WASHINGTON, Sept. 23, 2014 – Successful U.S. military and partner nation strikes last night against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, or ISIL, were only the beginning of the fight to degrade and defeat the brutal terrorist group, Pentagon Press Secretary Navy Adm. John Kirby said today.

Coalition partners in the strikes included Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, with Qatar in a supporting role, the admiral said during a press briefing here, adding that all continue to be a critical part of the strategy against ISIL.

\”Secretary Hagel appreciates their partnership and in particular the hard work and the strong leadership shown by our Central Command Commander Gen. Lloyd Austin,\” who kept Hagel updated throughout the operation, Kirby added.

Hagel is also \”immensely proud of the U.S. personnel who participated in and supported these missions,\” the admiral said, \”and he deeply appreciates their service and their sacrifices.\”

About the operation itself, Kirby said Centcom did not coordinate with the Assad regime.

\”While the United States did inform the Syrian regime through our U.N. ambassador of our intent to take action, there was no coordination and no military-to-military communication.\”

Michele Kent Provides Perspective on Long-Term Care at Panel NJ Spotlight Conference

 

Trenton, NJ- September 22, 2014- This month, LeadingAge New Jersey’s President and CEO Michele Kent presented at the NJ Spotlight Conference entitled \”The Future of Long-Term Care in New Jersey.\” Kent was a featured panelist on the topic of \”Future of Nursing Homes & Palliative Care.\”

 

\”Thanks to the many improvements in technology, in medicine, and in payment structure, many seniors may never have to enter a nursing home,\” stated Kent. \”This has fueled the development and exponential expansion of Home & Community Based Services (HCBS). These changes, innovations and shifts in public policy are, as Martha Stewart would say, ‘a good thing.’ At the same time, we must ensure the continuum of care, including a cadre of skilled nursing beds. We must keep nursing homes well funded, so they can provide high quality care. And with all the forthcoming changes in our healthcare delivery system, we must keep our eyes on grandma and grandpa, and be sure we are collectively doing all we can to provide the love and care which they have earned.\”
