MDM Gives Back to the Ronald McDonald House

Posted on December 2, 2011 by mdmstaff

“The Ronald McDonald House has been an important part of my life since my mother Patricia Austin formed the Advisory Board in the late 80’s. When I founded MDM in 1990, this was the first charity that my company became involved in. We began taking meals to the families and later donated TV’s for the new Ronald McDonald House on Children’s Way.  MDM continues to cook dinners at the new facility and a few years ago all of our associates donated money to buy gift cards for the families at Christmas time. The people at Ronald McDonald House fill such a vital need in our community. They truly care for families in need with a warm and loving heart.” - Steve Austin, CEO of MDM Healthcare

This holiday season, MDM will once again be supporting families staying at the Ronald McDonald House by donating gift cards. These gift cards allow the children to pick something out for themselves and the adults to purchase things they need or holiday gifts for the children. For more information about the Ronald McDonald House, click here, and to make a donation to this wonderful cause, please click here. Happy Holidays to you and yours from all of us at MDM!

Steve in Action!

MDM Solutions in Action for a New South Florida Children’s Hospital

Posted on September 6, 2011 by mdmstaff

MDM was excited to go the extra mile for a new children’s hospital in South Florida by delivering exactly the in-room television solution they desired. The hospital chose MDM as their television and television mount vendor, and we assisted them through every step of a smooth and efficient implementation that included some original design elements.

New PDi 37” Healthcare Grade Televisions were selected as the primary in-room displays, but the hospital preferred black frames instead of PDi’s standard silver. We helped them get the black frames they desired, and now PDi offers this option in their normal product line. The hospital also wanted to install a second television in a corner of each patient room for visiting family members. 22” screens were used to provide a quality viewing experience and maintain a clean room layout.

Working with other vendors involved in the hospital’s construction, MDM installed and assisted with connecting the new televisions to the customer’s complete satisfaction. Contact MDM today and let us go the extra mile for you on your next construction or improvement project.

MDM’s CEO Discusses the New LG Digital Signage Solution

Posted on September 1, 2011 by mdmstaff

“I just saw LG’s new EZSign digital signage solution and I’m blown away at how easy-to-use and affordable it is. This is a true High Definition Television that ships with the software to manage the signage message. This new product allows our healthcare customers to create a message or revenue generating advertisement on their PC, download it onto a memory stick, plug it into the TV and your good to go. It’s that simple and the software is very user friendly! I’ve seen a lot of expensive solutions delivered over high-end monitors. This one is 1/5 the price and easy to use…a winning combination!” -Steve Austin, MDM Healthcare CEO

MDM Sponsors State Championship Winning Baseball Team!

Posted on August 24, 2011 by mdmstaff

What a season the Julington Creek Blue Thunder All Stars had this summer. After an amazing regular season, the team made it to the state championship and…WON! As one of the Blue Thunder All Stars sponsors, MDM couldn’t be more proud of the whole team and is pleased to have had the opportunity to help them achieve a widely successful season! Congratulations!

“This is Mikey Romano I play centerfield for the Julington Creek Blue Thunder All Stars team that Mr. Steve and MDM sponsored. This summer we were 23-1 and won the State Championship, woo hoo! It was so much fun for me and my team to go to Palm Beach and stay in a real neat hotel that had a waterfall inside of it. We stayed there almost a whole week. It rained every day but we had a great time, and the best part was winning the State Championship. We won the semi finals 6-1 and the Championship 13-0. We were all crying happy tears. My dad picked me up and I squeezed him real tight because he was our coach. Thank you MDM for helping us go on this great trip, Mikey Romano #17“

From all of us here at MDM, you are so welcome Mikey and team. Looking forward to many more winning seasons for the Julington Creek Blue Thunder All Stars!
