Cedar Community: Life the way is should be. The way you want it.

Cedar Valley Center and Spa,  located at 5349 County Road D in West Bend, welcomes Michael Mangold, M.D. of the Mangold Center for Family Health and Wellness who will discuss the New York Times bestseller, “The Maker’s Diet,” by Jordan Rubin. Join us on Sunday, Aug. 29 from 1 to 3 p.m. and learn how to eat healthy – God’s way.

“The Maker’s Diet” is described as the “40-day health experience that will change your life forever.” It is cutting-edge nutrition combined with Godly wisdom that is sure to have profound effects on health and disease prevention. The program begins with a light lunch, showcasing recipes from the book, followed by Dr. Mangold’s presentation. The cost of the program is $10 per person. Space is limited and advance registration is required. Overnight accommodations and spa services are also available if scheduled in advance.

Cedar Hospice is looking for compassionate and caring individuals who are good listeners to serve as volunteers for the Cedar home hospice program. Hospice volunteers receive eight hours of training and provide patients with companionship by spending time visiting with them, participating in a favorite hobby such as playing cards or reading. Volunteers are an important part of the hospice team, helping provide emotional and social support for those facing a terminal illness.

Each hospice volunteer is assigned to one patient and typically visits with him or her a few hours per week for as long as they wish. Our hospice volunteers can’t say enough about their hospice volunteer experience, “It is such a warm feeling inside to be helping others in need.” “A gift of presence is all some people need. No words need to be spoken.” “Giving the family comfort in their time of grief is very rewarding to me.” “I have been so inspired by being a hospice volunteer. Patients that I have visited live life to the fullest.”

Anyone interested in learning more about becoming a hospice volunteer or other volunteer opportunities available should contact Bonnie Amerling, Cedar Community volunteer coordinator, at 262.306.4218. The next hospice training is in October.

Cedar Hospice helps provide dignity, comfort and compassion to individuals with a life-limiting illness.  Cedar Hospice serves patients in their private homes, assisted living facility or skilled nursing facility in Washington, Ozaukee, Dodge, Fond du Lac, Waukesha and Sheboygan counties.  For more information visit their website at www.cedarathome.org.
