Leave a comment



CLEVELAND (PRWEB)

The American Academy of Facial Esthetics (AAFE) a multidisciplinary professional healthcare organization whose mission is teaching the best non-surgical and non-invasive facial injectable techniques to healthcare professionals worldwide has launched a new program, the Medspa Business Academy (MBA) https://www.facialesthetics.org/events/categories/medspa-business-academy-mba/ to assist anyone thinking of entering the medical esthetic field, those with an existing practice branching into esthetics, and others interested in equipping their practice or medical spa for success by providing a combination of on-demand and live business training experiences.

“The Medspa industry is one of the fastest growing areas of medicine and dentistry. Over the past few years, we have received an unprecedented number of requests from business people and AAFE members requesting broader clarification on the confusing and rapidly evolving compliance and business requirements facing medical spas and others adding medical esthetics to their practice,” stated Dr. Louis Malcmacher, Founder of AAFE. “In addition, we have received many requests for resources to help to successfully structure, market and build esthetic practices.”

“AAFE is duly committed to its members and the advancement of the esthetic community,” said Gina Meyer, Executive Director of Research and Development. ‘Building out our membership initiatives with tools and events that can assist leadership with the competitive advantage to become more successful, increase revenues and be compliant with state and federal laws will be the major component of expanding our already abundant benefits.”    

In 2019, the Medspa Business Academy will take place in Los Angeles on November 2nd, Tampa on November 16th, Boston on November 23rd, and Las Vegas on December 7th. The programs will feature the top experts in business, legal, marketing, compliance and practice management of the medical spa and medical esthetic fields. They will focus on how to navigate the regulatory systems, establish achievable business plans, build an amazing team, and apply these incredible business principles to create and build a highly successful medical spa business.

AAFE has already provided thousands of live patient and online facial esthetic courses in extensive non-surgical and non-invasive facial injectables, provides its members significant discounts on facial injectables products, has an exclusive forum video library with the most extensive collection of comprehensive Botulinum Toxin, Dermal Filler and Solid Filler PDO Thread videos available anywhere, and provides comprehensive member online forums encompassing total facial esthetics and therapeutics.

The AAFE’s main objective is to teach the best non-surgical and non-invasive facial injectable techniques, provide members and non-members with the tools they need to succeed in their business, to continue to advocate for the industry, give clear guidance on the ever-evolving compliance issues, and provide the education and resources needed to have a successful medical spa practice.

Madelyn Chen

Even as I study law to give back to my community, I am aware of how much I still rely on others and deeply grateful for their help. The Dominguez Firm Legal Scholarship lifts me towards focusing on academic success instead of financial worries in law school, and words can’t express how valuable this


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

The Dominguez Firm, a nationally recognized California personal injury law firm has selected Madelyn Chen as the recipient of its 2019 Legal Scholar Award. Madelyn, who is in her first year at Harvard Law School will receive a check for $2,500 to be used towards her law school tuition.

There were many strong candidates for the Legal Scholar Award, but Madelyn’s application stood out for several reasons. One was her remarkable life story. The oldest of seven children, she was often thrust into the role of caretaker for her younger siblings due to family issues at home. Eventually, she and her siblings found themselves in and out of the foster care system.

However, Madelyn refused to be defined by her circumstances. We were struck by her determination to not just survive but thrive and forge a better future for herself and her family.

Madelyn epitomizes what the Legal Scholar Award is all about. Our founder, Juan Dominguez created this award to lessen the financial burden for deserving students interested in pursuing a career in law. By encouraging the next generation of attorneys, our hope is that they, in turn, will also value the importance of giving back.

Boasting an impressive academic record, Madelyn recently received her undergraduate degree from UCLA where she made the Dean’s Honors List on multiple occasions. While at UCLA, she also actively participated in several debate competitions with exceptional results. Among the most notable was as a member of the winning UCLA debate team in the Corsairs British Parliamentary Debate Invitational.

Outside of school, Madelyn’s employment history is already quite impressive. She has worked as an editorial intern at Larry King Now and as a publicity intern at Amazon Studios, among others. She also manages to carve time out of her busy schedule to teach public speaking to middle and high school students through the Forensics Club at UCLA, which she founded. And she volunteers at Bet Tzedek Legal Services, a Koreatown clinic that offers free legal services to low income members in the community.

The Dominguez Firm applauds Madelyn for her achievements. As she herself put it, “At Harvard Law, I am driven to continue advocating for children and serving my community.” We’re confident she will meet those goals and are honored to present her with this Legal Scholar Award.

The Dominguez Firm is an award-winning personal injury law firm located in California. We have over 30 years of experience advocating for the rights of our clients. For a free and confidential case consultation, please call us at 800-818-1818

Diablo magazine writes about UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland and its innovative use of virtual reality technology in the October 2019 issue.

"Virtual Healing" illustration by Stefania Infante

“Virtual Healing” article featured in Diablo magazine October 2019

“It’s very empowering, because you can see things that were otherwise hidden,” Dr. Auguste says, “It makes me think back to all of the difficult surgeries I’ve ever done. If only I’d had this technology before, I wonder how much easier those experiences might have been.”


WALNUT CREEK, Calif. (PRWEB)

Dr. Kurtis Auguste is a pediatric neurosurgeon at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland, and he uses virtual reality (VR) technology to prepare and plan for his surgeries. When compared to the two-dimensional, thin, vertical segments of an MRI, the 3D replica of the entire area in question is a game changer. Now, he is sharing that technology with patients and their families prior to surgery to educate and reassure them. Read the entire story here.

Using a virtual reality system called Surgical Theater, Dr. Auguste can put on a headset and “fly” into a 3D model of a young patient’s brain. The patient and his or her parents are invited to a pre-operative session where they all wear goggles and are able to watch and individually interact with the visual experience. Dr. Auguste, represented by an avatar wearing a white doctor’s coat, serves as tour guide. Using hand controls to glide around, they can see blood vessels, vision fibers, and even tumors or aneurysms. Dr. Auguste plots his point of entry for surgery and how best to remove threatening tissue abnormalities. Patients and their families benefit from a visual introduction to the cause of the patient’s medical condition and the knowledge of exactly how Dr. Auguste intends to operate on it. This exercise brings great calm and confidence to patients, helping them focus on a successful surgery and future recovery.

“It’s very empowering, because you can see things that were otherwise hidden,” Dr. Auguste says, “It makes me think back to all of the difficult surgeries I’ve ever done. If only I’d had this technology before, I wonder how much easier those experiences might have been.”

Dr. Auguste sees many applications for the future use of VR technology in the medical field, including but not limited to educating patients and medical staff, serving as a rehab and recovery monitoring tool, and training international teams of surgeons and medical staff.

Virtual reality also helps young patients manage pain and stress. Patients at UCSF Benioff Children’s can slip on a headset and enter an underwater experience called KindVR Aqua. Simon Robertson, the founder of KindVR in Alameda, says the technology allows patients to interact with dolphins and whales, which introduces a distraction, and helps them reduce the perception of pain and even potential opioid consumption.

New Arrest Records Search Tool Released By SearchQuarry.com

Leave a comment


Knowing who has an arrest record and criminal past can help to keep people and their families a little bit safer


RENO, Nev. (PRWEB)

SearchQuarry.com has just released a new online arrest record search tool where users can lookup who has been arrested, and why. Arrest records include all criminal charges against an individual, as well as any charges of suspected criminal activity, including arrest warrants, outstanding traffic tickets, court records and incarcerations. Where criminal records include only cases where the crime has been proven, arrest records include cases where a misdemeanor has been suspected.

There may be a number of reasons to search for the arrest record of an individual. Those reasons may involve finding out the criminal past of an employee; partnering with someone in a professional context; meeting a new acquaintance or romantic interest; or researching the history of a neighbor, family member, or anyone else in question. Or, someone may be interested in locating and reviewing a personal arrest record to see what remains, and to determine if further action needs to be taken to resolve the offense.

It should be relatively simple to locate a person’s arrest record, but unfortunately, that’s not always the case. While arrest records are public records and remain theoretically visible and accessible for all U.S. citizens, locating an arrest record may involve a longer administrative process. In order to locate an arrest record, a person may need to go to the county clerk’s office, make a request from the state, or hire a private investigator or attorney. In any of these cases, additional information may be required, such as a person’s residential history.

Fortunately, it is also possible to use a third-party search site to find arrest records quickly and easily. SearchQuarry’s New Arrest Record Tool provides a simple platform that can be used to locate and review anyone’s arrest record online. It’s anonymous, confidential, and can be used on a mobile phone to retrieve arrest records on-the-go. Users must simply provide a person’s first name, last name, and state of residence in order to identify the person in question.

SearchQuarry’s New Arrest Record Tool provides this valuable knowledge, giving users critical information needed to clear personal arrest records or review the arrests of potential friends, business partners, employees, romantic partners, and more. Ultimately, it can also help users identify potentially dangerous people and stay safe by being informed.

World Alzheimer’s Month Addresses Stigma Associated with Alzheimer’s and Dementia

Leave a comment



OMAHA, Neb. (PRWEB)

A new report released by Alzheimer’s Disease International (ADI) found someone in the world develops dementia every three seconds, with more than 50 million people living with dementia globally. Despite the prevalence of Alzheimer’s and dementia in our society, those affected frequently find themselves tainted by the stigmas associated with the disease.

According to research conducted by ADI, 43% of survey respondents living with dementia report being avoided or shunned by those around them, while 57% of survey respondents feel they are treated unfairly and have difficulty making or keeping friends. Two-thirds of respondents also said others even joked about their dementia symptoms.

“Social isolation and loneliness is common among those living with Alzheimer’s or dementia. But surprisingly, most of the time it is the stigma, and not the symptoms of the disease, that leads others to distance themselves from those living with the diagnosis,” said Lakelyn Hogan, Gerontologist and Caregiver Advocate at Home Instead Senior Care. “When we all make a concerted effort to eliminate the stigma associated with these diseases, we can drastically improve the quality of life for those affected.”

The negative impact of the stigma associated with Alzheimer’s and other dementias is not just limited to the more than 50 million people across the globe living with the disease, but it also extends to those providing care, particularly their loved ones. Home Instead recommends exploring at least one of the following ways to help make the world a more dementia-friendly place:


  • Define the stigma. The first step to eliminating a stigma is identifying our own belief and revising it. Find ways to shift personal perspectives about those living with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Reach out to a friend or family member to show your support. For more information, review common attitudes toward dementia at http://www.alz.co.uk/research/world-report-2019.

  • Educate yourself. Whether a family member, professional caregiver or compassionate person looking to make a difference, we all have something to learn when it comes to understanding the role Alzheimer’s and dementia can play in the lives of older adults. Visit http://www.HelpForAlzheimersFamilies.com to participate in free e-learning courses and interactive webinars.

  • Choose to include, not exclude. Identify areas where you can advocate for change by accommodating the needs of someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia. If you don’t know anyone living with the disease personally, you can find a local senior-serving organization to volunteer with on http://www.imreadytocare.com.

  • Become an Alzheimer’s Friendly Business. If you are a business owner, consider participating in a free, 30-minute Alzheimer’s Friendly Business online training, offered by Home Instead Senior Care, to help reduce common misconceptions and encourage positive experiences for all.

While we all may not experience Alzheimer’s and dementia in our lives, we do have the ability to create a world where those impacted can feel more accepted and understood. Visit http://www.helpforalzheimersfamilies.com for more resources to better understand the role you could play in breaking down stigmas and building a dementia-friendly community.

AtlanticProCare to host Open Enrollment Open House for Amputee Patients

Leave a comment



PORTLAND, Maine (PRWEB)

When Open Enrollment for health insurance season rolls around, people everywhere scramble to sort through the options and choose the plan that matches their needs. This is never an easy or straightforward task, as the differences between plans can be complex and confusing.

And for amputees, who often have very specific care needs and financial considerations that directly impact that care, it can be even more challenging.

That’s why this year, AtlanticProCare, New England’s leading provider of customized mobility solutions for amputees, is taking the lead in helping amputee patients navigate complex insurance coverage issues at an Open Enrollment Open House on Monday, October 7.

“This Open House grew out of the last few years, when we’ve seen more and more patients coming to us asking for help. And we’re fortunate to have quite a bit of expertise on staff when it comes to the nuances of specific health insurance coverage plans and how they relate to the needs of amputee patients,” said JP Donovan, President and CEO of AtlanticProCare. “It just made sense for us to get everybody who’s interested together in one room at one time and help them sort through their questions.”

Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from AtlanticProCare insurance experts and to ask questions and receive support and advice based on their specific plans of care and needs.

The Open House runs from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM on October 7. Complimentary food and beverages will be provided and transportation assistance is available for those who need it. Those interested in attending can call 774-1002 or email care@atlanticprocare.com for more information or to reserve a spot.

Educational Psychologist Releases Comprehensive Guide to Dream Imagery and Analysis

Leave a comment


News Image

“…Think of this book as an art class that will expose you to techniques and ideas that will help you to explore this expression of yourself.”


SAN JOSE, Calif. (PRWEB)

In his experience working with patients, R.J. Cole, MS, LEP, has found that repetitive images and patterns in dreams often give insight into the emotions, behaviors and problems afflicting them during waking life.

In “Morpheus Speaks: The Encyclopedia of Dream Interpreting,” Cole explains how to unpack these messages from the unconscious mind and utilize their meaning to make necessary, life-improving changes.

“Morpheus Speaks” is a starting point for readers interested in diving deeper into their inner psyches and devoting the time and energy to better understanding their emotional and spiritual sides. Compiling 5,000 commonly shared dream images, archetypes and nightmares, Cole provides brief etiologies and observations of their implications.

He also offers techniques and strategies for readers to relate the images to the context of their lives and connect with their higher selves.

“Fundamentally, there are no hard-and-fast answers to the question ‘What does my dream mean?’” said Cole. “As with any art or expression of the self, it takes practice to perfect and set free. You may, then, want to think of this book as an art class that will expose you to techniques and ideas that will help you to explore this expression of yourself.”

A thought-provoking compendium on dream images and decoding tactics, “Morpheus Speaks” is designed to help readers discover their deepest truths and achieve greater self-awareness.

Linked Senior and Pioneer Network Announce “EngageAThon” during Residents’ Rights Month to Support Campaign to Remove Physical Restraints from Amazon.com

Leave a comment



WASHINGTON (PRWEB)

According to the Alzheimer’s Association, an estimated 5.6 million Americans over the age of 65 are living with Alzheimer’s dementia today. Time and time again, research has found that older adults living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias are restrained either by chemical or physical restraints in order to address what are deemed negative or unwanted actions or “behaviors.” A Human Rights Watch report, released in February 2018, found that approximately 179,000 people living in U.S. nursing facilities are being given antipsychotic medications even though they don’t have approved psychiatric diagnoses. Research also shows that the effective way to address such issues is actually through an individualized, person-centered approach to care.

This is why Linked Senior and Pioneer Network decided to create a social media awareness campaign that brings attention to the use of restraints in home-based and residential settings. This campaign will educate the public about the negative outcomes and consequences of the use of restraints. The campaign will also provide access to other techniques, practices and resources that family members can use.

Linked Senior is challenging its clients and partners with a simple and fun “EngageAThon” contest: the more they use its evidence based platform during the month of October, the more Linked Senior will donate to Pioneer Network to support their effort to remove physical restraints currently being sold on Amazon.com. By the end of October, the Linked Senior community who has logged the most minutes of engagement on the Linked Senior platform will be recognized as the winner and receive Old People are Cool swag for their team. If you are interested in joining this effort please contact Linked Senior directly.

Pioneer Network, which was established in 1997, has worked with many other organizations over the years to not only decrease but also discontinue the practice of using both physical and chemical restraints in nursing homes. Carter Catlett Williams, one of Pioneer Network’s founders, was a social worker in Rochester, NY in the 1970’s and worked to eliminate the use of physical and chemical restraints in nursing homes. She was a leader in the restraint free movement. The Pioneer Network’s vision of A Culture of Aging that is Life-Affirming, Satisfying, Humane and Meaningful is closely aligned with the mission of Linked Senior.

“Pioneer Network has promoted and educated about individualized, person-centered care since its inception, ensuring that care and support is life-affirming and humane. We do not believe that the use of restraints in a person’s home supports this goal and we want to provide alternatives to caregivers, so they know there are other options. I’m very appreciative to Linked Senior for their contribution to this effort,” said Penny Cook, President and CEO at Pioneer Network.

Echoing this sentiment, Linked Senior CEO & Co-founder Charles de Vilmorin shared, “We believe in a world where the older adult is valued and respected – and where their experience is person-centered. Addressing their need with the opportunity to fulfill purpose is our duty, this is why we’re happy to spearhead an effort to not only remove physical restraints from Amazon.com for people living with dementia, but also support the formal and informal caregivers to help them provide the most purposeful experience.”

Linked Senior is an evidence-based resident engagement platform for senior living. The platform optimizes the person-centered experience for residents by empowering staff with digital tools to assess, plan, implement and evaluate engagement for the entire resident population.

Pioneer Network was founded in 1997 by a small group of prominent professionals in long-term care who were pioneers in changing the culture of aging, care and support. Today, Pioneer Network is the umbrella organization for the culture change movement, providing education and advocacy for person-centered care in all settings. If you are interested in getting involved in this initiative, you can do so by emailing Penny Cook at info@pioneernetwork.net.

Top Reasons Why Drivers Should Purchase Personal Injury Protection Car Insurance

Leave a comment


News Image

“Considering the high medical costs, Personal Injury Protection is a must-have policy for any driver. It will provide you and your passengers with sufficient money to get the proper treatment”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Carinsurancehints.com has released a new blog post that explains why drivers should buy PIP car insurance.

For more info and free quotes, visit https://www.carinsurancehints.com/why-should-anyone-buy-pip-auto-insurance/

Being involved in an accident is the worst thing it can happen to a driver. Recovering from injuries and trauma does not mean that the nightmare ends here. Medical bills, lost wages, car repair bills, and other expenses can quickly pile up and dent a driver’s finances. PIP insurance will help drivers to pay such costs. Visit http://www.carinsurancehints.com and get free car insurance quotes.


  • Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is “no-fault” coverage. This means that the insurance company will pay for costs, no matter who caused the accident. The policyholder does not have to wait until the fault is determined in order to be reimbursed. This is crucial for persons who urgently need money.

  • Personal injury protection provides support for numerous types of bills. PIP coverage can include medical expenses, lost income, but also long-term medical care, childcare costs, and funeral expenses. It also covers rehabilitation costs and alternative treatment costs, like acupuncture. Drivers should talk with the insurance company and consult local legislation in matters of alternative medicine treatments.

  • PIP covers not only the policyholder but also his passengers. PIP coverage extends to any passenger who was in the policyholder’s car at the moment of the accident. This means that they will have their medical costs covered.
