March 2008

The Herald-Mail Company will be hosting its 1st annual Health & Wellness Conference on Saturday, March 15, 2008 at the Valley Mall in Hagerstown, Maryland. The fair is open from 10am to 2pm.

Ability's Wendy Carter, CFom (Certified Fitter Orthotics and post-Mastectomy) will be exhibiting at the event. "This is a great opportunity to create awareness," explains Carter, "Participating in local health and wellness fairs always leads to increased education. By educating others about their prosthetic, orthotic and post-mastectomy services, we are fulfilling one of Ability's missions."

Since receiving her certification last year, Wendy has seen an increased demand for post-mastectomy products and services across the Hagerstown, Gettysburg and Frederick regions. "People just don't know where to receive services such as breast forms," says Carter, "We have spent a considerable amount of time marketing our services to both patients and physicians."
