For 73-year-old Larry Swaziek, there’s no place like home. It’s where he feels comfortable, it’s where he knows people, and it’s where he’s grateful that he could receive long-term care following an alarming incident earlier this year that left him unable to walk.

For three weeks, Larry took advantage of the Swing Bed program at Emplify Health by Gundersen Friendship Hospital. It’s a Medicare-covered, hospital-based program for patients who no longer need inpatient, acute care services but are not ready to go home and still require some rehabilitation and/or nursing services. Read more about the care Larry received:

Last week we presented the Aging Department of Adams County Health & Human Services with a check for over $300 raised through our staff pumpkin decorating contest, coordinated by our Activities Committee!

The money will help fund the department's "Blizzard Boxes" for their home delivered meals program. When meals cannot be delivered due to bad weather, home-bound individuals may not have anything to eat that day. The blizzard boxes are delivered at the start of the winter season to be kept in the recipients' homes to be used as replacement meals when home delivered or dining site meals can't be provided.

The Aging Department's Nutrition Program is currently accepting donations to purchase contents for the boxes. Suggestions are: individual boxes of raising, peanut butter or cheese crackers, canned meat (tuna, chicken, sardines, salmon, low sodium ham), canned or dried beans, rice, low sodium ravioli, macaroni and cheese, water packed fruits, sugar free jelly, puddings and jello, low sodium soups or vegetables, tea bags, hot chocolate, bottled water, powered milk and individual juice containers. If interested in providing assistance, please contact the department directly at (608) 339-4251.

Who won the pumpkin contest? The entry that raised the most money was "Witches Brew", seen in the background of the check presentation photo below. The pumpkin was submitted by the Quality/Infection Control/Patient Accounts/Prior Authorization Departments. Thank you to all who decorated a pumpkin and those who voted with their donation of cash and coin!
