1st Class Medical Invites the BBB to See Their New Facility for Oxygen Concentrator Patients

    LAKE CITY, FL, January 25, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- 1st Class Medical, a leading provider of home and portable oxygen concentrators, announced today that they have invited the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to visit their new facility in Englewood, Colorado. The BBB is a non-profit, public service organization providing free business Reliability Reports, and other very valuable information to the public. The BBB is a trusted organization people go to as way to gather information on any company across the United States.

"We are excited to have such a prestigious organization such as the Better Business Bureau come visit our facility," Cory Luckner, 1st Class Medical's vice president, said when asked for comment. "The BBB is known for trust, integrity and reliability; the same traits we want our company to be known for. That is one of the reasons our company 1st Class Medical started their own department making sure other oxygen concentrator companies tell the truth. Doing our own homework, we found a company that was telling customers continuous flow portable oxygen concentrators come with an internal battery. As soon as we heard that our company contacted the other company letting them know if they continued they would be reported. It's a great feeling when you turn a dishonest company into an honest one. With our continued investigation into other respiratory companies, it will be really hard to lie to a customer to make a sale. If you do, 1st Class Medical will catch you and turn you in. Helping others means the world to me and we will not let anyone give our industry a bad name."

The Better Business Bureau (BBB) covers most of the nation's businesses and charities. The BBB responds to millions of inquiries each year, providing information about businesses and charity organizations, helping resolve consumers disputes with businesses through mediation and arbitration. They promote ethical business standards and voluntary self-regulation of business practices.

As an advocate of the BBB, 1st Class Medical will do everything possible to maintain the integrity of the oxygen therapy equipment industry. All of their facilities are always open to the public. Some of them offer a showroom, a training room open to support groups for meetings, and a large warehouse full of inventory. The inventory includes just about every make and model of home and portable oxygen concentrators. Their parent company, NFM, offers full-service pharmacies.

1st Class Medical recognizes that who you are online is as important as who you are offline. 1st Class Medical is large Internet provider of respiratory equipment as well as a brick and mortar operation located in Florida and Colorado. Interviewer: "Why have you waited over 20 years to give your information to the BBB?" Cory Luckner: "Well, we were very large in our community under our parent company, North Florida Medical. Customers came in and enjoyed the staff. They were able to see the type of company we are. Today, with the Internet growing so fast, we wanted our customers to see our A+ rating online. I think it makes them feel a lot more comfortable. It lets them know they are dealing with a company that cares about them, not just selling equipment."

1st Class Medical is a growing company adding over a thousand patients yearly. They have more plans on expansion. Plans they do not want to disclose to us at the moment. Plans they say that will make it possible for just about anyone that needs oxygen, to be able to afford oxygen.
