The initial release of the QuickBooks Integration Module started with creating invoices into QuickBooks from sales data DashBook imports from sources such as Amazon Kindle and IODA.

Uproar Entertainment, the Comedy CD Company, prompted the inclusion of direct bill payment into QuickBooks to complete their royalty processing cycle.

"DashBook has revolutionized royalty accounting for us. Beginning with an easy interface with our distribution sources, it is simple to directly upload sales data and have royalties automatically calculated. The integration with QuickBooks, our accounting system, further enhances the process. DashBook is easy to learn and to operate, and the technical support provided is beyond compare," said Sheryl R. Drozen, Vice President, Uproar Entertainment.

DashBook Royalty Pro is available now directly from Financial Softworks by visiting http://www.DashBook.com/ with prices starting at $499 for a single-user system.

A R T I C L E:

CONIX Systems, Inc. is introducing its Risk Detective(TM) solution for real time scoring of client eligibility in support of financial institutions' risk management strategies. Challenged to comply efficiently with FFIEC guidelines and to mitigate the risk associated with the expansion of payment options, financial institutions must carefully target the marketing and availability of these products only to customers who have been properly vetted.

"Decision making in the world of electronic banking is an opportunity within a challenge - an opportunity both to 'Know Your Customer' and, for some products, to 'Select Your Customer,' through sophisticated analytics," said CONIX President and CEO Mike Charles. "Risk Detective was developed with the informed input of banks, payment processors, and industry experts who have a firm grasp of the challenges and risks associated with offering alternative payment products."

Risk Detective provides a real time assessment of the client relationship by collecting and analyzing risk factors for all deposit accounts associated with an institution's customer. To provide the most accurate assessment possible, Risk Detective takes both historical and same-day activity across payment channels into consideration when computing eligibility ratings. Risk assessments are available immediately upon inquiries from other systems and via Risk Detective's web-based user interface.

Risk Detective's user-defined risk-scoring methodology allows risk categories and events to be defined and weighted by the bank, with risk computations defined by product and account type.

A bank can implement Risk Detective as a standalone product or as part of CONIX Systems' Detective Suite(TM), an integrated product set developed to safeguard banks from the risks associated with innovations in the payment industry. Detective Suite products share a common infrastructure that includes components essential to high-efficiency systems that adapt easily to changing business requirements. These components include a shared database, cross-channel support, multi-bank support, user-defined business rules, workflow integration, scalability, and more.

Some of the benefits that Risk Detective offers financial institutions are:
* Risk mitigation
* Enhanced client selection
* Competitive advantage
* Reputation protection
* Reduced costs
* Enhanced regulatory compliance.

Risk Detective is the latest addition to CONIX Systems' Detective Suite. The Detective Suite also provides Day 1, multi-channel, multi-bank solutions for duplicates and fraud. Detective Suite products share a common infrastructure that includes a shared database, cross-channel support, user-defined business rules, multi-bank support, scalability, streamlined processing, workflow integration, web interfaces, full audit tracking and reporting, menu-driven controls, and more.

RXCut Plus Launches New Website to Search Best Pharmacy Prices

Author: RXCut Plus
Dateline: Dover, Pennsylvania (DOVER, Pa.)  | Thu, 28 Feb 2013

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “RXCut(R) Plus announced this week a new website that is designed to help people get the best prescription price available. 'Our cutting-edge pharmacy price search is tightly integrated with Google Maps technology making it faster and easier for people to access pharmacy information,' Gerard Ferro, founder and CEO RXCut(R) Plus, says.”



A R T I C L E:

RXCut(R) Plus announced this week a new website that is designed to help people get the best prescription price available. "Our cutting-edge pharmacy price search is tightly integrated with Google Maps technology making it faster and easier for people to access pharmacy information," Gerard Ferro, founder and CEO RXCut Plus, says.

"People can easily search for multiple medication prices at all the pharmacies in their local area so they know they are getting the best price available."

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) report that in 2014, prescription drug spending is expected to grow at a rate of 10.7 percent. In fact, medication costs have been the fastest-growing component of healthcare costs for the past five years. So, what can people do to combat these soaring prescription fees?

Ferro has 26 years of broad-based healthcare industry experience and is nationally recognized for his expertise in healthcare, healthcare technology and pharmaceutical plan management.

RxCut(R) Plus is the self identified "Equalizer in Healthcare." Its mission is to give people control over their healthcare costs through prescription, lab tests and imaging service savings.

In addition to offering this cost-saving prescription search tool, RxCut(R) Plus also has a free discount card available for download on its website. This discount card provides access to savings up to 75 percent for prescription medications and up to 50 percent for lab and imaging services. These cards may used for pet medications too.

So, how does it work? There are a few ways that people may take advantage of RXCut(R) Plus services.

First, if a person has insurance and is obtaining a generic prescription that is more than $10, the person then presents their free RxCut(R) card and asks for the RxCut(R) Plus price.

"We guarantee you the lowest price between our discounted price, your insurance co-pay or the pharmacy cash price," Ferro says.

Second, if a person does not have prescription insurance, he or she presents their free RXCut(R) card at the pharmacy for instant savings on every generic and brand prescription.

There are no enrollment fees; everyone qualifies and usage is unlimited. It works for all FDA-approved medications and pet medications.

Trustmark National Bank Selects CONIX Systems’ Fraud Detective

Author: CONIX Systems, Inc.
Dateline: Manchester, Vermont (MANCHESTER, Vt.)  | Thu, 28 Feb 2013

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “CONIX Systems, Inc., a leading international provider of payment processing solutions to the financial services industry, is pleased to announce that Trustmark National Bank (Trustmark) will add Fraud Detective(R) to the bank's payment processing operation. Trustmark, with approximately 220 branch locations in Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Texas, is a subsidiary of Trustmark Corp (NASDAQ:TRMK).”



A R T I C L E:

CONIX Systems Inc., a leading international provider of payment processing solutions to the financial services industry, is pleased to announce that Trustmark National Bank will add Fraud Detective(R) to the bank's payment processing operation. Fraud Detective helps banks and payment processors reduce both risk and cost by improving the speed and accuracy of identifying payment fraud across payment channels. Trustmark, with approximately 220 branch locations in Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Texas, is a subsidiary of Trustmark Corp (NASDAQ:TRMK), a diversified financial services company with approximately $11.5 billion in assets that provides banking, wealth management, and insurance solutions.

Fraud Detective integrates Day 1 detection capabilities, proven fraud controls and user-driven business rules for early identification and resolution of fraudulent payments. The product also offers image analytics as an optional feature for performing key validations that assist in identifying counterfeit, forged, or altered documents.

"Trustmark has systematically implemented payment alternatives for the benefit of its customer accounts while strengthening the bank's risk management infrastructure," said Chris Payne, the Image Processing Manager at Trustmark National Bank. "We are well-acquainted with CONIX Systems' risk management products and support services, and have full confidence in its ability to support our goals."

Fraud Detective applies user-defined fraud controls based on historical transaction data to incoming payments to determine whether they are typical or suspect transactions. Account activities that are indicators of kiting, account takeover, and other fraudulent activities are detected and routed for further decisioning. Fraud Detective shares the same infrastructure, including the same database, as CONIX Systems' Dupe Detective(R) product. Trustmark has relied on Dupe Detective since 2010 to protect against duplicate payments across its check and ACH operations, and with the addition of Fraud Detective, can now realize the advantages this combination brings. These advantages include the improved efficiency of a shared duplicate and fraud review process, combined workflows, and lower maintenance and hardware costs.

"Payment processing is a core banking service for which Trustmark is committed to providing vigilant monitoring and robust guardianship," said Payne. "Adding Fraud Detective to the bank's payment environment is an important component of our risk management strategy. We know from experience CONIX Systems stands behind its products and we believe this partnership will continue to benefit Trustmark well into the future."

"CONIX deeply appreciates the trust Trustmark has in our software and team," said CONIX's President and CEO, Mike Charles. "Our two organizations share a vision for a more secure and robust payments environment that benefits institutions, their account holders, and the banking industry."

"Trustmark Bank's selection of Fraud Detective bolsters its commitment to reducing operating costs on its expanding deposit base, safeguarding its payments operation, and delivering secure services and transactions to its account holders," said CONIX Managing Director of Sales, Steve Fortson.

Flathead Community Foundation claims title sponsorship for 2013 Montana Dragon Boat Festival

Author: Kalispell Convention and Visitor Bureau
Dateline: Kalispell, Montana (KALISPELL, Mont.)  | Thu, 28 Feb 2013

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “When the Flathead Community Foundation climbed on board as the title sponsor for the 2012 Montana Dragon Boat Festival, they knew they were in for a wild ride. After a rip-roaring success in 2012, including the $75,000 raised by local non-profits, the Flathead Community Foundation returns as this year's lead sponsor, it was announced today by the Kalispell Convention and Visitor Bureau.”



A R T I C L E:

When the Flathead Community Foundation climbed on board as the title sponsor for the 2012 Montana Dragon Boat Festival, they knew they were in for a wild ride. After a rip-roaring success in 2012, including the $75,000 raised by local non-profits, the Flathead Community Foundation returns as this year's lead sponsor, it was announced today by the Kalispell Convention and Visitor Bureau.

Working to pair local philanthropists and donations with area non-profits, the goal of the Flathead Community Foundation is to improve the quality of life in the Flathead, forever. The Montana Dragon Boat Festival, hosted by the Kalispell Convention and Visitors Bureau, first sparked the imagination of executive director, Lucy Smith, in early 2012. Smith, impressed with the event's potential to showcase the Flathead, also saw its possibilities for raising awareness of the Flathead Community Foundation and the non-profits it supports. The Foundation Board was on deck from the outset and it was Paddles Up! for Title Sponsorship.

"The Montana Dragon Boat Festival is a perfect fit for the Flathead Community Foundation because of the tremendous opportunity to showcase the Flathead Valley's greatest resources, from beautiful and pristine Flathead Lake, to thriving local businesses and institutions, to the many nonprofit organizations that serve our community," says Smith.

In order to follow through on the commitment to serve as title sponsor, the Flathead Community Foundation raised $10,000 to back the sponsorship. The sponsorship investment paid strong dividends in community awareness and funds raised for area non-profits participating in the event.

"The Flathead Community Foundation teamed with the Montana Dragon Boat Festival because of its potential benefit for area nonprofit organizations. Participating in this exciting, high visibility event creates a wonderful opportunity for organizations to raise money and awareness, involve volunteers, and have a blast doing it," Smith continues.

Non-profits across the Flathead Valley took on the challenge, with 20 entering teams or banding together with other groups to fill a boat. Among the ranks were Big Brothers Big Sisters of Flathead County, Dream Adaptive Recreation, and the Flathead Valley Hockey Association. Other visionary groups such as The Hockaday and A Ray of Hope helped round out the field, each recognizing the unique opportunity presented to highlight the contributions of their organization.

"The foundation of DREAM is that outdoor recreational activities enhance life for individuals with disabilities," shares executive director for DREAM, Cheri L. DuBeau. "Working together with people who believe in our mission and those who benefit from it in one of the world's most beautiful backdrops banded us together as a stronger team and helped spread the vision to new supporters."

The Flathead Valley Hockey Association leveraged the event to build team unity for their upcoming winter season. Team participants were so enthusiastic about its success that the association plans to enter two boats loaded with players - one recreational and one competitive - in 2013. Other non-profits also benefited financially with many raising between $2,000 and $7,000.

"The Montana Dragon Boat Festival creates a perfect metaphor for our community; we are all in the same boat together whether professional business services, non-profits, entrepreneurs, students, or philanthropists," said Smith. "When we align our different strengths and paddle together, we can move farther and faster than any one of us can do alone. That is the great joy, pride, and power in being a part of the Flathead and its Dragon Boat Festival."

In 2013, the Flathead Community Foundation will again host the Triple Threat, a trio of dragon boat racing teams open to nonprofits and individuals wishing to participate on a smaller scale and economy than organizing a 22-person dragon boat team. In addition to a place on the racing team, Triple Threat registration for the two-day event will include a signature team shirt and other adornments, special event raffle ticket, tent decorations and an optional donation to the Foundation's Flathead Fund for community grants and awards to area nonprofits.

For more information about the Flathead Community Foundation, contact Lucy Smith at 756-9047, or email lucy@flatheadcommunityfoundation.org. To register for the Triple Threat Team, go to www.flatheadcommunityfoundation.org and click on the Dragon Boat logo.

Southgate Surgery Center Offers Low- and No-Cost Colonoscopies to Uninsured for Greater Prevention of Colorectal Cancer

Author: Southgate Surgery Center
Dateline: Southgate, Michigan (SOUTHGATE, Mich.)  | Thu, 28 Feb 2013

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “Southgate Surgery Center announced that it is again offering its complimentary screening colonoscopy program throughout March, 2013. The facility will qualify 21 applicants from Michigan who need a screening colonoscopy are aged 50 or over, uninsured, severely financially distressed and cannot afford the procedure. The facility implements the program every March to promote National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month.”



A R T I C L E:

Southgate Surgery Center announced that it is again offering its complimentary screening colonoscopy program throughout March, 2013. The facility will qualify 21 applicants from Michigan who need a screening colonoscopy are aged 50 or over, uninsured, severely financially distressed and cannot afford the procedure. The facility implements the program every March to promote National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month.

"At most outpatient facilities, the physician, facility, anesthesia and laboratory fees could add up to $2,000 or more. An uninsured or 'cash-pay' patient would be required to pay 100 percent of the fee prior to their appointment - many people simply cannot afford it and would decline the potentially life-saving procedure. Our Colorectal Cancer Month program makes a difference for the underserved in our community and we are proud to offer it in conjunction with our physicians and suppliers," states Linda Phillips, R.N. and Administrator of Southgate Surgery Center.

For an uninsured person who does not qualify for the complimentary colonoscopy during colorectal cancer month, Southgate Surgery Center provides patients with the option of using ColonoscopyAssist(TM) - a national program that subsidizes a large portion of the fees for a colonoscopy. The patient pays $950 and can take advantage of a payment plan option.

"ColonoscopyAssist makes the screening colonoscopy accessible without compromising the quality of care," says, Dr. Husein Poonawala, Chief Medical Advisor at ColonoscopyAssist.

As colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S. and one of the only preventable cancers. Regular screenings are essential and recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and American Cancer Society. Providing lower-cost solutions for the uninsured and underinsured is an imperative for Southgate Surgery Center and ColonoscopyAssist(TM).

Application packages for a complimentary Colorectal Cancer Month screening colonoscopy are available for download at www.southgatesurgery.com. If computer access is not available, contact Southgate Surgery Center at (734) 281-0100 to request a package.

Reporting Sexual Assault to the Police in Jackson County IL (S.I.U. University) May Get You Arrested on Felony Charges

Author: Sexual Assault Myths Organization of Carbondale
Dateline: Carbondale, Illinois (CARBONDALE, Ill.)  | Tue, 26 Feb 2013

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “The Sexual Assault Myths Organization of Carbondale today launched an awareness campaign that explains that the Jackson County District Attorney, Mike Carr, has currently allegedly charged at least three people for reporting their sexual assault. The website and organization was formed by Larry Brunken a longtime resident of Jackson County because of what he says has destroyed his wife's life.”



A R T I C L E:

The Sexual Assault Myths Organization of Carbondale today launched an awareness campaign that explains that the Jackson County District Attorney, Mike Carr, has currently allegedly charged at least three people for reporting their sexual assault. The website and organization was formed by Larry Brunken a longtime resident of Jackson County because of what he says has destroyed his wife's life.

"My wife was arrested for reporting an alleged violent sexual assault by someone she knew for almost ten years. Through discovery and court subpoenas we found the Jackson County Sheriffs office did no investigation of the accused and ignored all parts of the 'Illinois Sexual Assault Guideline And Manual For Law Enforcement' published since 1996," says Brunken.

"The manual clearly states the procedure Officer Marks was duty bound to follow but allegedly choose not to. Moreover, court subpoenas prove the person accused of the assault statement to the police was a complete lie, which is a felony, yet he is still the state's only witness. There are several state and national sexual assault support groups looking into this policy which now has gained national attention."

Mr. Brunken goes on to explain that, "More disturbing is the fact that the evidence put forth by the state as 'consent' to the alleged assault, are Facebook chats between my wife and the accused. Also, the accused turned over pictures of the assault from a website profile he created to broadcast the alleged sexual assault. He told the police he would turn over his computers and cameras with all the videos taken but later refused and then destroyed them while under subpoena. The pictures of the assault used as evidence against my wife show her naked and crying while being pinched, slapped, and beat by the accused on his web-cam so long bruises had already formed.

"The police choose to ignore this abuse and do no investigation as mandated in state guidelines. Instead, Assistant District Attorney Casey Bloodworth, apparently decided that the pictures somehow show 'consent' and refused to do any investigation. This is a direct violation of the Illinois Laws Of Consent (720 ILCS 5/11-1.70) as well as Illinois Criminal Sexual Assault Act. Of 1984 and of course federal law."

According to Brunken, newly elected District Attorney Mike Carr continues the policy of arresting sexually assaulted victims, even when Illinois laws of consent could not be more clear on the subject. Furthermore, for Mike Carr to assert that someone's consent can be shown in pictures which contain violent sexual abuse is absurd, and a clear "free pass" for sexual offenders in our county.

It's not just state and federal laws being ignored but also national manuals like, "Prosecuting Alcohol-Facilitated Sexual Assault," printed and distributed by the National District Attorney Association along with the American Prosecutors Research Institute. Within the 76 pages it explains clearly how a prosecutor should handle this and all sexual assaults involving date rape, drugs and alcohol.

All procedures listed were completely ignored in this case by our local district attorneys office, says Brunken.

"We urge anyone who has been charged in Jackson County for reporting sexual assault to visit our website at www.SexualAssaultMyths.com and submit us your story. On the site you will find copies of the above mentioned guidelines and laws along with more information about rape myths from Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan," Brunken adds.

One fact listed on the site is that less than 4 percent to 6 percent of rape reports are false. Another is that "non-stranger rape" accounts for 85 percent of all rape reports. The most disturbing information listed is a quote from UMass Boston psychology professor David Lisak in an interview with the Boston Globe where he states "non-stranger rapist are know to be serial offenders often using drugs to facilitate their crimes for years."

Brunken concludes: "Please be aware that if you or your loved ones are brave enough to report a sexual assault here in Jackson County you can be charged with a felony if Mike Carr feels the report is false."

April is sexual assault awareness month.

NOTE: The Carbondale Women's Center has also issued a press release about this policy of charging victims and we encourage everyone to read it as well (available on the website). Learn more at: http://www.SexualAssaultMyths.com/ .

Los Angeles-Based Mortgage Lender Lauds LendingQB for LOS Implementation Success

Author: LendingQB
Dateline: Costa Mesa, California (COSTA MESA, Calif.)  | Tue, 26 Feb 2013

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “LendingQB, a provider of end-to-end loan origination software, announced today that they successfully implemented their web-based, mortgage lending platform for OGI Mortgage Bankers, a fast-growing mortgage lender based in Los Angeles. Within seven weeks of signing a contract, OGI was able to launch and begin using a fully custom configured LendingQB platform immediately.”



A R T I C L E:

LendingQB, a provider of end-to-end loan origination software, announced today that they successfully implemented their web-based, mortgage lending platform for OGI Mortgage Bankers, a fast-growing mortgage lender based in Los Angeles. Within seven weeks of signing a contract, OGI was able to launch and begin using a fully custom configured LendingQB platform immediately.

"Since I stepped in this business 25 years ago, I've never seen an implementation happen so quickly and thoroughly," said Harry Oh, president and CEO of OGI. "We made the decision to use LendingQB right before New Year's Day but we didn't expect to start using the system until after Easter. Being ahead of schedule saves us more than time and effort, it saves us money."

OGI is like many modern mortgage bankers in that they wanted to simplify their technology by replacing outdated client-installed software with a web-based system. "When we started the company in 2009, we bought a whole system - software, hardware, networking equipment - and spent an entire year getting it setup. It cost us a lot of money just to configure and learn how to use the system," said Oh. "Then our vendor got acquired. That's when we realized we had the wrong approach to technology. We're a mortgage lender, not an IT company. We don't need to own everything."

In response, Oh actively began looking exclusively for web-based LOS providers. Although only a handful of mortgage LOS vendors offer a true web-based system, OGI felt it was a better long-term strategy. "We see other industries enjoying the benefits of web-based applications, so to us it's a proven model," Oh noted. "But we didn't make any compromises in order to get a web-based system. Price, quality and service still matter."

OGI selected LendingQB after a thorough evaluation process, which included testing with a live production system for an entire month. Oh cautioned that live testing was critical to their decision process. "We already went through a failed implementation so we didn't want any surprises," said Oh. "What did surprise us, however, was how quickly LendingQB handled our deployment and implementation."

LendingQB takes all new clients through a comprehensive deployment process that is unlike anything Oh had seen before. "The day after we signed with LendingQB, their deployment team was sending us emails and scheduling meetings," Oh said. LendingQB started with a detailed workflow discussion of OGI's operations, and then provided them with an online tool to track task assignments and deployment status updates. "They were involved with our implementation at the ground level, gathering information from us and making changes to our system directly."

After seven weeks of aggressively implementing the platform, OGI's staff was fully trained and ready to start working in the LendingQB environment. "When I think back to our first system and the amount of time and resources we poured into purchasing it and getting it setup, it's night and day," remarked Oh. "LendingQB is like a part of my staff. They set milestones and kept us on track and prioritized. They did most of the configuration for us and responded quickly to any changes we wanted to make. Their organization and commitment to us was impressive."

Mountain Home Care Celebrates 10 Year Record of Service, Commitment to Home and Geriatric Care

Author: Mountain Home Care
Dateline: Arden, North Carolina (ARDEN, N.C.)  | Tue, 26 Feb 2013

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “When self-described worker bee Lana Wilde became an empty nester, she turned her open heart and gift for volunteer care giving into a one-of-a-kind family business. Ten years later, Mountain Home Care celebrates a decade of quality care offered in service to other western North Carolina families who need a helping hand during an extended illness.”



A R T I C L E:

When self-described "worker bee" Lana Wilde became an empty nester, she turned her open heart and gift for volunteer care giving into a one-of-a-kind family business. Ten years later, Mountain Home Care celebrates a decade of quality care offered in service to other western North Carolina families who need a helping hand during an extended illness.

Mountain Home Care remains a recognized leader in private home care and geriatric care management since it was founded in 2003.

Wilde still remembers the phone call from her husband Jim Wilde, then an executive with long-time Weaverville corporation SonaPress, now Arvado. Traveling on business, he read an article about the fastest growing home businesses. One of those growth areas, non-medical senior home care, described his wife "to a T."

"It had Lana written all over it," she recalls him saying excitedly.

That moment seemed a really long way from 1999 and that empty nest "and nothing that's mine to do," recalls Wilde. Always a person who takes care of folks, she would reach out to older, infirm individuals, making them chicken soup or taking them to the doctor. As her parents were aging, they began to have major issues. By 2000 she was caring for her father, and in 2001, she became his advocate in his medical care. After he passed away, leaving her mother by herself in Charleston, road trips became increasingly frequent - sometimes just to have a prescription refilled.

She began to think about hiring someone to help with her mother's care. Not the important things, but the everyday routines. When the family couldn't find what they needed, her mother went to live with her sister. That was 2003. At the same time, Jim's mother came to live in their home. Her brother also had his mother in law living in his home.

"We have it in our blood," she says.

Convinced her family was not alone, Lana left her job as a corporate recruiter and started her business in the basement of the family home with one client and one caregiver, and "grandma" in the mother-in-law suite. She invested in training from The Senior's Choice, a turnkey business model, which offered her the foundation and infrastructure she knew she would need, a decision she's never had reason to regret. The Articles of Incorporation were filed on April 17, 2003.

From there, she and her son, Jeremy, who left his corporate job in sales and marketing to help build the business, worked every aspect from the ground up. They did visits, intake, and payroll. They sat with clients in the middle of the night, replaced absent employees. They asked a lot of questions, and learned by doing. By 2009, their efforts were rewarded when Mountain Home Care became one of the first companies to acquire licensure in the home care field from the state of North Carolina following a two-year moratorium.

Ten years later, Wilde misses the daily client contact, just being there, holding hands, providing a soothing presence. But she's grateful for the success that's the product of hard work, blood, sweat and tears. Hers is truly a family business, where family reaches out to family on a daily basis, and clients get what they need. Often, the Mountain Home Care team supplements palliative or hospice care, providing a heightened level of personal assistance on the client's team.

"We are what you get," she says, "we take care of the things other care providers don't."

Mountain Home Care - www.mountainhomecare.com - is located in Arden, N.C., and serves home and geriatric care clients throughout western North Carolina.
