SUNSHINE CLUB

Two representatives from the Pop-in Care team will speak at the Sunshine Club’s weekly meeting on Dec. 9, from 10 a.m.noon in Clubhouse 3, Room 2.

This informative healthcare session, presented by registered dietitian nutritionist Jasmine El Nabli and physical therapist assistant Brooke McFerren, will cover the benefits of in-home care and the importance of living a healthy, preventative lifestyle that keeps seniors safe at home and out of the hospital.

Pop-in Care, a Parentis Health company, delivers quality in-home care to clients in both Orange County and select Los Angeles county cities. Popin Care specializes in short, 1-4 hour caregiving shifts; in addition to existing capabilities to provide around-the-clock 24-hour care. Its main focus is delighting clients and making home care simpler, affordable, flexible and efficient.

All Pop-in Care caregivers are registered home care aides, CPR certified, screened and cleared through the California Department of Social Services, and required to undergo in-field mandatory and ongoing training (including wheelchair and Hoyer lift training). All staff members are subject-matter experts when it comes to an individual’s care.

Many clients will use Pop-in Care services when they need additional support for personal hygiene, meal preparation, medication management, light housekeeping, companionship, and more. The care team respects their client’s independence, and are happy to “pop-in” as much or as little as needed.

Pop-in Care is approved by the Caregiver Resource Center of Orange County and is also an approved vendor for several long-term care insurance companies. Both Pop-in Care and Parentis Health have many clients within major 55 plus communities in the area.

The Sunshine Club requires no membership fees, but donations are welcome. Refreshments will be served at the meeting.

On Friday, Dec. 16, the Sunshine Club will hold its annual holiday 10:30 a.m.-1 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 2. Tickets are $15 per person. The club will provide sumptuous Korean buffet lunch for all who attend.

The Sunshine Club began on Jan. 12, 2012 with the mission to “Build Bridges for Brighter Leisure World,” and to help all people to get along in the community and to get the best out of living in Leisure World.
