JR LEADERSHIP CAPE CORAL Jr LEADERSHIP KICK-OFF Mike “Q� Quaintance, MBA, CCE Jr Leadership 2017 Chairman

Over the past several weeks the Jr. Leadership class has been very busy with assorted daylong excursions. Students did Law & Order day with hosts Miguel Fernandez and Darryl Aubuchon as seen in the photo where the students are experimenting with finger printing. Jr. Leadership went to FGCU Hospitality school and worked with the chef, and learned about the hotel business from Dominick Soricelli. Most recently thanks to Matt Connar the Jr. Leadership students got to explore a career in media with a visit to FOX4, Wink, and iHeart Radio. Pictured below is Valeria Velazquez and Alex Carrasco who represented Jr. Leadership on the Morning Blend. You can also see Claire Driscoll and Valeria Velazquez trying out for the weather team at Wink. This program would not be possible without the program sponsors, volunteers, and student sponsors. Thank you Cape Coral Community Foundation, the News Press, and LCEC. Jr. Leadership is making a difference in the lives of young adults in our community.

This program encourages and teaches dozens of professionals within the Lee Health system and also young individuals ages 3-4 years to focus on eating 5 servings of within Lee County on many projects to achieve these goals. The vegetables and fruits daily; limiting screen time (TV, computers, purpose of this Chamber Trends article is to highlight some of the etc.) to no more than 2 hours per day; making sure to get at least successes we have had over the past six years as Lee Health has 1 hour of physical activity daily; and to have 0 sugary drinks daily. continued to invest in the health of the population. This successful program is helping children establish healthy Since 2010 we have been blessed by the education we have received from national authorities on health and wellness including Dr. T. Colin Campbell, author of The China Study, Hans Diehl from the CHIP program, Dr. Phil Tuso from Kaiser Permanente, triathlete Brendan Brazier, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, author of Eat to Live and The End of Heart Disease, Dr. Michael Greger, author of How Not to Die, Dr. Marc Braman from the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, author of Reversing Heart Disease and Nelson Campbell from PlantPure Nation. Lastly, Dr. Erkki Vartiainen talked on experiences from the North Karelia Project in Finland.

behaviors which hopefully will guide them in their formative years. I believe this concept should be adopted by people of all ages. The Lee Health food and nutrition team has also completed a multi-year malnutrition study which identified many hospitalized individuals who were malnourished at the time of admission and provided them with an innovative solution for inpatient medical care plus provided them with an after-discharge four week supply of therapeutically appropriate meals. This extended care program has resulted in improved health outcomes plus significantly reduced re-admission rates. This program called Flavor Harvest @ Home has been recognized nationally as an innovative nutrition solution supporting the concept of healing at home. By simply making sure individuals have healthy food to eat upon discharge, their medical conditions improved and they were less often readmitted back into the hospital.

The CHIP program founded by Hans Diehl is the “Complete Health Improvement Program” which is a plant based nutrition program that we have used with hundreds of Lee Health employees, spouses and many community folks since 2010. CHIP guru, Kathy Reynaert, has been instrumental in this nine week program which has helped individuals achieve tremendous improvements in blood pressure, Lee Health is also starting a whole food, plant based nutrition cholesterol levels, weight and diabetes levels. research project with over 200 employees.

and have blood pressure and lab tests completed before and at the end of the 60 day program. In a similar program run through the Employee Health clinic, most of the participants relay significant subjective improvements in energy level, cognitive function and overall wellness. Nutritionists/Dieticians are now in several of the Lee Physician Group (LPG) offices offering personalized nutritional consultations and guidance to patients in need and have been invaluable in helping design action plans for patients in order to improve their health through better nutrition.

among participants. Via this article I encourage all readers to log onto www.healthylee.com to learn more about this community organization, including educational and motivational tips and to sign up to be a part of the Million Mile Movement. Since 2010, I have been working with almost 100 health care professionals (physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, dieticians and hospital administrators) on using food as medicine. We actually call this committee FIM which stands for Food is Medicine which is so true. With an intentional focus on helping physicians and patients understand the value of food as medicine, we have shown the medical community and those in the general population that healthy food often times is just as effective as prescription medicines and other traditional therapies to improve health risks and to control chronic illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes and obesity. We emphasize that healthy food needs to be added to traditional medical practices in order to give each individual the best chance to attain optimal health.

Lee Health is concerned not only about the health of its patients but also about the health of its employees and leaders. As system medical director of employee health, I currently work with eight Advanced Nurse Practitioners (ARNPs) who last year alone visited with 17,000 employees and spouses to help them with acute medical problems as well as with their wellness goals. Several Lee Health executives have recently completed a wellness pilot program which enabled them to improve health risks as they At the Cape Coral Hospital campus of Lee Health, Scott Kashman modeled healthy lifestyle behaviors showing their commitment to (Chief Administrative Officer) has been instrumental in designing health and wellness. They emphasized the importance of “walking an Optimal Healing Environment, a place where patients and the walk and talking the talk” when it comes to healthy living. families can have the best chance of achieving optimal health. The word optimal is underscored since the goal is to be optimally well Lee Health’s food and nutrition team have done a fabulous job and not simply to be without disease. of creating healthy meals for employees and the public who eat in any of the hospital cafés. Under the direction of Larry Altier, the The Healthy Life Center in Estero opened in December 2015. The chefs have been showcasing healthy, plant based foods knowing first-of-its-kind health information and education center provides that health care starts with the foods a person eats on a daily basis. a variety of services and education that support healthy lifestyles, Their innovative concept called VeggieFare provides Lee Health early detection of disease, chronic disease management and much employees with over two dozen different whole food options daily more.

The goal is to help create awareness of the importance of physical activity and to create a sense of community The Lee Health Solutions department focuses on educating


HEALTHY TRENDS CONTINUED people living with chronic diseases, as well as those who just want to live a healthier life. The diabetes self-management program has been successful in helping participants improve their blood sugar control and to reduce the risk of complications from Diabetes. In addition, this department offers outpatient dietician counseling to help participants lose weight. They also provide guidance for those needing specialized nutrition plans based on their chronic health conditions. Also offered are free community programs for chronic pain and other disease management programs. One of the goals for those who work in this department is to help individuals understand and take an active role in improving their health.

Personally, one of the most exciting parts of my job is writing articles and giving public presentations about health and wellness. It is so exciting to work with people who truly want to become and stay healthy. In the Employee Health clinic, I have thus far worked with over 700 people on weight management and other health

risk factors and have been pleased with their success. These folks prove to me each day that adoption of healthy lifestyle behaviors does as much to improve health as traditional medical therapies do. In summary, as Lee Memorial Health System transitions into the new and improved Lee Health, the 16,000+ employees, physicians and volunteers continue to focus on not only treating acute and chronic illnesses but on helping people become and stay healthy. The goal is to keep people well and to keep them out of the hospital. By avoiding illness and disease we can create a community of healthy, fit, vibrant, productive individuals and thereby lower health care costs and improve the overall quality of life for each individual and for the community. The healthy living diagram below focuses on all the areas necessary to achieve optimal health and I hope this provides a picture the readers can use to design their own action plan for a healthier life!

REAL ESTATE TRENDS A New Fresh Start Berge Aslanian (CDPE) Realtor, Island Harbor Realty

The New Year met us as it always does with hope and optimism for a better year. Now that we have a few weeks of that new year under our belts and a week (as of this writing) of a new president, let’s see if we can decipher what it all means.

would jump at the offer. Besides being way too low and not willing to negotiate upward even though comparable homes were selling for $225-240,000, the buyer’s agent did not know how to submit a clear and correct offer to buy under FHA rules. Finding a nice house is hard enough even though there are plenty out there. Qualifying for a loan is another obstacle to overcome. Having a knowledgeable agent capable of getting you to the finish line will always be the difference between winning the home of your dreams or losing it.

A good agent will educate and prepare buyers and sellers to Looking at the Cape Coral numbers for the past three months know the realities of their specific market. What worked in Iowa should help put things in perspective. Here are the numbers 10 years ago won’t necessarily work here and more than likely the for Cape Coral residential real estate for the three month period prices are not the same either. ending 1/27/2017: On new homes, builders price the finished product based on cost of materials, cost of labor, cost of construction loan, permits, fees and a number of other variables including a modest profit margin for the risk of putting out all that money.

The number of single family homes for sale shows an increase again with median prices holding. The number of homes sold has dropped but the median prices continue to climb. Condo inventory for sale keeps climbing with median prices increasing. The number of condos sold decreased slightly and the median price is much lower than a month. Most buyers keep searching for those lower priced condos and single family houses. We have continued resistance to higher prices here. Personal experience clearly demonstrates that the buying public seems to think that, regardless of the market prices based on comparative sales, really low offers can be made. Unfortunately, sellers of resale homes and builders of new homes hardly ever agree.

Offering 10-15% less than the listed price just will not work for a new home or an existing home. Before starting a home, the cost of permits and fees in Cape Coral is $16,000. That must be paid before anything else happens. When folks tell us that prices will come down, it is easy to tell them that the city wants its money, the suppliers want their money, the sub-contractors want their money, the banks and insurers want theirs and nothing is going as long as costs keep rising as they have over the past few years. If you look at the numbers above for the past few months, you will notice that even with diminished numbers of homes and condos sold, the median prices are much higher than they were months before. Anyone living in the Cape for more than two years can verify that.

In fact, as everything goes up (check your grocery bills for proof) so will housing. Just the other day while going over some old files I found a few homes that were sold five years ago that now are Recently an offer of $199,000 was made on a beautiful home that worth twice what my clients paid. The prices doubled in five years! had been reduced to $225,000 two weeks earlier. Buyer thought So for those hopeful pessimists predicting lower prices one can that with a minimal down payment and FHA financing the sellers


REAL ESTATE TRENDS CONTINUED only quote from the movie Moonstruck, “Snap out of it!” If you pay attention to current events (and everybody should) you know we have new leadership in the White House. And I do mean leadership. In the first week we have seen more positive activity, including the stock market breaking through the 20,000 barrier, than we were promised by our prior president. Job increases, lower taxes, a greater sense of unity rather than divisiveness and other important changes coming our way are generating a greater feeling of national and personal security. The building undercurrent of new confidence in our future has started the phones ringing here. Builders are building, sellers are selling and even as prices go up slightly people are buying.

now lets them buy that new place cheaper today than later; that means the appreciation of that property will be in their favor. Mortgage rates have gone up a bit and will probably continue to increase as the Fed bumps the interest rates by quarter percentage points. Our economy is on the cusp of taking off. Buying or selling now while interest rates are still very affordable can set the stage for an extremely comfortable financial future. Talk with your trusted advisers to verify what smart investors already know. Finding an experienced real estate professional will make it so much easier. Always remember, successful real estate IS a team sport. Happy Property Buying and Selling!

Ireland is a country that has never lost a shared sense of community. Even in towns and cities, the pace of life is gentler here; people stop to chat in the streets, they are happy to give directions to tourists, they are glad you have come and they are sorry to see you go. Ireland has much to offer everyone. From storybook castles to magnificent gardens, wide open spaces to the bustle of international cities, breathtaking natural scenery to man made megalithic structures, Ireland opens her arms and welcomes you to explore her ancient sites, traverse her green fields and discover her treasures. The scenery is gorgeous, the weather is mild (though changeable), there is a rich cultural heritage to discover, and a wealth of music and stories to share. But the real joy of Ireland lies in the friendliness of the people, the warmth of their welcome, and the ease with which they make you feel at home.
