(Dublin, OH) As part of its ongoing Aging in Place Plan, the City of Dublin has partnered with Syntero to launch the Forever Dublin Hub.
Located at Syntero’s Dublin location (299 Cramer Creek Court), the center will be staffed with “Navigators” to guide residents on relevant choices and resources when seeking assistance for aging, support and caregiving topics.
“It’s a good fit with Syntero’s mission to advocate and support the health and well-being of individuals, families and communities,” said Julie Rinaldi, CEO of Syntero.
The concept was inspired by hotel concierge services which provide in-person assistance. The Navigators will be armed with information to answer questions and provide guidance, rather than providing the service.
The Forever Dublin Hub will begin accepting one-on-one appointments Friday, May 24. To make an appointment, call 614.889.5722 extension 810.
The idea was brought forward by residents and caregivers who attended a Community Conversation in the spring and summer of 2018. More than 200 residents and caregivers attended to envision the future of aging, design solutions, and share their stories.
“They were highly charged, highly emotional conversations,” said Christine Nardecchia, Outreach & Engagement Director. “There was clearly a sense of urgency among every resident who attended.”
