New Horizons In-Home Care Lane Council of Governments
September 2019 • Good Life Boomer & Senior Expo 13
It’s about believing in
those people who need
help living at home.
And it’s what we set out
to do every day.
At New Horizons In-
Home Care, we know
that freedom at home
means a lot. Th at’s why
we want you to think of us as your partner
in in-home care.
Deciding to begin in-home care can be
a diffi cult and emotional decision. And
you have lots of questions: Can in-home
care help? What does it entail? How much
does it cost? How will I feel about bring-
ing a stranger into my home, or my mother
or father’s home? How do I know whom to
hire?
First of all, in-home care serves a vitally
important role in allowing seniors or dis-
abled people to continue living at home
when it’s simply not possible for them
to do that on their own. Certainly, some
clients, when fi rst presented with the
idea, will feel their independence is be-
ing threatened. It’s a hard thing for some
people to come to terms
with.
But it’s important
to remember, that in-
home care, perhaps
at just several hours a
week, would be enough
to actually help them
retain the independence
of living at home, perhaps in a place where
they have spent decades of their life.
For New Horizons, the common de-
nominator is that a reliable, well-trained
caregiver will come to you, allowing you
to continue living in your home when that
has become diffi cult.
With offi ces in Florence, Eugene, Salem
and Corvallis, we have many ways to serve
you — plus, we have an on-call nurse avail-
able 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
For service in Florence, Mapleton, Reed-
sport, Yachats and surrounding areas, call
541-997-8115 or stop by 398 Highway 101
in Florence.

T HE S ALVATION A RMY
Most of us, if given the chance,
would like to leave a legacy to
show that our lives have made a
diff erence. We want to know we
have contributed to an important
work or cause that will benefi t the
lives of others for generations to
come. While your legacy will con-
sist of any physical and fi nancial
assets you leave behind — money,
possessions, real estate — it can be
much more than that. Your true
legacy will be defi ned by the values
and purposes your passions have
embraced and shared in your life.
Some people’s legacies will be written on monu-
ments. Yours can be written on the lives of others.
Come to the Florence Good Life Boomer and
Senior Expo and visit with us at our booth to
fi nd out how you might join with us and others
who love our community and seek to do the most
good.

Wellness Essentials
Learn about essential oils with
Wellness Essentials and Young Liv-
ing at the Good Life Boomer and
Senior Expo.
Young Living is committed to
providing pure, powerful products
for every family and lifestyle, all in-
fused with the life-changing benefi ts
of authentic essential oils.
Th e community of wellness start-
ed small in 1993, when D. Gary
Young and Mary Young developed
their fi rst herb farming and distil-
lation operation. At the time, Gary
Young had already discovered the
power of essential oils, but because
the quality of available oils varied so
greatly, he’d been unable to fully har-
ness their potential. Mary’s previous
experience in the direct selling in-
dustry enabled the Youngs to fulfi ll
their vision and establish a business
that would empower its members to
share truly pure essential oils with
the world.
Aft er establishing Young Living
in 1994, the Youngs developed more
farmland in Utah and Idaho and
began cultivating lavender, pepper-
mint, melissa, clary sage and many
other herbs. Fueled by a growing
demand for top-quality essential
oils, Young Living designed and
built the largest, most technologi-
cally advanced essential oil distill-
ery in North America. In harmony
with these eff orts, Young Living
developed its groundbreaking Seed
to Seal® standard that ensures verifi -
able purity and authenticity in each
drop of essential oil.
Young Living has grown to be-
come the world leader in essential
oils and wellness solutions. Even
with expanding around the world,
Young Living stays true to the
Youngs’ original vision. With our
steadfast commitment to essential
oil purity, we’ve inspired millions
of people everywhere to experience
nature’s gift s of wellness, to create
abundance as Young Living mem-
bers, and to discover new opportu-
nities for lifelong transformations.
Seed to Seal
Families deserve pristine, authentic products straight from nature.
Seed to Seal is Young Living’s promise that you’ll get exactly that.
What we love most about Florence is the people. You cannot go anywhere
in town without running into a smile or a “howdy.” Need a hand? There will
be someone available. For a small town there is always something to do
or places to go. Ride the dunes, be entertained by many a performance or
simply go out to eat and watch life pass by ever so slowly. (With a glass
of wine preferably). Perfect? No, of course not. But close!!! And besides,
Florence is our town!
