Client Testimonials I reached out to you during the most stressful time of life for both my loved ones and myself - horror had occurred to my dear loving mother.

My mom had fractured her hip and due to her frail health and advanced age required risky hip replacement surgery. Many issues legal and otherwise arose which I could not personally resolve. You not only resolved each and every one, but you continue to do so now, over 4 years later.

You always display extreme sincerity, compassion and friendship, using your vast experience and confidence in your ability, to continually bring satisfaction, positive results and a tremendous sense of relief and comfort to my loved ones and myself.

You have gone out of your way to visit Mom on multiple occasions in her Nursing house and we love you for it. As an attorney, friend, and a great man, I could not possibly hope to know anyone more phenomenal. The three greatest men I have ever known are my dear departed father, my dear departed father-in-law and Ely Rosenzveig.

I hired Ely to assist with my parents estate planning and it was a wise decision. He is a true expert in navigating through complex elder care law and procedures. His guidance was invaluable and his communication excellent. I would strongly recommend his services.

My Second Home in Mount Kisco hosted a BBQ to promote a new program for those individuals who have concerns about their memory and are eager to enhance their cognitive function.

This innovative, interactive program, called Evening Edition, provides activities, programming and socialization opportunities that will support the changing biological, psychological and social needs of individuals who are newly diagnosed with dementia and mild cognitive impairment. It is also a wonderful respite for caregivers.

Evening Edition provides a farm-fresh dinner, physical exercise, technology tutorials, and an intergenerational component as teens interact with the older adults to exchange ideas and create oral and written histories together.

At the same time, she is overseeing the addition of an outpatient rehabilitation facility scheduled to open in Wartburg’s state-of-the-art freestanding Rehabilitation Center in Fall 2015.

During her tenure at Wartburg, Ms. Ress has also led the team that has ensured each patient in Wartburg’s Rehabilitation Center, opened in 2013, maximizes their recovery with innovative therapies and a highly-skilled staff. Wartburg’s

Rehabilitation Center gets patients home faster and healthier with lower re-hospitalization rates and shorter lengths of stay than national and regional averages.

“I am proud of Ms. Ress and confident she will use this experience to enhance our leadership team’s ability to collaborate with other key area providers in an effort to better serve this community,” said David Gentner, Wartburg President and CEO. The Leadership Academy is a year-long program designed to strengthen not-forprofit leadership in aging services. The program provides a challenging and engaging learning environment that enhances the leadership capacity of aging-services professionals so they are better equipped to serve our field.

president and CEO Larry Minnix said, “Together, these individuals will learn valuable leadership skills that will help their organizations offer seniors the services they need, when they need them, in a place they can call home.”

“I am excited to have been selected as a Fellow as it will allow for professional growth as well as the opportunity to exchange ideas and best practices with similar healthcare organizations from across the country,” said Ms. Ress.

Fellows will meet throughout the year to explore diverse perspectives from aging services leaders, learn from innovative care and service models, enhance their leadership skills and core competencies, and advance person-centered programming in aging services.

Do you ever have difficulty hearing or understanding speech in restaurants?

At parties or family gatherings? Do you feel that people are mumbling all the time? Is the volume on your television creeping up? Is telephone conversation sometimes difficult to understand? If you answered yes to any of these questions, there is a strong possibility that you may have some degree of hearing loss. It has been shown that if a hearing loss is present, a person has to struggle to hear speech.

Undue stress is put on that individual. This stress can have a negative effect on a persons quality of life. It can cause that person to avoid many social situations.

This, in turn, can cause that person to become more isolated. Over the past 15 years Westchester Audiology and Hearing Aid Specialist, P.C. has been helping people hear and communicate better by providing superior healthcare to their patients.

Astorino seeks Senior Hall of Fame nominations

Westchester County Executive Robert P. Astorino is inviting residents to submit a nomination to the Westchester Senior Citizens Hall of Fame, now in its 33rd year.

“The Hall of Fame is a special tradition that honors seniors who have given their time and energy to improve the quality of life in their communities or the county at large” Astorino said.

“Don’t miss this great opportunity to shine a light on people who merit special recognition for their contributions.”

Those selected will be inducted into the Senior Hall of Fame at a festive luncheon on Friday, December 4 in the Grand Ballroom of the Westchester Marriott Hotel.

Nominations are due by September 25 and may be obtained online at westchestergov.com/seniors.

To be nominated, a person must: • Be at least 60 years old and live in Westchester • Have made significant contributions to improve life in the county • Be an outstanding leader or advocate • Have done professional work that reflects innovative solutions to fulfill unmet community needs (if nomination is based on paid professional work) • Not be a past Hall of Fame inductee (see list of former inductees at westchestergov.com/seniors).

All nominations will be reviewed by a judging committee of past Senior Hall of fame honorees, members from DSPS’ Aging Network, the county’s Senior Council and the Older Americans Act Advisory Council.

Gala sponsors are the Westchester County Department of Senior Programs and Services (DSPS), Westchester County Parks and the Westchester Public/Private Partnership for Aging Service DSPS Commissioner Mae Carpenter said that seniors have helped Westchester to become known for its renowned quality of life.

ATTORNEYS AT LAW Many Years of Experience Protecting the Legal Interests of the Elderly & Special Needs Populations

Why should I spend money hiring attorneys to do asset protection planning for me and my loved ones?

Currently, the monthly cost for nursing home care in New York ranges between $10,000-$15,000, and properly certified home health attendants (nurse aides) can cost as much or more for round- the-clock home care. Statistically, it is likely that most people will need either or both of these care options as they grow older. It is critical that you plan appropriately to best minimize the strain that elder care costs may have on your estate, and to help put you in the best position possible to qualify for benefits that are largely covered by the government, under Medicare or Medicaid.

Our firm has attorneys with extensive experience in developing tax-effective action plans for our clients that help protect their assets from government imposition. We have also been very successful in negotiating the complex bureaucratic minefield in which Medicaid is now mired. We have achieved remarkable results for our clients on a host of Medicaid related issues, from obtaining Medicaid approvals for coverage of home care and institutional care benefits, to very accommodative resolutions of Medicaid spousal recovery claims, where the office of Medicaid aggressively pursues the non-institutionalized (i.e., or “community”) spouse for Medicaid benefits provided.

Why should I have a lawyer prepare my will?

If you die without a Will, the law, not you, determines how your assets are divided and to whom they are given. A poorly drafted Will may result in a sizeable chunk of your assets not ending up where you want them to go. We are an experienced law firm that can expertly craft your will to address your long-term care, tax, estate planning, and asset protection planning issues. It is in your best interest that planning be done properly so as to minimize the tax burden on your estate.

Our experience and skill in the fields of Trusts, Wills, and Estates enables our firm to uniquely tailor estate planning to your individual needs. We will review your entire estate and draft a personalized plan that will best direct the disposition of your assets after death, whether through your Will, or by means of testamentary substitutes (trusts, joint-asset ownership with right of survivorship, or by beneficiary designation in life insurance policies, annuities, or individual retirement accounts).

My father is having difficulty caring for himself. I am afraid he will no longer be able to live on his own. I am worried about finding the money to pay for his care, whether he stays at home or moves to an assisted living facility or nursing home. What do I do?

Your concerns are certainly daunting, and heart-rending. Our firm offers you a caring hand, an open ear, and uncompromising professional competence, and commitment. We will help find for you solutions that best suit your needs, using the latest tax, trust, and other asset protection strategies available under the law.
