HME Awareness Institute

Profile

HME News and Access 180, co-producers of The HME Exposition & Conference, unveiled the plans for the newly formed HME Awareness Institute. The HME Awareness Institute will operate as a non-branded promotional campaign for the HME Industry to raise awareness with consumers and elected legislative officials.

With the formation of the HME Awareness Institute, the group has started the search for a public relations firm to develop and execute on the plan to provide a “new face” for the consumer media of what the HME Industry offers in terms of product innovation and patient care.
