The Firefighter Impact Study
70% sponsorship on comprehensive regenerative care for firefighters. Funded entirely by ResCore. The brand's mission in practice.
“I spent thirty years running into burning buildings. When I retired with an 87% disability rating, the system that was supposed to rebuild me had nothing left to offer. I had to go find it myself, and now we sponsor the people who come after me.”
Why this exists
The gap between the job and the care.
Firefighters accumulate injuries that the usual workers' compensation pipeline is not built to resolve. Orthopedic wear from decades of shift work. Cardiovascular stress from carcinogen exposure. Traumatic brain injuries that do not show up on a standard scan. The job wears you out in ways most care systems are not designed to track, let alone reverse.
Steve Poole founded ResCore after running into that gap himself. He had already tried the conventional options. The regenerative protocols he eventually used, IV detox infusions, mesenchymal stem cell therapy, and hormone optimization, gave him his quality of life back. Once he saw what was possible, he decided the people who spent their careers protecting everyone else should not have to pay out of pocket to access the same kind of care.
The Firefighter Impact Study is the result. It is not a clinical trial, not a sponsorship program in the marketing sense, and not a discount band. It is the clinic's mission in practice: a dedicated program that covers 70% of the cost of a comprehensive regenerative protocol for eligible first responders, funded by ResCore Clinic.
How we give back
The Impact Study that changes everything.
ResCore Clinic doesn't have any ties to big pharmaceutical or insurance companies, so our treatments carry no commissions or margins for stakeholders. Undistracted by money, we focus entirely on providing the best holistic regenerative treatments to our patients and their families, going above and beyond with ongoing coaching to help you implement and maintain the lifestyle changes that are truly best for you.
But we want more people like us to benefit from these treatments. So we funded an Impact Study with the goal of proving to legislators that stem cells work, when done right. This clinical study can open the way for the medical industry and insurance companies in the United States and Canada to provide more alternatives.
As we prove beyond a doubt that our treatments can increase the career length of public safety employees, increase their life expectancy and quality of life during retirement, drastically reduce their risk of disability, and cut rehabilitation time and costs for municipalities, everything will change. These treatments will finally be more accessible to everyone, both with and without insurance.
Until that day arrives, we help pick up the tab. ResCore Clinic provides a 70% subsidy to public safety employees who participate in this program.
This Impact Study is entirely bootstrapped and funded by ResCore Clinic in collaboration with CBCells Biotechnology laboratory, Hino Medical Center, Dr. Martin Bravo (firefighter union advisor), Joe Kerr (President), and Steve Poole (Founder, President, and retired firefighter).
