GraVoc Showcases Health & Recovery Application at Tradeshow

On Friday, GraVoc sent three representatives to the Association for Behavioral Healthcare (formerly the Mental Health and Substance Abuse Corporations of Massachusetts) 10th Anniversary Provider Celebration.  At the ABH expo, GraVoc promoted GHR, a comprehensive bed management software designed for inpatient health and recovery service providers similar to many attendees of the event.

Like many of the GraVoc Software products, this solution was designed based on customer input regarding their needs and which key processes must be streamlined with this software.  This was GraVoc’s first time attending this event, and many representatives of health and recovery organizations from throughout Massachusetts were impressed by GHR’s functionality.  The application was designed with the goals of a quick learning curve and ease of use.

GHR handles occupancy management, admission processing, management of billing processes (including care that falls under health insurance and care that does not fall under health insurance), discharge management, client history inquiry, and reporting.  With GHR, a behavior health facility will be able to waste less time on administrative tasks and instead spend that time caring for their patients.  More information about GHR, including screen shots of the application, are available on the GraVoc Software website.

GraVoc Attends PACC Business Expo

GraVoc shared a booth at the tradeshow with marketing consultant Divergingsoul Media Production, who also impressed attendees with its variety of digital media service offerings.  Attendees were encouraged to visit the GraVoc booth by the chance to win a portable media player.  Congratulations to Colleen Derrivan of Phil Richard & Associates Insurance, who won the raffle.

At the conclusion of the event, the Chamber of Commerce presented a panel of seven members who used non-traditional techniques to market their products or services.  Dan Vassallo represented GraVoc on the “7 Experts, 7 Tips, 7 Minutes” panel, explaining how the GraVoc News Blog has heightened GraVoc’s web presence and search engine optimization.  It is now easier for businesses looking for a Boston-area, North Shore, or Peabody technology consulting firm or Microsoft Dynamics partner to find GraVoc and learn more about the services the business provides.  Dan has received comments from competitors, vendors, and customers about how the blog has made the firm appear to really be on top of relevant issues.  It also lets customers know what is new with the business.

Marsh Leads Team at JDRF Walk

GraVoc senior associate Stefanie Marsh led a tremendous fundraising effort at the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) Seacoast Walk held Sunday September 27th.  An active member of the foundation’s New Hampshire Seacoast chapter, Marsh joined over 500 other walkers in the event, which was held despite a second consecutive year of foul weather.

Marsh’s team, “Zack’s Pack,” is named for her son Zachary, who is affected by diabetes.  Over 15,000 children are diagnosed annually with juvenile diabetes, and while treatment for the condition has improved substantially in the past decade or so, there is no cure.  Due to the generous support of family and friends, Zack’s Pack alone raised over $4,000 for diabetes research.

GraVoc Associates, Inc, a Peabody, MA-based consulting firm specializing in the practices of information systems, professional services, and information security, is proud of Stefanie’s achievements and her dedication toward community service and the JDRF.  For more information about GraVoc, visit www.GraVoc.com, and for more information about the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, please visit jdrf.org.

Congratulating One Employee, Welcoming Another

Part of the buzz surrounding GraVoc Associates’ fifteenth anniversary party last month was the fact that the company was celebrating its first retirement.  Yesterday it became official, as office manager Patricia Kulakowski stepped down from her post at the front of the GraVoc building.

Pat had worked in this capacity at GraVoc since 1996, and she will be celebrating her retirement by taking a trip to Aruba with her husband next week.  The entire GraVoc staff congratulates Pat on her milestone and sincerely appreciates her many years of service and contributions while at the company.

Pat will be replaced by fellow Peabody native Connie Leaver, who began working full-time at GraVoc last week.  Having previously worked in both the insurance and in the banking industries, Connie is eager to bring a unique view to the consulting firm.  The GraVoc organization warmly welcomes Connie and encourages customers to greet her kindly the next time they call or stop by.
