In The Event Produces 2012 Zero Fatalities Safety Summit


Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) October 29, 2012

Salt Lake City based event design firm, In The Event, teamed up with the organizations involved in Utahs Zero Fatalities Safety Summit to develop a fresh approach to the conference, accommodating for the influx of attendees with a new location, new look and new perspective. The Zero Fatalities Safety Summit was held at South Towne Exposition Center from October 25 to 26, with a pre-conference held on the 24th. Zero Fatalities is the result of combined efforts from various agencies, state departments and organizations to save lives on Utahs roads. The public education program developed for the Utah Department of Transportation focuses on the top behaviors killing people in car accidents. The campaign seeks to educate in order to prevent these behaviors and unite Utah drives in their common goal of diminishing traffic fatalities.

The Zero Fatalities Safety Summit was, of course, something we were eager to be involved in. We felt we could design a new look and feel for the summit using our unique inventory to help further propel the goals of the conference, says Robert LaSpina, In The Event Co-Founder and Vice President. In The Event utilized their video towers to showcase the events sponsors and display Zero Fatalities videos, which assisted in bringing the stories of the campaign to life, continues LaSpina. In The Event also utilized chalk walls and a hot topic lounge, complete with their black and white leather furniture and wireless LED coffee and side tables, to encourage engagement and conversation at the summit. The tops of the coffee tables and side tables had custom graphics with word bubbles filled with driving safety issues. The text included words such as seat belts and drowsy driving, in order to incite attendees to deliberate on these issues inherent to the Zero Fatalities campaign. Additionally, In The Events chalk walls were used the encourage further discussion of the Zero Fatalities issues. Each chalk wall had a graphic cling at the top with one of the conference sponsors logos and a question related to that specific organization. Event registration also had custom graphics to match the Zero Fatalities look.

In The Event worked closely with Penna Powers Brian Haynes ad agency to ensure cohesion in the event design and promotion process. PPBH is the ad agency responsible for marketing and promotion of the Zero Fatalities program. The agency develops strategic partnerships and TV and radio spots impressing upon the importance of safe driving. The program is built upon the idea that the only number of traffic fatalities we can all live with is zero. The campaign has been extremely effective, with decreases seen in drowsy driving fatalities, aggressive driving fatalities, lack of seat belt usage and more. The Zero Fatalities Safety Summit brings together all of the organizations supporting the program to further educate and increase awareness about it.

ACR Electronics Introduces SurvivorClub. Survivors to Promote Safety with Personal Rescue Stories


Fort Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) October 02, 2012

ACR Electronics is pleased to announce the new ACR ARTEX Survivor Club, http://www.survivorclub.com, where membership definitely has its rewards. SurvivorClub.com provides those who have used an ACR 406 MHz Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB), Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) or an ARTEX 406 MHz Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) in an emergency with an opportunity to share their stories, trade-in their used beacon for a new one and to be included on the companys Wall of Fame.

We see SurvivorClub.com as building a forum that will promote a very important public service message that satellite detectible 406 MHz beacons are the ultimate way out of trouble, and literally are saving lives somewhere around the planet nearly every day, said Michael Wilkerson, CEO of ACR Electronics, Inc and ARTEX.

Since the inception of the Cospas-Sarsat Search and Rescue program in 1982, electronic beacons transmitting distress signals have resulted in over 30,000 people rescued worldwide (6,800-plus in the U.S.)

Survivor Club membership, according to Wilkerson, is open to all those who have activated an ACR or ARTEX beacon in an emergency. However, anyone activating a beacon in an emergency after October 1, 2012 has the added benefit of receiving a new replacement beacon in exchange for the beacon used in the rescue. Survivor Club members can share their experiences online and see the beacon used in their rescue memorialized on ACRs Wall of Fame with a plaque along with their picture.

An important aspect of keeping boaters, aviators and outdoor enthusiasts safe is educating them on the lifesaving benefits of having access to a 406 MHz distress beacon, said Wilkerson. Not only will the beacon greatly improve their chances of survival, but it also greatly reduces the risk to the brave men and women searching for them. Who better to promote this safety message than survivors who have actually been rescued.

When appropriate, Wilkerson said ACR ARTEX will also honor new Survivor Club inductees at upcoming boating, outdoors and aviation shows as well as acknowledge those retailers where the beacons were originally purchased.

Aging Safely Walk In Bathtubs Offers Safety Solutions for Seniors and has Announced a Low Price Guarantee Nationally for Hydrotherapy Walk in Safety Tubs


Louisville, CO (PRWEB) July 25, 2012

Innovations in walkin bathtub technology from Aging Safely have made accessible bathtubs more affordable for seniors and people with limited mobility. The company has instituted a low price guarantee that assures customers of the lowest available price anywhere on walk bathtubs. This guarantee extends to people who have received a recommendation from their doctors to seek warm air hydrotherapy for relief from arthritis, back pain, poor lower-body circulation and other chronic health conditions.

Unlike a conventional bathtub that has solid sides and necessitates lifting the legs over the lip of the tub and bending to sit or lie in it, a walkin bathtub is fitted with an opening that allows the bather to move into the bath without stretching, kneeling or bending. An opening in the side of the tub permits easy access, forming a water-tight seal when shut. Because these tubs require less physical effort to enter and offer more support during the bath, they allow people with reduced mobility or chronic pain to enjoy a warm bath more readily. Many models have features such as hydrotherapy jets, whirlpools and wheelchair accessibility. All models are included in the Aging Safely low price guarantee.

Although cleanliness is vital for overall good health, bathing can become a challenging or even dangerous task when age, chronic disorders or accidents limit mobility. According to the National Safety Council, an average of one person a day dies in the shower or bath due to falls. Mobility devices can offer assistance throughout other aspects of the daily routine, but bathing presents its own set of difficulties because conventional tubs provide little support. Safety baths are designed to support the bather and dramatically reduce the possibility of falls while entering and exiting the tub.

Owners of safety baths cite safety, comfort and enhanced independence as primary motivators for buying their walk bathtubs. When bathing becomes safer, it is no longer necessary to have assistance during a bath; the walkin bathtub itself provides essential support. Safety tubs feature shaped and molded interiors that make bathing more comfortable for those with mobility limitations. Hand-rails and non-slip surfaces provide a greater feeling of security and peace of mind as well as physical comfort, said many users of walk-in tubs.

Sports medicine specialists have long recommended hydrotherapy to injured athletes, but hydrotherapeutic baths can also benefit people with limited mobility. Warm water may ease the pain of fibromyalgia, sciatica, lumbar back pain and other chronic conditions that respond poorly to medication. Because the body feels weightless in water, a bath relieves pressure on hips and knees affected by osteoarthritis. Bathing can help reduce inflammation and edema for those who suffer from these conditions. Hydrotherapy can also stimulate increased blood flow to the lower extremities. For people who have diabetes or circulatory conditions that reduce circulation in the lower legs and feet, warm water can be part of a physical therapy regimen.

Aging Safely brings these benefits to a wider range of clients by offering a large selection of walk bathtubs at guaranteed low prices.
