Happy Holidays! The 4C program would love to thank everyone for their on going support throughout the development of the program.  As everyone is aware, the 4C program’s funding is ending December 31, 2017.  We’ve been grateful for the volunteers who have stepped up in helping continue the work for the Medical Home Meeting and to up keep the blog.

On December 12, 2017  Jim Haas and Maria Burke from Orthotics and Prosthestics Labs, Inc joined us.  They expressed their enjoyment in providing great customer service for patients.  Including the understanding the hassle with insurance companies and also providing mobile services to patients.  They assist with the following: Cranial remolding, AFO’s and bracing, Orthoic care, Dynamic Movement Orthosis, Spinal Orthoses, Prosthetic, and compression garments. They are located at 300 Bernie Ave, Springfield, MA 01107 and there contact information is (888)432-5488. Check out their website for further information: http://www.oplabs.net/

We also had Denise Gloekler, Director of Rehabilitation, Shriner’s Hospital for Children.  She shared the amazing services that Shriners Hospital provides and the care they extend for their patients. She encouraged providers to reach out and complete a referral if they feel a patient would benefit from services.  You can find out more about their services on their website: Shriners Hospital Springfield

Again,  we can not thank you enough for the on-going support.  We wish everyone a happy holiday! Next meeting: January 9, 2018 at 9:15am at Shriners Hospital in Springfield, MA.
