October 10, 2016 //  by admin

OCES logoMany older adults experience concerns about falling and as a result restrict their activities. In response, Old Colony Elder Services (OCES), the non-profit agency proudly serving older adults and individuals with disabilities throughout greater Plymouth County and surrounding communities, recently presented “A Matter of Balance”, an award-winning program at The Pinehills in Plymouth.

Donna-Marie Forand, Healthy Living Coordinator at OCES organized A Matter of Balance, an eight-session program designed to help participants minimize the impact of falls and increase activity levels, at the Pinehills. OCES’ Matter of Balance coaches, Chrisline Denis and Primma-Latise Murry led the well-received program.

A Matter of Balance program emphasizes practical strategies to manage falls. Older adults participating in the program learned how to view falls as controllable, set goals for increasing activity, make changes to reduce fall risks at home, and exercise to increase strength and balance.

“This program is ideal for anyone who has fallen in the past, restricted their activities, or is concerned about falls, and interested in improving balance, flexibility and strength,” explained Ms. Forand.

To learn more about A Matter of Balance programs, including how you can schedule a presentation for your organization, visit www.ocesma.org or contact OCES at 508-584-1561.

Dog park effort looking good. Tracy Chevrolet Cadillac Groom-a-Thon raises funds for proposed Plymouth dog park

September 29, 2016 //  by admin

Tracy Chevrolet Cadillac hosted a Groom-a-Thon to benefit the Friends of Plymouth Dog Park, a local non-profit looking to raise funds to construct a Dog Park in West Plymouth. The fundraiser raised more than $600.
Tracy Chevrolet Cadillac hosted a Groom-a-Thon to benefit the Friends of Plymouth Dog Park, a local non-profit looking to raise funds to construct a Dog Park in West Plymouth. The fundraiser raised more than $600.

PLYMOUTH, MA…

The effort to raise funds to build a dog park in Plymouth took a step forward with a benefit dog groom-a-thon held at Tracy Chevrolet Cadillac, located at 137 Samoset Street in Plymouth. The September 17 fundraiser generated more than $600 for the Friends of Plymouth Dog Park, the local non-profit behind the plan to construct a dog park in West Plymouth.

To help raise funds and awareness, Zoomin Groomin, a local pet groomer, provided a complimentary grooming for dogs. In addition, The Friends of Plymouth Dog Park had a tent and information table where visitors could make a donation or purchase Friends of Plymouth Dog Park T-shirts and other items.

“We can’t thank Tracy Chevrolet Cadillac enough for hosting this event and for Zoomin Groomin for providing the grooming services,” said Gina Delaney, one of the Friends of Plymouth Dog Park’s organizers. “The money raised from this fundraiser will go a long way towards us achieving our goal of a dog park for West Plymouth.”

Friends of Plymouth Dog Park estimates it will cost up to $250,000 to construct a dog park in West Plymouth. Federal grant money is available for this endeavor, as long as the Town comes up with 10 percent of the construction costs first. Friends of Plymouth Dog Park, an all-volunteer organization, has taken on that task to raise the 10 percent or $25,000.

“Anybody who has been to the dealership knows we are dog lovers. We’re happy to support this effort and glad that the Groom-a-Thon put this effort one step closer to becoming a reality,” said Jeff Tracy, president of Tracy Motors.

If you were unable to attend the Groom-a-Thon, Friends of Plymouth Dog Park also have a Go Fund Me page that can be accessed on their website, www.plymouthdogs.com. To date, the group has raised $3,000.

Friends of Plymouth Dog Park is an all-volunteer organization based at 45 Minuteman Lane in Plymouth. It is currently in the application process for 501(c)(3) status and has been given permission by the State of Massachusetts to solicit funds.

If you would like more information about Friends of Plymouth Dog Park, please contact Gina Delaney at info@plymouthdogs.com.

Old Colony Elder Services Establishes Employee Wellness Program

September 26, 2016 //  by admin

OCES logoOld Colony Elder Services (OCES), the non-profit agency proudly serving older adults and individuals with disabilities throughout greater Plymouth County and surrounding communities, has recently unveiled a new Employee Wellness Program.

OCES is committed to providing programs and services to the community to promote healthy living, and that community includes their own dedicated staff. Through their Employee Wellness Program, the agency has kicked off two new components for staff – Nutrition Coaching and Family Caregiver Support Counseling.

Barbara Nalen-Cardosa, a Registered Dietician and OCES’ Nutritionist, oversees Nutrition Coaching. She will assist employees who are seeking weight management guidance, or who are adjusting their diet to better manage health conditions. Ms. Nalen-Cardosa consults with each employee, creates a personalized three-day food diary, and establishes individual goals. One of the options offered is a walking nutrition session.

Rochelle Sugarman, Outreach and Education Specialist in OCES’ Healthy Living Department, provides Family Caregiver Support Counseling. She assists employees in finding resources that will help them care for a family member or friend such as an older adult, a younger adult with disabilities, or a grandchild.

An employee’s initial Nutrition Coaching or Family Caregiver Support Counseling session lasts approximately 30 minutes and follow-up consultations are arranged to meet each individual’s need. There is no cost associated with the Employee Wellness Program or any of its components, and confidentiality is ensured.

OCES intends to expand the Employee Wellness Program and is in the process of establishing a committee of seven employees to implement additional components. The agency will be adding new wellness modules based on the results of a confidential employee survey designed to determine need.

“This is just the beginning,” said Christine McLaren, Community Programs Director. “In September, we will survey all of our 235 employees and based on those results we will expand the Employee Wellness Program to fit their most pressing concerns.”
