Grandparents & Kin Raising Grandchildren, the Grandfamilies: support groups in Hampshire County You may ask, just what are G r a n d f a m i l i e s ?

Grandfamilies is the name used to describe families that are created when a relative or friend rises to care for another relative’s children.

This happens for a multitude of reasons, with the occurrence on the rise. There are even great grandparents parenting again! Along with the satisfaction of helping and the joy, there are many difficulties that also surface. To help alleviate your difficulties and added stress we offer support groups where you are welcome to come, to learn about resources, to share and be heard. Our groups are relaxed, friendly and supportive. We invite you to join us at any one or all of the groups listed below.

If you are unable to attend a group but would like someone to talk to or for more information, call/text the Kinship Care Resource Coordinator at 413-8344073.

Home Evaluation Offered The Westfield Council On Aging and the Occupational Therapy Department at Springfield College will once again collaborate to offer a limited number of older adults in Westfield a unique home assessment opportunity. Pairs of students determine the level of safety and convenience in the home of their assigned older participant by conducting a home visit and an interview. The students address problem areas and make recommendations in a written report that is reviewed by the class professor, Dr. Joan Simmons.

Participants receive a copy of the report so that they can implement any of the recommendations if they choose to do so. This is a wonderful opportunity for older adults with any mobility or sensory limitations to discover how they might function more easily and independently at home. If you would like to participate in this unique program or if you have questions, please call Tina Gorman or Fran Aguda at the Westfield Senior Center, 5626435.

She then asks the patient to get dressed and has them along with their family go to a private room to talk more in-depth about their breast cancer diagnosis and treatment plan. “The reason I have them get dressed is this is a very vulnerable moment in their life.

SPRINGFIELD — Election Day is behind us and the Question 1 ballot initiative was voted down.

Massachusetts hospitals stood together against this legislation because of the significant negative impacts it could have had on patients and their ability to access health care throughout the state.

At Baystate Health we value our nurses and the role they play on teams whose care has been recognized nationally for its safety and quality. We recognize the ongoing challenges of the national nursing shortage and will continue our efforts to advance our innovative strategies to educate, recruit, and retain our talented nursing workforce.

We are grateful for the support of our Baystate Health team members and community as we work each day to fulfill our mission to improve the health of the people in our communities every day, with quality and compassion.”

Scarecrow Fundraiser Contest Roxane Cotton, Business Development Director of Governors Center, presents a check to Sally English, Regional Director of Clubhouses. Governor's Center held it's first annual Scarecrow Contest to raise money for the Forum House and area businesses were asked to make a scarecrow and display it on the Governor's Center Lawn for a fee. During the Westfield on Weekends Pumpkin Festival, we held a people's choice award that the Westfield Senior Center won. Later in the month we held judging for the scarecrow's for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. The results were: 1st place went to Governor's Center for their Under the Sea, 2nd place to Dancer's Images Ballet Dancer and 3rd place to Western Mass Roller Derby's Skater. Governor's Center would like to thank all that helped to raise money for the Forum House.

Words of Hope

both breasts. In addition to their cancer treatment, it gives them the cosmetic result they want and takes weight off their neck, back, and shoulders.

“We want to give patients the best repair possible while treating the cancer so that when they look in the mirror they don’t say ‘I had breast cancer’ they say ‘this my body and I am comfortable in it.’ Being well trained in the different options is also important.”

“They all have an effect on my life.”

Dr. Lipoff shares the best part of being a breast surgeon, “When my patients come back in either post-op or at their four month visit and their happy with their cosmetic results, their happy with their treatments and the care they were provided, that they are tolerating the treatments well. It is that follow up. I am not God. I am not a miracle worker. It is really that gratitude from the patient and that makes me happy to do what I do. It really is an honor to care for these women whether they realize it or not, they all have an effect on my life.”

It Takes a Village None of this work could be done without the efforts of a whole team. Dr. Lipoff gives a glimpse of the team she is proud to be a part of. “From the front desk to medical assistants to nurse navigators, schedulers, office staff, practice manager, it takes a village and they all do an exceptional job. It takes many men and women to help me care for these patients and that is just within the surgical oncology world. That doesn’t take into consideration the radiation oncology, medical oncology, radiology, pathology, plastic surgery, it is a huge well-oiled machine to provide the care patients need.”

A Message for Recently Diagnosed Breast Cancer Patients “I validate your feelings. It is scary. A cancer diagnosis is scary and that is okay. You are allowed to be scared, you are allowed to breakdown. One step at a time. ”

Leaf Pickup Program

Leaf Pickup Program WESTFIELD — The Department of Public Works will begin the Leaf Pickup Program on Saturday, November 10th through November 30th, 2018.

Leaf collections will be done with the established refuse and recycling collection routes.

All leaves collected should be in brown paper bags, with no objectionable or foreign materials, and placed curbside.

All residents will be required to maintain the bags in good standing until they can be collected. Residents should be aware that recognized holiday’s and inclement weather may cause delays in leaf collections.

Additionally, severe weather conditions may cause an early suspension of the leaf collection program, so please visit the City website for any and all updates.

Water Meter Installation The City of Westfield has contracted with East National Water, LLC of Palmer, MA to replace the existing water meter reading equipment throughout the City. The process requires a one-hour window of time to schedule the appointment at your property. For security purposes, meter installers will be wearing company uniforms, using vehicles with company logos, and will be carrying company issued photo identification and driver’s license. A responsible adult at least 18-years old must be present for the meter installation to take place.

Please note that meters will be replaced at no cost to you, the homeowner, however, some existing conditions may need to be resolved by the homeowner in order for the meter replacement to be completed. This may include meters that are unable to be accessed, plumbing issues, or unsafe working conditions. Once you have resolved those conditions, contact East National Water, LLC to complete the meter replacement.

If you have any questions regarding this program please call the Westfield DPW Water Division at (413) 572-6226. Office hours are between 8:00 am and 4:00 pm. Residents can schedule the appointment once your receive notice from East National that they are in your area and give you a 4 digit code.

The Project is starting next week with appointments being scheduled as we speak for those residents in the area of:

RIDER RD LONG POND RD PEQUOT POINT RD OLD COUNTY RD SUSAN DR

E MOUNTAIN RD JOANN DR LINDA DR NORTH RD

This is just the start of the project. Residents will be notified directly by mail from East National to start scheduling their appointments.

When it comes to 21st century multimedia platforms, “hyper local” is a term you hear a lot.

It’s not a new idea. In fact, The Westfield News has been providing readers with “hyper local” news coverage of Westfield, Southwick, and the Hilltowns all along. Television, radio and regional newpapers only provide fleeting coverage of local issues you care about. TV stations and big newspaper publishers, after years of cutbacks and mergers, frankly home delivery aren’t able to provide in-depth coverage of smaller markets anymore.
