Nealeigh to
speak at PERI
Nikki Nealeigh, Community Services Representative with the
Village Green Health Campus, will be the guest speaker at the Public
Employee Retirees, Inc. (PERI) Luncheon meeting on Monday, February 6,
at the VFW on Ohio Street, Greenville. The meeting begins
at 11:30 a.m. and is open to anyone who has retired under the Ohio
Public Employees Retirement System - - better known as OPERS.
Nonmembers of PERI must have their reservations into Vivian Nieport,
Attendance and Contact Chairman, by calling 548-3961 no later than
Wednesday, February 1. The PERI calling committee will contact
all PERI members.
Although Nealeigh holds a Masters Degree in Sociology from the
University of Cincinnati, her credentials do not end with her academic
background. Not only was she the original Director of Main Street
Greenville, but she was also responsible for opening the KitchenAid
Experience, which has become a popular tourist attraction that
continues to draw visitors from near and far.
Currently, in her new position with the Village Green, she has the
opportunity to take her skills to a new level. Planning to
describe the different types of long-term care that are available to
people as they age, she said she will also explain the differences in
independent living, assisted living and a nursing home/health
campus.
More importantly, she said she will describe the various ways to pay
for long term care which can help mitigate the financial hardships that
many family care givers face as they struggle to provide for their
loved ones. She hopes to help lighten their burden by informing
them of financial assistance programs that they might not know are
available to them.
Nealeigh lives in Greenville with her husband Dustin and two sons, Max
(17) and Hayden (13).
