Scores of residents turned out for the introduction of the new Plush Mills Health Care Consortium on April 21. The Consortium offers on-site health and personal services to residents of Plush Mills through more than a dozen organizations, including a new preferred relationship with the primary care physicians of Crozer-Keystone Center for Geriatric Medicine Services.

With this array of services, the Consortium offers coordinated care, convenience of delivery, and a community-within-a-community to residents. At the launch, Plush Mills Executive Director Megan Longley commented, "These providers can save our residents a great deal of time and travel by taking care of many of their needs right ehre at home. Offering coordinating, convenient care is another way in which we've created a community within our community."

After meeting Consortium physicians in the theatre, attendees enjoyed a health fair, where they met 14 other medical service providers who will be available to them in-house - from Fox Rehab to Crozer Keystone Center for Geriatric Medicine, from Concord Pharmacy to Rose Tree Holistic Health.

Rounding out the afternoon event, there were also healthy refreshments and a table full of raffle prizes.
