FOR BREAKING NEWS VISIT www.qns.com NOVEMBER 3, 2016 • The Queens Courier 37 GET WELL NOW Popular Health & Financial Fitness Expo returns to NST Story and photos by Stephen Vrattos Thursday, October 27, the Health and Financial Fitness Expo returned to Towers on the Green at the North Shore Towers in Floral Park. No other event gathers so many experts and learned professionals in the health, medical, elder care and financial sectors in such an intimate setting. Unsurprisingly, the hall filled early, well before the expo’s scheduled 10 a.m. start, gathering both NST residents and local visitors alike, despite the chilly, windy—some even reported hail!—conditions outside. Attendees had ample time to meet the pros, gather information, score some cool freebies, and enjoy refreshments and live entertainment, before they were asked to take a seat, while the featured speakers took the dais. Publisher Vicki Schneps of Expo Sponsor Schneps Communications Inc., which counts the Queens Courier, Star Network, North Shore Towers Courier and “Best of Long Island” among its many media offerings, welcomed everyone before introducing Keynote Speaker Dana Sherwin of AgeWell New York. “Everyone who works for us is an expert in the field,” she proudly said of her company, which dedicates itself to Medicare recipients only. It is a focus, which makes AgeWell different, and elevates them above other companies, which also cater to general insurance recipients. She urged the audience to do their homework and take advantage of all the free advice available in the room as pertains to Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans. The casual environs of the Health Expo provide the ideal atmosphere to begin addressing such sensitive, but essential, subjects, free from the hassle of scheduling appointments and the palpable ambiance of an office. To wit, home health care.
