As November arrives, we’re reminded to slow down, reflect, and appreciate how far we’ve come, both individually and as a team.
This season naturally brings a sense of gratitude, and I want to take a moment to thank each of you for the dedication, collaboration, and resilience you’ve shown throughout the year. Your efforts—whether driving new initiatives, solving challenges, or supporting one another—are what keep our momentum strong and our mission moving forward.
As we enter the final stretch of the year, let’s carry that same focus and energy into the weeks ahead. Together, we can close out the year on a high note and continue building on the success we’ve achieved so far.
Thank you for all that you do, and I wish you and your families a safe and meaningful Thanksgiving season.

COMPANY EVENT – FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 28 |
Last month, Matt Edwards, Chris Moran, Rich Keirn, Sara Willis, and Barb Levay attended the two-day HME News Business Summit.
The event offered valuable insights from industry experts, engaging networking opportunities, and forward-thinking discussions about the challenges and innovations shaping the HME landscape.
We’re proud to have GEMCO Medical and EHCS represented at this impactful event — connecting with other industry leaders and sharing ideas to help shape the future of home medical equipment and healthcare. |
For the second year in a row, GEMCORE is partnering with Summit Family and Children’s Services to bring extra holiday joy to local families in need. We invite you to join us in fulfilling the wish lists of children from our adopted families this season!
How to Participate:
-
Choose a Gift Tag – Stop by the tree in the lobby near Superman and pick a tag. Each tag lists a child’s name and a suggested gift idea.
