Annual Elders Conference

May 13, 2010 was a big day for the Haven in Allyn Assisted and long- term care, because we were one of the exhibitors at the Annual Kitsap Elders Conference. It was well attended. They were expecting 600. This was the first booth that the Haven in Allyn has done. I believe we made an impact. Tom and Debra talked to over 200 people. We pasted out 130 free lunch coupons. Gave out over 300 ink pens and lots of brochures. The keynote speaker Margie Jenkins, MSW, LPC, LMFT is nationally recognized for her work with end-of-life planning issues. The name of her speech says it all Live Bodacious and Finish Well. The Haven in Allyn was also made a member of Kitsap Alliance of Resources for Elders (KARE). This is a major accomplishment for the Haven in Allyn. This organization consist of group of professionals that are the absolute best in their field. There is Randy Hardin of Abiding Home Care, Attorney Richard Tizzano, Dr. Narinder Duggal of Liberty Bay Internal Medicine just to name a few. This organization is going to be very beneficial in giving the Haven in Allyn the exposure it deserves.

We are an assisted living facility on the Olympic Peninsula close to the Seattle-Tacoma metropolitan area. Our intention is to serve the community of the aged and aging and those who care for them. As an assisted living facility, we know the questions and concerns that attend an aging loved one. Regardless of your choice of care, we would like to make ourselves, our facility, and our network of shared interest available to all who participate in the world of assisting the elderly.

After all, we all will one day face aging.

At Haven in Allyn we believe the spirit doesn't change just because we lose the capability of our physical body. We choose to honor the spirit as the true state of the person and service the physical needs accordingly. We celebrate each life...aging is only a natural culmination to, hopefully, a life well lived.

So, our hope with this blog is to share experiences and the wisdom gained through working with our residents, caregivers, and families and to encourage you, the readers, to participate with your own experiences, too.
