anyone predicts, and the autoclave runs on a fixed cycle whether or not the storeroom is ready. The list below covers the parts of Yak Medical's service that matter most when you are ordering for a residence rather than a single consulting room.

  • Monthly standing orders for repeat items

    Set the list once and it ships on the same schedule each month. Useful for gauze, saline, gloves and sterilisation pouches that never sit on the shelf for long.

  • Bulk pricing on the high-turnover lines

    Gloves, syringes, gauze and IV lines are priced by the case. If your residence goes through two cases of nitrile gloves a month, that is where the difference shows.

  • Help matching sizes and fittings

    Mobility aids, commode fittings and reception seating come in more variations than the catalogue suggests. Send the room dimensions and we will confirm what fits before you commit.

  • Delivery from Johannesburg and Cape Town

    Same-week delivery covers Gauteng, the Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal. Orders outside those provinces are quoted with a realistic lead time rather than a guess.

Working out the first list for a new residence? The category breakdown covers what sits in each part of the catalogue, and the quote request takes a written list by email.
