November 21, 2023 (Richmond, B.C.) – On Tuesday, November 14, 2023, HME Home Health, collaborating with Motion, held a successful one-day conference highlighting Pediatric Equipment at the Executive Inn in Burnaby. The event theme was Creating & Enhancing Accessibility for Young Lives, and it provided local pediatric therapists and other health professionals with an educational day focused on best practices in pediatric equipment provision.
Robert Boscacci, CEO and Co-Founder of HME Home Health noted, “HME was excited to partner with Motion, another local pediatric equipment provider, to host this valuable clinical training and education day.”
“Starting in 2023, HME and Motion have been working together to combine our knowledge and expertise on pediatrics and have become the go-to pediatrics equipment suppliers in B.C.”, Boscacci continued. “We intend to have this relationship continue with future events and look forward to bringing to the market high-quality, clinical, educational sessions that improve accessibility in our communities for all children.”
HME COO Michelle Harvey said, “The fact that our event was so well received, in that it was well attended by local clinicians eager to participate in the event, speaks volumes to the ongoing need for clinical education in the Pediatric space.”
“Furthermore, I want to extend my gratitude to Linda Norton, Kathy Fisher, Helena Brennert, James Gilmour, and Amanda Storey for providing their clinical expertise in multiple sessions throughout the day,” Harvey continued. “Each of them is a noted leader in their field, and we appreciated having them attend and share their knowledge.”
The participation of key Pediatric equipment manufacturers further enhanced the event.
“Motion Concepts, Evergreen Medical Products, Ki Mobility, Permobil, and Sunrise Medical supported and partnered with HME and Motion to ensure that this event was a success and that local clinicians were able to see first-hand new products to support the children they serve,” said Cameron Fleming, HME CIIO and Co-Founder. “A big thank you to them for taking the time to travel and attend this conference.”
“During the event, the manufacturers presented key case studies, and they formed a great discussion piece and further enhanced our in-depth educational sessions,” said Michelle Harvey.
Finally, Robert Boscacci noted, “Pediatric equipment training is essential to our communities, as we all work towards enhancing accessibility for all.”
“With HME and Motion offering over 20 locations across B.C., we are able to support and provide Pediatric equipment to children in all corners of the province,” said Boscacci.
Starting from a single operation in B.C.’s Lower Mainland a decade ago, HME has expanded aggressively across the province in recent years and today has seven locations and over 75,000 sq ft. of office and warehouse in Richmond, Victoria, Surrey, Nanaimo, North Vancouver, and Kelowna.
