I hope you and your family are doing well and enjoying the last remaining weeks of summer. We have much to be grateful for this year and have much more to share with you in the year ahead. Montefiore and The Rehabilitation Pavilion at The Weils have both received the highest possible rating of five stars in U.S. News & World Report’s fifth annual Best Nursing Homes of 2013. This rating reflects the dedication and expertise of our clinical staff members. As you can see by the photos at left, our 130th Anniversary Celebration, “A Grand Affair” was a huge success and helped us raise over $400,000 toward the final dollars to build the Maltz Hospice and Palliative Care Pavilion. It truly was a “Grand Affair!” Over 100 guests joined us at the Maltz Hospice and Palliative Care Pavilion groundbreaking ceremony for the new 10,000 square foot hospice pavilion – providing a new home for the Vinney Hospice and Palliative Care program. Opening is planned in summer 2014. Due to the success of The Willensky Residence, our new assisted living memory care pavilion, we are expanding and renovating space in the adjacent wing to accommodate ten additional suites with seven of the suites already reserved. Construction will begin this fall with completion by the end of the year. Along with all nursing homes in Ohio, Montefiore will be participating in the statewide Ohio Long-Term Care Facility Resident Satisfaction Survey. (See page 2.) If you have any questions about the survey, please call Mark Weiss, administrator, at 216.910.2640. In June, Montefiore, in partnership with Bikur Cholim of Cleveland, hosted an Orthodox Men’s Health Fair to great success with over 150 men who received various health screenings. We are already planning one for next year. Wishing you and yours a happy and healthy New Year. VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT H U R À H W Q R 0 Idol Smiles Abound with Junior Volunteers! by Erlein Tacastacas, Cadkin Youth Leadership Intern For many young people, “summer” is synonymous with 75 days of freedom from homework assignments, but some teenagers use the season to open themselves up to new experiences, by which to grow and learn. Such was the case at Montefiore, where as many as 125 new and returning junior volunteers (ages 12-18) graciously offered their time, talent and services to Montefiore, developing skills such as patience and diligence and enriching the lives of our residents. The opportunities for junior volunteers to serve at Montefiore are wonderfully diverse; from folding freshly washed linen with the laundry staff to reading trivia with residents in the outdoor courtyard to meticulously filing documents in the office. Through all of these activities, the strong spirit and remarkable enthusiasm of the junior volunteers shone through in unexpected situations such as outdoor picnic cancellations due to rain and even a tornado warning, as they willingly accepted challenging tasks and prioritized the needs of the residents. Junior volunteers are not only conscientious and hardworking; they are also charismatic and artistically gifted. They grabbed the spotlight to showcase their talents at the annual Montefiore Idol Talent Show on Thursday, July 25. The acts, which ranged from piano sonatas to poetry reading to vocal performances, earned much-deserved praise from the judges, including Board Chair Steve Willensky, resident Donna Rosen and Posh Nosh Supervisor Allison DiMichele, who, after careful deliberation, awarded the title of Montefiore Idol 2013 to Katie Holbury, a 12th grader at Beaumont, for her rendition of “The Cup Song.” Congratulations Katie! Students around the community also had the opportunity to volunteer with camps and organizations that visited this summer. High school students from Camp Wise and also the Mandel JCC’s J-Teen Camp visited several times to offer their sunny smiles and amusing anecdotes to residents they chatted with in the courtyard. Camp SAY high school students seeking to strengthen youth in communities were also a great help with the laundry staff and wonderful company for the residents. No amount of volunteer work is too small and all service, both conspicuous and subtle alike, was recognized during the culmination of this summer’s junior volunteer program. The annual Junior Volunteer Recognition was held on Thursday, August 15 and celebrated the many hours of service junior volunteers provided at Montefiore. This year’s theme, “Junior Volunteers Are the Sweetest!” offered a tribute to the kindness, generosity and happiness they bring to Montefiore and The Weils. It was an evening to remember! As always, a Montefiore Junior Volunteer of the Year was recognized, and this year it was Julia Ullman, a senior at Hawken School. Julia’s dedication, maturity and responsibility since 2008 made her a deserving recipient. Julia is the daughter of Susan and Harlan Ullman of Pepper Pike. The Weils Junior Volunteer of the Year, Austin Barr, was recognized for his delightful qualities. Austin will be a freshman this fall and has been volunteering since 2010. Austin is the son of Kelly and David Barr of Chagrin Falls. “The Fabulous Five” were also honored for their exemplary service: Anna Marie Anthony, 11th grade, Beaumont; Daniel Branch, 10th grade,Twinsburg High School; Rebecca Kuang, 12th grade, Beachwood High School; Nimisha Rajesh, 10th grade, Orange High School; and Brandon Rock, 10th grade, Solon High School. Congratulations to all! A very special thank you to The Fannie and Milly Cadkin Endowment Fund of The Montefiore Foundation for making it all possible!

Montefiore Residents to Participate in Statewide Survey We are pleased to announce Montefiore’s participation in the statewide Ohio Long-Term Care Facility Resident Satisfaction Survey. This fall and winter, every nursing home and residential care facility in the state will participate. The results from the satisfaction survey will be available to us so we can learn about what we do well and what we could do better. This year’s results will be posted on the internet in the Ohio Long-Term Care Consumer Guide (www.ltc.ohio.gov) to give consumers the opportunity to find out how residents feel about each facility. Trained interviewers from Vital Research will interview a sample of our residents. The interviews will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete and will be confidential. The survey is done with a random sampling of residents. If your family member is not selected for the survey process, or is unable to participate, please feel free to share your opinions with administration, nursing, or other department staff, as needed. Your opinions are important to us. If you have any questions about the statewide survey, please call Mark Weiss, Administrator, at 216.910.2640 or Clara Choi at Vital Research, LLC, 888.848.2555. Auxiliary Luncheon Enjoyed by All! At the Installation Luncheon of the Montefiore Auxiliary in late June, officers both outgoing and incoming, were recognized for their exemplary contributions to Montefiore. Marilyn Weinberg was installed as the organization’s new president and in her inaugural speech she emphasized the need for members to remember that everything they do should focus on the residents. She said, “It is important that we work together with each other, with the staff and with the Montefiore board because we are all concerned about the welfare of our residents.” The ceremony also paid tribute to the uniqueness of each officer by comparing her or him to a different herb. Whether it is zesty chives, longlasting dill or a harmonious partnership of oregano and basil, each officer has a unique ingredient to contribute in ensuring the organization’s success. Congratulations to Marilyn and new and returning officers, including: Claire Nash, executive vice president; Rhoda Seifert, immediate past president and fundraising chair; Andy Havas, finance chair; Linda Mintz, MoMart Gift Shop chair; Phyllis Buchler and Anita Weinberg, membership co-chairs; Alice R. Sayre, Parliamentarian; Shirley Basch, corresponding secretary; and Peggy Behrens, Darla Gordon and Mary Iammarino, programming co-chairs.

MONTEFIORE INVITES YOU TO OUR F L CHA FOLLOW YOUR HEART A well-known writer advised: If you want your life to take on meaning, paint a picture of what you want…and walk in! In other words, what’s stopping us from giving our lives a purpose and to have real energy for living? The early Zionists had the most menial jobs: laundry, tending chicken coops, the daily grind of fields and vineyards. Yet, they brought about the image and attitude of a new kind of Jew: unafraid, ready for armed defense if necessary and ready to take on any task or adversary. In other words, they felt great purpose in what they did, despite whatever tedium or hard labor was involved and they built a great army, great spirit and a great State! We know in our hearts what we truly enjoy doing, what we truly hope for…but we put these dreams off as “unrealistic,” “not possible,” “too expensive” or any number of self-defeating impulses. We have to give ourselves a chance! Take the jump and begin to self-actualize. Your dream is precious: take it, go for it. Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are great occasions for self-development – in so many ways. Don’t treat them as just a “trip to synagogue!” Make it an opportunity to discover the unuttered hopes within. We must not be afraid. “Hitch your wagon to a star,” declared one of our great American writers. Follow your heart and discover the possibilities that are yours. A most rewarding and hopeful New Year to all! “L’Shana Tova Tikatevu!” May all of us be written in God’s Book of Life for health and blessing!

This breathtaking new addition fulfills a muchneeded service for families facing end-oflife issues. The ceremony featured remarks from Lauren Rock, Montefiore president and CEO; Milton Maltz, whose lead gift from the Maltz Family Foundation, named the pavilion; Steven Willensky, chair, Montefiore board of directors, Diane Korman, director of Vinney Hospice and Palliative Care of Montefiore and City of Beachwood Mayor Merle Gorden. “With this magnificent new hospice and palliative care pavilion, we will be able to better serve the growing needs of our community – offering our compassionate care in a setting worthy of the hospice services we offer,” said Rock. “This project has been a vision of ours for several years and we are elated that on this remarkable day, this dream has come true.” The 10,000 square foot project, designed by C.C. Hodgson Architectural "IFLGV+<IB@EJ2@CC :FEJ@JKJF= square feet added to our existing building and 3,000 square feet of which will be renovated space. The 12-bed pavilion will offer living rooms, dining areas and a servery, an interactive children’s play area, a consultation room that doubles as an overnight option for families and a meditation room for quiet contemplation. Art, music, massage, and Reiki therapies will be offered throughout the pavilion and/or in patient rooms and a meeting room will be used for private family gatherings and by bereavement support groups and volunteers. With its own separate entrance and parking spaces, the pavilion will welcome family and friends visiting loved ones any time of the day or night. “It’s going to be a place of comfort, a place to ease the pain, both physical and in the heart – a place to have a last dance to “our song” – and a safe haven to finally say those words that may have eluded us all our lives: “Thank you, I’m sorry, I love you,” expressed Willensky.

As I write this letter, it has only been three short months since I came on board as your Development Director. I am both honored and humbled by the opportunity to serve in this capacity. I have just begun to see the depth of this marvelous organization. I am inspired by the work of the staff, the leadership, our board of directors and the commitment and love of our families. I have met truly extraordinary people and been welcomed by everyone throughout the building. Thank you so much to each of you who have been so gracious. I have had the opportunity to attend the 130th gala, hospice groundbreaking, a beautiful Auxiliary Installation luncheon, an annual meeting and several heartwarming services lead by Rabbi Chazin. It has been an amazing three months. I can only begin to imagine what the next months and years hold. My hope for the coming months is to have the opportunity to meet many of you; the residents, family and friends of Montefiore. It is each of you who make Montefiore the warm and welcoming place that it is. It is your commitment, dedication, volunteerism and charitable giving that provides the resources for us to support our residents. Please take the time to say hello either via email, phone or in person. It would be my pleasure to get to know you. Feel free to e-mail me at drothschild@montefiorecare.org or call me at 216.910.2633. Thank you for welcoming me in such a dynamic and meaningful way.
