Shelton-based United Methodist Homes wins recognition

SHELTON - United Methodist Homes was a winner in the 24th annual National Mature Media Awards Program. 
The program, presented by the Mature Market Resource Center, a national clearinghouse for the senior market, recognizes the nation’s best marketing, communications, educational materials, and programs designed and produced for older adults.

UMH received a Silver Award for their e-book, “10 Things Family Members Want to Know About Assisted Living,” in the category of web-based resources and tools for senior living. 

The book provides helpful answers to 10 common, hard-to-ask questions family members have when exploring assisted or independent living options for their aging loved ones.  A few of the questions discussed in the book include: “How do I get my loved one to agree to move?” and “How much freedom does a resident have in a senior living community?” to “If money runs out, what should we do?” 
The book is intended to serve as a guide to navigating a few of the core issues encountered when making a move to a senior living community. (To download the free e-book, visit http://www.umh.org/assisted-living-ebooks-whitepapers.) 

UMH was also awarded Merit Awards for their online digital resource, “Making Sense of the Veterans Aid and Attendance Pension,” an infographic describing benefits available for qualified veterans, and their website, www.umh.org
The entries were judged by a distinguished panel of mature market experts from across the United States for overall excellence of design, content, creativity and relevance to the senior market.

United Methodist Homes is based in Shelton and provides assisted and independent living housing and healthcare options in several locations around Connecticut and one in Tennessee. 
Among them are Wesley Village in Shelton, Middlewoods of Farmington, Middlewoods of Newington, and Foxbridge in Memphis, Tenn.
