Founded in 1970 by Julian and Barbra Cherubini, Alimed is a privately held manufacturer and distributor of specialty medical supplies.

Alimed provides a vast portfolio of healthcare products for markets spanning from "hospital to home," including rehabilitation, orthopedics, the operating room, and medical imaging. The company's business model is centered on selling a wide array of medical products directly to healthcare providers like hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, and private practices, as well as to dealers and distributors both domestically and internationally. Revenue is generated through the sale of these goods, which range from everyday essentials to highly specialized equipment. Alimed has also secured national group purchasing agreements with major healthcare providers such as Vizient and Premier Inc.
The product catalog is extensive, featuring items like patient positioners, orthopedic braces, fall management alarms, ergonomic solutions, and diagnostic imaging accessories. A key feature for Alimed is its on-site customization capability, allowing it to create made-to-order products such as medical cart covers, positioners, sandbags, and straps to meet specific client specifications. The company emphasizes its responsiveness and ability to deliver both standard and hard-to-find products efficiently, with a high percentage of orders shipped the same day.
