Shereff Caregiver Program: The target population of the program represents individuals who are otherwise eligible for admission to Hospice & Palliative Care of Westchester but lack a primary caregiver who is able to provide the necessary care; and, who are not covered by private or governmental insurance programs that pay for such care; and, lack the financial resources to pay for a substitute caregiver. In circumstances where the Caregiver Needs Assessment Form identifies areas of patient need, Hospice & Palliative Care Of Westchester will arrange for and pay directly for an agency aide. In addition, Hospice & Palliative Care of Westchester will also include payment for a personal emergency response unit. The purpose of this program is to enable families to stay together in their home while on hospice and to avoid placement in a facility. The grant is most often used in circumstances where the caregiver is not well enough to care for the patient. The grant allows for care to be provided so that the patient's needs are attended to and the caregiver and patient can remain together at home. The Organization served 7 patients under the program during 2013. During 2012, the Caregiver Program was expanded to also support Complementary Care Services. 9348405 true true false true false false false false false false true false false false false true true false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true 36 0 true 72 true false false false false false true true false false false false X 15 12 false false false false false true false true true false false true true true true true true true false false NY X TIMOTHY RIORDAN 9146821484 311 NORTH STREET WHITE PLAINS NY 10605 STEPHEN LANDON TREASURER 2.0 X X MICHELE GELLER DIRECTOR 2.0 X JENNIFER WATTS CHAIRPERSON 2.0 X X MICHAEL J AMORUSO ESQ DIRECTOR 2.0 X WILLIAM FLOOKS JR VICE CHAIRPERSON 2.0 X X KATHLEEN LONERGAN DIRECTOR 2.0 X BEVERLY THORNHILL MD DIRECTOR 2.0 X SR RITA DOUGHERTY RDC SECRETARY 2.0 X X KAREN LAMONICA DIRECTOR 2.0 X KATHLEEN MCARDLE DIRECTOR 2.0 X CHARLES TRAINOR DIRECTOR 2.0 X SUSAN YUBAS DIRECTOR 2.0 X BETSY BUSH DIRECTOR 2.0 X BARBARA COSTELLO DIRECTOR 2.0 X RALPH PENNY DIRECTOR 2.0 X TIMOTHY RIORDAN DIRECTOR OF FINANCE 37.5 X 103539 25626 MARY SPENGLER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 37.5 X 181748 0 16166 CAROL TOWNSEND-ROSS DIRECTOR OF CLINICAL SERVICES 37.5 X 121393 8476 406680 0 50268 3 false true false ST CABRINI NURSING HOME 115 BROADWAY DOBBS FERRY NY 10522 NURSING HOME 1160005 SARAH NEUMAN NURSING HOME 845 PALMER AVENUE MAMARONECK NY 10543 NURSING HOME 573911 MICHAEL N MALOTZ SNP 120 ODELL AVENUE YONKERS NY 10701 NURSING HOME 219755 PORTCHESTER NURSING HOME 1000 HIGH STREET PORTCHESTER NY 10573 NURSING HOME 207710 NEIGHBORS PROGRAM CORP PO BOX 595 WHITE PLAINS NY 10602 HOME HEALTH AGENCY 262988 11 6415 420734 427149 HOSPICE SERVICES - OTHER PAYORS 621610 90961 90961 MEDICARE/MEDICAID 621610 10305009 10305009 PROVISION FOR BAD DEBTS 621610 -31029 -31029 10364941 70838 70838 0 0 0 0 0 7122205 6910701 211504 211504 211504 119402 6415 47839 71563 71563 0 0 0 11145995 10364941 353905 0 0 0 0 327079 327079 0 3518116 2977017 464588 76511 150099 129099 17682 3318 433301 360254 63788 9259 287272 224855 56638 5779 0 28803 28803 42000 42000 0 0 27054 27054 1216030 1192207 23823 48022 48022 156541 27895 127620 1026 102611 41891 60720 0 344636 269755 67948 6933 89918 81282 7976 660 0 91554 5716 78078 7760 1352 1352 0 63241 49500 13741 44164 44164 PATIENT RELATED SERVICES 3189931 3189931 MEDICAL SUPPLIES & EQUIPMENT 266358 266358 PHARMACY/MEDICATIONS 359471 359471 CAREGIVER/COMPLEMENTARY CARE 114055 114055 232627 13603 213220 5804 11134235 9348405 1668780 117050 572072 0 1907986 1068773 41804 37182 1377757 1128248 0 0 0 0 0 743 0 0 29247 74349 597634 338273 246595 259361 2494566 3788378 0 0 0 0 0 0 52651 52651 6722678 6409685 1904593 1321646 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 45707 0 0 0 0 1904593 1367353 X 4434631 4635544 383454 406788 0 0 4818085 5042332 6722678 6409685 11760 212487 X false true X true false X 480788 239491 291051 383951 427149 1822430 10149948 10767781 10702098 10683375 10364941 52668143 0 0 0 10630736 11007272 10993149 11067326 10792090 54490573 0 0 0 0 0 0 56681 100475 46183 130086 383496 716921 56681 100475 46183 130086 383496 716921 53773652 49593 66352 61803 94772 70838 343358 0 49593 66352 61803 94772 70838 343358 0 76175 78877 68495 65183 71563 360293 10756504 11152501 11123447 11227281 10934491 55194224 0.97426 0.97806 0.00622 0.00670 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false true false false false false true false false false false Sch C, Part II-B, line 1 The Organization receives a substantial portion of its revenues from the Medicare and Medicaid Programs.
