Into the Summit for Mental Health and Wellness 2019 – A Caving Expedition to Raise Funds to Support Canadian Veterans and their Families

Leave a comment



CALGARY, Alberta (PRWEB)

The Third Annual Into the Summit for Mental Health and Wellness fundraising initiative is coming up this weekend. Organized by the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI) Foundation in partnership with Canmore Cave Tours, this year a team of volunteers, members of the military and caving experts will descent into Rat’s Nest Cave – to heighten awareness and raise funds for veterans and their families suffering for the devastating consequences of PTSD and other forms of mental illness.

On Sunday November 10, 2019, campaign participants will venture into the Rat’s Nest Cave – a wild, undeveloped cave under Grotto Mountain near Canmore, Alberta. Formally recognized as one of Canada’s Historic Places in 1987, the cave was once home to a rich variety of animal species. At over 4km long, Rat’s Nest is one of the longest caves in Canada. Exploring this cave involves climbing, crawling, sliding, wiggling and squeezing through water-worn passages past ancient cave formations and bones.

All of the 32 participants are raising funds to join this adventure. Proceeds will be used to fund non-clinical therapies for military veterans and their families. Over $125,000 was raised from the 2016 and 2017 campaigns – during which participants climbed to the summits of Mount Buller and Mount Farquhar in Kananaskis County. For further information, to register as a caver, or to donate to someone already registered, please visit:

Leave a comment


These convenient locations allow residents in both Humble and Houston to take advantage of Townsen Memorial’s high caliber physicians–including Dr. Clifton Thomas, MD who is regarded as “Houston’s most beloved bariatric surgeon”


HOUSTON (PRWEB)

Townsen Memorial Hospital, located just off of FM 1960 and I-69 in Humble at 1475 FM 1960 Bypass RD. E, celebrated the opening of two clinic locations in early September. The clinics provide area patients with access to a variety of services, including bariatrics, physical therapy, chiropractic medicine, orthopedics, plastic surgery and more.

Townsen Memorial’s Humble Clinic is adjacent to the hospital in the Humble Medical Plaza, while the Houston location can be found just off of I-69 and 610 in Bellaire. These convenient locations allow residents in both Humble and Houston to take advantage of Townsen Memorial’s high caliber physicians–including Dr. Clifton Thomas, MD who is regarded as “Houston’s most beloved bariatric surgeon” as well as Dr. Mary Ann Spires, DC who was voted one of Houston’s Top Doctors. However, the clinics boast more than just highly-regarded doctors. The newly remodeled facilities include leading medical technologies and cutting-edge innovation in both patient treatment and care.

The newly established clinics offer consultations to new patients, as well as conservative treatments and surgical procedures ranging from Neurosurgery and Podiatry to Acid Reflux and GERD treatment. Townsen Memorial Clinics has recruited well-known names in medicine such as Dr. Mark Khorsandi, MD – one of the few surgeons in Texas trained in migraine, hand, and microsurgery; Dr. Ronald Buczek, DO who specializes in plastic surgery as well as hand surgery and microvascular surgery; and Dr. Paul Kobza, MD a well established shoulder, elbow, hand and wrist surgeon.

Delicate surgeries like spinal and neurosurgery are also within the scope of the medical talent at Townsen Memorial Clinics. Dr. Kenneth J.H. Lee, MD  specializes in minimally invasive spinal surgery as does Also on the Townsen Memorial Clinics staff is Dr. Teodulo Aves, MD  an anesthesiology specialist who has been practicing for more than 26 years and was previously the Chief of Neuro-Anesthesiology at Memorial Herman Hospital.

Other notable clinic doctors include Dr. ElFallal, Dr. Dushi Parameswaran, Dr. Gregory Vidovic and Dr. Darshan Anadu.

Though Townsen Memorial Clinics now present high-class medical care, the road to success for Townsen Memorial wasn’t easy.

After almost an entire year of renovations, Humble Surgical Hospital reopened as Townsen Memorial Hospital and Emergency Room with both new ownership and leadership, which allowed the facility a chance to integrate a new layout complete with the most up-to-date medical technology.

Leave a comment


News Image

At AHN, we are committed to providing patients with more choices close to home for the high-quality health care resources they need and deserve.


HEMPFIELD TOWNSHIP, Pa. (PRWEB)

Marking a significant milestone in health care for residents of Hempfield Township and the greater Westmoreland County region, Allegheny Health Network (AHN) and Highmark Health officials today unveiled the first of four new neighborhood hospitals being constructed across western Pennsylvania that will offer patients convenient access to high-quality health care services.

Located at 6321 Route 30 in Greensburg, AHN Hempfield—Neighborhood Hospital will be a fully licensed hospital that will provide 24/7 access to care. Staffed by board-certified physicians, nurses and other experienced health care professionals, the facility will include an emergency department and a 10-bed inpatient unit for observation and short-stay use. The attached medical office building will also house offices for a variety of primary and specialty care physician practices, including specialists in neurosurgery, cardiac surgery, thoracic surgery, cardiology, general and breast surgery, and women’s subspecialties.

AHN Hempfield is expected to officially open to patients in the coming weeks, pending licensing by the state.

“At AHN, we are committed to providing patients with more choices close to home for the high-quality health care resources they need and deserve,” said Cynthia Hundorfean, AHN President and CEO. “This beautiful new neighborhood hospital in Hempfield is another important step we have taken to fulfill that mission in Westmoreland County, and we look forward to the positive impact it will have on those who live and work in this community.”

Among numerous patient-friendly design elements, AHN Hempfield features nursing stations uniquely configured to maximize sightlines and accessibility, allowing staff to easily monitor exam rooms and minimize response times. Advanced CT and X-ray procedure rooms will accommodate patients of any age, with adjacent observation rooms that keep families together during procedures. An onsite lab will expedite processes so that patients can more quickly obtain testing results.

The hospital will also be integrated into AHN’s EPIC electronic health record, allowing medical records to be accessed and shared seamlessly for effective care coordination.

“Patients at our neighborhood hospitals will be cared for with the same high level of clinical expertise and technological sophistication available in the emergency departments and inpatient observation units of every AHN hospital,” said Tom Campbell, MD, Chair, AHN Emergency Medicine. “And the quality of their care experience at these facilities will be second to none.”

AHN Hempfield and the network’s future neighborhood hospitals located in Brentwood, Harmar and McCandless are part of a joint venture partnership between AHN and Emerus – the nation’s leading developer and operator of neighborhood hospitals. For six consecutive years, Emerus has received the prestigious Press Ganey Guardian of Excellence Award, which recognizes the country’s best-performing health care organizations that have consistently achieved the top 95th percentile or above for exceptional patient experience.

“We could not have found a better organization to partner with in bringing our neighborhood hospital model to life for the people of western Pennsylvania,” said David Stillwell, Region President, Emerus. “It has been clear from day one how important AHN is to this region and how committed its leaders, clinicians and staff at every level are to the patient-centered and community-focused health care mission and values that we share.”

AHN Hempfield’s 80,000 square-foot structure will also house a community cancer center which is expected to open in early 2020. AHN Cancer Institute—Hempfield will join four other comprehensive community cancer centers that the network has opened across western Pennsylvania in 2019. The center will offer a range of clinical and support services, including diagnostic labs and imaging, medical oncology and infusion therapy, and radiation oncology, among other services for cancer patients.    

AHN Hempfield is one of a number of new facilities and programs AHN has launched in Westmoreland County over the past two years. The network’s outpatient center on Nature Park Road provides access to a comprehensive array of diagnostic, primary, and specialty services, as well as a state-of-the-art endoscopy center. The capacity of AHN’s Premier Medical Associates facility in Irwin was also recently expanded to include a new walk-in clinic for urgent care.

Wavee Doubles Crowdfunding Campaign Goal, Raising More than $21,000 for the World’s Only Toothbrush Smart Speaker System

Leave a comment


News Image

Wavee is sure to be a hit, especially with millennials who can now fully enjoy their morning ritual with our smart speaker charging base that allows them to stream their favorite playlists in omni-directional sound.


TORONTO (PRWEB)

Wavee, a three-speed sonic-wave toothbrush combined with smart speaker technology that delivers rich amplified sound, has doubled its goal – raising more than $21,000 just two days after launching on Kickstarter.

“We’re excited for the support we’ve seen from backers on Kickstarter, who will be the first to enjoy the versatility of Wavee while they go through the everyday routine of oral care,” said Wavee Co-founder and CEO Jonathan Semira. “Wavee is sure to be a hit, especially with millennials who can now fully enjoy their morning ritual with our smart speaker charging base that allows them to stream their favorite playlists in omni-directional sound.”

Wavee is a combination of separate devices that perform important functions within a person’s daily routine: an electric toothbrush that provides optimal teeth cleaning through a sonic wave movement brush head powered by a three-speed motor, along with an accompanying smart speaker that delivers rich, amplified sound allowing customers to curate their own content and entertainment, including their favorite music, podcasts, audiobooks and featuring Amazon Alexa compatibility.

The smart speaker, which is charged with one single USB-C Port connection, also powers the charging dock for the toothbrush. Wavee’s built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery lasts up to 25 days on a single charge, allowing for minimal charging time and portability for travel.

When it comes to dental hygiene, the Wavee brush head features soft bristles designed to clean germs, bacteria and remove plaque – while being gentle on the gums.

Wavee’s full line of features include:

  • An LED Light

  • A Removable Cleaning Sleeve

  • An Easy Wipe Top Surface

  • Inductive Charging

  • An IPX 5 – Water Resistant Speaker

  • Superior Voice Pick-Up

  • Amazon Alexa Compatibility through HSP

  • A Wall Mountable Feature

  • A two-minute timer with 30 second intervals for cleaning the four quadrants of the mouth

  • Three Brushing Modes – (Standard (41,000rpm), White (48,000rpm), Sensitive (33,000rpm)

  • Eight-Hour Playback

  • A 48,000 RPM Motor

  • Omnidirectional Sound

  • Bluetooth 5.0 Compatibility

Semira came up with the idea of Wavee by his own recognition that there was a void when it came to enjoying entertainment during his morning routine. He says Wavee allows everyone to maximize their time, which is commonly up to 60 minutes a day or more prepping for the day ahead.

“People typically use their weak phone speaker or have to worry about bringing a Bluetooth speaker in and out of the bathroom,” he said. “But with Wavee, they will never run into that problem again…whether at home or on the road. This opens up an entirely new and enhanced user experience, with Wavee providing the missing link to turn any common bathroom space into a secluded haven.”

As part of the brand’s goal to provide a ‘total’ oral care experience, Wavee will also offer supplementary products such as toothpaste, floss and teeth whitening strips, all of which are available through a subscription package with the Wavee product.

For more information and to purchase Wavee at an early-bird discount during crowdfunding, visit the Wavee Campaign Page on Kickstarter.
