CareFlash... Community when it matters most

Challenges Entered: 
To effect this change, CareFlash provides people the ability to interact through a framework to manage all of the moving parts where healthcare circumstances present themselves to a person and their community. Cancer Today alone, 5,400 people in the U.S. learned that they have been diagnosed with cancer. 21 million are currently battling diabetes. 10% of people aged 60 years old have Alzheimer's... and this figure grows exponentially as the 80 million baby boomers continue to age. Across the board, the numbers are scary. CareFlash works through healthcare advocacy groups to assist them in serving people based on the specific circumstances at hand.
