Sagora Senior Living celebrates Bristol Park at Amarillo Memory Care reopening


“These renovations ensure that the community continues to provide exceptional care to residents and their family members in line with Sagora’s Resident First philosophy,” Sagora Senior Living Vice President of Corporate Operations Christal Hoffman said.

Bristol Park at Amarillo Assisted Living & Memory Care, a Sagora Senior Living community, is hosting a Route 66-themed, Texas-sized party to celebrate the grand reopening of its Memory Care program. Called Back on the Map, the event will be held on Tuesday, May 16 and is open to all members of the public.

The community had been closed for renovations since last summer.

“We are so excited for people to see what we have done with Memory Care,” Sagora Senior Living Vice President of Corporate Operations Christal Hoffman said. “These renovations ensure that the community continues to provide exceptional care to residents and their family members in line with Sagora’s Resident First philosophy.”

The celebration will feature a ribbon cutting by the Amarillo Chamber of Commerce in addition to refreshments, music and tours of the community.

The event’s theme was chosen to honor Amarillo’s history and heritage as a key city along Route 66, America’s mother road. It also highlights one of the features that is at the center of the Bristol Park at Amarillo experience: a community common area that is modeled to look like a small-town main street. This unique space is in a central location, designed to feature some of the key components of a small-town setting.

“Main Street is a unique, purpose-driven experience that enhances resident comfort while serving as a gathering space for our residents,” Hoffman said. “It is designed to be familiar and reinforce a sense of belonging. In a lot of ways, it’s similar to Route 66’s role in the Amarillo area.”

The event will take place from 4-6 p.m.

CARVE1 Sports Launches Compact, Multifunctional Fitness Tool To Save Time, Money and Space With Workouts


News Image

““CARVE1 Sportsball combines the most popular gym equipment into a seamless and integrated fitness system, saving you time, space and money.”

Maximize limitless workouts while saving time, space and money with CARVE1 Sportsball. Launching today, CARVE1 Sportsball is a patented compact, integrated fitness system designed to replicate popular gym equipment in a single product. It’s made up of three weighted sections: (1) weighted core and two (2) weighted sides attachments.

It’s no secret that fitness equipment is expensive, takes up space at home and lacks versatility. Smaller than a basketball, CARVE1 Sportsball is a patented, compact, multifunctional and integrated fitness tool that’s designed to maximize workouts while minimizing the amount of space used and money spent.

CARVE1 Sportsball is a standalone circular-shaped product with unlimited exercises that can be used in the gym and attached to traditional gym equipment, like Olympic straight bars, curl bars and dumbbell bars. Its modular design allows users to easily mix and match the weight and level of resistance based on their fitness level and workout routine.

The three sections can be used independently, with traditional gym equipment, or as a standalone circular-shaped product. ​​Each of the initial three sections weighs 5lbs, 10lbs, or 15lbs (a minimum combined weight of 15lbs and a maximum weight of 45lbs), and can be mixed and matched to change the weight and level of resistance based on a user’s desire.

CARVE1 Sportsball is simple to use, too. Simply slide and lock the attachments in place when using it as a circular shape, or slide and unlock it when using the sections separately. It features a rubber exterior to protect the weighted metal interior, and the contour lines on the rubber exterior help users maintain a secure grip while exercising. CARVE1 Sportsball will have an online exercise library as well, so users can stay up-to-date on the newest workout routines.

“I’m currently active duty in the military and a gym enthusiast who designed CARVE1 Sportsball to benefit anyone, at any fitness level, achieve their workout goals,” said Corey Cooper, inventor of CARVE1 Sportsball. “It combines the most popular gym equipment into a seamless and integrated fitness system, saving you time, space and money. The Sportsball is compact, convenient and small enough to fit in most medium-size gym bags. You can take it to your gym, travel with it or workout with it at home, using minimal space.”

Build muscle, tone up and get in shape, from the comfort of home or at a local training facility, with the CARVE1 Sportsball system! To pre-order, visit pr.go2.fund/carve1.

About CARVE1 Sports

CARVE1 Sports is the newest and next leading brand in the sports fitness equipment industry. The CARVE1 Sports product performs with traditional gym equipment and as a standalone product with limited space required.

COVID-19 Now Endemic WHO Reports; What Does it Mean for Testing? Kalorama Information Has Answers


“Kalorama Information’s report ‘COVID-19 Testing Markets, 2023’ estimates that the global COVID-19 IVD market reached $29.6 billion in 2022.”

Three years and more than seven million casualties later, the COVID-19 pandemic is officially no longer a global health emergency, according to a recent statement by the World Health Organization (WHO). Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director general of WHO, announced COVID-19’s endemic designation in early May, though the decision had been carefully considered for quite some time prior to becoming official.

The endemic designation also marks the end of the coordinated global action that was necessary to protect the world’s population from the new and nefarious virus. It is now up to individual countries to determine how to effectively manage COVID in a way that each deems best.

The end of COVID as public health emergency of international concern came with a warning from Dr. Ghebreyesus in an official statement, that “the worst thing any country can do now is to use this news as a reason to let down its guard, to dismantle the systems it has built, or to send the message to its people that COVID-19 is nothing to worry about.”

Dr. Ghebreyesus’s sentiment echoes what was previously announced by leading medical market research firm Kalorama Information in its recent report COVID-19 Testing Markets, 2023, which answers what will happen to the ever-changing COVID-19 in vitro diagnostic (IVD) testing market as the pandemic recedes and becomes endemic. Most notably, Kalorama emphasized that the COVID-19 virus has proven to be very persistent and capable of mutating—producing a substantial number of variants. This is not expected to change, creating an ongoing need for COVID-19 testing.

“COVID-19 testing has been at the forefront in battling the pandemic. And even with its endemic status, the virus is here to stay even as it becomes less of a global health emergency. As a result, we expect nations worldwide to remain vigilant about managing COVID-19 along with other respiratory viruses and diseases. This includes maintaining and strengthening commitments to IVD tests targeting COVID-19 specifically,” says Bruce Carlson, vice-president and publisher of Kalorama Information.

Diagnostics have been critical in the response to COVID-19. At the height of the pandemic it became very apparent that rapid and accurate tests were absolutely critical for identifying and managing infected individuals.

During 2020 and 2021, revenues from COVID-19 testing were substantial compared to all other diagnostic testing assays and instruments. In 2020, COVID-19 diagnostic testing accounted for 20% of the total diagnostic testing market. The COVID-19 diagnostic testing climbed to more than a quarter of the total IVD diagnostic testing market in 2021. As the pandemic slowed, the COVID-19 diagnostic testing segment dropped to less than a quarter of the total IVD diagnostic testing market in 2022.

Kalorama Information estimates that the global COVID-19 IVD market reached $29.6 billion in 2022, consisting of immunoassay and molecular testing. Immunoassay COVID-19 testing accounted for more than half the market’s total and will continue to claim the lion’s share through the foreseeable future. Meanwhile, rapid testing for COVID-19 had estimated sales of more than $10 billion in 2022.

Looking ahead, sales in the global COVID-19 testing market will invariably decrease due to the shift to endemic status, a reduction in demand for COVID-19 testing, and the availability of cheaper immunoassay testing.

realistic and long-Lasting Zero-Fade Faux Foliage

“As Co-Founder & Vistafolia Certified Installer Trainer, 13 years of experience in artificial greening manufacturing, I can assuredly say this planter solution is changing the lives and businesses of people in and new, exciting way.” – Jackie Wiener, Principal UpScapers

A new offering by UpScapers has made one brand of faux plants a viable option for those with chronic illness, elderly or people or organizations who simply don’t have the budget or time to care for their potted plants.

Studies have long shown that faux foliage provides many of the same biophilic benefits as live plants. New studies even point to these replica solutions to greenery having less of an overall carbon footprint than their living counterparts, but until now there has not been a viable, realistic, all-weather solution for faux plants.

UpScaper’s is changing this with the introduction of the Flawless Fauxlage (TM) an all-weather potted plant solution with the power of Vistafolia’s proven plant technologies.

In addition to their superior UV performance, freeze/thaw performance and realism, Flawless Fauxliage artificial plants also come in a variety of shapes, styles and colors, giving people the opportunity to customize their planters in ways that aren’t possible with real plants.

Flawless Fauxliage provides plant collections aimed at mood outcomes based on color science or al-a-cart options for homeowners and also provides robust custom solutions for, expansive commercial projects.

“As Co-Founder & Vistafolia Certified Installer Trainer, 13 years of experience in artificial greening manufacturing, I can assuredly say this planter solution is changing the lives and businesses of people in and new, exciting way – and we are energized and delighted by the response we get on every project.” – Jackie Wiener, Principal UpScapers

Alucio™ Further Leverages AI in Its Beacon Scientific Exchange Platform to Elevate Content Version Control


News Image

“This new capability makes Beacon’s custom presentation builder even smarter and more effective to use,” explained Lauren Keyes, Director of Product Management. “MSLs can now spend more time focusing on their scientific engagements without the burden of manual content version management.”

Alucio™, a fast-growing provider of cloud-based software for the life sciences industry, today announced a new enhancement to its Beacon scientific exchange platform to better manage source content changes that impact custom presentations created by users. Beacon is a modern content activation and Healthcare Professional (HCP) engagement platform built specifically for Medical Science Liaisons (MSLs), Medical Affairs professionals, and Market Access teams.

Many MSLs currently utilize Beacon’s custom presentation builder feature to combine approved slides and other pieces of content, including rich media, to tailor a personalized scientific exchange to meet individual customer needs. To further enhance this feature, Beacon can now auto-detect slide content deviations from source files using visual comparison technology driven by Artificial Intelligence (AI). Beacon then automatically applies source file content updates to the impacted slides, eliminating work for MSLs and reducing the chance for compliance errors.

This unique capability in the platform helps to directly manage content version differences. This offers both efficiency and accuracy for content administrators and field medical teams.

Additionally, the comparison technology is easily configurable to adhere to each life science company’s compliance policies in terms of timing preferences, notification approaches, and expected actions by their MSLs. All content changes and customer interactions are tracked using robust reporting and analytics in Beacon to inform administrators of applicable oversight and insight-generation needs.

“MSLs seek to deepen HCP relationships through tailored, personalized scientific exchanges that are also compliant. This new capability makes Beacon’s custom presentation builder even smarter and more effective to use,” explained Lauren Keyes, Director of Product Management. “MSLs can now spend more time focusing on their scientific engagements without the burden of manual content version management.”

About Alucio:

Alucio is dedicated to the development of innovative software applications specifically for the life sciences industry. Alucio’s flagship product, Beacon, is a modern, cloud-based scientific exchange platform that enhances scientific dialogue and engagement between life science companies and healthcare professionals.
