This is an invitation for anyone who is going to one day die
and wants peace of mind for themselves and their family.
Greetings!
 
Friday, April 16th is National Health Care Decisions Day. Board Certified Elder Law Attorney Alice Reiter Feld in conjunction with the renowned Dr. Leonard Hock, Chief Medical Officer at Hospice by the Sea, Boca Raton, is hosting a monumental event dedicated to straight talk on advance healthcare decision making including very new and important changes being made in this area of great concern.
 
If you have not heard of "POLST" you will.  POLST or Physician Order for Life Sustaining Treatment is a new treatment paradigm designed to bridge the gap between the clients wishes and the "real life world". The POLST "form" is a physician's order based on effective communication with the patient and documenting the medical orders on a brightly colored form with a promise by health care professionals to honor these wishes. 
 
For entrée into this most important topic, please join Alice Reiter Feld, Dr. Leonard Hock and Rabbi Mitch Feld for an enlightening, thought provoking dialogue and interchange on end of life issues that effect us all provided exclusively for our law office community. 
 
Attendance is Free. RSVP is required as seating is limited.

Dear Alice,

First we would like to thank you and your staff for your assistance in securing Medicaid approval for my father, Richard P. Shaw, once again. Your office's expertise and connections have been invaluable to us in our hour of need.

We would especially like to tell you that Ada has been very thorough and attentive to detail in all aspects of my father's Medicaid applications. She was the one who straightened out the initial application and finally got an answer on what months were covered and what months were not. Also, Ada was very expedient in our newest challenge with the Department of Children and Families' - the annual review. She contacted us immediately upon receipt last week of the annual Medicaid renewal application and told us what information and documents we needed to gather to complete it. She also obtained a desperately needed extension as they were asking for submittal on DECEMBER 14TH!!!! only a week from receipt of the renewal form. Ada's connections with the Dept. of Children and Families were very valuable in obtaining the extension and expediting the annual Medicaid renewal. In fact, the whole process has been completed today with as little stress on my mother and me as Ada could provide.

Ada has been a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend her services. She conducts herself in a professional and friendly manner that puts your mind at ease. We look forward to working with her again.

Thanks again for all you do and Happy Holidays!
Sincerely,
Mary Ann Shaw and Rose Mary Shaw

Dear Alice,
Seldom do I have a chance to thank and praise the work that you and your staff do for your clients of which I am fortunately one of those lucky folks. The care and consideration your staff has shown to Joan and I have been exceptional. The stress and strain of being a caregiver for so long had taken a toll on me but you guys have taken all the worry and concern off my 85 year old shoulders. I would like to pay a particular complement to Ada, whose pleasant attitude and genial demeanor has made this part of our lives so much easier to bear. You are indeed lucky and wise to have assembled such a competent staff .Again thank you for helping us in this difficult time of our lives.
Ben/Joan Greenberg

Ada,
Just wanted to let you know, I truly appreciate the effort you have put forth for me regarding this situation of trying to establish a new lower payment for my dad for calendar year 2009. You have kept me up to date on all the developments that have transpired involving the DCS, and that has been most comforting. I must say in the 2 ½ years I have been associated with your law firm, I have been extremely pleased with everything Alice and you have done form me. My gut instinct was to choose your law firm because of Alice's ties to New York, and I was absolutely correct.
Thanks again,
Jeff Arbeit
