I am a former employee of Family Respiratory and Medical Supply and I must say something. Although it is true that Mr. Suter could cuss like a sailor and would show his temper. The man was very good to me. I worked there for 3 years. It was at times hard to work with him I admit that. And it is true that he was charged with sexual harassment and spent 6 weekends in jail. But he never treated any of his employees bad. The harassment charges were bought up by 2 young ladies who dressed well lets just say trashy. Mr Suter told them time and again to not dress this way. They didn't listen,he fired them they sued. In 2003 I had to have a total knee replacement, I told Ken I needed to be pulled from standby per my Dr. He said Ok. I need you more during the day then on standby. I was shocked that he agreed,but the big surprise was yet to come. In May of 2003 I had my surgical procedure. After the surgery I came back to work. At first I worked in the office, then back on the road. The whole time I was also doing PT at the out patients clinic. Let me make this shorter, I was not supposed to be working. I let him know he said I will miss you around here and Jim he said " Don't worry about anything, we take care of our family " He paid me for the rest of year. He has his faults, but this guy is a good friend. I have never been treated with the same respect from other employers like he treated me. I don't know what it's like working for Lincare (since Mr Suter sold his business to them) but working with him was not that bad.

I came across these reports and wanted to chime in. The former Director of IT was one of the few people at this company who knew what was going on and gave a crap about his coworkers. That Director of IT is still a great friend and is always there to help. He would never go around sabatoging wireless networks to make a dollar. The only thing I know he did was go around locating unsecure wireless networks and offer services to secure those networks. Can't blame someone for trying to earn money by helping others, right?
Olive Oyl in Felton DE needs to stop spreading lies about people just because they woke up and got the hell out of Dodge and found a new job because they got tired of the verbal and mental abuse dished out by a egotistical person we call Nepoleon.

The IT Director was given an ultimatum not to be there when the owner returned from his vacation, as he was found out through records that he was taken to court for threats as well as driving around in his car breaking into networks so he could charge people to fix them. Very shady. That's why he left his old state and relocated. If it was true that the IT Director resigned on his own, what kind of person would resign and walk out while the owner was on vacation anyway?!

The statement about the prior Director of IT is false. I have seen the resignation letter and I know management is lying about this. Management is just trying to place blame somewhere else to make themselves feel better. The owner did not fire the Director of IT....he was on a cruise to the Bahamas when this person turned in their resignation.

I worked for Family Respiratory and Medical Supply for many years and just came across these postings. I can honestly say that these statements are not true. Family Respiratory was the best place I ever worked. I believe that those who made these comments were disgruntled employees that lost at their unemployment hearings. For example, there was an I.T. guy from Tennessee that the owner fired because of a questionable background. The lawsuits that were mentioned in the above posting were not directed at the owner, but were directed at upper management of the company, from two employees that were terminated.
It is very unfortunate that rather than find another job, or try to make oneself better, people instead have to spend time bad-mouthing someone who was very generous to the staff, offering better benefits than most small businesses offer, while also taking care of a significant number of indigent patients (those who couldn't afford their medical equipment received it for free, donated, and services received were at no charge as well).
