“What an honor to be recognized at the top of the list of the Best Workplaces for Women in 2023!” said Pam Sexauer, President of Roth Staffing Companies. “I’m extremely grateful to work with dynamic and strong women every day. Their determination and dedication to their work and balancing their personal lives inspire me and everyone around them. I am so proud of all that they do for our company and their communities.”
The Best Workplaces for Women list is highly competitive. Great Place To Work, the global authority on workplace culture, determines its lists using its proprietary For All™ Methodology to evaluate and certify thousands of organizations in America’s largest ongoing annual workforce study, with over 1.3 million survey responses received this year, representing the experiences of more than 7.5 million employees.
Survey responses reflect a comprehensive picture of the workplace experience. Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer positive outcomes for women regardless of job role, race, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifier. Great Place To Work analyzed the gender balance of each workplace compared with Bureau of Labor Statistics industry data. Companies are also assessed on how representation changes as women rise from front-line positions to the board of directors.
“In a challenging market, companies can’t afford to leave workers on the sidelines,” says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “When women feel empowered to be full participants in the workplace, productivity and profit grows, insulating the organization from external pressure. We celebrate these companies who are committed to closing the gender gap, developing the next generation of women leaders to solve the complex problems we all face.”
“Fortune congratulates the companies that made the cut for the Best Workplaces for Women,” says Fortune Editor-in-Chief Alyson Shontell. “Based on survey responses of so many women nationwide, these companies clearly demonstrate they have created workplaces where women are consistently valued, supported, and encouraged to do their best work.”

GeoComm, provider of Public Safety Location Intelligence®, and RapidSOS, creator of the world’s first intelligent safety platform, are excited to announce that RapidSOS is offering a Floor Estimator feature powered by GeoComm Vertical Location Services.
ST. CLOUD, Minn., Oct. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — GeoComm, provider of Public Safety Location Intelligence®, and RapidSOS, creator of the world’s first intelligent safety platform, are excited to announce that RapidSOS is offering a Floor Estimator feature powered by GeoComm Vertical Location Services. Currently available for 9-1-1 calls from Android-based devices, this feature empowers RapidSOS customers with the ability to convert raw z-axis position measurements into a dispatchable location. The service provides critical data resulting in reduced emergency response times that saves lives and protects property.
When a 9-1-1 call is received at an Emergency Call Center (ECC), emergency call takers are able to view z-axis location information in an actionable format. This is a transformational opportunity for the Public Safety industry, which will now have access to floor-level actionable data on 9-1-1 callers throughout the United States.
GeoComm Vertical Location Services uses nationwide open-source data for elevation and building details to estimate a caller’s vertical location along with additional details about that location, such as a building name. There are no requirements for local GIS data to run the system, but results can be improved by accessing a paid upgrade to Vertical Location Services, which provides additional relevant information about indoor spaces, including indoor maps and details about what is inside buildings along with other data being delivered in GeoComm Vertical Location Services query responses.
“Through this partnership, we empower our customers with actionable z-axis position measurements,” said Edward Parkinson, President of Public Sector at RapidSOS. “This data enables ECCs across the country to more efficiently and effectively identify, communicate, and navigate to 9-1-1 caller’s locations inside multistory buildings, resulting in reduced emergency response times that saves property and lives.”

About GeoComm: GeoComm, provider of Public Safety Location Intelligence®, serves local, regional, statewide, and military agencies in forty-nine states, helping keep more than 100 million people safe. Over the last 28 years, GeoComm’s public safety GIS systems have routed emergency calls to the appropriate 9-1-1 call centers, mapped callers’ locations on tactical emergency response mapping displays, and guided emergency responders to accident scenes on in-vehicle mapping and navigation applications within police, fire, and ambulance vehicles. In addition, our statewide NG9-1-1 GIS project footprint has expanded to include 17 statewide projects across the country. Visit geocomm.com to learn more about GeoComm and our Public Safety Location Intelligence® offerings.
About RapidSOS: In partnership with public safety, RapidSOS has created the world’s first intelligent safety platform that securely links life-saving data from over 500 million connected devices, apps and sensors directly to safety agents, 911 and first responders.

VENUS WILLIAMS in partnership with Dove and LAURIE HERNANDEZ in partnership with Nike will help raise awareness of the program in New York on October 24, 2023 ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Oct. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Girls who participate in physical activity – and stay with it through…
The Spot will identify recipients for service dogs in collaboration with Soldier’s 6, a Minnesota-based non-profit that provides active-duty military members, honorably discharged veterans and first responders with specially trained K9s. Under the direction of former law enforcement officer and The Spot’s head trainer Mike Boehmer, The Spot is expected to train as many as 65 service dogs annually. There is no cost to recipients for their service dogs or training.
“We remain committed to making a difference,” said Charlie Nelson, CEO of KLN Family Brands, the parent company of NutriSource. “The Spot will train up dogs to do what they love to do and we know the companionship of a dog can literally save a life. We are also creating jobs and helping our veterans and first responders find a way out of the dark and into the light.”
“Our long-term aspiration is to have a number of these facilities around the country. The needs are staggering,” added Nelson.
General manager of The Spot, Chris Heikkila, is himself a veteran and a recipient of a service dog (K9 Leo) through the Soldier’s 6 program. “I suffer from multiple physical disabilities as well as diagnosed severe anxiety/panic attacks, depression, and PTS,” said Heikkila.
“For so long we have been conditioned to push these issues down deep and press on. The reality is that it’s not always possible, and must be addressed eventually, to help heal and manage your mental health. K9 Leo has provided support and companionship through some of life’s toughest days. He has been a lifesaver who has helped me heal and persevere.”
In addition to the service dog training facility, The Spot will feature a retail area open to the public that will offer NutriSource Pet Food, treats and other pet items, 34 kennels with five executive dog suites, an area for cat boarding, pet daycare and three full-service grooming stations.
The Spot will host a grand opening celebration on Wednesday, November 1 from 3-5 pm at its location at 7600 69th Avenue North in Greenfield. The event will feature special appearances by facility dogs from the NutriSource Facility Dog Program at the M Health Fairview Masonic Children’s Hospital, former world champion boxer Caleb Truax, University of Minnesota women’s basketball player Mara Braun and other special guests. Food, prizes, and tours are available free of charge to attendees. The public is invited to attend.

About Health Literacy:
The U.S health care system maintains one of the most sophisticated health care delivery systems in the world. However, in spite of the many advances in treatment and technology, a major barrier exists: Nearly half of all U.S. adults lack the skills necessary to read, understand, and act on their own health such as how to take their medications or understand basic health care instructions. This issue is known as low health literacy. Low health literacy is a stronger predictor of health status than age, income, employment, education, race, or ethnicity. An estimated 80 million Americans have low health literacy, which not only causes medical errors, high rates of hospitalization, death, and poor health care outcomes, but is estimated to cost the U.S. economy up to $236 billion annually.
About Health Literacy Innovations:
Health Literacy Innovations (HLI) creates tools to reduce medical mistakes, unnecessary health care costs, and poor health outcomes from low health literacy. HLI’s flagship product, the Health Literacy Advisor™ (HLA) (in Spanish–Asesor de Comunicación en Salud™), is a state-of-the-art interactive health literacy software tool available in multiple platforms, including a web-based model. As a “health literacy checker,” the HLA revolutionizes the labor-intensive health literacy review process by leveraging powerful software to help communicators evaluate, standardize, and produce clear health information. The uniquely-built HLA blends best in-class features for plain language and health literacy compliance that include English and Spanish readability indices, an interactive plain language search-and-replace function, usability, and document assessment tools that rewards users for good work, and more.

“Addressing underlying psycho-social determinants of health in the surgical window is incredibly difficult and Vx Therapy shows tremendous potential to address this unmet societal need,” says Alexander R. Vaccaro, MD, PhD, MBA, President of Rothman Orthopaedic Institute, Richard H. Rothman Professor and Chairman of the Department of Orthopaedics, and Professor of Neurosurgery at Thomas Jefferson University and Hospitals. “It will not exclude patients with underlying and/or concurrent depression and anxiety which has been clearly shown to create deleterious outcomes from a surgical standpoint.”
“We are excited to learn how technology can help the way we manage pain in surgical and non-surgical patients,” says Jose A. Canseco, MD, PhD, the study’s principal investigator, who also serves as Assistant Professor of Orthopedic and Spine Surgery at Thomas Jefferson University and Vice Chair of Research for Rothman Orthopaedics. “This study provides a comprehensive analysis of patient response to this non-pharmacological and non-interventional option to provide treatment for pain as well as provide support for the psycho-social determinants of health that are so difficult to identify and address.”
A first of its kind, this has the potential to provide a new tool for surgeons to address unmet patient needs and create better outcomes and a better patient experience. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of Vx Therapy when used in conjunction with a variety of surgical procedures.
“Vx Therapy is the first digital therapeutic platform to address not only symptoms of pain and trauma, but to address patients holistically,” states Gerry Stanley, M.D., P-CEO, Senior Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of Harvard MedTech. “Traditional models of healthcare have focused on a bio-medical model of healthcare while Vx Therapy and this study are designed to utilize a bio-psycho-social model of healthcare, in a patient’s home, to promote recovery and resiliency.”
For Rothman Orthopaedics, research is one of the pillars of which the practice has built its long-standing success. Rothman’s world-class, award-winning spine team continues to lead the international spine community through its extensive academic involvement in numerous societies, and participating in the leadership of national organizations, including the AAOS, CSRS, NASS, LSRS, and the AO Foundation. Rothman has participated in ground-breaking research and clinical trials with the goal of advancing knowledge, developing treatments and improving outcomes for the benefit of patients. Their physicians treat problems resulting from degeneration of the cervical and lumbar discs, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, spinal deformity, tumors, trauma and instability.
