Stand Up for Homecare at Medtrade

ATLANTA — AAHomecare will hold its seventh Stand Up for
Homecare fundraiser at Medtrade on Monday, Nov. 15, at 6 p.m. (new time) at
the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta. According to the association, the
campaign continues to generate positive public awareness about the
value of home care and key threats to the HME industry.

“During the last few years, our industry has been learning new
ways to tell our story about home care, HME, and the value and
protection we provide for our patients,” said Randy Wolfe,
president of Lambert’s Health Care, Knoxville, Tenn., and chair of
the steering committee that guides the PR campaign.

The committee is now recruiting advocates for a “national
grassroots sub-organization that will be able to take our message
and mission and spread it more widely to our local communities,”
Wolfe said. “As we go forward, we hope to achieve the long-needed
critical mass which can provide the leverage needed to gain
congressional attention and win congressional support for home care
and a long-term care solution that makes since for America.”
