Dannon eyes space in White Plains BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com
THE DANNON CO. INC. IS considering shifting its headquarters to downtown White Plains, a move that would scoop at least 300 employees from the yogurt producer’s
current home in Greenburgh. Dannon, a subsidiary of the French company Danone, applied to the White Plains Common Council for a zoning change in September that would allow it to operate at The Source at White Plains building at 100
Bloomingdale Road. If the zoning amendment is approved by the city, Dannon would be cleared to occupy 80,000 square feet on the first and fourth floors of the 240,000-square-foot building, which is also occupied by Whole Foods, Dicks Sporting Goods, The Cheesecake Factory and Raymour and Flanigan, among other office and retail tenants. The Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors moved its offices to a 16,000-square-foot space in the building this year. Dannon spokesman Michael Neuwirth confirmed that the company is considering the move, but said any decision is still dependent on a “contingent of factors.” Dannon is in the process of filing
ather than rely on the regulatory process, U.S. Rep. Sean Maloney wants to use legislation to block new barge anchorages in the Hudson River. The U.S. Coast Guard is considering a proposal to establish 10 anchorages along a 109-mile stretch of the Hudson from Yonkers to Kingston. The sites would accommodate up to 43 vessels. Maloney’s Hudson River Protection Act would block new anchorages that are within
applications with the White Plains Common Council, Westchester County Industrial Development Agency and the state’s economic development office, Empire State Development, he said. “We recognize the efforts of the state of New York, county of Westchester and city of White Plains to keep us in the area, which we’ve called home for more than 20 years,” Neuwirth said in an email. Dannon sells a line of more than 200 dairy products nationwide and is known especially for yogurt. The company is headquartered at 100 Hillside Ave. in the town of Greenburgh. Dannon has been in Greenburgh since 2003, when it signed a 14-year lease at the
five miles of an environmental Superfund site, nuclear power plant, locations on the National Register of Historic Places or habitats for endangered species. In other words, no new anchorages could be established. “I don’t see it as my job to sit back and hope that some bureaucrat does their job,” Maloney, a Democrat representing the midHudson Valley, said at an Oct. 3 press conference. “It’s not my experience that you can always count on a good result,” he said, speaking along the riverfront in Newburgh, “so I intend to use every tool in my kit to stop this idea.” » MALONEY, page 6
Hillside Avenue location. The property is owned by Alfred Weissman Real Estate LLC, a Rye-based real estate owner and developer. A representative from Alfred Weissman declined to comment on the possibility of Dannon leaving when reached by phone. Greenburgh Town Supervisor Paul Feiner said he has written a letter to Dannon encouraging the company to stay. “If they do leave, we will work with Mr. Weissman to try to find a suitable use for the property,” Feiner said. “But Dannon has been a fantastic neighbor and it has been a great location and good relationship, so obviously we were disappointed.” » DANNON, page 6

Designing women find niche with newly single men

A
marriage’s demise is a painful time for everyone involved, but two Westchester women aim to alleviate at least part of that stress by helping the newly single begin a new chapter in a new home. Targeted toward men who are going through a separation or divorce, SimplyHome2 is a lifestyle and design company founded by Patty Frischman and Tanhya Schimel, residents of Bedford and Armonk respectively, that coordinates the logistics of settling into a new home. “We know how it can be difficult to get a house ready on your own, plus going through a divorce and separation, we figured this service would be a huge asset,” Schimel said. SimplyHome2 aims to assist in

that transition and take some of the headache out of the moving-in process by making a client’s new residence less of a bachelor pad and more of a home. “Oftentimes they’re coming with a suitcase and a laptop and very few belongings,” Frischman said of her newly single clients. But the pair is quick to point out that their company is not any interior design firm. Available to clients in New York, Connecticut and New Jersey, the company handles everything from stocking homes with kitchen and cleaning supplies to hiring contractors and coordinating with outside vendors. “If the cable (company) is coming, we’re there to meet them,” Schimel said. SimplyHome2 also places a strong focus on easing the transition for their clients’ children and making their second home as warm and welcoming as possible. “Through the client, we really get to
know the kids and what their interests are,” Frischman said. From there, Frischman and Schimel can then stock game rooms with favorite toys or stuffed animals, make sure there are air mattresses or linens for sleepovers and take into consideration any favorite colors or sports teams when decorating bedrooms. “It’s those little touches and those types of little things we do that make it feel really comfortable, so they really enjoy going to dad’s,” Frischman said. Frischman, a mother of three who went through a divorce of her own, said the idea for the company began forming when she “was part interested, slash, kind of concerned about what it was like at dad’s.” “I didn’t want them to feel that suitcase kid syndrome,” she said of her children. “We had a very nice comfortable home and I wanted that to sort of be an extension at dad’s of their home and their comforts.” Frischman also noticed a trend of newly divorced men who were “moving from their large, beautiful homes and were living like minimalists.” The duo, who met through their significant others roughly four years ago, said this new company combines their strengths: Frischman’s eye for design and Schimel’s planning and organizational skills. Prior to starting the venture, Schimel, who has three stepchildren and a daughter on the way, worked in finance for six years before serving as the executive director of A Little Hope, a children’s bereavement charity. Frischman’s background is in the fashion industry, where she held positions from retail analyst at Guess to spearheading a new juniors clothing division at J&R Wholesale. SimplyHome2 relies largely on word-ofmouth referrals from former clients, matchmakers and real estate brokers. “Divorce attorneys are a huge resource for us,” Frischman said. In addition to a typical upfront cost of $5,000, SimplyHome2’s fees vary based on the size and scope of the project, Frischman said. While many of the company’s clients are able to afford high-end decorators, the pair said the variety of services SimplyHome2 offers sets it apart from other interior design firms. “The high-end decorators don’t want to deal with the nitty-gritty, little things,” Schimel said. “It’s not like (the clients) have to delegate and tell their assistants or whoever, ‘I need this, this and that’ when they don’t even know what they need,” Frischman said. “We are one step. We do it all for them. They don’t have to think about anything. They can focus on work, they can focus on their kids, focus on whatever else they’re going through.”

MORTGAGE SERVICER BUYS BACK FORECLOSED PLATINUM MILE PROPERTY
3 Westchester Park Drive
A SPECIAL LOAN SERVICER RECENTLY paid $2.29 million at a foreclosure auction to buy back from a court-appointed referee a largely vacant Platinum Mile office building whose previous owner defaulted on a $28.8 million mortgage nearly three years ago. A state Supreme Court judge in White Plains last year issued a judgment for approximately $33.64 million, together with interest costs, against the owners of 3 Westchester Park Drive in Harrison, Dryland Gannett 3 LLC and investor George Economou. Dryland Gannett is an entity of
Heritage Realty Services LLC in Manhattan, which owns and operates two other office buildings in Westchester Park Center, the former Gannett Office Park. The four-story Class B office building at 3 Westchester Park Drive sold for $35.3 million in 2006, when the new owner secured a $28.8 million mortgage with Royal Bank of Scotland’s financial products company. The loan was packaged to investors in a commercial mortgage-backed securities offering and was turned over in early 2014 to LNR Partners, a special loan servicer in Miami Beach. The special servicer began foreclosure proceedings that year, claiming the office owner at the time owed approximately $27.1 million in principal on the defaulted loan. The mortgage default followed Heritage Realty’s loss of its largest tenant at 3 Westchester Park Drive three years ago, when Wilson Elser Moskowitz Edelman & Dicker LLP, Westchester County’s largest law practice, relocated from its 142,000-squarefoot space there. Westfair Communications Inc., the Business Journal’s parent company, is the building’s sole remaining occupant.
Normandy Real Estate Partners. The 73-year-old financial services company has leased 29,000 square feet of office space at 701 Westchester Ave. in White Plains, relocating from Normandy’s 108 Corporate Park Drive in Harrison, where it leased 34,000 square feet of space on two floors. The deal was announced by Choyce Peterson Inc., the commercial real estate brokerage and consulting firm with offices in Rye Brook and Norwalk. Choyce Peterson principals John P. Hannigan and Alan R. Peterson represented the tenant in lease negotiations, while Brian Carcaterra, senior vice president in the Stamford office of CBRE Group Inc., represented the landlord. After the firm was approached by Normandy about relocating its headquarters within The Exchange, Pentegra CEO John Pinto said the Choyce Peterson brokers “expertly guided us through a complex negotiation where we were ultimately able to take already competitive average occupancy costs and lower them by 20 percent, while increasing layout efficiency.” The deal also includes future space adjustment rights for Pentegra, he said.

HOULIHAN LAWRENCE RESTORES FOUNDING OFFICE IN BRONXVILLE
PENTEGRA RETIREMENT SERVICES HAS RELOCATED its Westchester headquarters on the Platinum Mile in a move between office parks in The Exchange portfolio of
OWNERS AND STAFF AT HOULIHAN LAWRENCE, the residential and commercial real estate brokerage headquartered in Rye Brook, recently celebrated the reopening of the
firm’s historically restored original office at 4 Valley Road in Bronxville. A former gatehouse on the estate of James Minot Prescott, the building was acquired in 1888 by the firm’s founder, William Van Duzer Lawrence, when he purchased the estate property as the future site of his Lawrence Park homes. The gatehouse was converted into a sales office for the development, which was modeled on artist colonies of France’s Fontainebleau Forest, according to Houlihan Lawrence. Houlihan Lawrence now has 30 offices and 1,300 agents in the northern suburbs of New York City. The Bronxville brokerage has been managed by Cynthia Landis since 2007. “We’re proud of our Bronxville heritage and deep roots in the community,” she said at the grand reopening last month. “This very building was the birthplace of Houlihan Lawrence, and after 128 years we’re still here and thriving.” —John Golden

Touro shows off new dental college VALHALLA CAMPUS IS NEW YORK’S FIRST DENTAL SCHOOL IN NEARLY 50 YEARS
BY ALEESIA FORNI aforni@westfairinc.com
T
ouro College University System unveiled its College of Dental Medicine at New York Medical College in Hawthorne in September, the state’s first dental school in nearly half a century. The 100,000-square-foot school boasts a 112-seat simulation lab complete with mannequin patients, a 132-chair community clinic, pediatric dentistry and oral surgery clinics, two 120-seat auditoriums, a library, an exercise facility and a 2,000-square-foot student lounge. The school at 19 Skyline Drive is adjacent to the medical college’s Grasslands campus in Valhalla and takes up residence in what was a 249,000-square-foot former IBM office building in Mack-Cali Realty Corp.’s Mid-Westchester Executive Park. The vacant five-story building was purchased by the medical college for $17.5 million in 2013. Touro College, the New York City-based nonprofit Jewish institution that acquired New York Medical College in 2011, received roughly $3.7 million in state funding through educational capital and local assistance grants earlier this year.

Having welcomed its inaugural class of 111 dental students in July, the college became the first dental school approved by the state Board of Regents since Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine opened in 1968. The school marks the 66th collegiate program in the country and only the fifth in the state. Others include University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine, Columbia University College of Dental Medicine and New York University College of Dentistry. New York’s population has grown by 4.5
million people in the nearly 50 years since its last dental school opened, according to Touro officials, and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services projects the state to have a shortage of 1,024 dentists by 2025. Alan Kadish, president of Touro College and University System, said this new school aims to address that projected shortage. Kadish said the school “will fill a void in dental education and improve access to oral health care” particularly in the region’s underserved rural and urban communities.
When fully activated, the school will accommodate roughly 440 students. Firstand second-year students will study core science education, while those in their third and fourth years of the program will focus on clinical study and begin working with human patients. The school will also offer postdoctoral training in several subspecialties. Touro College estimates that its student- and faculty-run community dental clinic, which takes up about half of its facility, will accommodate more than 80,000 patient visits each year. Kadish said that while the clinic will be open to the public, it will focus on providing affordable treatment for patients in underserved communities in the Hudson Valley and the Bronx. The clinic will also offer continuing education programs for practicing dentists. “The Touro College of Dental Medicine is a great addition to Westchester’s list of medical education institutions,” Westchester County Executive Robert P. Astorino said. “Not only will this be extremely beneficial to the county and our dental professional community, but it continues to put Westchester on the map as a leading destination for the medical and biotech industry.” Tuition and fees at the dental school total roughly $60,000 per year, according to Touro College of Dental Medicine’s website, dental.touro.edu. Including room, board and other living expenses, yearly costs are expected to total $94,000.

Maloney — » » From page 1
Maritime interests proposed the anchorages in January as a way to safely park tugboats, barges and other large vessels during emergencies and adverse conditions. The proposed locations, according to industry groups, are places where crews have customarily parked to wait out storms and wait for high tide. But last year the Coast Guard put the industry on notice. Commercial vessels could anchor only in approved locations, except in cases of great emergency. The only official anchorage between Yonkers and Albany is at Hyde Park, with room for only three vessels. The proposed anchorages are opposed by a broad coalition of environmentalists who have worked to clean up the Hudson and government officials and private developers who have invested in residential and commercial developments at abandoned industrial sites. They fear that more barges will damage spawning grounds for endangered species such as the Atlantic and shortnosed sturgeon. They fear that barges will leak toxic substances or will interfere with recreational boaters. They fear that more barges will ruin pristine vistas that have supported tourism and economic development along the river. “This is a dirty idea,” state Assemblyman Frank Skartados, 100th District, said at the

White Plains Mayor Thomas Roach said the potential move is great news for the city. “These are people that are going to go out to lunch every day and stay and eat after work,” Roach said at a Common Council meeting on Oct. 3. While Dannon’s headquarters would be primarily office space, it would also include an area for testing and limited production of food products, according to its filing with the city. Rezoning the 100 Bloomingdale Road property for “accessory food laboratory” use would allow for that. The Common Council referred Dannon’s request for a zoning change to different city departments and boards for review. The Source at White Plains was developed in 2002 as a collaboration between Fortunoff, a home and jewelry retailer, and R-Squared LLC, a development partnership in New York City.

press conference. “It’s turning the Hudson River into a parking lot that probably has Pete Seeger turning in his grave.” Any time you get environmentalists and real estate interests united on an issue, said Assemblyman James Skoufis, 99th District, “that’s when you know it’s a really, really bad idea.” Maloney alluded to speculation that oil traders want to use the Hudson as a staging area while prices on the oil market rise and fall. He said existing anchorages are adequate, particularly as oil prices have fallen. In any event, he does not want to see more oil shipped on the river, creating a de facto pipeline on the Hudson even as oil is being shipped by rail along the west bank of the river. “I don’t oppose all commercial activity on the river,” he said. The question is whether more movement of oil on the river poses a “risk to everything we care about in the river and the development of the waterfronts.” He said his bill has broad, bipartisan support. So far, U.S. Rep. Eliot Engel, a Democrat representing parts of Westchester County and the Bronx, has co-sponsored the bill. Initially, opponents were alarmed that the Coast Guard was taking public comments on the proposal only until early September. The schedule has since been extended to Dec. 6, and as of Oct. 3 the public has submitted 2,932 comments. After the Coast Guard analyzes the
comments, it could revise the proposed rule, hold public hearings or undertake an environmental impact study. The regulatory process could go on for a couple of years before Rear Adm. Steven Poulin, commander of the First Coast Guard

The building is owned by Bloomingdale Road Investors LLC, a unit of the Swiss global financial services company UBS, which bought the property in 2005 for $153 million. In March, The Wilder Cos. of Boston was awarded the leasing and management contract for the building. Dannon scheduled to present its plans to the Westchester County IDA on Oct. 6. While the IDA was unable to provide documents related to the application before it was presented, William Mooney III, the executive director of the Westchester IDA, said that the agency could provide sales tax exemptions on items required for renovation or construction. “We are thrilled that Dannon is considering this investment in Westchester County and move in order to keep these jobs and their employees in New York state,” Mooney said. “And we will do everything we can to assist in their efforts.”

Mayors discuss future they’re not sure how to pay for BY KEVIN ZIMMERMAN kzimmerman@westfairinc.com
S
ustainability, resilience, prosperity, opportunity — and transportation — were the main issues discussed at the recent “Outlook for the Future” forum featuring six city leaders in Connecticut and Westchester County at the University of Connecticut’s Stamford campus. Moderated by Melissa Kaplan-Macey, Connecticut director of Regional Plan Association CT, the Sept. 29 panel — sponsored by the Hartford-based Construction Institute — included New Rochelle Mayor Noam Bramson, New Haven Mayor Toni Harp, Stamford Mayor David Martin, Norwalk Mayor Harry Rilling, White Plains Mayor Thomas Roach and Fairfield First Selectman Mike Tetreau. Kaplan-Macey set the forum’s tone with a PowerPoint presentation titled “Charting a New Course.” The group estimates that with sufficient housing and infrastructure capacity the tristate region could gain an estimated 1.9 million jobs by 2040, adding $760 billion to the region’s economy and offering more chances for employment and higher incomes. Accomplishing that would require a
number of initiatives, she said, including adding jobs in poor cities and neighborhoods by 25 percent; growing multifamily homes in affluent towns and neighborhoods by more than 50 percent; reducing the average share of income going to housing and transportation to 45 percent from the 51 percent it said was spent from 200913; and increasing the number of homes affordable to low-income households to more than two-thirds of rentals and a quarter of owner-occupied homes. Kaplan-Macey also called for continued reduction in greenhouse gases, renewed emphasis on walking and bicycle riding, and reducing vulnerability of the nearly 2.2 million regional residents who face significant flooding issues by 2050 due to the changing environment and its effect on weather patterns. Regarding flood vulnerability, Tetreau noted that most of Fairfield is at sea level. He also said that millennials typically are no longer seeking to buy big properties, preferring to live in smaller houses or apartments in close proximity to downtown areas, train stations and the like. Asked how he’d like New Rochelle to look in 25 years, Bramson replied, “We build a big, beautiful seawall all around New Rochelle and make Stamford pay for
it,” a joke well-received by Stamford’s mayor Martin. New Rochelle’s mayor went on to say that he’d like to see his city enhance and strengthen the qualities it now has, reclaim its waterfront from public works yards for public use and continue to improve its appeal to New Rochelle’s “very diverse” population. Martin, calling Stamford “the most diverse metropolitan area in Connecticut,” said his town needed to seriously address senior housing before longtime residents find themselves priced out of the market. Roach, characterizing White Plains as “the fastest-growing city in New York,” said he expected that growth to continue. If one goes to the White Plains train station, he said, nearly the same amount of people arrive to work in White Plains as leave to commute to Manhattan or other destinations. Much work can still be done around the train station, he said, as far as adding retail and other attractions to make the area more appealing. Roach also said that the town’s walkability can be improved: “We have six-lane roads. It’s a Frogger situation,” he said, referring to the popular 1980s video game, “when you want to cross one of these roads.” Affordable housing remains White Plains’ greatest challenge, he concluded. Rilling touted Norwalk’s significant changes over the past several years, mov-
ing away from its ’70s-era nickname “hole in the doughnut” — signifying the economic and social problems that set it apart from its wealthier surrounding neighbors like Darien, Westport, Wilton, Weston and New Canaan — by developing its urban core. Naming several of Norwalk’s recently completed or in-progress redevelopment projects, Rilling said such initiatives as his Bike/Walk Task Force, composed of residents and business owners charged with helping to make the town’s streets and sidewalks safer, will help establish “Norwalk as being the destination we always thought it should be.” Harp maintained that Connecticut “should be run like a county,” with the state establishing regional governing bodies instead of leaving its 169 towns to fend for themselves. She also decried the state’s byzantine highway system, saying that it had taken her two hours to travel that day the 40-mile distance from New Haven to the forum, and that a recent trip to Brooklyn by train took her four-and-a-half hours. More efficient transit options would be a boon in attracting business to the state, the group agreed. The panel also discussed how to raise more money in taxes for education, development and other causes. Suggestions ranged from Rilling’s 1 percent city sales tax added on top of the state tax to Harp’s suggestion that the state, rather than cities, should pay for public education.
The causes of Orangutan extinction are crystal clear. Did you know that palm oil, found in half of all packaged goods in your local grocery store, is driving the last stands of orangutans, elephants, tigers, and rhinos to extinction?
The company is now positioned at a crossroads and as a member of PepsiCo’s community, or perhaps an employee of the company, you play a crucial role in making a difference on this issue.
Global snack food giant PepsiCo uses hundreds of thousands of tons of Conflict Palm Oil every year as critically important ecosystems like the Leuser Ecosystem in Sumatra, Indonesia are being destroyed right before our eyes to produce the stuff.
For our community here in and around Westchester and Fairfield Counties, and for the communities impacted by the spread of conflict palm oil, we must demand better. If we lead, PepsiCo’s executives will follow. We need your help!

Boot camp teaches creative types how to build a business BY RYAN DEFFENBAUGH rdeffenbaugh@westfairinc.com
W
estchester Community College is offering photographers, painters, jewelers, potters and all other creative types a series of weekend boot camps to learn what it takes
to turn their craft into a business. The one- or two-day “Creative Entrepreneur Bootcamp,” launched in September by WCC’s Center for the Arts in White Plains, offers courses in marketing, launching a business, building a website and creating multimedia. People in creative fields have more options than ever on how to sell their work,
including on eBay, Etsy or through personal websites. But Lisa Santalis, interim director for WCC’s Center for the Arts, said that people with art backgrounds can still face difficulties when they cross over into the business world.
"We’ve pretty much focused on the arts strictly, so this is a way to branch out into entrepreneurship and how the two relate." -Lisa Santalis

“They may have never received business training,” Santalis said. “So we thought this could be a way to help artists take their craft to the next level.” A two-day boot camp titled “Start-up Your Own Creative Business!” offers guidance on writing a so-called elevator pitch, creating a business plan and finding clients. Another, titled “Build Your Website Today,” provides a guide on creating and customizing a personal website.
There are seven programs total, running through December. The courses cost either $180 for a one-day program or $360 for the two-day program. The classes are not for college credit. Santalis said the classes can appeal to a younger generation that is more likely to have an entrepreneurial outlook on their art or craft. “It’s not so much just their hobby or for personal enjoyment,” Santalis said. “They are looking at it as, well, maybe I can make a little extra money at this. And it could be fun to use technology to bring their art form to the level of more of a product.” The Westchester Community College Center for the Arts is an extension of the community college’s main campus in Valhalla. Launched in 1926, the center offers a mix of credit and noncredit courses, mostly focused in visual arts, computer arts, design and craft media. The arts center is in the Westchester County Center. This is the first boot camp-style business courses the center has offered, Santalis said. “We’ve pretty much focused on the arts strictly, so this is a way to branch out into entrepreneurship and how the two relate,” she added.

THE ROBERTS REPORT
BY ALEXANDER ROBERTS
Regulation, not government, is choking business
T
he recent debate, “Is Government Choking Business?” sponsored by Westfair Communications, raised awareness about an issue that has been much in the news. It featured a debate between Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino and former Wall Street executive and Greenwich author Walter Raquet representing the “pro” side and former Democratic Assemblyman Richard Brodsky arguing against. Unfortunately, it’s difficult in just over an hour to settle the issue, especially when it starts with a false premise. It’s not government that is choking business, it’s regulation. Government, all of the panelists agree, serves an important purpose by keeping our water and food safe and protecting us against threats, foreign and domestic. Raquet hypothesizes that all-powerful boards composed of business executives would streamline government and eliminate wasteful regulation. It’s interesting those all-knowing board members would include people like

implementation of environmental quality review standards to stifle economic and housing development. So, the problem is not government but policies and incentives that promote pushing paper instead of getting the job done. Goal-based regulation would insure that projects receive time limits and bureaucrats who delay consideration of approvals would be held accountable. Towns might be required to publish the time it takes to get applications for development approved. In that way, the towns that discourage development would be exposed and their constituents might start asking questions why their taxes are so high, despite cuts in services. Contrary to popular belief, you can’t just keep cutting services to balance the budget. Good business practices applied can definitely help streamline government, but business does not have all the answers.

Ex-U.S. senator calls for FDA reform PHYSICIAN AND THREE-TIME CANCER SURVIVOR ADDRESSES WCA FORUM
BY ALEESIA FORNI aforni@westfairinc.com
T
he U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the agency charged with protecting public health, is hampering innovation in the health care sector, according to former Oklahoma Sen. Tom Coburn. The family physician and threetime cancer survivor called for a new national health care innovation strategy at the Westchester County Association’s recent Health Tech ’16 conference at the DoubleTree Hilton in Tarrytown. “We currently have a regulatory environment that was built for the 1960s, and we have science that’s cascading before our eyes with new innovation, new technology and an inability for government agencies to keep up with it,” he said. Coburn, who serves as an advisor to the Manhattan Institute’s Project FDA, an initiative that aims to reform the Food and Drug Administration, said at the Sept. 28 conference that discrepancy must be given more attention. “Every year tens of thousands of people are dying that should not be dying and it’s our inability to have a regulatory environment and a leadership system that would solve that problem,” he said. One way to bring that number of deaths down, Coburn said, is to shorten the delay between the time a new drug is developed and when it is made available to the public. Coburn also called for enhanced funding to the FDA, which he said would make life-saving drugs available in a more timely manner. “The limitations of new drugs is one of the things that really hurts us,” he said. Coburn also proposed that the system of clinical trials should be modified and open to patients with less severe symptoms of certain diseases. “The sicker patients are the ones involved in the clinical trials, therefore what we see in clinical trials isn’t representative of the nation as a whole in a certain disease,” he said. “It’s the sickest patients.” Coburn said the FDA’s inability to keep pace with new changes and advances in technology partly stems from the fact that it cannot compete with private entities in hiring prospective talent. “There has to be a different way for us to figure out how we can actually compete in that area to give the agency the tools they need to work in terms of new drug approvals,” he said.
Another problem with the current system is the lack of data sharing between health care organizations, one that could be solved if sharing that data was incentivized, Coburn said. “If we had an independent forum where we had data-sharing, you could participate knowing that you could get compensated if somebody makes a breakthrough from parts of your data and their data,” Coburn said, adding that the organizations could then share the intellectual property rights. “That sounds big and hard, but it’s not big and hard. It’s not nearly as hard as creating a chronic disease out of HIV.” Coburn said the FDA’s regulatory review process must be modified with respect to the approval process for new drugs and to allow outside companies to develop treatments outside of the protocol. “The goal in the future for our country and the saving of these tens of thousands has to be based on applied direction,” he said. “It cannot be based on the assumption that whoever is trying to help people has to prove they’re innocent of any malfeasance before they can move forward.”

ASK ANDI
BY ANDI GRAY
Mastering the ‘game’ of marketing There is so much information out there in marketing. It makes it hard to get attention and look believable. As we test new things, we don’t know if each new marketing idea will work or not. How do we keep from making ourselves crazy? THOUGHTS OF THE DAY: Hang in there by
looking at marketing as a game. Build muscle and results through practice. Play by the rules and play for long-term results. Just get started. Make sure you have the right team for the game you want to play. Think of marketing as a late night game of darts among friends. You start off with fresh eyes, strong throws and score early wins. As the game drags on, points don’t come so easily, anxiety hits, you start to try different throws — some work, some don’t. By the end of the night you’re tired, throwing wildly, missing the bull’s-eye more than hitting it; you just want the game to be over. Start with what you know works in marketing. But don’t stop there. Work system-
atically as you seek to expand your reach. Add people to refresh the team. Document what’s working. Marketing calls for precise planning. And practice makes perfect. Line up exact targets. Watch the scoreboard, aka analytics and key performance indicators. Experiment by throwing a few random darts to see what your audience likes. Score points when your target audience recognizes you. Win a game when buyers take action. Accumulate points through consistent look and feel that’s presented in multiple ways, such as print ads, website, billboards, uniforms, social media, radio and TV ads, leadership articles, etc. Aspire to play often and be everywhere your customer is. Analyze what gets noticed. Keep in mind the old adage that you need to touch customers a minimum 8 to 10 times to get recognized. Think of campaigns as journeys your audience takes to accumulate 8 to 10-plus touches. Boosting a post on Facebook might get you reach and probably some likes, but social media is just a piece of the game. It’s powerful, but still just one part of the whole.
Don’t get lost there. Run multiple campaigns simultaneously. Launching a new product? Let potential customers know about it. Simultaneously work to increase overall brand awareness with existing and new customers. Remind former customers that you’re still out there, drawing them back to make another purchase and to refer you to their friends. For a general marketing campaign here are some suggestions to get started: • Send a five-question survey to existing customers — why do they love your brand; • Decide on “offers” and test their appeal; • Target your market through specific demographics. For example, suburban homeowners with household income of $100k-plus, men or women ages 35 to 50, businesses with more than 50 blue-collar employees; • Combine vehicles: print advertising, boosted posts on Facebook, scheduled tweets, Instagram posts, mailers, phone calls; • Map out and schedule what goes out when, so efforts complement each other; and • Assign someone to oversee each cam-
paign, including design, implementation, data gathering, analysis and tweaking. There are ways to build marketing campaigns to fit every size budget. If your budget is really small, combine forces with another business that has a similar audience. Incorporate community volunteering to boost visibility. Build a network of people who are all promoting each other. Boost team strength by continually adding people with a span of personalities and approaches. Creativity, analytic skills and project management ability are all necessary. Boost results by adding both employees and vendors to your team and delegating when you get tired.

SPECIAL REPORT
ELDER CARE
Home health care agencies are rated for quality BY BILL HELTZEL bheltzel@westfairinc.com
I
ndira Gaviola was unaware of “star ratings” when she directed patient services for United Hebrew of New Rochelle last year. She applied her skills as a registered nurse and her ethic of patients first as she helped manage United Hebrew’s new home health care agency. And after its first full year of operation, a government scorecard awarded the agency 4.5 out of a possible 5 stars for quality of patient care. United Hebrew scored higher than any other Westchester-based home health agency and placed in the top 6 percent statewide. Lighthouse Home Health Care, in Old Saybrook, also scored 4.5 stars among agencies that operate in Fairfield County. What’s more, Lighthouse scored four stars for feedback on patient surveys. That gave it a combined score of 8.5 stars and put it in the top three in both categories in Connecticut. United Hebrew, as a new home health agency, was not graded on patient surveys. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services calculated the star ratings to guide patients and their families in selecting a home health care service. Home health care encompasses a broad range of services that are customized in plans that address each individual’s conditions. Patients are treated for short-term health conditions, chronic illnesses, postsurgical care and even terminal illnesses. The health care teams include doctors, nurses, aides, therapists and social workers. Patients are bathed and fed, given assistance with medications and injections, and get physical, occupational and speech therapy. The services enable patients to stay in their homes, avoid hospitalizations and delay long-term nursing home care. Two numbers – 12.1 and 6.5 – stand out in the underlying data that comprise the star ratings. United Hebrew treated 174 patients at home last year. Just over 12 percent had to be admitted to a hospital. That’s 27 percent
lower than the national average. And 6.5 percent of United Hebrew's home patients needed urgent, unplanned care without being admitted to a hospital. That’s nearly 39 percent lower than the national average. Gaviola and Frank Conway, who heads United Hebrew's home health division, attributed last year’s success to thorough patient assessments, training, communication, constant monitoring and multi-disciplinary teamwork. They hire seasoned professionals, people with more than 10 years of home care experience, and give them extensive training, they said. United Hebrew's 260 home health aides on the front lines make sure patients are eating properly. They count pills in vials rather than rely on patients’ memories of medications taken. If a patient is not getting out of bed to exercise, that information is entered in a laptop computer. Skin is checked after baths, and if redness is seen the office is called right away. Injuries are photographed weekly to track progress of healing. Each patient’s status is monitored daily. The entire staff is involved. They make sure eating patterns match the diet plan. If a patient is at risk for falling in the shower, a shower bench is delivered. If a patient’s skin redness is significant, someone intervenes. “We overcommunicate,” Conway said. “Our whole team knows everything about our patients. It’s discussed at our morning meetings and we go forward from there.” If a patient’s health deteriorates, the team looks for answers on the New Rochelle campus, where United Hebrew oerates a long-term skilled nursing center, a rehabilitation unit, an assisted living facility, a memory care program, geriatric care services and assisted living units. “We can get immediate answers on how to follow the continuum of care,” Conway said. “It’s all about the patients,” Gaviola said. The quality-of-care star ratings are based on Medicare claims and extensive data submitted by the agencies. Star ratings are calculated from nine of the 24 collected measurements. They include processes, such as how quickly patient care is initiated and whether the patient gets a flu vaccine. A big emphasis is put on outcomes. Is the patient able to walk or move around better? Are they getting better at bathing themselves? Medicare needs at least 20 patient reports a year to rate a home health agency. The average quality of care star score nationally, and in New York and Connecticut, is 3. Star ratings for patient surveys are based on questions about the patient’s experience. At least 40 surveys must be submitted for an agency to be rated. National and state averages are not calculated. WESTCHESTER Thirty-five agencies that operate in

Westchester County received quality of care ratings. Most are based outside of the county and as far away as Vermont. Americare Certified Special Services, Brooklyn, also scored a 4.5 quality of care score in Westchester. Wartburg Home Care in Mount Vernon was the only other Westchester-based agency among the seven that scored at 4 or above. Nineteen agencies, or 54 percent, got average scores. Nine agencies scored below average. Manchester Health Services from Vermont scored a perfect 5 stars for patient surveys. It had a combined score of 9 on quality of care and patient surveys.
Westchester Medical Center's MidHudson Regional Hospital in Poughkeepsie also scored high on both categories, with a combined score of 8. Five agencies did not receive patient survey scores. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services says patients and families should discuss star ratings with doctors, health care providers and the home health agency they are considering. The government agency has created an online Home Health Compare tool that enables people to see all of the measurements. The tool can be found at medicare. gov/homehealthcompare/search.html.

Sarah Lawrence students reach out with arts at Wartburg BY ALEESIA FORNI aforni@westfairinc.com
S
eated in a circle among a group of senior residents of the Wartburg, the Mount Vernon provider of senior care services, Sarah Lawrence College students Julia Josephson and Claire Flom-Staab open the first session of their six-month theater outreach program. The students get to know the group’s five participants by listening intently to their stories, prompting discussions and asking additional questions. During the course of the hour-long session, one resident describes her love for playing the piano and writing music. Others are gifted in singing or dancing, while another resident says that she would enjoy creating art or stage decorations. “We have a perfect group,” said Josephson. The responses and interests that Josephson and Flom-Staab glean during this initial meeting will be used to shape the course of their outreach program, which will run through May.
“It’s important that when we start with a new group, we meet with them as individuals,” said Allen Lang, director of Sarah Lawrence College Theatre Outreach. “The chemistry of every group is so different, so it’s important to get a sense of who the participants are as people, as well as what they might be interested in pursuing theatrically.” During the group’s following weekly sessions, the students and residents will share ideas, express their creativity and practice for what will be the culmination of the program: a springtime performance open to the residents’ family and friends. Just what that performance will entail is still up in the air. “The strengths of this current group are movement, writing, singing and acting, so the workshop will be comprised of those elements,” Lang said following the meeting. The group plans to discuss what specific direction the program will take at their next workshop. “You can participate any way you want to,” said Aixa M. Rosario Medina, coordinator of Sarah Lawrence’s Theater Outreach, who urged the participants to share the word that residents could even lend their tal-

ents behind the scenes. “It’s not one set thing. It’s whatever you’re comfortable with doing.” “We’re very much here for them,” FlomStaab said. “We want to make it as individual as possible.” Josephson said the outreach program’s meetings can add to the residents’ sometimes tedious schedule in an assisted living facility or nursing home. “I think it’s important to have this in your week, something where you’re reliving things you’ve always enjoyed in art,” she said. “Even if they’re not doing anything yet, we’re just talking about it, but just being able to express what really makes them happy is important.” This marks Josephson’s second outreach program at the Wartburg through Sarah Lawrence. She also participated in a program that uses improvisational therapy

with puppets to help those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. In another program, a visual artist worked individually with seniors to create shadow boxes that reflected their important memories and life events. And a musical theater group from the liberal arts college is setting up a regular series of concerts featuring selections from eras that would most likely resonate with Wartburg’s residents. “They bring different ideas and things that we didn’t think about doing,” Ann Frey, director of volunteers at the Wartburg, said of the Sarah Lawrence students. “And they just aren’t afraid. They’re not afraid to try something new.” Frey said the programs also help senior residents recapture pieces of their identity and share their stories with students who are eager to listen. “Somebody is asking them ‘What did you do? What is your passion?’” she said. “They come here and sometimes that’s lost.” “Just letting them know that we’re interested in them is important,” said Flom-Staab, a Sarah Lawrence senior studying theater and psychology. The residents are not the only ones who benefit from these outreach programs. “We learn a lot about what we’re interested in too,” said Josephson, a Sarah Lawrence senior who studies theater outreach. “Hearing them, I’m like, ‘Of course, I love doing this.’ It’s a back-and-forth.”

The ROI of supporting ‘sandwich generation’ employees
T
here’s a growing challenge today’s businesses are facing. Employees in the “sandwich generation,” who were once merely juggling the demands of the office with caring for their children, now have an additional responsibility: caring for their aging parents. This group includes nearly half of all Americans in their 40s and 50s who are in their peak earning years and have a level of professional expertise that is critical to their employers. It’s no surprise that being pulled in both directions can lead to stressed-out employees. Many are experiencing distraction, absenteeism, declining health and lost productivity, among other disruptions in their lives. For employers, that leads to retention issues and problems in managing the workplace. In other words, we as employers have a vested interest in helping our employees cope with the
We care for you like family.
stress of being “sandwiched.” Recognizing the scope of this growing workplace issue is the first step. When work and caregiving collide U.S. Census data show the numbers of seniors are swelling. By 2030, there will be about 72.1 million people over the age of 65, more than twice their number in 2000. While people are living longer, they’re not necessarily healthier. Sandwiched caregivers are spending roughly 20 hours a week, more than 1,350 hours per year, on caring for aging parents, according to a National Alliance of Caregiving study. Some of those hours inevitably fall during the workday and businesses are paying the price. Nationwide, employers face estimated costs of $17 billion to $33 billion annually when workers are absent, shift from full- to part-time status or leave their jobs because of their caregiving responsibilities. Sandwiched middle-aged adults are managing a vast array of sup-
port services, from shuttling aging parents to doctors’ appointments and managing their medications to helping with day-today shopping and cleaning. How employers can help At United Hebrew of New Rochelle, we have seen our fair share of caregiver stress, both in the families that come to us for help and among our staff of 700 employees. Stress-related symptoms may include sleep loss, weight gain, depression or anxiety. While we can’t change the trends fueling the growth of the sandwich generation, there is much we can do to help our employees navigate their challenges to maintain both their emotional well-being and their performance at work. 1. Lead with compassion. We train our department heads to recognize the warning signs of stressed employees: Are workers productive? Leaving early or coming in late? Handling a lot of personal calls at work? Creating open lines of communication, showing empathy and listening to our employees goes a long way in creating a culture where the employees’ needs are balanced with the needs of the organization. 2. Provide flexibility. Over half of all employed caregivers say they must make
some sort of workplace accommodation, such as leaving early, taking a leave of absence or dropping back to part-time. Depending on your company’s policies, when possible, offer flexible work hours that will accommodate caregiving responsibilities such as taking a parent to a weekly doctor’s appointment. Is it feasible for employees to work extra hours on one day to take more time off on another or perhaps work a fourday, 40-hour work week? Flextime can help reduce unplanned absenteeism and reduce distractions at work because it allows employees to stay in control of their schedules. 3. Provide facts and information. Company leaders should be aware of trusted resources for information on aging and the elderly in Westchester. For example, the elder care experts at United Hebrew can support adult children searching for care at home, or looking into residential care services for their parents. Pointing your employees to knowledgeable information sources saves them time and effort, and reduces distractions during the workday. We can also help employees to understand the services available in the mar» SANDWICH GENERATION, page 24

ketplace to help care for their parents. Many in the sandwich generation are not ready to give up their role as caregivers and they seek information on supportive care services, whether in the home or in a long-term care setting. For those who have parents with increasingly fragile health or who are diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, it will help to learn about long-term and assisted-living options in the area. 4. Help employees understand that even if they solve today’s crisis, other crises may occur. People’s needs evolve as they age and the level of care must increase. The elderly often require a continuum of care—transitioning from independent living and assisted living to possibly memory care and long-term skilled nursing. Organizations that can provide stepped-up care at the same location, such as United Hebrew, can help your employ-
ees plan ahead for care if it is needed. 5. Recharge with respite care. With the unyielding responsibilities of caregiving, sandwich generation members may need to temporarily take step back from their role in order to rest and recharge. Respite care, in which adult children can arrange short-term overnight stays in senior living communities for their loved ones, can provide much-needed relief from caregiver burnout. Respite stays can also be a way to experience what a senior living community has to offer, should assisted living or long-term care become necessary down the road. As sandwich generation employees feel the pressure from work and home, employers feel the effects as well. Supporting this growing group will help us all in the long run.

ENGEL RECEIVES NATIONAL HOME INFUSION ASSOCIATION AWARD REP. ELIOT ENGEL, THE LEAD House of Representatives sponsor of the Medicare Home Infusion Site of Care Act, received the National Home Infusion Association’s Congressional Leadership Award. “Congressman Engel has been an ardent, longtime advocate of home infusion therapy. He has shown time and again his commitment to supporting the Medicare Home Infusion Site of Care Act and has spoken publicly about the costeffectiveness of home infusion, as well as the benefits it provides patients,” said Tyler Wilson, president and CEO of the National Home Infusion Association. “The association and the home infusion community are deeply grateful to him for his strong support and commitment.” Patients who have been prescribed infusion therapy receive medications via a needle or a catheter because oral medications have proven ineffective. Medicare only covers infusion treatments fully in doctors’ offices, skilled nursing facilities and hospitals. The Medicare Home Infusion Site of Care Act would give patients the ability to receive these therapies in their homes. “I have long been committed to closing the Medicare coverage gap for home-based infusion care. There is no reason to force patients battling cancer or serious infection to leave their homes for treatment when there is a safer, more comfortable and more cost-effective alternative available,” Engel said, adding that he would “continue fighting to ensure that this coverage gap is eliminated and that patients are able to get the care they need in the best setting possible.” —Aleesia Forni

Caring for the caregiver
C
aring for a loved one, whether a family member, friend or neighbor, is becoming increasingly common as the baby boomer generation continues to age. According to AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving, 40 million Americans provide care for an adult friend or family member who is ill. While the typical family caregiver is a 49-yearold woman, there is an increasing number of men serving in this role. In addition, about one-quarter of all caregivers are now between the ages of 18 and 34. The responsibilities of family members or friends that find themselves in this situation do not end with caregiving; many also hold full-time jobs. Caregiver obligations can place demands on their schedule and emotions, causing significant stress both in and outside of the workplace. For this reason, those in this position must be sure to take care of themselves in order to protect their own health and well-being in all aspects of their life. It is imperative that caregivers understand that taking care of themselves is just as important as caring for a loved one. While there are myriad rewards for providing care for another person, there are also potential risks to the caregiver’s health. Signs of caregiver stress may build up slowly and might not be immediately noticeable. Coworkers, friends or loved ones may detect mood changes, impatience with colleagues and clients and a lack of joy in workplace and social activities. Anxiety, irritability and exhaustion also are common signs.
Stress can contribute to lost wages and ill health effects on the caregiver without the proper tools and exercises. Some simple steps can be taken to prevent or minimize the effects of stress. Seeking help is paramount. Very few people can handle the financial, physical, emotional and logistical burdens alone. Take turns with a family member. Pay attention to your own limitations and know when to ask others for assistance. According to the Family Caregiving Alliance, it is not unusual for caregivers to develop mild or more serious depression as a result of the constant demands they face in providing care. Be sure to know what the signs of depression are — which include notable increase or decrease in appetite, fatigue, change in sleep patterns, and a loss of interest in people and/or
activities that once brought you pleasure, among others — and ask for help through individual counseling or a communitybased support group. In order to avoid any misunderstandings with their loved one’s medical team, caregivers must take the time to communicate with them. Ask questions of the doctors, nurses and social workers and understand when and where the professionals must step in. Personal time is absolutely essential for those managing a full-time job and caring for a loved one. They should be encouraged by those around them to explore options for using personal time for both caregiving and self-care. They may need reassurance that taking time off, even for half a day or just a few hours, will not adversely impact the company or their job.
Perhaps most importantly, caregivers should not forgo enjoyable activities. Spend time with friends. Gardening, reading, painting, exercise and meditation can help to alleviate the stresses of caregiving. It is imperative that they spend enough time on themselves while caring for a loved one. Being a caregiver can be very rewarding, but it is also a balancing act. Caregivers must be aware of their own health and well-being as much as they are about that of their loved ones. Mary K. Spengler is CEO of Hospice of Westchester in White Plains, which provides comprehensive end-of-life care to Westchester County residents suffering from any serious or life-limiting illness.

Peter Falk’s Law becomes a reality in New York
F
or 10 years, Peter Falk brilliantly portrayed Lieutenant Columbo, an LAPD detective of Italian descent, in the hit television series “Columbo” that ran from 1968-1978. While wearing his trademark wrinkled raincoat, chronically absent-minded and perpetually disheveled, Columbo would quickly and intellectually disarm a suspected murderer. Through skilled and insightful questioning and with a keen eye for detail, he was able to solve the most complex homicides. However, putting Hollywood fantasies aside, Falk, a native New Yorker and graduate of Ossining High School and Syracuse University, sadly is said to have spent his last days suffering from the ravages of Alzheimer’s disease while allegedly isolated from his family and friends by his second wife, who was his court-appointed conservator under California law. As Falk’s conservator, she allegedly prevented his daughter and other family members from visiting him, failed to notify them of major changes in his condition and even allegedly failed
Actor Peter Falk in his Columbo role.
to notify them of his demise in 2011 and his funeral arrangements. Because of her heartbreaking experience, his daughter, Catherine Falk, has fought to have legislation passed nationwide, known as Peter Falk’s Law, that provides specific guidelines that guardians and conservators for an incapacitated person
must comply with relevant to visitation rights and notice of end of life. In New York, the bill was passed by the Assembly and Senate and, on July 21, Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed the legislation into law. Thus, New York has become one of the many states that have adopted Peter Falk’s Law. As a result of the enactment of Peter Falk’s Law, the Mental Hygiene Law of New York was amended with three new paragraphs relevant to guardianship duties. They provide as follows: • The order of appointment shall identify the person entitled to receive notice of the incapacitated person’s death, the intended disposition of the remains of the decedent, funeral arrangements and final resting place when that information is known or can be reasonably ascertained by the guardian. • The order of appointment may identify the person or persons entitled to notice of the incapacitated person’s transfer to a medical facility. • The order of appointment may identify the person entitled to visit the incapacitated person, if they so choose. However, the identification of such persons in the order shall in no way limit the person entitled to visit the incapacitated person.
Clearly, the intent of Peter Falk’s Law is to ensure that children from a previous marriage, as well as other family members, are not denied the right to visit their incapacitated parent or Anthony J. Enea loved one by a current spouse who is a guardian/conservator with whom they may have a poor relationship. The law in essence requires that the court appoints a guardian to address the issue of visitation, notice of transfer to a medical facility and death in the initial order for the incapacitated person. Ultimately, the goal is to prevent a guardian from improperly isolating his or her ward and limiting visitation. Anthony J. Enea is the managing member of Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano LLP with of�ices in White Plains and Somers. He is a past chairman of the New York State Bar Association’s elder law section.

t was a no-holds-barred discussion of women in the workforce and on the homefront as Professional Women of Westchester hosted the organization’s first “She-She” Success Symposium moderated by Lisa Kaslyn, president of Prosper Communications. WAG was happy to be a participant and sister publication, the Westchester County Business Journal, a sponsor for the panel. The panel included Leslie Lampert, owner of Love Hospitality, and Mecca E. Santana, vice president of diversity and community relations for Westchester Medical Center Health Network, along with WAG editor-in-chief Georgette Gouveia.
