Administrator’s AccentsAs our beautiful West NY summer comes to a close, we look

forward with great anticipation to the fall. Not only have we planned many interesting and exciting activities for our residents, but we are eager to welcome new friends as well. In August, we opened our long-awaited, three-story addition featuring all private apartments. We continue our commitment to outstanding care and exceptional senior living, which we began in 1978. If you or someone you know wants to learn more about Heathwood or our new apartments, please feel free to contact me with any questions. Want to refer a friend? Contact Gary (529-4680) or Donna (529-4681) in our Marketing department.

Personality Profile Helen Nachreiner

became a member of the Heathwood family on March 15, 2018. Affectionately called the “Dancing Queen” by Activities staff, Helen is a delight on the Memory Care Unit, sharing her zest for life and people.

Helen worked in accounting at Blue Cross Blue Shield before her two daughters, Beverly and Barb, were born. She then held various positions in the Maryvale School System when the girls started school.

Barb says her mom loves to clean and when she was raising her family, she excelled at baking and sewing. Grandmother to five and great-grandmother to five, Helen met her true love and future husband, Joseph, the day before she turned 16 at a Halloween scavenger hunt. She knew he was the one and they married in 1946, one month after he returned from serving his country during WWII. Together they raised a family, traveled, and showed their love for others through prayer, kindness, and food.

Heathwood EmphasisWe are proud to announce that we officially opened our new 42 apartment addition at

Williamsville. Thank you for your patience during our construction. If you would like to see our new apartments, let us know and we can give you a tour.

Annually, we contract with MyInnerview, a company who confidentially surveys residents and family members to rate overall customer satisfaction in assisted living communities. They benchmark and compare results for communities across the country. It is very important to us that we receive this valuable feedback to improve the services we provide. You will receive a survey in the mail toward the end of September. We take the results of these surveys very seriously, so please take the time to fill it out and mail in back in a prepaid postage envelope. We plan to report on the findings of these survey results in the November newsletter.

• Dining Room Manager, Melissa Lazarony, addressed the group. She spoke about the minor rearrangements in the Dining Room to accommodate the needed new seating. Plans are to introduce the winter menu in early November. Any suggestions for menu items can be given to Melissa.

• Michele Ladouceur gave updates on the addition and introduced Morgan Scheible, Heathwood’s new Case Manager. The entrance to the patio will be from the café. Refurbishments of current apartments will be started January 2020.

• Wellness Director Jim Coats went over activities.
