Caring about and for family and friends, Janice Lombardo has over 20 years' experience as a medical advocate, caregiver and cancer survivor. In October 2007, she was recommended for and recruited to be a volunteer on the Patient and Family Partnership Council, Acute Care, Cleveland Medical Center, University Hospitals, Cleveland, Ohio. Since 2007, she has continued to provide both patient and caregiver perspectives to help improve hospital systems directives and protocols for relationship-based and patient-centered care. In October 2008, she completed online coursework through the University of Tasmania, Wicking Dementia Research and Education Centre, earning Dementia certification credits. This certification provided a better understanding of what the brain and body experience during all stages of dementia and Alzheimer's decline. Taking advantage of being at home during Covid, Janice became a certified End-of-Life Doula (CEOLD) through online coursework at the International Association of Professions Career College (IAP Career College) in April 2020. Janice is enthusiastic about helping others discuss and prepare for not only their own end of life wishes, but those of their loved one's as well. We plan for birth and we need to plan for death too. As a passionate diversity and inclusion advocate, in May 2021, she completed her SAGECare (Senior Action in a Gay Environment) Platinum Level LGBT Cultural Competency Training to better serve those LGBT Seniors and their caregivers and provide support in other underserved communities. Also in May 2021, she became a published author with 10 other End-of-Life Doula's. “Bold Spirit Caring for the Dying” is a global collaborative project, sharing stories of why these End-of-Life Doula's are drawn to this important work.A teacher at heart, Janice became a certified WillowEOL Educator in December 2021. She has multiple resources available to present in-person along with virtual presentations to those taking charge of creating their final wishes. She has and continues to lovingly provide physical, psychological and psychosocial holistic support to those in transition helping to ease the burden on themselves and their loved ones. In February 2022, Janice became a member of The Association of Specialists in Aging (ASANEO.ORG). This local organization exists to create a network of successful professional relationships that facilitates change for the improvement of life and promote the well-being of older adults through education, support and service. In March 2022, Janice was featured in Mimi Magazine for her work as an End-of-Life Doula. This article gives more information and insight into what this important work entails and how Janice is working to help support, guide and educate people in the community to proactively have the difficult but loving conversations about Directive Plans and Final Wishes. Visit Janice's website: www.myangeljaniceceold.com or Mimi Magazine's website: www.mimivanderhaven.com to see the article in the March issue on page 26 or under health and wellness.In June 2022, Janice attended PASS, another organization focused on working to support seniors at any stage of life and partner with other businesses who provide these services to improve their quality of life.

A survey by the Coalition for Aging LGBT found that 95% of the LGBT senior community said their number one concern was housing. It's a challenge for the LGBT community to find senior living largely due to fear of discrimination. In turn, many will go back into the closet at a time in their lives they should be able to be themselves. The Coalition for Aging LGBT works to Improve and protect the quality of life of older LGBT adults in North Texas for health, housing, advocacy, financial security, and social services - giving back to a generation that had to fight for their rights and the status quo. Senior Services Expert Lori Williams welcomes Founding Board Member, Treasurer, and Chairman of the Housing Committee Robert Emery, along with Executive Director Dr. Diane E. Thornton, to discuss: - The research the Coalition for Aging LBQT has conducted around North Texas senior living - Cultural training and process improvements in 17 senior communities in Dallas, Tarrant, Denton, and Collin counties - Their senior housing guide resource - Tips for being more inclusive in everyday conversation And more. Topics discussed:- LGBT seniors- Senior communities- Microaggressions - LGBT housing and advocacy - North Texas assisted living- LGBT-inclusive practices Takeaways from this episode: - The Coalition for Aging LGBT assessed 17 senior living communities in Dallas, Tarrant, Denton, and Collin counties on policies, procedures, programs and competency training to create the LGBT-Friendly Senior Housing Guide. - The coalition did a survey in 2013 and discovered 95% of the LGBT senior community said their number one concern was housing. - Many LGBT seniors worry about getting home help and being treated fairly and if they would be welcome as they are in an assisted living facility. - Simple practices - like adding “Partnered” to an entry form for marital status and adding “I prefer not to answer” or “ask me later” to gender - help enhance inclusivity. - When unsure about someone's gender, ask which pronouns they prefer. Avoid asking “What are you?” - Most LGBT seniors don't wish to be in LGBT-only housing. They want to be in the world and interact with a variety of people who are also culturally competent.

LGBT adults face many unique challenges as they age. They are generally an underserved and understudied aging population. Fear of discrimination contributes to poor health – with more than 20% reporting not having told health care providers of their sexual orientation. Social support consists of friends and partners of the same age, as most do not have children and are long estranged from families of origin. Fear of violence keeps many isolated in their homes and historical job losses have left many impoverished. The national Alzheimer's Association has expressed concern about the growing numbers of LGBT seniors living alone with developing dementia. In recent years, local and national organizations have developed to address many of these challenges. Our show will highlight one such program and one such leader working to make a difference. Karen McPhail will discuss why this work is so necessary and how you, as an individual can either find the support you need or ways to help.

James Ciervo is the Regional Chapter Director (New York) of the Twilight Wish Foundation, a national organization in the business of making older adults happy. On the show today, he talks about the range of wishes granted by the Foundation, from providing a stair lift or a hearing aid to an older adult to celebrating older veterans, granting LGBT senior wishes and fulfilling an older adult's dream to fly in a fighter jet. A lifelong healthcare worker who specializes in senior therapeutic recreation, James also tells us how his early days as a hairdresser sparked his dedication to older adults—starting with an 84-year-old client he transported from her home to the salon—and how it led to his career at a nursing home where the residents have become like family. He tells us how a trip to Thailand influenced his views on American healthcare, how his mother's cancer led to his working briefly with the American Cancer Society and about the loss of his partner and his mother, each of whom James is honoring by granting Twilight wishes on their behalf.
