Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Hello Hanger Banders, I have a favor to ask of you if you all have time. Would you check the Helmet/Band Database in the Database section of the group and see if your facility is listed? If it isn't, please feel free to add it, post the info, or email me, and I will add it myself. It can also be a great comfort to other parents researching banding options to be able to communicate with someone else who used a particular facility. There is a field in the Helmet/Band Database for group members to add their own email address, to be available for contact offlist about a particular facility. You can add your email yourself, if you are willing to be contacted, or just let me know, and I'll add your email info to the appropriate facility listing. Information such as general impression and ortho training might be some variables that a plagio parent would want to weigh when evaluating options, and being able to email another person regarding this is very helpful. When I spoke to the Hanger rep some time ago, she told me that there are over 600 Hanger locations, but that only a minority would offer cranial banding, and a much smaller minority than that would be a facility with some experience with cranial bands. She couldn't or was not allowed to give me a list of Hanger banding locations, unfortunately. We really rely on contribution of information from our group members, so I would appreciate any help in this area! Thank you so much for any help, Christie (Mom to Repo'd Remy) > > > I talked to Hanger today, and The man I talked to > > was very nice and > > he > > > new his info.
