This year we started a multi-media internship program with the idea of producing films that relate to our industry. The original idea was to produce films raising awareness for things like long-term care and the Sandwich Generation, Baby Boomers aging into Medicare, etc. This past May, I was introduced to Monica Quimby. Monica is Ms. Wheelchair Maine and she was calling to ask if Blue Goose would become a sponsor to help her go to the Ms… Read more >>>

Creating awareness is one of the… Read more >>>

We will be filming through the end of July, but here is a preview to get you excited about the full production. Please share with your friends and… Read more >>>
