Supporting Those Who Serve
Last week, members of the Florence Town Council and Town leadership toured the new Recharge Rooms for Florence Fire & Medical and the Florence Police Department. We thank State Representatives Teresa Martinez and Chris Lopez for helping secure funding for these important wellness resources.
The rooms include red light therapy, grounding, sound and light therapy with vagus nerve activation, an infrared sauna, a cold plunge, and behavioral health resources. The Town is also partnering with researchers from Arizona State University and the University of Arizona to evaluate outcomes related to sleep, chronic pain, mental health, and occupational cancer prevention.
This proactive investment is designed to support recovery, improve retention, and help reduce future medical and personnel costs – protecting our first responders and taxpayer dollars.
