WESTPORT, CT, December 7, 2007 – LifeCare®,
Inc., provider of comprehensive specialty care services
and a longtime leader in the work/life industry, has
won two Gold Awards and received an Honorable Mention
in the 2007 international MarCom Awards competition.
The Gold Awards were won by the company's blog on work/life
issues and its web-based multimedia presentation, “Corporate
Lactation Programs: Good for Moms, Babies and Business.”
The Honorable Mention was given to its audio podcast,
“How To Be the Best Dad You Can Be.”

“We're delighted to have won MarCom
awards once again,” said LifeCare CEO, Peter G. Burki.
“It's certainly nice to receive recognition of this
kind but, far more important, it confirms the fact that
LifeCare continues to deliver best-in-class content
of all kinds to its clients and their employees and
members.”
LifeCare launched its blog in 2007
to address a wide range of topics including work/life
balance, stress management, parenting challenges, child
and elder caregiving tips, and health and wellness strategies,
to name a few. The blog also gives employees access
to tools and resources created specifically to help
people better manage their work/life challenges.
The web-based multimedia presentation,
“Corporate Lactation Programs: Good for Moms, Babies
and Business,” was created to help employers design
and launch effective onsite lactation support programs.
The audio podcast, “How To Be the Best Dad You Can Be,”
was designed to offer time-starved working fathers creative
ideas for improving their relationships with their children
and making the most of the time they spend together.
