AUSTIN, Texas – SecureCare Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: SCUC), a health care information technology company based in Austin, Texas, is pleased to announce that it has engaged Austin-based Mercom Capital Group, an investor and public relations consulting firm, to provide strategic investor relations services.

“We welcome this partnership with Mercom Capital Group. We were impressed by their integrity, experience, dedication and drive and have selected them to launch our financial market awareness program," said Dennis Nasto, president and chief executive officer of SecureCare Technologies. “With the recent launch of Sfax™, our secure, electronic fax management system that is 100 percent dedicated to the health care industry, we believe we are now in a position for significant growth. Strategically, the time is right for us to commit to an investor relations program to expand our awareness throughout the investment community and to drive performance-based value for our shareholders.”
