#1 - Finding Home Again!
There are more types of care facilities than what most of us are typically exposed to. Besides the large heavily advertised assisted and independent living facilities, there are other options including small, intimate homes serving six or fewer elderly residents. Learn from Kimberly Noyse, the founder and leader at Melody Care Homes, about what it takes to live a life of service by managing smaller, more personal care homes. You might be surprised in hearing some of the more personal and joyful stories, including some unique challenges.
There are good care facilities out there, but you need to do some serious research before signing on and moving your loved ones. Learn ways to evaluate a care facility to make sure it’s the right place to move someone you love into, if or when necessary.
Guest: Kimberly Adcox Noyse, founder and former of three personal aging care homes.

Situational Awareness: Do You Know What You've Gotten Into?
Show Host: Nancy May, Author How to Survive 911 Medical Emergencies, Step-by-Step Before, During, After! Expert in managing the path of step-by-step caring for an aging parent or family member, even from over 1200 miles away, or more. For a Free File-of-Life to www.howtosurvive911.com
Guest: Colonel Brian Searcy (Ret) USAF, CEO, the Paratus Group
Have you ever had that funny feeling that something just wasn’t right? Or walked into a care facility and thought, things look good but what am I missing? Or I’m afraid that mom’s not telling me everything I need to know? In some circles that’s called intuition, others, gut instinct, and some even call it ESP. Some of us may know that’s the part of our human makeup that keeps us safe, yet many of us don’t know how to use that “feeling” or instinct to keep our parents, family, and ourselves safe. Listen to this discussion, with our guest, Colonel Brian Searcy, who describes what to listen for in your guts, how to hone that skill, and what we can do to sharpen that natural born instinct that can mean a better road ahead for those we know and love. It’s called understanding about and working with situational awareness.
Colonel Searcy, the founder of The Paratus Group, was a decorated combat veteran and had a senior leadership career in the USAF. He now teaches how to be more aware of potential threats that may erupt around us, whether from being in your own home, in a care facility, doctor’s office, hospital, or just sitting at a restaurant.
