Employees Deliver 500 Care Packages to Dialysis Patients Posted by Modivcare in Community Service, DCI Clinics, Dialysis, Giving Back, Kidney Disease, Blog, member stories, National Kidney Foundation, patient story on Dec 21, 2017 9:24:22 PM 2 Comments On Wednesday, December 20, 2017, Team LogistiCare came together again for the last installment of our first official LogistiCare Service Day which kicked off last week with [excellent guest speakers and prepping care packages](https://www.logisticare.com/logisticare-gives-back-service-day-fighting-kidney-disease/). ![Employees Packing packages for Delivery](https://www.logisticare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Team-packing-care-packages.jpg?width=650&height=350&name=Team-packing-care-packages.jpg) This time LogistiCare volunteers gathered in our corporate office at 8:00 AM to load boxes, carrying 500 care packages, into three vehicles to be distributed at seven dialysis clinics throughout Atlanta. The day started out clear but soon it began to rain.  But rain was no damper to LogistiCare – rain, sleet or snow, Team LogistiCare was ready to get these care packages into the hands of the dialysis patients that need a little comfort this time of year. ![Delivering in the Rain](https://www.logisticare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Team-packing-care-packages-2.jpg?width=650&height=350&name=Team-packing-care-packages-2.jpg) The first vehicle set out to two [DCI clinics](http://www.dciinc.org/) in south Atlanta to distribute 82 care packages.  While making these deliveries, LogistiCare teammates had the honor of meeting three amazing patients that shared their appreciation for the care packages which were specially designed by LogistiCare and the [National Kidney Foundation](https://www.kidney.org/) to cater to a dialysis patient’s specific needs.  Each care package included a blanket, squeezy kidney, water bottle, key chain/pill case, coloring book and pencils, and more. ![DCI Clinic Delivery Day](https://www.logisticare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/dci-clinic-delivery-day-2.jpg?width=650&height=350&name=dci-clinic-delivery-day-2.jpg) The second vehicle carried 111 care packages to two DCI clinics. LogistiCare teammates were not deterred by the torrential downpour and flash flood warnings, nor by the fact that they were drenched from head to toe!  Seeing the smiles on the patient’s faces was the only rainbow we needed on this rainy day.  At one of these clinics a patient gleefully exclaimed “This entire bag is for me?  Thank you LogistiCare, this is a wonderful holiday gift!” ![Shadaka on Delivery Day](https://www.logisticare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Shadaka-on-delivery-day.jpg?width=650&height=350&name=Shadaka-on-delivery-day.jpg) The third vehicle had the largest load of 307 care packages going to two DCI clinics and one [Fresenius Medical Care](https://fmcna.com/) clinic.  While delivering care packages to these clinics LogistiCare teammates had the added bonus of running into two of our guest speakers from last week’s LogistiCare Service Day Community Conversation featuring NKF:  Dr. Fisher and Shadaka.  What a treat it was to see both of them again! ![Dr. Fisher at Delivery](https://www.logisticare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/dr-fisher-on-delivery-day.jpg?width=650&height=350&name=dr-fisher-on-delivery-day.jpg) At the end of all the deliveries Team LogistiCare dried off, high-fived one another and went right back to work managing transportation to and from medical appointments for those members we serve each and every day across the country. It’s a good feeling to provide access to healthcare for those most in need, and equally rewarding to go above-and-beyond to give back to the communities we serve.  Every ride and every member matters.   [mailto:?subject=Rain,%20Sleet%20or%20Snow,%20LogistiCare%20delivers!%20Employees%20Deliver%20500%20Care%20Packages%20to%20Dialysis%20Patients&body=:%20https://www.logisticare.com/blog/rain-sleet-snow-logisticare-delivers-employees-deliver-500-care-packages-dialysis-patients](mailto:?subject=Rain,%20Sleet%20or%20Snow,%20LogistiCare%20delivers!%20Employees%20Deliver%20500%20Care%20Packages%20to%20Dialysis%20Patients&body=:%20https://www.logisticare.com/blog/rain-sleet-snow-logisticare-delivers-employees-deliver-500-care-packages-dialysis-patients) [ How does a call center become the Best of the Best?→](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/how-does-a-call-center-become-the-best-of-the-best) [←LogistiCare Gives Back with Service Day for those Fighting Kidney Disease](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/logisticare-gives-back-service-day-fighting-kidney-disease) ### Recent Posts [![VIEW NOW](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4206606/d9d8c280-a709-46e1-a94f-1479c7743101.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4206606/d9d8c280-a709-46e1-a94f-1479c7743101) ### Archives - [October 2020 (1)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/10) - [September 2020 (5)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/09) - [August 2020 (1)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/08) - [July 2020 (4)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/07) - [June 2020 (5)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/06) - [May 2020 (4)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/05) - [April 2020 (4)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/04) - [March 2020 (5)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/03) - [February 2020 (1)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/02) - [January 2020 (2)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/archive/2020/01) [![View Infographic](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4206606/26a55119-7444-40c4-b7ae-3e08f9878df8.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4206606/26a55119-7444-40c4-b7ae-3e08f9878df8) ### Tags - [Blog (58)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/blog) - [Care Coordination (45)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/care-coordination) - [Keeping people healthy and safe (31)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/keeping-people-healthy-and-safe) - [Care Coordination & Logistics (27)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/care-coordination-logistics) - [NEMT industry (26)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/nemt-industry) - [Access to Care (25)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/access-to-care) - [Population Health (25)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/population-health) - [Healthcare logistics (24)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/healthcare-logistics) - [Managing Transportation (23)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/managing-transportation) - [Medicaid Care Coordination (15)](https://www.logisticare.com/blog/tag/medicaid-care-coordination) [![REQUEST A DEMO](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4206606/82889a1e-4814-4645-866d-5bbfd5bf4906.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4206606/82889a1e-4814-4645-866d-5bbfd5bf4906) ### GET CONNECTED - [JOIN OUR MAILING LIST](https://www.logisticare.com/blog-newsletter-subscription) - [CONTACT US](https://www.logisticare.com/contact-us/) - - - ![modivcare-new-logo_transparent](https://www.logisticare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/modivcare-new-logo_transparent.png?width=157&height=30&name=modivcare-new-logo_transparent.png)   © 2023 ModivCare.
