SUMMARY:SPIRIT: Soulful Passage: An End-of-Life Doula Training and Self-Exploration Journey
DESCRIPTION:Soulful Passage: An End-of-Life Doula Training and Self-Exploration Journey \n  \nPresented by Chanie Mandel\, an End-of-Life Doula \nJoin Chanie Mandel for an insightful talk on a compassionate approach to end-of-life care. She developed the Soulful Passage curriculum and has trained six cohorts over the last 3 years\, globally\, via zoom. She will share how this training empowers doulas to provide meaningful\, heart-centered support to individuals and families navigating terminal illness. As we age\, we are often called upon to act as caregivers for loved ones and sometimes we are even drawn to walk alongside friends who are going through a medical crisis. Discover how Soulful Passage can shift your own perspective on these challenges. You will learn that speaking openly about a topic that is often considered taboo inspires greater preparedness – for yourself and those you choose to support. See how this groundbreaking\, grass roots movement is already making a difference in our frum communities. \n\nClick here to register for the Zoom link for online participation and/or to receive the recording following the program. \nThis  SPIRIT program is dedicated to the memories of Moshe Ben Dov Ber (a”h) and Shayna Mirel bas Aharon (a”h) (Melvin and Mirele Steinig) \n  \nCORPORATE SPONSORS:   \nMEMORY MATTERS — https://renayudkowsky.com/signature-course/ \nCAPITIL REAL ESTATE — https://capitil.com/ \nMEDICARE INSURANCE SPECIALIST — https://www.65andready.com/ \nFORSPANKLEAR\, LLP — https://www.forspanklear.com/ \nWINSTON WEALTH ADVISORS — https://winstonwealthadvisors.com/ou/ \nSCHWARTZ BROTHERS JEFFER/SINAI CHAPEL/PARKSIDE MEMORIAL CHAPELS — https://www.dignitymemorial.com/funeral-homes/forest-hills-ny/schwartz-brothers-jeffer-memorial-chapels/4131 \nFIRST ISRAEL MORTGAGES:  https://www.firstisrael.com/ \nJRESPONDER — https://www.sosresponder.com/ \nKORINSKY & KLEIN\, LLP —  https://www.kklawfirm.com/ \nLET’S GET ORGANIZED — https://lgorganized.com/ \n____________________________________________________________________ \nWe have created a new SPIRIT website with archives and upcoming programs!

SUMMARY:SPIRIT:  Occupational Therapy and Aging in Place
DESCRIPTION:Occupational Therapy and Aging in Place \nAlthough most older adults express a preference to age in place\, many admit they have not prepared to be able to stay in their homes as they face age-related changes. Occupational therapists can be integral partners in this process.  Occupational Therapists are well-suited to facilitate safe\, meaningful\, and sustainable aging in place.  They use specialized frameworks to capture critical components of successful aging and create actionable plans that ensure the environment\, the person\, and their occupations work well together to allow for aging in place \nUnderstanding how Occupational Therapists see the process of aging in place\, including environment modifications and community resources\, can be helpful in this journey. \npresented by Sophie Buchbinder\, OTD\, OTR/L  \nSophie Buchbinder\, OTD\, OTR/L \, is originally from Colombia\, South America and moved to the US to attend Stern College. After graduating Stern College\, she pursued a degree in Occupational Therapy at Columbia University (2013) and later a Post-Professional Doctorate from Boston University (2024)\, where her doctoral work focused on aging in place. With over a decade of experience\, she’s worked in hospital\, rehab\, and home care settings in NYC\, as well as home care and mobile outpatient roles in New Jersey\, where she now lives with her family.  Outside of clinical practice\, Sophie teaches foundational courses at a local OT program. When not working\, she loves exploring new recipes and cooking with her children. \nClick here for the Zoom link to register and receive the recording after the program. \nThis program is dedicated to the memories of Moshe Ben Dov Ber (a”h) and Shayna Mirel bas Aharon (a”h) (Melvin and Mirele Steinig) \n  \nCORPORATE SPONSORS:   \nMEMORY MATTERS — https://renayudkowsky.com/signature-course/ \nCAPITIL REAL ESTATE — https://capitil.com/ \nMEDICARE INSURANCE SPECIALIST — https://www.65andready.com/ \nFORSPANKLEAR\, LLP — https://www.forspanklear.com/ \nWINSTON WEALTH ADVISORS — https://winstonwealthadvisors.com/ou/ \nSCHWARTZ BROTHERS JEFFER/SINAI CHAPEL/PARKSIDE MEMORIAL CHAPELS — https://www.dignitymemorial.com/funeral-homes/forest-hills-ny/schwartz-brothers-jeffer-memorial-chapels/4131 \nCITIZENS BANK — https://lo.citizensbank.com/nj/woodcliff-lake/david-siegel \nJRESPONDER — https://www.sosresponder.com/ \nKORINSKY & KLEIN\, LLP —  https://www.kklawfirm.com/ \nLET’S GET ORGANIZED — https://lgorganized.com/ \n____________________________________________________________________ \nWe have created a new SPIRIT website with archives and upcoming programs!
