Boards /Commissions applied for:
Advisory Board on Aging
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I am energized by solving problems and taking on challenges. With over 1 person turning 50
every second due to the dramatic achievements in public health, Orange County is poised to see
a 67% increase in persons over 65 and a 43% increase in persons over 85 in the next 10
years. This trend continues through 2030 when persons over 65 will again increase by 42% and
over 85 by 70 %. Orange county is a leader in serving its senior population and I want to
contribute to preparing and meeting these needs throughout the next 20 years.
Although I worked as a chemical engineer for 15 years, I recently returned to school to get a BA
in Multidisciplinary studies, with an emphasis on social sciences and the Socio- Ecological Model
which shows that the health of an individual is based not just on the person but withing the
greater context of his relationships, his community and his society. Because of my interest in the
aging process, I am currently completing a Masters in Gerontology from the University of
Southern California. Through this program I have been able to receive the training and tools that
will aid me in pursuing my goal of improving the disparity in the aging experience between the
9
Page 2 of 2 Susan Adams
different economic classes. The research area where I am basing my concentration consists of
early depression intervention for the home caregiver. Many home caregivers are thrust into their
duties with little to no training and as more residents, especially in the rural areas, are deciding
to age in place there will be a need for increased programs to address the adult child or
spousal caregiver, many of whom are over 50.
I am excited to be beginning this new phase of my life as I turn 50, and consider myself to be a
life -long learner who believes that we are all part of something larger and there is purpose to all
our lives. My belief system influences all I do and I value responsibility and high ethical
standards. I believe that the strategic methods of problem solving I utilized as an engineer
allows me to find and evaluate alternatives and seek innovative ways to get things done. I
believe in community involvement as I was a member of the School Improvement Team (SIT)
committee for McDougle Middle School for 2 years, worked as a volunteer at the Chapel Hill
Museum for 3 years, and have been a member of the MAC - Mandarin Advisory Council for the
dual language program in CHCCS since it began and my daughter has been part of the program
for the past 8 years. As my children are growing up and moving on to new goals, I feel that I too
must focus my time and energies on the future.
I appreciate your time in considering me for this position.

Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I am graduating with my Masters of Arts in Gerontology in May 2014 from the University of

Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
After retiring from active duty with the Army Nurse Corps in 1995, accepted position of Director
of Nursing, Carol Woods Retirement Community, serving in that capacity for 12 years, and then
continued in special projects as identified by the President/CEO, Carol Woods, for another 5
years; also eventually had operational responsibility for assisted living, and infection control for
the organization. Coordinated clinical assignments in long term care for nursing and nursing
assistant students from DCC and NCCU. Taught fundamentals of elder care to staff and
students; served as consultant with CARF and AAHSA reviewing health and service delivery
standards.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
Throughout the years at Carol Woods, I met many members of this Cmmunity Committee,
through their advisory capacity; always impressed with their respect for the older adult and
circumstances that lead a person(s) to seek long term care, I knew I was unable to serve this

committee until I retired from the business of elder services. I ve continued to keep my nursing
license current, attending related education offerings in the infection control, gerontology and
health care for the years since retirement from full time work. While volunteering in Durham, I
really want to serve my local community and continue to put my knowledge of aging services
and long term care to good use.

SPICE every two years; recent course attendance at offering regading CDiff; served as infection
control consultant for Carol Woods Retirement Community 12 years while also serving as its
Director of Nursing /Health Services.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
Throughout the years at Carol Woods, I was often involved with Board of Health issues,
including outbreak investigation, tuberculosis control, difficulties encountered in Infection Control
for the older adult in a long term care /congregate living environment. I purposely kept my
nursing license current despite my retirement from full time nurse because I hoped to eventually
serve my community in some capacity related to my professional knowledge. I seek only an
activity that will use my knowledge rather than any paid position.

To Whom It Concerns:
I have worked in healthcare for over 15 years and have successfully managed operations
and finances for medium and large healthcare organizations. I earned an MBA with a
concentration in accounting in 2004. 1 also gained the CMA certification from the Institute
of Management Accountants to further my knowledge and prepare for a Director level
position.
In my current position as a regional manager, I helped develop new markets (Georgia)
and new programs for internal and external growth. I assisted the sales team to ensure
operations and new business growth was aligned with the company5ETMs long term
strategic plan. The region and company has grown significantly due to my focus on new
markets and new programs.
I have volunteer experiences that have also contributed to my professional development.
I enjoyed serving on the Hillsborough County Healthcare Advisory Board for the past 4
years and have contributed to fiscal policy development for the county healthcare plan. I
also serves on the Board of Directors for the Health Council of West Central Florida to
serve their mission to educate consumers in the region about healthcare issues. I held
this position for 2 years while living in Florida.
I am excited about getting involved in the Chapel Hill community and sharing my
experiences with other like minded citizens to improve out community.
Sincerely,

Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I have a background in healthcare administration and business management. I have worked in
nursing homes as a director of therapy and also as a regional director for therapy departments.
I have worked with for profit and not for profit companies that own and operate nursing homes.
I believe the combination of operations and finances are vital to a successful healthcare
organization. I believe local boards need to weigh the benefits and costs of those affected by
the decisions by they make. I have a desire to improve our health as a society, in the
community and in our family. I believe that I can affect the changes by becoming involved in
local boards and talking with other professionals about health. The affordable health care act
will inevitably affect those directly and indirectly in the field of health.
