Life in the kitchen: simplified and organized 

How ShelfGenie 

saved one kitchen 

and can save yours 

Amanda Stoll, 22CMBoost 

Fed up with unloading 

cabinets and struggling 

to reach cookware cornered 

on shelves, Priscilla 

needed a magician — or a 

genie. 

ShelfGenie simple custom 

kitchen-organization 

system solved Priscilla’s 

kitchen woes. 

Priscilla contacted 

ShelfGenie for a complimentary 

in-home design 

consultation, and the session 

couldn’t have gone 

better, she said, adding that 

she was impressed the designer 

listened and understood 

her frustration and 

needs and was ready with 

MKT-5894G-A-A1 

suggestions specific to her 

space. 

ShelfGenie’s custommade 

Glide-outs were 

measured and built to fit 

into her existing cabinets 

and pantries without requiring 

any remodeling. 

The installation went 

extremely well. 

“He was clean, he was 

efficient [and] he cleaned 

up after the job was done,” 

Priscilla said about Chris, 

who installed her shelves 

in less than one day. 

After organizing her 

newly revamped kitchen 

spaces, Priscilla embraced 

an entirely different and 

simpler experience in her 

kitchen. Everything she 

needs is now right at her 

fingertips and doesn’t require 

her getting on her 

knees or require her to 

wrestle things from the 

back. 

“In one section where 

my pots and pans were, I 

used to have to take just 

about the whole stack of 

pans out to get to the one 

that’s in the middle or that 

one that’s at the bottom, 

and the pans were very 

heavy,” she said. “So now 

I have two drawers: one is 

pots, and the other is pans. 

“It has just simplified 

my life.” 

Before the ShelfGenie 

drawers were installed, 

Priscilla was working with 

wire shelving in her pantries, 

while smaller items, 

such as zip-top baggies 

and plastic wrap, were 

stored in less-than-ideal 

cardboard boxes. 

Housing canned goods 

in a more convenient space 

is just one of many examples 

of how ShelfGenie 

Ready for life's milestones? 

Let's plan.

Member SIPC 

has improved the functionality 

of Priscilla’s kitchen. 

It has trimmed her time 

prepping and organizing 

so she can get back to what 

she enjoys most: cooking 

and spending time in the 

kitchen with her family. 

The ShelfGenie Glideouts 

have given her back 

a lot of space she lost to 

inefficiency, so now even 

more items, such as water 

bottles and drinks that 

were stored in the basement, 

can be stored in the 

kitchen where they belong. 

With the amount of time 

spent Priscilla spends with 

her family in the kitchen, 

she said the drawers are 

“worth their weight in 

gold.” 

“I’m just thrilled with 

them. I’m just thrilled,” 

she said. “I feel organized. 

I can see things, and I can 

get at things. It’s just a 

real, real good day every 

day. Every day is a good 

day in my kitchen. It’s not 

frustrating anymore.”

extensive line of custombuilt, 

Glide-Out shelves

Out shelves for your

Maintaining healthy hair with Pascal pour Elle 

Now that the winter months are approaching, 

the days are starting to get 

cooler, it’s time to think about the ways 

you can protect your hair from winter 

damage. Here are a few tips from us at 

Pascal pour Elle to help you maintain 

healthy, beautiful hair this upcoming season. 

During the winter months, it’s a great 

idea to treat your hair once a week to a 

deep conditioning regimen. This will help

replenish the moisture which tends to get 

depleted from things such as dry heat in 

your home and cold winter air. We recommend 

Kerastase Fusion Treatments, 

which are done right here in the salon. 

The treatment is customized for your specific 

hair needs. A great at home treatment 

we recommend would be Masquintense 

by Kerastase. There is one for fine hair, 

or thick hair. Work through your wet hair 

from root to ends leaving it on your hair

for 10-20 minutes and rinse thoroughly. 

Static can also become a real problem 

when the weather conditions are cold and 

dry. A great way to combat static is to use 

a good heat styling product before you 

blowdry your hair. Protect Me, by Pascal 

Paris, is not only a priming heat protector, 

it also is a anti-humidity spray. We also 

find that minimizing your hair-washing to 

two to three times per week in the winter 

months, will prevent your hair from 

drying out too much. Making sure your 

hair is completely dry before leaving the 

house is also a must. The moisture in your 

hair combined with the cold air can add 

further damage to your hair by making it 

more brittle and dry. 

A regular trim is a great way to keep 

your hair healthy. A light dusting of the 

ends every four to six weeks will reduce 

the chance of drying, splitting ends. Bottom 

line: Your hair is 90 percent of your 

selfie.

15 reasons to use in-home care for your loved ones 

What is widely viewed as the 

best and most viable delivery of 

health care in America? Infirmed 

(informed) and elderly individuals 

have been found to prefer 

home care by 90 percent over 

comparable institutional care. 

What are some of the reasons 

for in-home elderly care? This 

article counts the many ways – 

15 in fact – that it is far preferable 

– at least to seniors – over 

a nursing home or other kind of 

assisted living. 

1. Home care is delivered, as you 

would expect, at home. Dorothy 

said it best: “There’s no 

place like home.” Certainly, 

this is a statement that most 

people wholeheartedly embrace. 

There is nothing like 

the comfort and familiarity of 

being cared for in the comfort 

and security of “home sweet 

home.” 

2. In-home care helps keep families 

together. Compare this to 

taking an elderly person away 

from their loved ones. At no 

time is family more important 

than during times of illness. 

3. Elderly care helps seniors 

maintain their independence. 

Home care allows seniors to 

continue to live in the place 

they function best – their 

home. 

4. Home care prevents or puts 

off institutional life. Living 

in a long-term care facility is 

unfamiliar and can often be intimidating. 

Most people prefer 

postponing the inevitable as 

long as possible. 

5. Home care helps promote 

healing. Medical evidence 

shows that people recover 

more quickly at home. 

6. In-home elderly care is safer. 

It’s no secret that people 

pick up infections and other 

complications when they live 

amid a chronically ill population 

(such as in a hospital or 

long-term care facility). This 

is obviously not the case when 

cared for at home. 

7. Home care means personalized 

care. Care becomes a 

one-to-one proposition in your 

home. You get this nowhere 

else. 

8. Home care often gets the entire 

family involved in providing 

care. Immediate and extended 

family members often 

take an active role at different 

times of the day. 

9. Home care reduces the stress 

that often accompanies illness. 

Illness increases anxiety and 

stress, but it’s not nearly as 

great when care is practiced in 

the home. 

10. Home care is the most effective 

form of health care delivered 

in terms of customer 

satisfaction. It all comes back 

to the fact that people prefer to 

be at home. 

11. Home care is delivered by a 

special group of people. People 

don’t work in the home 

care industry for the money. 

They do it for the emotional 

satisfaction of helping others 

and for making a difference in 

the life of another. 

12. Home care extends life. 

Studies by nursing schools 

and government agencies have 

found that home care extends 

life. Visits by home care personnel 

often provide spiritual 

as well as medical support. 

13. Home care improves one’s 

quality of life. For most people, 

the quality of their life is 

far better at home than anywhere 

else. 

14. Home care is less expensive 

than other forms of care. The 

cost of home care is always 

less expensive than hospitalization 

and almost always 

more affordable than nursing 

home or assisted living care, 

which can cost $90,000 a year 

or more. 

15. Technology will make home 

care even more desirable in 

the future. Medical and technological 

advances will soon 

make it possible to diagnose, 

monitor and treat illness at a 

distance. This will help make 

home care even more of a preferred 

option.

Ask Mary Ann: When is the right time to 

move into a Memory Care Community? 

Mary Ann, I have been 

caring for my mother, who 

has dementia, in my home. 

How can I know when the 

right time comes to move 

her into a memory care 

community? 

Most of us caring for 

our loved one come from 

a subjective place. I have 

found that the decision is 

easier to make if you step 

back and look at it more 

objectively. 

We want to keep the 

promises we have made 

to care for our loved ones. 

Sometimes that includes 

keeping them at home. 

However, it has been proven 

that when one is diagnosed 

with this disease, 

they have a better experience 

of life in a community 

where others are experiencing 

the same emotions, 

feelings and behaviors. 

In both my personal and 

professional experience, I 

have found that, surprisingly 

your loved one will 

have an easier time adjusting 

to what he or she are 

experiencing because they 

will be able to make new 

friends and it will bring 

them to an emotional comfort 

level that they would 

not experience if they were 

to stay in their homes. 

Family members don’t 

realize that being in their 

homes won’t give them 

the opportunity for the social 

interaction, exercise, 

reminiscing or connecting 

to past interests. 

The other opportunity 

that coming into a community 

can give them is the 

many types of engagement 

that they will be involved 

in, which is extremely 

important to slow down 

the process of the disease. 

Lives change for those on 

this journey when in the 

proper environment. The 

time to choose to move 

to a community is sooner 

rather than later. 

So, once a diagnosis 

is made, especially if it 

is very early onset, one 

should begin to create criteria 

for what you would 

like your loved one to experience 

when living in a 

memory care community.

• Sleep problems (84 percent) 

• Cognitive challenges (75 

percent) 

• Anxiety (65 percent) 

• Depression (55 percent) 

• Hallucinations (41 percent) 

• Delusions (24 percent) 

2. Non-movement symptoms 

can be more challenging 

than motor 

symptoms. Of those 

who experienced or reported, 

non-movement 

symptoms, 84 percent 

felt that they have a 

negative impact on quality 

of life, and about half 

rated them as more challenging 

to live with than 

movement symptoms. 

3. Daily living is impacted 

by hard-to-see 

symptoms. Parkinson’s 

disease changes how 

patients and their care 

partners think about the 

future and cope with 

day-to-day living. 

Non-movement 

symptoms negatively 

impacted the ability to: 

• Sleep (84 percent) 

• Plan for future events 

(76 percent) 

• Socialize (71 percent) 

• Make plans with family 

and friends (70 percent) 

• Be intimate with their 

partner (68 percent) 

• Complete household 

chores (68 percent) 

• Run errands (67 percent) 

When people with 

Parkinson’s experience 

non-movement symptoms, 

care partners are 

impacted, too. In fact, 

psychosis symptoms in 

patients with Parkinson’s 

are a strong predictor of 

increased care partner 

burden, and those with 

hallucinations have a 

2.5-fold greater risk for 

nursing home admission. 

4. Reporting symptoms 

is crucial. Even though 

non-movement symptoms 

are common, they 

are rarely reported. 

It’s important to report 

all symptoms to a doctor 

(usually a neurologist), 

as there are many different 

treatment options to 

address both motor and 

non-movement symptoms. 

New educational resources 

about the onset 

and impact of nonmovement 

symptoms 

of Parkinson’s can be

Chestnut Square: A 

beautiful community 

with new friends waiting 

Since opening in 2003, 

Chestnut Square at The 

Glen has been one of the 

North Shore’s most popular 

choices for independent 

senior living. The reasons 

are many, but to fully understand 

what makes the 

community so special, we 

think our residents, families 

and staff give the best 

perspective of all: 

“Moving to Chestnut 

Square was one of the best 

decisions my wife and I 

ever made... our only regret 

is that we didn’t do 

this sooner! There’s always 

something new and 

exciting happening and 

we’ve never met a nicer 

group of people. When 

my brother saw how happy 

we were, he decided to 

make Chestnut Square his 

new home also.” 

-Don Klein 

“I wanted to find a 

place where I felt an instant 

connection with the 

residents and the staff, and 

Chestnut Square gave me a 

warm feeling the moment I 

walked through the door. I 

especially love all the 

events...I’ve done more in 

eight months than I have in 

the past eight years.” 

-Dee Knapik 

“We wanted to find the 

best location, lifestyle and 

value, and that’s why we 

chose Chestnut Square. 

Everyone we meet is 

friendly, the meals have 

been excellent and we’ve 

got the Glenview Senior 

Center right across the 

street.” 

-Clayton 

and Doris Welter 

“I’ve worked at Chestnut 

Square for over 10 

years and the residents 

have become a special part 

of my family. Everybody 

is so nice... it’s why I love 

my job!” 

-Maria Latacz 

“The residents are so 

welcoming... they want 

you to feel part of their 

community from day 

one. There are so many 

activities and excursions 

to choose from. Units are 

well-maintained. There 

is formal dining every 

night and brunch on Sundays. 

My mom is safe, 

happy and close to her 

family now. I have Chestnut 

and the wonderful staff 

there to thank for that.” 

-Beth Huber

Active Aging Expo returns at ‘exciting’ new location 

Eric DeGrechie, Managing Editor 

In real estate, it is often stated that location 

is everything. 

22nd Century Media also believes in 

this mantra for its popular expos. This 

year, the company’s annual Active Aging 

— An Expo for Ages 50+ finds a new 

home at Northbrook Court. 

“We held our Camp Expo there in February 

and our vendors are excited about 

the expo at a new location that is centrally 

located in the North Shore,” said Heather 

Warthen, chief operating officer at 22nd 

Century Media. 

The expo is set for 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday, 

Oct. 13, near the lower level of 

Macy’s. The first 200 attendees will receive 

a tote bag. 

In addition to more than 40 vendors, there 

will be health screenings available for all in 

attendance, free admission and parking. 

“The expo is a great way to find new 

businesses that you don’t know existed.

make sure their parents have all they need 

for the later stages in life.”

Vi at The Glen: An unexpected 

impression of senior living 

There are a lot of misconceptions 

about retirement 

communities among 

seniors. One of the most 

common, and coincidentally 

most easily debunked, 

is that moving to 

a senior living community 

means giving up the 

independence you enjoy 

in a single-family home. 

It’s simply not true. If you 

want proof, ask any resident 

of Vi at The Glen. 

Somewhere in the 

Neighborhood of Perfect 

Vi at The Glen is situated 

in Glenview and combines 

all the warmth of an 

active, tight-knit neighborhood 

with all the benefits 

of a Life Plan Community. 

In addition to gorgeous 

apartments, Vi at The 

Glen offers private villa 

homes with the space and 

independence of a singlefamily 

residence, without 

responsibilities like maintenance 

or upkeep. 

The 26-acre private 

community also has access 

to exceptional dining, 

housekeeping and amenities 

like an on-site fitness 

center, salon and salt-filtered 

pool. 

Vi at The Glen residents 

Ray and Joan Racelis 

looked at six Life Plan 

Communities in three 

states, but from the moment 

they found their villa 

at Vi at The Glen, they 

knew they were home. 

“We were attracted to 

the size,” Ray said. “Our 

villa has a two-car garage, 

a spare bedroom for 

guests, and we still have 

a den, which was really 

important for us—it’s our 

communication center!” 

Loved ones will find it 

accommodating, too 

The ample space of villa 

floor plans at Vi at The 

Glen provides residents 

another very key benefit: 

the ability to comfortably 

host family and friends. 

“Residents who have 

moved into the villas 

told us they enjoy having 

the space of a singlefamily 

home to entertain 

their families,” said Ellen 

Nemirow, move-in manager 

at Vi at The Glen. 

And the Racelises take 

full advantage of the 

space. “We just hosted a 

party for the family on 

Father’s Day,” Joan says. 

“And everyone likes to 

come for Sunday brunches 

at the Vi.” 

The first stress-free, 

customizable move 

of your life 

At Vi at The Glen, residents 

are given the freedom 

to customize the finishes 

and spaces of their 

residences before they 

move in, with the help 

of the community’s Design 

Center. “We added a 

patio with manufactured 

bluestone and a barbecue 

area,” said Ray. “They 

landscaped it beautifully! 

We’re quite happy with it.” 

As for the move-in process 

itself, Vi has services 

to help you downsize, 

pack, unpack, arrange for 

shipping and even organize 

an estate sale. “We literally 

sat back and watched people 

packing and unpacking 

our things,” Ray said. “For 

older people like us, that’s 

a big relief. 

Home is where The Glen is 

Just ask the Racelises. Vi 

at The Glen offers an ideal 

balance of urban and suburban 

life, with easy access 

to downtown Chicago and 

all of its social and cultural 

attractions. “The villa is 

absolutely perfect for us,” 

Joan said. “Now that the 

move is behind us, we’re 

going to go to plays, use 

the pool and fitness center, 

and do things with our new 

friends and neighbors.”

The Glen and the unique 

lifestyle they offer by calling

Tips on how to care for your eyes as you age 

StatePoint Media 

As we age, our bodies 

don’t perform as well as 

they once did, and vision 

is no exception. However, 

early detection and treatment 

of eye problems 

and diseases through an 

eye exam is the best way 

to protect your eyes and 

overall health. 

To help keep your eyes 

healthy for years to come, 

consider the following tips. 

• Eat an eye-healthy diet. 

Fruits and vegetables, 

especially carrots and 

dark leafy greens, provide 

a hefty punch of 

key vitamins and a 

key vision protectingsubstance 

called lutein. 

• Maintain a healthy 

weight. Did you know 

that by eating healthy 

portions, exercising 

regularly and doing 

your best to maintain a 

healthy weight, you can 

reduce your risk of cataracts? 

Conditions such as 

obesity and diabetes can 

lead to vision problems 

like cataracts. 

• Protect eyes from blue 

light. Most people today 

spend a lot of time in 

front of digital screens, 

such as smartphones, 

computers and televisions. 

These devices 

emit high-energy blue 

light, which causes 

digital eye strain that 

can lead to headaches, 

blurred vision, dry eyes 

and even neck pain. Ask 

your eye doctor about 

the best options to help 

reduce eye strain. 

• Get an eye exam. A yearly 

eye exam is one of the 

easiest and most important 

ways to reduce your 

odds of vision loss and 

protect your eyes. And it 

can also help you monitor 

and protect your 

overall health. Whether 

or not you wear glasses, 

be sure to schedule this 

crucial appointment. A 

routine eye exam can 

help detect signs of serious 

health conditions, 

like diabetes, high cholesterol, 

high blood 

pressure glaucoma and 

macular degeneration. 

Because more obvious 

symptoms of some 

health conditions don’t 

always appear until 

damage has already occurred, 

routine eye exams 

are a good way of 

keeping tabs on what’s 

happening in your body. 

• Make sure you have vision 

coverage. Review 

your plan. Many people 

don’t realize that Traditional 

Medicare doesn’t 

cover routine eye exams, 

glasses or contact 

lenses. Check out such 

affordable options as 

VSP Individual Vision 

Plans, which offer comprehensive 

coverage 

with low out-of-pocket 

costs, savings on frames 

and lens enhancements 

such as progressives, 

and the ability to see the 

doctor you know and 

trust. Plans begin as low 

as $13 per month. For 

more information or to 

enroll, visit GetVSPDirect.com 

or call (877) 

988-4746.
