The CareGiver Partnership Offers Doorstep Delivery of Adult Diapers and Incontinence Supplies

Thursday, November 15th, 2012

Neenah, Wis. (PRWEB) November 14, 2012

The CareGiver Partnership, a national retailer of incontinence products and other home health care supplies, is addressing the needs of incontinent Americans by offering doorstep delivery on any of its products, with free shipping year-round on orders $ 50+. Founder Lynn Wilson says it?s a convenient alternative to making frequent store trips for adult diapers, wipes, bed pads, bladder control pads and other incontinence supplies.

?With 25 million Americans with transient or chronic urinary incontinence ? including 50 percent of elderly who are homebound ? doorstep delivery is especially convenient for those unable to travel to stores and for family caregivers,? says Wilson. ?Costs can be higher than discount stores, but caregivers tell us when they consider the free home delivery, never running out, the high cost of gas today and the value of their time, it?s worth it.

?In addition, it?s difficult to get answers in stores. Stock clerks often are uninformed and pharmacists are busy behind the counter. Our team is extremely knowledgeable about all the 500 incontinence products we offer ? 10 times more than most stores ? and being out of stock does not happen, unlike stores,? says Wilson. ?First-time buyers often have no idea which product is right for them. Many spend over $ 100 trying bags of products that don?t meet their needs and then settle. That?s why we offer more than 100 products to try before you buy.?

The CareGiver Partnership, rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau, is designed around safety, security and ease. Although it carries 3,000 home health care products, the site?s large pages and absence of clutter and advertisements make it easy to shop, set up an account and order. Free caregiver resources include its first-to-the-world Incontinence Product Finder and thousands of links and articles. The site makes it easy to set up automatically scheduled doorstep delivery, with a patent-pending product-use estimation tool.

The CareGiver Partnership was formed in 2004 by the former global sector president of Kimberly-Clark, who led the development of Depend and Poise incontinence products. It is now led by co-founder Lynn Wilson and a team of women who are current or former caregivers. The company?s offerings go beyond home health care products to include personal service and a library of resources and information for family caregivers, including a blog.

?Thousands of caregivers and their family members count on us for fast, convenient and reliable delivery of incontinence supplies,? Wilson adds.

The CareGiver Partnership is a national direct-to-consumer retailer of home healthcare products for incontinence, skin care, mobility, daily living aids, nutrition support and more. In its sixth year of providing products and services that help caregivers and loved ones maintain personal dignity, the company also offers an online library of more than 1,200 family caregiver resources and personal service by experts in caregiving.

“Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage” Exhibition to Open at the Georgia O?Keeffe Museum, February 2013

Thursday, November 15th, 2012


Santa Fe, NM (PRWEB) November 13, 2012

The Georgia O?Keeffe Museum announces its first exhibition of 2013, entitled Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage which will open February 15, 2013. The exhibition opening will be preceded by a talk that Leibovitz will present about her work on February 12, 2013 at 6:00 pm MST at the Lensic Performing Arts Center.

The show charts a new direction for one of America?s best-known living photographers. Unlike her staged and carefully lit portraits made on assignment for magazines and advertising clients, the photographs in this exhibition were taken simply because Leibovitz was moved by the subject.

The pictures, while not containing people, are in a certain sense portraits of subjects that have shaped Leibovitz?s distinctly American view of her cultural inheritance. Visiting the homes of iconic figures, including O?Keeffe, Eleanor Roosevelt, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Pete Seeger and Elvis Presley, as well as places such as Niagara Falls, Walden Pond, Old Faithful and the Yosemite Valley, she let her instincts and intuitions guide her to related subjects?hence the title ?Pilgrimage.? The images speak in a commonplace language to the photographer?s curiosity about the world she inherited, spanning landscapes both dramatic and quiet, interiors of living rooms and bedrooms, and objects that are talismans of past lives.

The exhibition, which includes about 70 photographs taken between April 2009 and May 2011, is making a national tour to 8 museums (a full list and dates can be found here), which started in January 2012 at the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

?Annie Leibovitz?s Pilgrimage is much like Georgia O?Keeffe?s work in that it captures a place in time with such evocative power and emotion that you cannot help but feel the connection, the deep sense of place,? said Rob Kret, director of the Georgia O?Keeffe Museum. ?We are honored to have her work here and feel that it truly commemorates and complements the ongoing ?Georgia O?Keeffe and the Faraway: Nature and Image? exhibition with paintings and photographs of O?Keeffe?s most beloved and inspiring locations in the Southwest.?

?From the beginning, when I was watching my children stand mesmerized over Niagara Falls, this project was an exercise in renewal,? said Leibovitz. ?It taught me to see again.?

Pilgrimage is an evocative and deeply personal statement by a photographer whose career now spans more than 40 years, encompassing a broad range of subject matter, history and stylistic influences. Together the pictures show Leibovitz at the height of her powers, unfettered by the demands of her career and pondering how photographs, including her own, shape a narrative of history that informs the present.

THE TALK: Leibovitz will discuss her work Friday February 12, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. at the Lensic Performing Arts Center in downtown Santa Fe. Tickets will be available from at http://www.lensic.org or 505-988-1234.

THE BOOK: The accompanying book, published by Random House, includes an introduction by noted historian Doris Kearns Goodwin. Pilgrimage is available for purchase ($ 50) at bookstores nationwide and the museum?s store.

Annie Leibovitz: Pilgrimage was organized by the Smithsonian American Art Museum. The Bernie Stadiem Endowment Fund provided support for the exhibition. The C.F. Foundation in Atlanta supports the museum’s traveling exhibition program, Treasures to Go.
