Board of Aging Updates, Yvonne Mendenhall <br />• LTC Learning Collaborative is working on LTC Initiative with programs /agencies (Livewell <br />was the only ALF). NH CAC met with them to increase outreach to facilities that they visit, <br />to increase positive interactions. The initiative now wants to extend this program to all and <br />encourages us to participate by sharing Smile Surprises with caregivers, residents, and <br />others to express thanks, recognition, gratitude, kindness. <br />• Yvonne passed out samples of the Smile Surprises that they have created. Our committee <br />expressed interest in participating as well and are willing to help put the packages <br />together and take them to our facilities. <br />• Ideas for future — (1) fundraising, (2) having residents help put these together. Activities <br />directors seem to like the idea and have been very receptive. <br />• We discussed possible conflicts and concluded there is no conflict in bringing little gifts of <br />kindness — even on site visits <br />• Cheri Roseman of the LTC Learning Collaborative coming to our January meeting. <br />Visitation Reports <br />Cedar Grove #1 & #2 (10/20/16) - approved <br />Charles House — Yorktown (10120116) - approved <br />Charles House — Winmore (8/9/16) - approved <br />Housekeeping <br />Next meeting scheduled for January 19, 2017. <br />Adjournment <br />Upon completion of its business, the Committee voted to adjourn at 5:25 pm. <br />Minutes submitted by Deborah Stewart, Secretary. <br />
