the Shippensburg Health Care Center where she was admitted. On Det~krn r 5, 2007,
the Cumberland County Office of Aging was appointed Permanent Guardia~n!of the

During the year of 2010 there were some major changes in Ms. Shauli's he h. In
February she fell out of a geri~hair at the Nursing Home and was taken to hospital
for x-rays. It was found that she had a distal femur fracture of the right leg, ~ Token
nose and a laceration on hec forehead about 1.5 inches long which was sut reed. She
recovered from these injuries slowly and she was still on an immobilizer an .they were
still giving her pain medication for several months. Despite that she was albl Ito attend
some activities by the end of the month. She especially liked any activity ~ ~inciude(
animals. One day one of the employees brought in several of her pets and ~isemary
petted them all, even the snake. ~,

Rosemary also struck up a friendship with a male resident. They often justlsat together
in the activity room or the hall and held hands. Rosemary seemed to be very! content
with this. Unfortunately, this friend died in October and this affected Ros~rrjialry very
much. The staff tried to meet her emotional needs by providing reassurance end holding
her hand.
Rosemary was last seen by Aging staff on November 2, 2010. Her appea njce and
mood were good. She enjoyed the Halloween activities the nursing home h ,provided.
We were informed by the nursing home on November 14, 2010 that she ~a Ipassed
away. There had been a general decline but nothing out of the ordinary.
As was previously arranged, Hollinger Funeral Home handled the arrangerr~~nts
including cremation. They transported her ashes to her daughter. ',
Following her death Cumberland County Aging made the required notific~ti~rhs to Social
Security, the Veterans administration and the Assistance Office.
