NewsChannel 13: Eddy Health Alert Offers Safety for Seniors

The Community Hospice Foundation and the Northeast Health Foundation will present the “Swinging on a Star Gala,” an inaugural celebration and fundraiser benefiting The Community Hospice, Eddy Visiting Nurse Association and Palliative Care Partners, Saturday, Apr. 1, 5:30 – 11 p.m., at the Rivers Casino & Resort, Schenectady.

Residents of The Eddy’s Beverwyck retirement community were treated to a special in-house concert by several members of the Philadelphia Orchestra. The event was co-sponsored by St. Peter’s Health Partners’ Northeast Health Foundation and The Capital District Community Foundation.

Results demonstrated that tailored light therapy significantly improved sleep, and reduced depression and agitation in memory loss patients.
