The Federal website that evaluates every nursing home in the US is www.medicare.gov. If you navigate their website you will see on the left side of the site one can search for the real hard core facts of any nursing home in the country.A simple 1-5 star evaluation gives the reader a quick snapshot summary of nursing care standards. For example, a 1 star facility are those which have the most nursing care problems, and facilities with 5 stars have the most favorable standards from the viewpoint of data and inspections gathered by the Department of Health.For the past five years CLOVER REST HOME in Columbia NJ has scored a minimum 4 to 5 stars in every category. This excellent score reflects the extraordinary care that is delivered to the elderly everyday. From staffing ratios, to wound care, to survey issues, CLOVER has scored tops in Warren and Monroe counties. CLOVER REST HOME is a small 33 bed family like nursing home located in a small town setting nestled along the Delaware River in Colum-bia with round the clock nurses who are trained and held accountable for meticulous care. CLOVER nurses care for those elderly with demen-tia or other ailments that effect seniors. CLOVER never uses temporary agency staff and therefore staff and residents are very familiar which each other. Physicians of all specialties make rounds regularly. CLOVER has a dietitian, social worker, rehabilitation staff and lots of activities including regular outside trips to enjoy the seasonal majestic views. The “non-institutional” home like atmosphere of CLOVER REST HOME relieves families and Residents from the cold impersonal and daunting anxiety of senior care. Specially designed care plans involving families and residents address every need and potential a Resident has.Now CLOVER has undergone a renovation of adding full bathrooms to four of their rooms. With up to date handicap accessibility and private showers with seats, Residents on the B wing will now be afforded their very own personal, fully tiled, brand new bathroom.When Alvan Small, the Administrator, was asked why all this money was spent on bathrooms rather than other amenities, he simply replied--”it’s a dignity issue!” “CLOVER- CARE” values dignity as the utmost of importance to all our Residents”. Residents, visitors and staff at Clover Rest Home feel and know the quality and expertise that sets “CLOVER-CARE” above the rest.CLOVER REST HOME is a 5 STAR NURSING facility according to all regulators on the state and federal level!!! Feel free to visit www.medicare.gov and search the facts. This is truly the best kept secret in Warren and Monroe Counties. For more info on a 5 STAR nursing Home visit cloverresthome.com. or 908-496-4477

Many of us know someone who has been affected by breast can-
cer. This isn’t surprising, considering it is the second most common
cancer among women in the United States. In fact, each year, 200,000
women in the United States are diagnosed with breast cancer, ac-
cording to the American Cancer Society. Unfortunately, symptoms
don’t typically appear until the cancer has spread beyond the breast.
That is why it’s important for women to receive regular breast cancer
screenings.
A screening mammogram can help detect breast cancer early and,
as a result, treatments often have a higher success rate. Women who
are 40 years of age or older should get a mammogram every year.
During the rest of the year, women can also be proactive by conduct-
ing self-exams and notifying their OBGYN of any changes they may
notice.
Although you don’t have control over such risk factors as age and
family history, the American Cancer Society has reported that making
healthy lifestyle choices can also help reduce women’s risk of devel-
oping breast cancer. For instance, studies have found a correlation
between alcohol consumption and an increased risk of developing
breast cancer. Other studies have shown that being overweight puts
women at a higher risk of developing breast cancer, too. Luckily, these
risk factors can be controlled by practicing moderation with alcoholic
drinks, maintaining a physically active lifestyle and making healthy
food choices.
Regardless of age, there is always a need to be protected. The total
cost of a screening mammogram is also covered by Highmark’s Medi-
care Advantage plans. Be sure to contact your doctor so he or she
can order a mammogram script for you. If you have questions about
breast cancer, ask your physician or visit Allegheny Health Network’s
Cancer Institute website at www.ahn.org/specialties/cancer-institute.
Routine mammograms are important for women of all ages
