On behalf of our Pastor Rev Dr. James Pankey and our entire church family, we appreciate you providing us with much needed services with Hospital Med Supply. Not only did you ensure that we were equipped with an adequate and appropriate AED device, you offered and provided a full-service management program that included professional instruction and CPR certification.
It was truly a blessing to have you as our insturctor. We knew from the start that you came to us credentialed and highly recommended and our expectations did not fall short. You were very professional in every sense, making sure that what was taught was thorough, detailed and easy to understand. The students (volunteer members of church) were appreciative to you for what they learned and it boosted their confidence to complete the course and receive a CPR certification. Ultimately, they were very excited to know that they could potentially help to save someone's life.
Again, we appreciate and are grateful for the work that you do. May God continue to bless you and all those you serve.
We sincerely thank you.

Ebony Godwin, RN, BSN, M.S. is a Registered Nurse, American Heart Association (AHA) certified CPR and BLS Instructor, and the founder of Hospital Med Supply and Sanctuary Strong™.
Her ministry-focused program helps churches prepare for medical emergencies by providing access to AEDs, CPR certification, and organized medical response teams.
Her mission began after her aunt experienced cardiac distress at church where no AED or trained responders were available. That life-changing moment revealed a dangerous gap in church preparedness and inspired Ebony to create a program that equips ministries with both the tools and the training to save lives.
Through Hospital Med Supply, Ebony has trained and equipped church teams and healthcare professionals across the Greater Cincinnati area. Her goal is to see every congregation become not only a place of worship but also a place of safety and readiness, where members feel confident, protected, and ready to serve in love and action.
