**MedStar Mobile Healthcare Seeking Participants for Special Trick or Treat Event**

MedStar Mobile Healthcare is inviting nominations for children aged 5 to 15 who require medical support to participate in a unique Trick or Treat event on October 26th, from 6 PM to 8 PM. This event aims to provide a safe Halloween experience for children who may not normally be able to go out due to medical restrictions.

To be eligible, children and their families must either live or be temporarily residing in the MedStar service area. Children currently in hospitals or other medical facilities can be considered, and MedStar will coordinate with the respective facility to assess feasibility for participation.

Families must be willing to share their experience with media partners and sign a media release. Final eligibility will be determined by MedStar based on clinical appropriateness.

The deadline for nominations is October 14th. Interested families should contact Desiree Partain at Dpartain@medstar911.org or by phone at 817-614-4157.

This program is a collaborative effort between MedStar and the Fort Worth Fire Department and has been running for 11 years. Participants will be picked up at home and transported in a fully decorated ambulance to a designated neighborhood for trick-or-treating, receiving medical support throughout the event.

For more details, please refer to the guidelines mentioned above. Stay safe, Fort Worth!
