Metta Johnson is Founder and CEO of Metta Johnson & Associates. As an RN, Metta Johnson has served those with chronic and aging illness for over 25 years. After working in oncology for many years, she founded the first inpatient hospice in metro Atlanta, growing the program to one of the largest and most respected in the city.

Jeanne Canavan/County DA Office

Jeanne Canavan has been with the DeKalb County District Attorney’s Office for twenty years, and she currently heads the white-collar crime/elder exploitation unit. Under Ms. Canavan’s leadership, the unit has aggressively prosecuted “travelers”, fraudulent repairmen, professional caregivers, investment advisors and family members who have victimized elder citizens. Ms. Canavan has lectured on elder exploitation to attorneys and judges both in Georgia and outside the state, and she frequently speaks to senior citizens to educate them about how to avoid being scammed.

Paul Black/Brannon + Black

Paul Black’s experience as the son of two parents with big health challenges is what led him to the work he does today. His mother has wrestled with Parkinson’s Disease for more than two decades. His father suffered a major stroke in May 2001. Paul’s active involvement in their care gives him first-hand knowledge of the challenges that many caregivers and family members face.

While attending Georgia State University College of Law, Paul gained invaluable experience interning at the two senior-oriented divisions of Atlanta Legal Aid Society, the Georgia Senior Legal Hotline and the Senior Citizens Law Project. After graduation from GSU Law, Paul was chosen from dozens of applicants nationwide as one of three 2010-2011 Borchard Foundation Law & Aging Fellows.

After completing his fellowship in late 2011, Paul launched his own private practice. He joined Chris Brannon to found Brannon+ Black in January 2014. Today, Paul finds great satisfaction in serving clients across Georgia who need help with elder law issues (including Medicaid & Veterans Benefits eligibility issues, guardianships and conservatorships), estate planning and administration, and special needs planning. Paul is the Young/New Attorneys member of the editorial board for the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA) News, the monthly news magazine for elder law attorneys.

Thom Corrigan led off today’s show representing both Metta Johnson and Associates and The Elrod-Hill Law Firm. Thom has served the senior community as a social worker and a geriatric care manager for thirty years. Though the two organizations he works with represent different disciplines within the senior services arena, both share the common objective of providing a comprehensive assessment of a client’s situation and providing solutions to meet each client’s unique requirements. Thom is active in Cobb County Services for the Elderly, Senior Services of North Fulton, and serves on the board of the Georgia Chapter of the American Parkinson’s Disease Association. Corrigan Thurber cropped compressed Thom can be reached at (404) 791-8234, or via email at thomcorrigan@bellsouth.net.  Visit the Elrod-Hill Law Firm at www.Elrod-Hillfirm.com, and Metta Johnson & Associates at www.mettajohnson.com.  

Next, we spoke to Sandi Thurber, Director of Social Services at Gwinnett Extended Care Center, a subacute facility that is part of Gwinnett Medical Center’s Lawrenceville Campus. To anyone that speaks to Sandi, it is apparent that she loves her job, and is personally motivated by helping families in times of crisis and need. Educated in Sociology at the University of Southern Mississippi, Sandi began working with older adults on a part-time basis as the Activities Coordinator in a nursing home. After many years at both Meadowbrook and Delmar Gardens, she accepted her current position at Gwinnett Extended Care about four years ago. Sandi tells us that one of her key roles is as a discharge planner, and that planning begins the day a patient is admitted to her facility. Her advice to our listeners is that they should do the same, so that a family doesn’t have to make key decisions in the midst of a crisis. Sandi can be reached at (678) 312-3064, or via email at cthurber@gwinnettmedicalcenter.org.  To visit Gwinnett Extended Care’s web page, click here.

Finally, we spoke to a lovely duo representing Gwinnett Hospital System’s Congregational Ministry for Health & Wellness. Debra Herring-Gates is the Congregational Health Nurse for Hopewell Missionary Holly, Herring cropped compressedBaptist Church. Starting in 1996, Debra was one of the very first nurses in this unique program. Joining the program seven years ago, Jean Holley is Director for the Congregational Ministry for Health & Wellness. This program forms partnerships with faith communities to establish and support interfaith health ministries led by a parish nurse/health minister. The program supports parish nurses as they offer an array of services, including health counseling for individuals, health education for congregation and community, coordination of volunteer services, health promotion programs and support groups. Debra can be reached at her church at (770) 448-5475, or via email at dherring@hopewellmissionarybaptist.org. Visit their website at www.hopewellmissionarybaptist.org. Jean can be reached at (678) 312-2467. To visit the web page for the Congregational Health Ministry, click here.
