BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT by Millie Drum<br />
A Beautiful Face Amdal Transport Services<br />
Healthy, glowing skin<br />
Get Where You Need to Be<br />
For the past 11 years, Esthetician<br />
Linda Davis has given<br />
her clients “a world of beauty<br />
and relaxation” through her charming<br />
skin care business in Templeton.<br />
Linda recently moved to a new,<br />
beautiful suite at 75 North Main St.,<br />
#B in Templeton.<br />
“I love what I do,” Linda said<br />
“After so many years in business, it’s<br />
still gratifying when a client walks<br />
in with a big smile and says, ‘I’ve been looking forward to seeing<br />
you all week.’ My field is constantly changing, and I attend numerous,<br />
advanced training programs. From ancient to modern esthetic<br />
techniques, the skin is stimulated to improve its overall function and<br />
health. Every step in my treatments work to restore the skin’s natural<br />
radiance. Skin dysfunction such as acne, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation<br />
occur when biological processes become impeded.”<br />
The pampering and relaxing facials include the Signature Deluxe<br />
(No. 1 client favorite!), Le Petite Express, Red Carpet Grand Deluxe,<br />
along with treatments for anti-aging, deep hydration, microdermabrasion<br />
and enzyme therapy. Special touches include luscious spiced<br />
apple, orange and chocolate facials…. perfect for gift certificates for<br />
your special gal.<br />
Linda uses the professional product lines DMK, Yonka Paris,<br />
PCA, Skin Script and more. For radiant skin, contact Linda at<br />

The attraction of San Luis Obispo<br />
County along with the desirable types<br />
of properties available has created a<br />
real estate market that is quite unique. There’s<br />
something for every buyer and tons of potential<br />
for sellers. Realtor® Diane Cassidy combines<br />
her experience<br />
in mortgage banking<br />
and real estate with<br />
her exceptional level<br />
of professionalism<br />
and service to her<br />
clients. Early in her<br />
career, she earned<br />
the distinction of<br />
Fine Home Specialist<br />
while working<br />
with a Fortune 500<br />
company.<br />
Prior to joining RE/Max Parkside in Paso<br />
Robles, Diane secured the distinction and professional<br />
certification as a Seniors Real Estate<br />
Specialist — SRES, earning the certification<br />
through the education that applies to clients<br />
who are 50-plus years old. The concerns of<br />
older clients regarding their financial matters,<br />
downsizing, selling the family home, possibly<br />
relocating can be different from younger<br />
sellers and buyers.<br />
Within the financial side of the housing<br />
industry, Diane’s interest in home staging,<br />
interior design and decorating resulted in the<br />
establishment of Golden Oak Estate Sales — a<br />
personal property and estate liquidation company<br />
serving San Luis Obispo County. Working<br />
with seniors and their real estate transactions<br />
is just one of Diane’s specialties as it ties<br />
into her business Golden Oak Estate Sales.<br />
Diane’s experience in strategic planning,<br />
financial management, marketing, and event<br />
planning brings organization and compassion<br />
to her client’s real estate transaction; often<br />
one of the most important situations in their<br />
lives. Golden Oak Estate Sales is licensed,<br />
bonded, insured and affiliated with the<br />
American Association of Estate Liquidators.<br />
Established in 2014, Amdal Transport Services (ATS) is the only<br />
non-emergency transport provider in San Luis Obispo and Santa<br />
Barbara counties that offers ambulatory, wheelchair and gurney<br />
services throughout California. Andrew Jackson is the Director of Service<br />
Development. He adds, “Joining Amdal In-Home<br />
Care in 2014 has allowed me to have a greater<br />
understanding of senior needs, as well as the<br />
needs of our community. I was soon approached<br />
by the medical community to consider developing<br />
a non-emergency medical transport provider for<br />
the Central Coast. By 2015, ATS was incorporated<br />
into a separate entity and the adventure began.”<br />
ATS serves all five hospitals on the Central<br />
Coast and recently opened a new office in Santa<br />
Barbara County. Transport options include local<br />
and long distance medical appointments, hospital<br />
discharges and personal journeys as well. Wheelchairs are also available.<br />
The ATS driver can also serve as a “personal assistant” during transport;<br />
providing ambulation, mobility and safe transfer assistance. It’s a<br />
“through door” service that safely returns the client to their home. Other<br />
services include attending appointments, assisting with paperwork, picking<br />
up prescription medication before drop-off and transferring client into<br />
bed or recliner.<br />
ATS also provides the service of a PCA (Personal Care Attendant)<br />
during the transport. Care attendants can assist clients during the trip<br />
and/or when they return home to include personal care and assisting<br />
with incidentals.<br />
Transports are private; offering limited additional seating at no cost.<br />
Family, caregivers and medical personnel are encouraged to travel with<br />
clients. Office locations include Atascadero, Santa Maria and Santa Barbara<br />
with transport services throughout California. For more information,<br />
