Saturday, January 5, 2019, the family of the Ron S! Charitable Fund held a gathering in the PPH Private Dining Room to honor the spirit of giving of Ron Silberstein. PPH Independent Living residents Marge and Tom Sexton (mother and stepfather of Ron), and Ron’s brother, Joe Silberstein, formally presented a check in the amount of $3,610 to PPH employees including: President & CEO, Anthony Manzo; Sr. Dir. of Resident Life & Performance Improvement, Jennifer Honeyford; and Director of Development, Deanna Keough.
Family and friends contributed to the Fund’s campaign held over the holiday season enabling the gift to be made to PPH for the purchase of the Second Wind Dreams Virtual Dementia Tour. The Virtual Dementia Tour is a technology that allows caregivers and family members of loved ones living with dementia to experience the challenges of the disease. Jennifer Honeyford will implement the program at PPH for staff training and education to support the mission of providing quality care to all seniors.
Ongoing updates regarding the PPH Virtual Dementia program can be found on the PPH website and Facebook page after its implementation. Learn more about the Ron S! Charitable Fund.
