Senior Radio Buffalo episode #545- 10/19/24
Segment 1 (5:01): We start the show with Roxanne, owner of Elder Care Solutions of Western New York. First Linda tells us what it is that they do and why Roxanne started Elder Care Solutions of Western New York. Roxanne tells us how some medical services (like home care services) are not available quickly like they used to be. Some services are not available over night these days. This is why you need a place set up and ready to go and have a care manager like they offer at Elder Care Solutions of Western New York. The better plan you have, the better it is going to be for you or a loved one who needs medical care. Finally, we discuss the shock some people have in Roxanne’s office.

Segment 2 (18:40): Then we are joined by local discrimination attorney Lindy Korn. Lindy is currently working on a book with Dr. Eileen Trigoboff, RN, PMHCNS-BC, DNS, DABFN. They are trying to bring notice to the legal system on how fear prevents sexual discrimination complaints. Lindy first tells us what has led to her and Dr. Trigoboff to collaborate in their jobs and what led them to write this book. Lindy also shares how important it is for her clients for her to collaborate with professionals outside of her field. Lindy tells us more in particular about the book and how fear keeps people quiet and doubt themselves with what they’re going through. Lindy explains how this leads a lawyer to need a doctor like Dr. Trigoboff for their shared client. Finally. Dr. Trigoboff tells us what she sees in a client when it comes to fear and how working as a team is always the best interest of their client. To learn more, please visit HERE!
