“We are pleased to support this and we recognize the unique and innovative work that Presbyterian Home does in helping people with movement disorders, particularly with this telemedicine program, which enables people with impaired or excess movement to interact with highly qualified specialists without having to endure the lengthy travel involved,” Michael Austin, chairman of the Utica National Group Foundation, said in a release.
