PUBLIC NOTICE AND NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Docket No. 95-24
The County of Weld plans to submit a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
application to the State of Colorado, Department of Local Affairs. CDBG funds are intended to
provide decent housing, suitable living environments and economic opportunities, principally for low
and moderate income persons through rehabilitation and preservation, economic/job development
and public facility improvements. It is estimated that $8,265,000 will be available statewide for
"Small Cities" CDBG program projects.
The application being considered would request $500,000 for construction of a 13,000
square foot building to provide space for three separate agencies that offer persons in Weld County
a continuum of health, respite and bereavement services. The three agencies are Eldergarden
Adult Day Program, RVNA, and Hospice of Northern Colorado. It is estimated that approximately
66% of the funds would benefit low and moderate income persons. Permanent, involuntary
displacement of neighborhood persons or businesses is not anticipated. Should it later become
necessary to consider such displacement, alternatives will be examined to minimize the
displacement. If no feasible alternatives exist, required/reasonable benefits will be provided to
those displaced to mitigate adverse effects and hardships. Any low and moderate income housing
which is demolished or converted will be replaced.
A public hearing will be held at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, March 29, 1995, in the First Floor
hearing room, Weld County Centennial Complex, 915 10th Street, Greeley, Colorado, to obtain
citizen views and to respond to proposals and questions related to:
• The proposed CDBG application for construction of a new facility for three
separate agencies that offer persons in Weld County a continuum of health,
respite and bereavement services. The three agencies are Eldergarden
Adult Day Program, RVNA, and Hospice of Northern Colorado.
• Community development and housing needs, including the needs of low and
moderate income persons, as well as other needs in the community that
might be addressed through the CDBG program.
• The performance of the County of Weld in carrying out its community
development responsibilities.
Written comments are also welcome and must be received by March 29, 1995, at 915 Tenth
Street, P.O. Box 758, Greeley, Colorado 80631. Oral and written comments will be considered
in deciding whether to submit an application for the proposed project. Written summary information
will be available at Room 317, 915 Tenth Street, Greeley, Colorado, on March 20, 1995, until March
29, 1995, on any CDBG application(s) the County of Weld intends to submit to the State. A copy
of the application(s) as submitted to the State will be available for public review at Room 317, 915
Tenth Street, Greeley, Colorado, after April 1, 1995.

As life expectancy Increases and the number of older adults living into their
eighth and ninth decades grows, family members must cope with the
responsibility of providing care and oversight to aged adults. Older adults
needing caregiving assistance suffer from physical and mental impairments
that render them unable to take care of their daily needs. These physical
and mental limitations may also greatly limit their opportunities for
socialization, stimulation and physical activity.
Because of the constant supervision and physical demands of caregiving,
• caregivers frequently experience tremendous amounts of stress, fatigue,
and frustration. In addition,•caregivers often feel trapped because they are
unable to leave an older adult unattended so they can run errands, have
some time to themselves, or work outside of the home. Overburdened
family members no longer able to care for the older adult. may end up
prematurely placing a loved one In a nursing home.
Adult day care offers caregivers a break from the mental and physical stress
of caregiving. The participant attends a socially stimulating, safe
•
environment away from home that encourages maximum independence.
The demand for adult day care services In Weld County has increased over
the last 5 years. Facilities are needed to accommodate the increase in the
number of participants, as well as the need for additional services requested
by caregivers. In the present location, the Eldergarden Adult Day Program
Is unable to offer secured areas that allow persons with dementia to wander
safely, accessible bathrooms capable of accommodating 20 or more
participants, and a shower to assist participants who are incontinent.
Furthermore, the present facility cannot accommodate caregivers who
request overnight or weekend adult day care services.

The Need for Home Health Care
The need for home.health care can strike anyone at any time and at any
age. Securing home health care services is especially important for persons
with chronic conditions, disabilities and persons with low incomes who
cannot afford non -acute care services.
Home health care exists to help bridge the gap between long term care
needs and an acute care health system that is poorly equipped to deal with
chronic care needs. It is a critical service within the health care system'
because it makes. it possible for individuals with chronic illnesses and
disabilities to remain living in their own homes and communities.
Home health care offers a wide range of services from the "high-tech"
medical to personal care services. For individuals recently discharged from
the hospital, HI -IC can assist with blood transfusions, pain management,
home chemotherapy, and rehabilitation. Oftentimes its not the high tech
medical services that are needed to enable a person to live independently,
but rather, it is personal care services that are critical to independent living.
Services such as bathing, shampooing, foot care, assistance with
medication management, assistance' with.laundry, housework, and errands
are what is needed to live independently with a sense of dignity..
'New program space will allow RVNA to meet the increased need for
outpiet training nrehabilitation
well aasprovide personal care provider
assistance to participants In the
Eldergarden Program.
An outpatient rehabilitation therapy room is needed because traditional in -
home rehabilitation maybe less effective since therapists do not have
access to equipment that will enhanca.a patient's rehabilitation process.
An outpatient rehabilitation room will have equipment not available in
homes, such as parallel bars and mat tables, giving the patient an
opportunity to use therapeutic technologies.
Furthermore, it Is estimated that the need for skilled in -home help will
increase 50% by the year, 2005. As this demand increases, recruitment.
and training of homemakers and personal care providers becomes
increasingly important. The new facility wilt provide space to adequately
educate and train homemakers and personal care providers in the skills
needed to provide quality in -home health care services.
Finally, RVNA will be able to offer Eldergarden participants services such as
medical screening and evaluations, assistance with personal care when

needed, therapeutic recreation activities, individualized exercise programs,
physical therapy, and participant and caregiver health education.
The Need for Bereavement Services
We dread the day when we must cope with the death of a loved one or find
ourselves or a loved one dying from a terminal illness. It is during these
difficult times that physical, emotional and spiritual support from trained
professionals are needed. People who are grieving the loss of a loved one
may experience depression, anxiety, guilt, confusion and a change in
physical health. In the months after the death of a loved one they may
• wonder of these are normal reactions, if they are taking• "too long" to adjust
to a loss, or why they feel so guilty. In addition, children may. not be•able
to understand or articulate the pain, sorrow or confusion they feel after the
death of.a loved one. As result, children may be especially hard hit by the
loss of a loved one, and the grief may manifest itself in behavioral problems
at school, at home and with friends. Support services that provide grief
education and assistance in adjusting to the changes that occur after the
death of a loved one are needed for persons of all ages. •
Hospice of Northern Colorado provides holistic care to persons with weeks
or months to live. By addressing the physical, emotional and spiritual needs
of the dying and their families. Hospice assists in a comfortable, dignified
transition from this life. Hospice care is provided by a team of professionals
• specifically trained to meet the unique needs of the dying. Supportive
services to patients, their families and significant others, 24 hours a "day, 7
days a week both in the home and In facilities are provided.
Because of the significant growth in the program, Hospice in presently .
unable to accommodate the privacy and training needs of their staff. In
. addition, more room is needed for the many support groups conducted,
especially those for children.
D8. Needs assessment was conducted Indicating the need for weekend,
overnight, and services to persons with Alzheimer's Disease who need a
secured, safe environment. Support and encouragement for this coalition
comes from many. sources In the community Including the Weld County
Area Agency on Aging, Weld County Department of Human Services, the
United Way, and each of the agency's board of directors.
