EP 55 - Demystifying End-of-Life Decisions in Senior Living with Cheryl Martin
Manage episode 503202427 series 3649702
When most people think of senior living, they imagine meals, activities, and support with day-to-day needs. But there’s one chapter that almost no one wants to think about — and yet it’s the most important: end-of-life decisions.
In this episode of the Simplify Senior Transitions Podcast, I’m joined by Cheryl Martin, Executive Director at Prairie City Landing in Folsom, CA. With over 35 years of experience in the healthcare industry, Cheryl is a certified administrator who has overseen staffing, procedures, budgeting, and community operations — consistently achieving high occupancy rates, deficiency-free surveys, and excellent resident satisfaction scores. She’s not only a respected leader in her community but also an advocate at the State Capitol level.
At Prairie City Landing, Cheryl brings together her expertise and heartfelt empathy to guide families through one of the most difficult conversations they’ll ever face. From advance directives and POLST forms, to handling family disagreements, to coordinating with hospice — Cheryl shares how to start the conversation early and why planning ahead is truly an act of love.
