Nov. 5 forum may open eyes of veterans to their benefits

ADVERTISEMENTS

Lake Oswego area veterans will have a special event on Veterans Day on Nov. 5, and it will be much more helpful than a parade.

A benefit information forum will be held at Legacy Meridian Park Hospital in Tualatin, and it will feature two guest speakers from Lake Oswego in Mike Riedel and Nancy Raske.

Riedel, author of “Veterans Unclaimed Benefits,” is rapidly becoming known nationwide as an authority on helping veterans receive benefits for which they are eligible.

Raske is the owner of N.W. Senior Resources and is widely recognized for her work with helping senior citizens find appropriate living situations. While not specifically targeting veterans in her work, Raske does work with many senior citizens who are veterans.

“I want to help families with the resources that will put the whole game plan together when they get that crisis call,” Raske said.

Her presentation will touch on legal matters, geriatric doctors, dementia evaluation, following the progress of a senior citizen, and taking steps for appropriate housing.

Riedel focuses much more specifically on veterans. Last spring his bluntly titled book, “Veterans Unclaimed Benefits,” drew a huge response from veterans of many eras. In fact, it spurred so much interest that Riedel and his partner Virgil Hockett formed a new consulting business called Veterans Resource Group, which guides veterans on how to obtain the benefits to which they are entitled.
