Medical Conversion update

Make a difference today:
Click Here to Donate
WELS Lutherans for life (LFL) had the opportunity to expand in the last couple years because the back half of our building was not occupied. The computer store vacated the premises close to three years earlier. 

​This is the story of becoming a pregnancy medical clinic...

MedCon Update - July 2017

We're still in the third trimester of the medical conversion, and much continues to happen. It's amazing! 

As I write this we're waiting for the last of the city inspections to complete our renovations.  Thanks again to the Sebald Millwork folks and the others that are working with them, including 3 Phase Power electrical contractors.

The ultrasound machine arrived on Monday, July 17 and immediately found its home in the completed ultrasound suite. The 40" television was installed just before the machine arrived. 

We are extremely grateful to the Knights of Columbus Councils 524-Milwaukee and 3562-Kettle Moraine for spearheading the fundraising for our U/S machine and medical equipment.

Thank you for helping us get to where we are. Please consider how you can help us finish strong. We still need your help to run our center at full speed. 
​

Our projected medical conversion capital budget for 2017 is $177,103. The increase to our annual budget after the first year is estimated at $75,000.
MedCon Update - May 2017

Here we are, in the third trimester of the medical conversion, and so much is happening. It's amazing! Thanks to you, and all our financial partners who have provided funding for the initial start-up of this project.

It happened! Monday morning, May 22, by 8 a.m. the crew from Sebald Millwork LLC arrived and began demolition of consultation room #1 and the advocate workroom. One and a half walls will be removed to combine the two rooms and connect an adjoining bathroom to form the ultrasound suite. Thanks to the Sebald Millwork folks and the others that are working with them, including 3 Phase Power electrical contractors.

Wow! it's taken quite a while since we began this process --over a year ago-- to get to this point, but there is now visible, tangible change and growth to our medical conversion.  

The ultrasound machine has been ordered. Once the renovations are complete it will be shipped, set up, and calibrated -- and ready to go.

We are extremely grateful to the Knights of Columbus Councils 524-Milwaukee and 3562-Kettle Moraine for spearheading the fundraising for our U/S machine and medical equipment. We also thank the other folks who’ve helped the Knights achieve $19,000 for our medical equipment!!

MedCon Update - April 2017

We're working with the TredoGroup architects on needed building renovations to make the ultrasound room the most efficient and comfortable for the moms needing medical services. The plan has been presented to the West Allis building department for approval. Once we receive approval NateSebald

We are recruiting volunteer nurses, and the next big step is remodeling our center, then meeting medical requirements and finalizing policies and taking care of all the unexpected details, we are hopeful to launch ultrasound services in early summer of 2017. 

We've begun working with the Tredo Group for our renovations and look forward to their recommendations. 

Our projected medical conversion capital budget for 2017 is $177,103. The increase to our annual budget after the first year will be approximately $75,000.
