"We anticipate this model to be really an opportunity to leverage CHL's behavioral and health exper- tise, and leveraging the Worcester police and other first responders' expertise that already exists within our community," said Lundi. Though certain crisis-response programs have assisted law enforcement already in the city, such as in the form of mental health professionals doing ride- alongs with police, the new pro- gram intends to be a substantial augmentation of providing mental health assistance to 911 calls. The plan has drawn inspiration from similar efforts in other parts of the country, such as the CAHOOTS program in Eugene, Ore., and crisis response models in Atlanta. Boston Scientific co- founder and former CEO passes away at 80 Peter Nicholas, one of the co- founders of Marlborough-based Boston Scientific, passed away on May 14th. Nicholas, who died just two days shy of his 81st birthday, was born in Maine and served as a lieutenant in the U.S. Navy before co-found- ing Boston Scientific with John Abele in 1979. Nicholas served as CEO of the company for 20 years, from 1979 to 1999. He remained active within the company afterward, serving as chairman of the board until 2016, according to the tribute post- ed by the company in May, shortly after his death. "As a pioneer who helped shape the field of minimally invasive sur- gery, Pete Nicholas is remembered worldwide for his contribution to vastly improved patient outcomes and equally impressive increases in healthcare efficiency," said Mike Mahoney, the current CEO and chairman of Boston Scientific, in a statement put out by the company. "Within the Boston Scientific fami- ly, Pete was also a lifelong mentor, motivator and friend to hundreds of employees."
