Mr. Scott Purdy, Chairman and CEO of MEDIchair, North America’s largest and fastest growing HME franchise operation is pleased to announce that it has opened its northernmost store in Whitehorse, Yukon. MEDIchair Yukon will be operated by Mr. James Black and Ms. Shana MacLean, the current co-owners of Whitehorse-based Alpine Health Supplies and Services. It is MEDIchair’s 59th Canadian franchise store.
