The '''Cryo-Care Equipment Corporation''' or just '''Cryo-Care''' was an American company that manufactured [[cryocapsule]]s and [[Cryopreservation|cryopreserved]] people for cosmetic reasons, though the [[cryonics]] issue did naturally arise.<ref name="Suspension Failures">[https://www.alcor.org/library/suspension-failures-lessons-from-the-early-years/ Suspension Failures: Lessons from the Early Years]. [[R. Michael Perry]]. alcor.org</ref> It was founded by [[Ed Hope]] in Phoenix, Arizona in 1965.<ref name="Suspension Failures" /><ref name="Shoffstall p. 148">[https://www.ideals.illinois.edu/bitstream/handle/2142/90878/SHOFFSTALL-DISSERTATION-2016.pdf Failed Futures, Broken Promises, and the Prospect of Cybernetic Immortality: Toward an Abundant Sociological History of Cryonic Suspension, 1962–1979] (page 148 of the file).

Cryo-Care did not use [[cryoprotectant]]s or [[perfusion]] with their patients but only did [[straight freeze]]s to [[liquid nitrogen]] temperature.<ref name="Suspension Failures" /> Cryo-Care cryopreserved four people in the 1960s: "[[Sarah Gilbert]]", [[Louis Nisco]], [[Eva Schulman]], and [[Donald Kester Sr.]] Eventually they all thawed out.<ref name="Suspension Failures" /> For a few years, Cryo-Care also took care of [[James Bedford]], who was eventually transferred to the [[Alcor Life Extension Foundation]], where he remains to this day.<ref>[https://www.alcor.org/library/dear-dr-bedford-an-open-letter-to-the-first-frozen-man/ Dear Dr. Bedford – An Open Letter to the First Frozen Man].
