Parker Jewish Institute receives 3K N95 masks from family
whose parents attended Parker’s Adult Social Day Care
Led by a highly experienced professional
staff, the program is now called Parker
on Madison Adult Social Day Care. It is
located in a homelike venue in Hempstead,
and provides a safe and stimulating
environment for older adults and the
memory-impaired, while also offering
relief and support to caregivers and
families. The program, which includes
door-to-door transportation, enhances
quality of life through stimulating physical,
cultural and social activities that engage
participants. Currently the program is on
hiatus during the coronavirus pandemic.
Now, the family’s donated masks are worn
by Parker’s front-line workers, helping to
protect them and the patients and residents
they care for against the COVID-19 virus.
“On behalf of all the front-line workers
at Parker, we humbly extend our heartfelt
thanks to Sylvia Huang, Sandy Su and
Chun-Hwai Tom Su for their generous
donation and for honoring the memory
of their parents in such a meaningful
way,” said Michael N. Rosenblut, Parker’s
president and CEO.

NOW IS THE TIME TO PLAN!
THANK YOU to all health care workers throughout New York and the world who
are working to protect those who are fighting the COVID-19 virus.
If you are in the hospital, or if you are not able to make health care and financial
decisions, you need documents to appoint another individual(s) to make your
decisions. It’s crucial to have your important documents in place, such as a
special planning Power of Attorney, Health Care Proxy, Asset Protection Trust,
Living Trust, Last Will & Testament, etc. Gov. Cuomo has issued an Executive Order
that documents can be notarized using audio-video technology through June
6th, 2020, and there is a possibility it will be extended. If certain documentation is
not in place, a guardianship action may be required.
We wish you and your families the best of health! Do not hesitate to contact us
with questions or to set up a telephone or video-conference appointment.
Our prayers and thoughts are with everyone and we will get through this
together. We are available for you.

New Hyde Park, New York, May 26 2020
– Parker Jewish Institute received 3,000 N95
masks in memory of Mr. Par-Moo-Ro and
Mrs. Chin-Tze Lin Ro, who were active��
Parker’s Adult Social Day Care participants
for nearly four years before returning to��
Taiwan in 2015.
“They enjoyed the program very much,”
said their daughter, Sylvia Huang, a recently
ret����ed social worker. Ms. Huang, along with
her siblings, Sandy Su and Chun-Hwai Tom
Su, donated the masks to Parker.
The siblings donated similarly to 30
hospitals, nursing homes and police districts
in the region as well as in North Carolina and
California to help areas hit hardest by the
COVID-19 pandemic, Ms. Huang said. But
they selected Parker in particular because they
wanted to honor their father, who lived to 93,
and their mother, who lived to 96.
Their parents looked forward to each
weekday morning, when a bus would bring
them to Parker’s Adult Social Day Care,
Ms. Huang said. There, they made friends,
enjoyed lunch and snacks, and returned to
their home in Flushing, fulfilled. At Parker,
they could take part in exercises, activities
and entertainment that they likely would
not have ready access to otherwise. And Ms.
Huang, a singer and dancer, had opportunity
to perform for the group, gaining a first-hand
appreciation as to why her parents enjoyed
the program so much.
“It’s really tough for senior citizens when
they sit home alone when their children are
not able to take care of them,” Ms. Huang
pointed out. “But the staff at Parker were
supportive, loving, and caring.”
