We've had a wonderful time recognizing our Shelby County special education teachers for Back-To-School season!🍎👩‍🏫

M4A visited Inverness Elementary School-A Great Place To Grow, Vincent Elementary School, Chelsea Park Elementary, and Pelham Oaks Elementary to share giftbags with dedicated special education teachers. Giftbags included vases painted by Montevallo Senior Center Page and Calera SeniorCenter. We're grateful to everyone who made this project possible, and we hope to honor more special education teachers in Shelby County this school year. Happy Back To School!

Caring for a family member in a nursing home involves keeping track of many details—including their healthcare statements! 📋

Make it a routine to check their Medicare statements for listed vaccines, therapy treatments, and medical supplies. If something looks incorrect or billed without being received, you have the power to speak up and report it.

Our team is always here to support caregivers with local resources and guidance. Call us today at 205-670-5770 to connect.

Caregivers, do you have a loved one in a nursing home? Review their Medicare statements for vaccines, treatments, or supplies & report it if you see something you know they aren’t getting. AL SMP 1-800-243-5463
