Resident and volunteer, Donna Wise and Director of Vitality and Well-being, Kelly Stranburg, receive the

2016 Averill C. Harkey Award of Excellence.

Dear Friends,

It is our pleasure to present to you the 2016 Sharon Towers’ Annual Report We hope you enjoy reading about the progress our community has made during this past year

After many months of construction, Magnolia Villa I was completed at year end with our first residents moving into their new home in early January 2017 The response from our new residents and visitors on this new style of apartment living has been very positive Construction of our second Magnolia Villa began in May and is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2018

We have been delighted to see an increase in the number of individuals from the greater community requesting Sharon Towers for their short-term Medicare stay needs We are proud to report that Sharon Towers’ skilled rehabilitation unit continued to maintain its 5 star rating (the top rating) with the Centers for Medicare/Medicaid Services in 2016

Our strategic plan calls for Sharon Towers to provide the best in dementia care programming for its residents We are pleased to report that Sharon Towers achieved its goal of becoming Comfort Matters accredited in October The Comfort Matters program is a resident centered program for dementia residents with the comfort of residents, families, and team members as its main objective To achieve accreditation, our team had to provide a calm environment while working to identify resident behaviors that indicated pain, or some type of discomfort All team members are empowered to develop and share approaches to address that discomfort Residents personal routines are honored, dementia friendly foods are provided, and the entire team learned and demonstrated the many competencies necessary to provide the most individualized care for our residents with dementia

Our mission to provide care and services to individuals who cannot afford to move into Sharon Towers or who have outlived their financial resources continues Sharon Towers provided $888,252 in financial assistance in 2016 This amount is in addition to the $10 1 million dollars in monthly service fee assistance Sharon Towers has provided since its inception We are proud of this history and greatly

appreciate the generosity of our donors who have made this commitment to those less fortunate possible

Thank you all for your continued interest and support of our community

treasures Items donated to Sharon Towers, that cannot be used,

are sold at bargain prices Managed by a group of highly dedicated

residents living in Health Care and Assisted Living In addition to

Chest Fashion Show and Auction helped increase the amount

earned by the Treasure Chest to over $12,250 in 2016

Leaving a Bequest to Sharon Towers

THERE ARE A NUMBER OF WAYS IN WHICH SHARON TOWERS CAN BE HELPED THROUGH A BEQUEST

You can give a specific amount of money or an item such as stock, property, jewelry or other items of value

You can donate a percentage of your estate

After providing for family and friends, you may also decide to leave the residual of your estate to Sharon Towers

Sharing our faith and material blessings allows us to provide needed

financial support to residents who have outlived their resources

The Sharon Towers Residents’ Assistance Program gives hope

to residents when life circumstances have changed and financial

resources are depleted Sharing your blessings with others closest to

home provides a legacy worthy of deep consideration

FOR MORE INFORMATION

For many people, leaving a bequest is a chance to give more than they could imagine during their lifetime, and

to express deeply-held values in a lasting way. Making a will is a wonderful opportunity to give something back.

Your will is, after all, not only a financial document but a way of ensuring that the values you live by, live on.

The Magnolia Villa, Sharon Towers’ newest Independent living accommodation, offers residents a luxurious new home with a carefree lifestyle.

The holidays are filled with excitement and anticipation as we wait to open presents

wrapped so neatly under the Christmas tree At Sharon Towers, 2016 was filled with a

similar excitement and anticipation as Board members, team members, family members and

residents awaited the completion of our first Magnolia Villa By the end of 2016, boxes were

packed, moving trucks were idling and Villa residents were ready to make Sharon Towers

their permanent home On January 4, 2017, the first of twenty-five new Villa residents

moved in

As residents began to move into Magnolia Villa I, excitement was building next door with

bulldozers ready to start construction on Magnolia Villa II The Villas are an extension of

Sharon Towers’ strategic plan to provide services, programming and living accommodations

that serve our residents and the older population of Charlotte The Villas are the first of

many expansions, outlined in Sharon Towers Master Campus Plan, planned for the future

The Villas are comprised of eighteen independent living apartments on three floors Homes

range from 1,365 to 1,940 square feet with convenient and secure under-building parking

Residents enjoy open floor plans with spacious rooms, luxury finishes, plenty of storage and

even shuttle service

Villa II is selling fast, with over a third of the apartments reserved by the end of 2016

At this rate, we anticipate all eighteen apartments will be spoken for soon Contact the

Marketing Department at 704-556-3231 for more information about the Villas or residency
