Two opportunities to attend this not-to-be-missed presentation

 

DAVENPORT, IA (June 18, 2015) - Senior Star at Elmore Place is pleased to host national speaker and author, Jolene Brackey, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, June 30 and 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, July 1 at 4500 Elmore Avenue.

Eager to help those in an Alzheimer's caregiving role navigate the journey and challenges they face each day, Brackey established the company, Enhanced Moments.  Her presentation, "Creating Moments of Joy" delivers a message of hope and encouragement, along with generous doses of humor that has been warmly embraced by family members and professional caregivers alike.  Attendees will be inspired to look beyond the challenges of Alzheimer's disease and focus more energy on creating moments of joy.

Brackey's presentation parallels Senior Star's trademarked Purposeful Moments®philosophy which is inherent to their mission of providing a community lifestyle that inspires people to embrace senior living.  "Our residents are here because we are more than caregivers ... we are caregivers to the human spirit," said Marc Strohschein, executive director of Senior Star at Elmore Place.  "Assisting our residents in fulfilling their desire for a sense of purpose influences everything we do.  Bringing in speakers such as Jolene also reinforces our internal programs that support caregivers' needs."

Quad City community members are encouraged to attend this uplifting presentation filled with practical advice.  In addition to Brackey's insights, Senior Star associates will also be available for personal discussions with anyone who wants to see how the retirement community is designed to create those Purposeful Moments® in daily life for its residents.

Both events are free to the public.  Refreshments will be served at the June 30 presentation and lunch will be provided for those attending on July 1.  Please call 563.359.0100 by June 28 to reserve your spot today and indicate which presentation you would like to attend.
