GlobalMed ‘Likes’ to Help Migrant Clinicians Network

Telemedicine solutions company will donate a TotalExam Camera in Facebook campaign.

Scottsdale, Arizona (September 26, 2011) – GlobalMed – the leading telemedicine design, manufacturing and marketing company headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona – has come up with a novel way to introduce one of its new Facebook pages by giving the general public the opportunity to help it donate a TotalExam™2 Examination Camera to a worthy cause. 

The campaign has a simple premise.  As soon as the TotalExam Facebook page reaches 4,000 “Likes,” GlobalMed will donate a TotalExam camera to the Migrant Clinicians Network (MCN), based in Austin, Texas.  Clinicians working in migrant health started the non-profit MCN in 1984.  Today, the organization has grown to more than 5,000 constituents and is a force for justice in healthcare to the mobile poor.

“Our position as the leader in the telemedicine marketplace brings with it great responsibility to help provide access to quality healthcare to those who often do without,” said Joel E. Barthelemy, GlobalMed Managing Director.  “All of us at GlobalMed are excited that the MCN is deploying our technology to serve their very mobile population.”

“Clinicians who serve migrant patients often find themselves both geographically and professionally isolated,” said Karen Mountain, MCN CEO. “Resources such as the TotalExam Camera can provide an important lifeline to specialty resources and cutting edge information, and MCN is excited to partner with GlobalMed to provide this resource to clinicians in the field.”

TotalExam’s ease of use, ergonomic design and image clarity make it the best examination camera available.   GlobalMed designed TotalExam to deliver crystal clear close-ups of skin and eyes from 2.5 centimeters away, as well as unparalleled images of the throat, palate and gums.  The S-Video camera has a USB adaptor for use with a laptop or tablet computer.
