Long Term Nursing Beds Available at Montefiore

June 26, 2017 Leave a Comment

Montefiore Home has some beds available for long term care residents, receiving Medicaid or paying privately. It is never easy to find placement in a Jewish nursing home facility, but at this time Montefiore does have some open beds and is trying to get the word out to the greater Jewish community. Food is under Cleveland Kosher supervision and there are a number of other frum residents living in the building at this time. Despite the lack of regular Orthodox davening, there is a lot of support for Orthodox residents from the many Orthodox employees and various frum-friendly programs in place. Assistance is available for families to begin the process of signing up for Medicaid. For further information, please contact Admissions at 216-360-9080 or Akiva Feinstein at 216-910-2794.

Resource for Low-income Families to Save Money on Braces

January 19, 2017 1 Comment

(Reader Tip)

“Although we were wait-listed for 18 months, this organization for low-income families ended up providing braces for my child at a local, well-established orthodontist for only $650.00. We were very appreciative to the organization and satisfied with the outcome(Cleveland Orthodox Community Resident).”

(From Website of SmilesChangeLives.org)

The Virginia Brown Community Orthodontic Partnership was established in 1997 as a community-based orthodontic program to help children from families who could not afford the full cost of braces, whose self-esteem was impacted by having crooked teeth, receive orthodontic treatment. Now known as Smiles Change Lives (SCL), it has grown into a national organization with close to 750 orthodontists participating in the program. To date, nearly 10,000 children nationwide have received life-changing orthodontic treatment through SCL.

Baruch Dayan Ha’Emes – Abraham Metz.

December 11, 2016 1 Comment

candle bdeWe regret to inform you of the passing of Abraham Metz. Age 93, son of Baruch and Rosa Metz, he succumbed to cancer after a prolonged illness. He was surrounded by family members and holding the hand of his wife of 60 years, Gerda Metz. Those who knew Abraham knew that he was a tough, driven man who made great sacrifices and worked incomparably hard all his life on behalf of the family that he loved so dearly. A Holocaust survivor who experienced hell on earth, and who lost his parents and six brothers, he came to the US with nothing and through sheer will and determined hard work, in partnership with his wife, provided a loving home and a comfortable and values driven life — rife with opportunity — for his family.  [Read more…]
