 Eldercare Network was started to meet the needs of low-income seniors in Lincoln County when they are no longer able to be independent at home or in their own apartment. We started with this home, Hodgstein Green. Then we have six of the homes in Lincoln County. Folks that live here or in any of our homes, their own bosses, they take care of themselves but if they need any assistance we help them. We tried to get to know them well enough so that we can individualize their care and what brings them joy. I have my two raucous chairs that I had at home and all my bedding that's on the bed and my bureau, the chest of drawers I brought and the two stands so it's very like home. Every time I go out I'm just glad to get back here. It's like home. To me it is home. We have different activities. It's what the residents want. Things like musicians coming in to entertain, ice cream socials on the porch, rides to have a good point. We plan a lot of different activities that usually last the whole day. It's just a lot of fun. It's a whole joy to be here. They have to have bingo every Monday. We play bino. That's my favorite. The lady at plays the bingo. She is a daughter of one of the residents that live here. She got little prizes for them and they love it. We have a wonderful art class every Tuesday morning since the beginning of time. I like to sit on the porch. I go take a walk. Every day I take a walk up and down the road. This afternoon we're going to have an ice cream social. We have a fellow Joe Brennan who comes every other Friday in the summer and sings a lot of Irish tunes. We're very close to town. We're about a five-minute walk. We were very committed to choosing sites when we were developing our six other homes so that they would be close to the downtown community. It's very important to have the screen local because they're still able to attend the local churches, visit with their friends that they've had living here all along, and they really enjoy still being included with their community. I was lucky, very lucky to still live in Boothay. Lots of times when our seniors come into our homes, they're very frail. And they don't have to do anything they don't want. They don't have to take care of anything. They don't have to worry about the heat this winter. Because of the stimulation they get and the support we give them, they become better and they blossom and they're able to do things that they maybe never have done before. They get to rest. And so every ounce of their energy gets to be about them for them to them. This is a great place. You don't have to do your laundry. You don't have to get the meals. When we hire staff we're looking for people who love to be with other people. The staff and the residents get pretty close. They're very nice. They're good to me. I love working here because of the residents and being here to help them enjoy everything every moment of every day. They all seem to get along at night. They're all suddenly. And the people are so nice. I like working here because of the residents. They're all just wonderful. Each one is unique. It's just so nice to get to know each one. I love being with these people. It's a family. We're all a family here. It's just wonderful. The staff here is just wonderful to me. We're very fortunate because a lot of the families of our residents come in and give of their time in many, many different ways and they really enrich each home. I'm near enough my children, my grandchildren can come in. Most of the families here are immediate. So they do come and visit. Families are fantastic. They give a lot. They're really a good solid piece of the whole picture. I like it here. Oh, I like here. I like everything about it. I adore it. This place is something else. I've been a lot of places, Greenville, every place, but this is tops. I love it here. I'm so happy at Booth Day Green. I would recommend Wisconsin Green just for all the love and care we give them. I like it here very much. Very happy here.
