“We made it so that there are areas for
specific activities. Along with a grant
from Hand In Hand, which enabled us
to purchase a refrigerator and a couple
of lounge chairs, the most apparent
changes are the warm colors on the
walls, and the furniture being set up so
that there is an actual sitting area. Now
it is like they are sitting in their own
family room. There is a game table for
checkers. There is a round table they sit
at for lunch, with a table cloth and china
where they have a hot kosher meal.
Some people prefer to have areas to do
activities on their own; there is room for
that as well.”
The piano was moved into the main
room so that Margaret Everson,
Activities Coordinator, can play for the
group. “She plays so beautifully, and
she will play Yiddish songs and show
tunes and other songs, and they will just
sing and it’s warm and haimishe. The
atmosphere changes.”
Indeed, the whole atmosphere has
changed, with real artwork and a warm,
inviting color palette on the walls, the
new furniture arrangements and more.
Dana writes a monthly letter to the
families with highlights of activities and
includes a calendar of events. In this
way, families can choose which days will
be more meaningful for their loved ones
to attend, and it offers a touch point
for something to talk about when they
return. The families appreciate knowing
what is going on each day as well as
having a conversation starter for when
they are reunited at the end of the day.
Paula Ruby, whose husband, Bill,
attends the ADC, says, “The very,
very patient women {working in the
ADC} really pegged my husband. They
understood that he has to be kept busy.
I really appreciate that.”
Paul Elias finds the Jewish environment
very meaningful. His wife, Jenny, says he
likes the program and especially loves
the music. “I am so glad that he’s part of
this program, I really am. The staff is very
qualified, and they are good to him.”
She especially likes the calendars the
staff sends out with the daily activities.
“They have a fabulous program, and they
keep the family informed. They keep the
participants active. It gives me a break,
it really does. It gives me a chance to do
things on my own. It’s very important for
my husband to have some socialization
and interaction with other people. It’s
more than I could do for him.”
The Adult Day Center is more than
just a place to stay for a few hours.
Services such as nursing supervision,
physical therapy, occupational therapy
and more are available if needed. An
individual care plan is worked out for
each person attending. If you have a
loved one you think would benefit from
such an environment, call Dana RubinWinkelman at 414-289-9600, ext. 471
and ask about trying a day for free.
Concealed & Carry Policy on
JHCC, CP and SCC Properties
I
n July, Governor Scott Walker signed Wisconsin Act 35
into law, which makes it legal for Wisconsin residents who
meet certain requirements to carry concealed weapons.
The law permits employers to decide whether or not to allow
concealed weapons on their premises.
at all times while it is on any portion
of our property.
If you see anyone in possession of a weapon on JHCC property
and believe that someone may be in imminent danger, call 911.
And secondly, please contact the Front Desk of the building
for immediate internal response. If you suspect that someone
is violating the corporate Conceal and Carry Policy, but do
not believe there is imminent danger, you should contact
the Corporate Compliance Hotline at 414-277-8856 and
leave sufficient information so the matter can be addressed
appropriately. The Jewish Home and Care Center, Chai Point
and Sarah Chudnow Community are committed to ensuring
that complaints of weapons or violence are investigated and
resolved promptly and effectively. No employee will suffer
adverse employment actions as a result of reporting conduct
that violates this policy or a suspected violation of this policy.
The Jewish Home and Care Center, Chai Point and Sarah
Chudnow Community strictly prohibit employees and all
other persons from bringing, storing, concealing or possessing
any weapon including, but not limited to, firearms, handguns,
knives, and explosive devices on any portion of any of our
properties. This policy applies even if the individual is licensed
to carry a concealed weapon under state law. This property
includes the entirety of the offices, living and work areas of
each of our facilities, all areas surrounding each building such
as sidewalks, walkways, terraces, patios, gardens, driveways
and parking lots, and company-owned vehicles. The law
permits the storage of firearms, handguns and knives within
personal vehicles. Our policy requires that the firearms,
handguns and knives remain locked within the owner’s vehicle
Our goal is the safety of our residents, employees and guests,
while complying with the law.

2011 Annual Dinner
O
nce a year, the Jewish Home and Care Center hosts the
community at its Annual Dinner. In November 2011,
the JHCC honored Past President Mina K. Tepper with
a gala affair that was hosted by honorary co-chairs Sheila and
Larry Appel and included a special musical tribute by Joel and
Chana Eckhardt.
About 225 people paid tribute to Ms. Tepper in an evening
filled with praise and memories. The décor of the event centered
around dreidels, as Ms. Tepper is an avid collector of the
Chanukah spinning top, and the rooms were decorated in the
rose and purple colors that are among her favorites. The Annual
Dinner Committee worked hard to include those touches that
would be sure to please their honoree. Committee member Suzy
Peltz created a centerpiece that resembled a dreidel, except that
the letters spelled out M-I-N-A. Bottles of wine on each table wore
dreidel necklaces – also created by Suzy – and the gift presented
to Mina was a hand painted ceramic dreidel from Israel.
Sheila and Larry Appel, longtime friends of Mina and her
husband, Jerry, served as honorary co-chairs. Sheila displayed
and read the proclamations received from Governor Walker and
Mayor Tom Barrett, and a personal letter from Senator Herb Kohl.

Marcus, Suzy Ettinger, and Doreen Marcus.

Dinner will be November 11, 2012! If you’d like to serve on

Sarah chudnow Community
We Made the List!
S
arah Chudnow has just completed
its annual mandatory health
inspection and has once again
shown itself to be one of the top
skilled nursing homes in Wisconsin.
Congratulations to the staff of SCC for
continuing to maintain the 5-Star rating
of which we are so proud! You can also
find Sarah Chudnow on the list of US
News and World Report’s annual list of
Best Nursing Homes in the country!
New Year’s Eve Celebration
New Year’s Eve was celebrated in Town Square with live music and a gala celebration. Entertainment was provided by resident Rose Dubester’s
great-nephew Noah Wolfe on guitar and great-niece Ariella Wolfe on clarinet and vocals. They were accompanied by their mom
Julie Hochman on cello and Rick Aaron on flute.
Do-Gooder’s Day of Deals
Voter Photo ID Event
In December, SCC held a fair to support the Alzheimer’s Association
of SE Wisconsin. More than 20 vendors set up booths in Town
Square, where residents and visitors were able to purchase anything
from kitchen products to haute couture. In addition, vendors
supplied items to be raffled off. The next fair will be held November
25. It’s never too early to mark your calendar!
Nadya Perez-Reyes, Elections Specialist, explained the new law in
detail and answered questions. She handed out written information
and told our residents they didn’t have to worry about the elections, as
long as they voted by absentee ballots. She also gave great information
to all of the community members who came to the presentation.

Our Volunteers are Our Lifeline
D
eciding to become a volunteer at the Jewish Home, Chai Point or Sarah Chudnow is a very personal
decision. Some choose to do so because of a prior connection to the organization. Others do it because
they have time on their hands and are looking for something to do. Still others volunteer because they
want to be connected to the Jewish community. Whatever the reason, most volunteers soon find themselves part
of a whole new community… with new friends, new joys and a new appreciation of what it means to be part of
this large Milwaukee family, as volunteer Ken Stein can tell you.
Homespun: Why did you decide
to volunteer?
Ken: When I retired from the jewelry
a lot out of seeing people enjoying
themselves.
business, I wasn’t ready to kick back and
do nothing. It was time to give back. I
was brought up that way. My mother
was very attached to the Home. She gave
to the Home. Her mother was here. My
parents lived near the first Jewish Home
for the Aged. My father’s father lived
in the Jewish Home in the 40s. It was
a different type of Home then; people
showed up with suitcases and moved in.
Homespun: What was the hardest
thing to get used to when you
started volunteering?
Ken: To see so many people who want
Homespun: Why volunteer at the
Jewish Home?
Ken: I am involved with a lot of
organizations; the Jewish Federation,
the JCC, I’m on an advisory board for
Concordia University, to name a few.
But not only did I want to get involved
in the Jewish community, we also
conveniently moved next door!
Homespun: How did you get
started?
Ken: Arleen Peltz asked me to join the
board of the Jewish Home, of which she
is now chair. She asked me if I’d like to
get active, and here I am.
Homespun: Who were your
influences?
Ken: My parents and my wife. Dee
and I have been married 50 years. She
influences me by word and deed, in a
very quiet way.
Homespun: What activities do you
like best?
Ken: I enjoy group activities, because
we can make the residents smile. I get
your attention and who can’t do what
they used to do, what they want to do.
A smile from you makes a difference,
even if it’s just once a week. I would like
to see more family members assisting
and visiting because no one can give the
people you love everything you want
them to have. When family is here, it
helps. A smile from family is worth a
thousand words.
Homespun: How much time do you
spend volunteering at the JHCC?
Ken: At least few hours a week.
Homespun: What would you say
to someone who is thinking about
volunteering?
Ken: Just do it. You’ll get far more out
of it than you’ll put in. It’s very easy
to be a volunteer. You will get out of it
happiness and knowing that they are
enjoying it.
Homespun: What have you
learned since you started
volunteering here?
Ken: That the Residents just want to
be able to live and be happy. They have
challenges that do not allow them to
do what most people can; they have
restrictions. They want to laugh, they
want to kibitz, they want to lighten up.
They kid back.

Flu Shot Requirements
To protect our frail population, it
is now required that all volunteers
follow the same procedure as our
employees, and show proof of flu shot
in order to work with our Residents
during flu season. If you do not have a
flu shot, you will have to either wear a
mask or work only in a non-Resident
contact capacity. Please note that these
opportunities are extremely limited.
Volunteers may receive an
injection from the Jewish Home
or Sarah Chudnow Community
if it’s available after our resident
and employee populations have
been served.

Coordinator, with any concerns at

Jewish Home and Care Center Foundation
Long-Term Care… What does it mean?
T
he phrase “long-term care” can mean many different
things to many different people. It can mean moving in
with a daughter or son, moving out of your house of 35
years, relocating to another city, hiring a private duty caregiver,
moving into an assisted living apartment or placing a loved
one in a skilled nursing home. Since 70% of people over the
age of 65 require some long-term care services [1] it has become
increasingly important to plan for long-term care, not only
because it is very expensive, but because there is a good chance
you will need some long-term care service if you live beyond
the age of 65.
Thanks to the mission of the Jewish Home and Care Center
Foundation and the generosity of many donors over the
years, the Jewish Home and Care Center, Chai Point Senior
Living and Sarah Chudnow Community are able to work with
families and provide services regardless of their ability to pay.
To find out more about long-term care planning, visit
www.longtermcare.gov.
[1]
www.longtermcare.gov
It is most common for people to first learn about long-term
care when they or a loved one require services due to some
type of crisis situation like a fall or an illness. However, if you
wait until a crisis occurs to start planning, your options may
be limited. The information you need may not be available,
you might not have the money you need to pay for the services
you want, or you may have to rely on family or close friends to
make important decisions for you.
“…if you wait until a crisis
occurs to start planning,
your options may be limited.”

Tuesday, July 3rd
Family Festival of Fun is Back!
So, what do you need to consider when starting to plan?
Although there are many personal factors that should be
considered like age, gender, lifestyle and health status, the
most stress-inducing issue for most families is financial
resources. Long-term care can be costly. Since the cost of
healthcare only continues to rise, it is important to understand
your options and ask some vital questions about what your
current or future insurance covers.
