| Hot Tip For Managing Your Calendar |  |
Having a hard time managing all of the events and networking opportunities you attend? Well, there may be an easier way to populate and update your calendar using the resources already posted on Retirement Connection's website - here's how:
- Go to the Networking Page
- Click on the button for the Events Calendar at the top of that page.
- Once the calendar opens, on the bottom right, click the button for "Google Calendar".
- This will add this calendar and all supporting info to your calendar page if you use Google Calendar.
- You can then also sync Google Calendar with Outlook, smart phones and other applications.
What's so great about this? As meeting locations or topics change- your calendar is automatically updated as we receive the updated details. We also provide a web link to more information for your calendar. The networking calendar remains independent from your personal entries for quick viewing.
(you will need a FREE google email account to do this)
We are happy to assist you in setting this up - call Amy

Case Management Week, October 14-19
Case Management Treat Cart
The Case managers at Salem Health will be distributing gift bags to all case management staff with "treats" during CM week (October 14-19). If any of the vendors would like to donate any "treats" for the care managers, it would be allowed as this would be for all of the department to share. The hospital recommends- if vendors choose donate their items, they should be shared by all, rather than to bring a single gift basket to the floor. When things are brought to the individual floors, not all staff can appreciate your gift, and it may be disruptive to their jobs at the time you visit.
Retirement Connection has donated the bags for case management staff, and these will be filled with any goodies then delivered to EVERY case management staff member.
There are 80 staff members in the department. We understand that not everyone can contribute a huge item to 80 people, so do what is best for your company- or simply send 80 hand written thank you cards.
Here are some suggestions from me: (just to give ideas)
- 80 hand written notes of appreciation
- 20 x $5 starbucks gift cards
- 80 granola bars with your sticker on the back
- 40 travel coffee mugs filled with jolly ranchers
- Ideas may be: chocolate, granola bars, smoothy packets, etc.. Maybe add a sticker/business card to your "treats".
Try to include at least 20 of an item please!
Here are the drop off times if you wish to participate:
Tuesday, October 8th, 9am-4pm
Location: Dale's Remodeling, 5514 Commercial St SE, Salem, 97306
Wednesday, October 9th 9-10:30 at the Lifestyles Meeting
Location: Marian Estates, 390 SE Church St - Sublimity, OR
Wednesday, October 9th 11am-1pm at the Hospital
Location: Salem Health, Building B, 5th Floor

Nuggets of Knowledge
Calmness
"In all activity practice Calmness." To remain calm amidst the chaos of life requires a tremendous amount of focused energy. Be calmly active and actively calm." - Chinese Proverb After just going to print for the Salem edition, prepping for Southern Oregon and beginning the wrap up for Portland/Vancouver- all while planning 6 hospital vendor fairs and 3 release parties...Chaos is an understatement of our present office dynamic. There is a lot of energy running amuck, which doesn't always translate to productivity. Focusing that energy is where the magic happens. - Amy
