A big thank you goes out to Lee Memorial Health Systems for hosting their Annual Case Manager's Meet and Greet on August 25th at the Araba Shrine Temple in Ft Myers. Vendors included assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities, home health companies, DME and other medical providers. Numerous vendors helped by donating breakfast and lunch from Panera Bread which was "yummy" to say the least. The case managers from all four Lee Memorial Hospitals came ready to hear about the services we each had to offer and not to mention get the "goodies" we all brought. Juniper Village gave away their infamous "Frog Bags" which are made of recycled bottles in support of our "Green Canopy" Program. Not only did the case managers grab the bags, but the other vendors were just as eager to get one, as well. Coincidently, we were lucky enough to have the designer of the bag, Vickie Stotler-Smith from our corporate offices, in attendance. We were pleased to share with the case managers; Juniper Village's 2013-2014 low re-hospitalization rates, which has become a main focus for hospitals today. The hospitals want to work with those who strive for successful outcomes. We at Juniper Village put the care of our residents over anything else, and I'm certain the case managers could see how well we do. All in all, we had a great turn out and met quite a few case managers and it was good to see our community colleagues all in one place.
