Southern Home Medical Equipment, Inc. Launches New Investor Website

Southern Home Medical Equipment, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SHMM) launched a new format for its website today. The site location is www.southernhomemedical.com. Greg Tucker, President and CEO of Southern Home Medical stated, "We are re-launching our primary site in order to keep investors better informed of our short term and long term growth plans. We quickly outgrew the original site due to the diversity of our overall business strategy. The new site more clearly defines what makes us an attractive investment. When you compare our current market cap vs. our recent acquisitions, franchising activity and pending deals, it's obvious that we need to do a better job of keeping the investment community up to date and better informed. We would encourage those interested in Southern Home Medical to review the new website and also to review the video on our business strategy listed below."
