Senate Resolution No. 490

BY: Senator STEC

 COMMEMORATING the 60th Anniversary of Greater
 Adirondack Home Aides

 WHEREAS, Individuals and organizations devoted to improving the
quality of life for others, enabling them to build lives of dignity and
self-worth are deserving of the highest praise and recognition; and

 WHEREAS, From time to time, society calls upon these individuals and
organizations to be recognized for the significance of their
contributions and efforts to assist others in developing the skills
necessary to be successful, productive citizens; and

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud to commemorate the
60th Anniversary of Greater Adirondack Home Aides; and

 WHEREAS, Greater Adirondack Home Aides is a non-profit organization
founded in 1965 by a group of individuals in Glens Falls who recognized
the need for trained professionals to assist families during times of
illness and stress as well as the elderly in their daily living
activities; this group of volunteers established the organization as the
Greater Adirondack Warren County Homemaker Service; and

 WHEREAS, In 1966, the pioneers behind the organization recruited,
trained, and employed a team of 12 Homemakers to begin providing
services; as the service expanded, the Board of Directors hired an
Executive Secretary who managed the agency from her home while also
raising a family; and

 WHEREAS, The agency's growth led to a move to a small office, where
a supervising nurse was added in 1974 to further support the services
provided; and

 WHEREAS, The first decade of the agency was characterized by the
dedication of its Board and staff, who worked tirelessly to create a
service known for its excellence; the agency's training program became
one of the first in the state to be approved for Medicare services, and
the organization earned recognition from the National Home Caring
Council; by 1975, 18 Home Health Aides had provided over 19,000 hours of
service; and

 WHEREAS, In the agency's second decade, its reputation for
high-quality care continued to grow as demand for home healthcare
services increased; the name was changed to reflect the expansion of
services to include Washington and Saratoga Counties; and

 WHEREAS, Furthermore, the office moved to accommodate additional
staff, bringing the team to over 80 trained men and women providing care
to neighbors in need; by 1985, in the agency's 20th year, its Home
Health Aides had provided more than 115,000 hours of service; and

 WHEREAS, With the tradition of care continuing into the 21st
century, Greater Adirondack Home Aides is fully licensed by the New York
State Department of Health; it offers thorough initial training and

ongoing education for its aides, who are supervised by registered
nurses, and its services are primarily aimed at supporting the elderly
and convalescing individuals, with additional respite care available;
and

 WHEREAS, Throughout the years, Greater Adirondack Home Aides has
remained dedicated to serving those in need, and will continue to
provide high-quality, compassionate care to its valued clients; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that when
individuals and organizations of such noble aims and accomplishments are
brought to our attention, they should be celebrated and recognized by
all the citizens of this great Empire State; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commemorate the 60th Anniversary of Greater Adirondack Home Aides; and
be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Greater Adirondack Home Aides.
