New Partners: Accountable Care Organizations <strong>and</strong><br />
Managed Care Organizations<br />
Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs)<br />
coordinate care for those who participate in Medicare<br />
<strong>and</strong> managed Medicare plans. They strive to provide<br />
a continuum <strong>of</strong> high-quality care including rehabilitation<br />
<strong>and</strong> manage costs through their network <strong>of</strong> providers (like<br />
Seattle Keiro). The ACOs maintain high expectations <strong>of</strong><br />
their partners so that you receive the most effective care<br />
with the best results.<br />
Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) serve<br />
those who are eligible for both Medicaid <strong>and</strong> Medicare<br />
(dual-eligible individuals). MCOs will deliver Medicaid<br />
benefits through their own network <strong>of</strong> care providers.<br />
Next steps For Medicare, know your plan <strong>and</strong><br />
confirm that it meets your needs. Discover what services<br />
<strong>and</strong> providers matter to you, as you have many options<br />
for your care <strong>and</strong> that <strong>of</strong> your loved ones. Ensure that your<br />
plan matches up with your preferences <strong>and</strong> requirements.<br />
For Medicaid, dual-eligible residents at Seattle Keiro will<br />
sign up with one <strong>of</strong> the MCOs in 2014, <strong>and</strong> we will<br />
continue our 5-star service.<br />

OUR MISSION<br />
To enrich <strong>and</strong> support the lives<br />
<strong>of</strong> elders <strong>and</strong> meet their needs in<br />
a way that honors <strong>and</strong> respects<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> culture <strong>and</strong> values.<br />
Dear Friends,<br />
Change <strong>and</strong> growth have always been intrinsic to <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong>, <strong>and</strong> we continue to evolve. We listen to the community <strong>and</strong><br />
constantly strive to anticipate <strong>and</strong> meet its needs. From our original focus on the Issei, we have exp<strong>and</strong>ed our services to embrace<br />
the Nisei, Sansei, <strong>and</strong> all <strong>of</strong> the younger generations, including the Shin-issei <strong>and</strong> the blended families that are enriching our lives.<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> continues to focus on quality <strong>of</strong> life, through culture, respect, trust, <strong>and</strong> kimochi.<br />
Thank you to all who participated in the Puget Sound Asian Senior Care Survey. Your answers will help guide the<br />
Board as we tackle new challenges. <strong>Healthcare</strong> reform <strong>and</strong> high expectations <strong>of</strong> a new generation have a huge impact on <strong>Nikkei</strong><br />
<strong>Concerns</strong>, <strong>and</strong> the Board will take all into consideration as we determine our future direction. We value your guidance <strong>and</strong> support.<br />
With a sad heart, I bid farewell to Teresa Sato, <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> Board Secretary (2012-2013), as she relocates to Texas. I<br />
thank her for her service to the community <strong>and</strong> <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong>, <strong>and</strong> I congratulate her on her promotion. She has been a great<br />
asset to the Board, both as a director <strong>and</strong> as an <strong>of</strong>ficer.<br />
Thank you!<br />
Dear Friends,<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Ted Tomita<br />
Board President<br />
2013 is truly a significant year for <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> (NC). We are in the midst <strong>of</strong> unprecedented change, with health care reform<br />
dictating new ways <strong>of</strong> providing a continuum <strong>of</strong> care, higher accountability to clinical outcomes, <strong>and</strong> new reimbursement models,<br />
all while impacting individual choice. At the same time, we are experiencing an evolution <strong>of</strong> our own community. To prepare, we<br />
embarked on two major initiatives:<br />
• NC Way survey asking current residents, participants, <strong>and</strong> family members to share their thoughts on how we are performing<br />
in respect to the Board’s “Results” <strong>and</strong> NC Way Values. 180 responded! The overall “rating” was gratifying <strong>and</strong> the feedback<br />
extremely helpful in underst<strong>and</strong>ing what we do well <strong>and</strong> how we can enhance our service.<br />
• Commissioned an elaborate research/analysis effort via the Blue Ribbon Committee to study community demographics, health<br />
care reform policies/industry trends, <strong>and</strong> the “Voice <strong>of</strong> the Customer” that included focus groups <strong>and</strong> a needs assessment<br />
survey <strong>and</strong> garnered over 1,000 responses! We learned much about what the future may portend.<br />
I am so grateful to all who contributed to growing our knowledge… there are challenges ahead, but opportunity abounds to<br />
enhance our service AND honor our legacy… <strong>and</strong> we are working on this now! To paraphrase my middle school librarian,<br />
Mary Henry, “I am amazed at how NC has adapted to ever-changing needs/circumstances to care for an entire spectrum <strong>of</strong><br />
people.” I agree!<br />
How does this happen I was reminded <strong>of</strong> this recently when I went to get my mail around 7 p.m. on a Friday… it took me an<br />
hour to return to my <strong>of</strong>fice! This happens <strong>of</strong>ten… for I “bumped” into family members, residents, <strong>and</strong> staff <strong>and</strong> had wonderful<br />
conversations… some with laughter… some with a little sadness… all in the spirit <strong>of</strong> respect, trust, kimochi, quality <strong>of</strong> life <strong>and</strong><br />
family for <strong>and</strong> with our community. This is the NC Way <strong>and</strong> will always serve as the foundation on how we “feel, think <strong>and</strong> do”<br />
today… <strong>and</strong> tomorrow.<br />

A gift from Hammerin’ Hank<br />
The late Henry Hammerin’ Hank Taniguchi was a man<br />
who lived life fully despite painful personal losses in the<br />
WWII Hiroshima bombing. He was a single h<strong>and</strong>icap<br />
golfer with a powerful swing, a tenor who sang at<br />
family gatherings, an accomplished ballroom dancer,<br />
a jewelry craftsman, a world traveler, a fashion plate<br />
extraordinaire, <strong>and</strong> a connoisseur <strong>of</strong> European cars.<br />
Henry cared about business friends; golf buddies in<br />
Seattle, California <strong>and</strong> Hawaii; <strong>and</strong> the neighborhood<br />
Starbucks baristas (where his photo sat on the counter<br />
following his death) <strong>and</strong> <strong>of</strong>fered words <strong>of</strong> wisdom when<br />
asked. He was a truly remarkable man who overcame<br />
tragedy <strong>and</strong> sadness to live a life full <strong>of</strong> joy <strong>and</strong><br />
generosity, a man beloved by many<br />
Ray Kihara, close family friend<br />
Henry Taniguchi, doing what<br />
he loved best<br />
He combined his love <strong>of</strong> golf with his belief in community <strong>and</strong> played in the first two <strong>Nikkei</strong><br />
<strong>Concerns</strong> Founders’ Golf benefits. A generous donor, he honored the people he loved <strong>and</strong><br />
supported our dreams through capital campaigns for both Seattle Keiro <strong>and</strong> <strong>Nikkei</strong> Manor.<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> expresses our pr<strong>of</strong>ound gratitude to Henry Taniguchi for his very generous<br />
bequest <strong>of</strong> $284,700. We are touched by his thoughtfulness <strong>and</strong> kindness.<br />

NC Way Survey helps embed our values<br />
A few months ago, we put our<br />
customer service <strong>and</strong> core values<br />
to the test with a short survey <strong>of</strong> our<br />
program participants <strong>and</strong> family<br />
members. NC Family members<br />
provided feedback on how well we<br />
follow through on our core values<br />
<strong>of</strong> Respect, Trust, Kimochi<br />
(compassion), Quality <strong>of</strong> Life,<br />
<strong>and</strong> Family as well as the NC Way.<br />
How did we do The short<br />
answer is great! Our<br />
four programs (<strong>Nikkei</strong><br />
Horizons, Kokoro Kai,<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> Manor, <strong>and</strong><br />
Seattle Keiro) scored<br />
an average 9 out <strong>of</strong><br />
a possible 10 (10<br />
being the best) across<br />
all 10 questions.<br />
We received 180<br />
completed surveys<br />
with many comments.<br />
The long answer<br />
is that this survey<br />
reflects a moment<br />
in time <strong>and</strong> doesn’t<br />
give us permission to<br />
be satisfied with the<br />
status quo. We will<br />
Respect<br />
continuously strive to improve in all<br />
areas.<br />
In particular, our program managers<br />
reviewed, discussed, analyzed, <strong>and</strong><br />
shared the comments throughout<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong>. It was wonderful<br />
to receive heartfelt feedback like,<br />
“There has never been a day when<br />
the employees <strong>and</strong>/or volunteers<br />
didn’t make us feel welcome.” Other<br />
comments focused on specific areas<br />
Trust<br />
Kimochi<br />
Quality <strong>of</strong> Life<br />
Family<br />
Average Scores<br />
where we could improve the customer<br />
experience. (See sidebar for our<br />
response to the surveys.)<br />
Many thanks to all who participated<br />
in the survey. Your input helps NC<br />
staff <strong>and</strong> management underst<strong>and</strong><br />
how these post-survey initiatives<br />
directly relate to their everyday jobs.<br />
We hope we can count on your input<br />
in future surveys.<br />
Relating these scores to our core values, the results supports our effort in “Making every day the best day.”<br />

Fresh perspective from NC’s new CFO<br />
“The older you get, you realize you don’t know everything,”<br />
fine wisdom for the quickly changing world <strong>of</strong> healthcare,<br />
shared by <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong>’ new Chief Financial Officer, Tina<br />
Masuda Draughon. She launched her NC career on July 22<br />
<strong>and</strong> is ready to “be a part <strong>of</strong> the vision <strong>and</strong> future <strong>of</strong> NC.”<br />
Tina fully embraces the NC Way <strong>and</strong> the values that are<br />
fundamental to all that we do. Of our core values (respect,<br />
trust, kimochi/compassion, quality <strong>of</strong> life, family), kimochi<br />
resonates with her the most. To her, it encompasses all <strong>of</strong><br />
our values, adding dimension <strong>and</strong> humanity to each <strong>of</strong> the others.<br />
Tina has a first-h<strong>and</strong> appreciation for the care <strong>and</strong> concern that the volunteers<br />
<strong>and</strong> staff give to the residents, participants, <strong>and</strong> their families. Tina’s mom<br />
resided at Seattle Keiro, <strong>and</strong> her aunt currently attends Kokoro Kai. Her<br />
experiences focus her on people <strong>and</strong> how <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> will make every<br />
day the best day.<br />
Smart, savvy, <strong>and</strong> prepared to face all challenges, Tina has extensive <strong>and</strong><br />
diverse experiences serving in fiscal leadership roles including CFO, primarily<br />
with not-for-pr<strong>of</strong>it organizations <strong>and</strong> government agencies.<br />
Far more than a number cruncher, Tina can see both the big picture as well<br />
as the fine details. “I intend to build on the solid financial foundation that<br />
has been established <strong>and</strong> partner with Jeffrey [Hattori, CEO] to explore<br />
new opportunities <strong>and</strong> strategies that will ensure a stronger future for <strong>Nikkei</strong><br />
<strong>Concerns</strong>, staying true to our mission <strong>and</strong> core values.” <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> is<br />
lucky to have Tina on board, <strong>and</strong> her combination <strong>of</strong> dedication, skills, <strong>and</strong><br />
talent will undoubtedly lead <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> to a secure future.<br />

giveBIG One-day Charitable<br />
Campaign<br />
In 24 hours, we raised over $20,000!<br />
giveBIG, The Seattle Foundation’s<br />
annual one-day online giving event, raised<br />
awareness about the power <strong>of</strong> charitable<br />
giving. The 122 generous <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong><br />
donors increased the power <strong>of</strong> their gifts<br />
with an additional $1800 from The Seattle<br />
Foundation’s “Stretch” pool <strong>of</strong> funds. The<br />
popularity <strong>of</strong> this event grows every year,<br />
<strong>and</strong> so have our contributions! Domo arigato<br />
gozaimasu to all who participated, spread<br />
the word, <strong>and</strong> helped make every day the<br />
best day for the residents <strong>and</strong> participants <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong>.<br />
Kimono Fashion Presentation<br />
Kimono Master Yu Ugawa’s bride<br />
was the crowning glory<br />
<strong>of</strong> her incredible fashion<br />
show. The many beautiful<br />
kimono, provided by<br />
Kimono Art, embraced<br />
both the traditional art<br />
<strong>and</strong> modern interpretation.<br />
The models (including<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> co-founder<br />
Tomio Moriguchi <strong>and</strong> CEO<br />
Jeffrey Hattori) presented<br />
the kimono with style<br />
<strong>and</strong> elegance, eliciting<br />
oohs <strong>and</strong> aahs from<br />
the audience.<br />

Listening to the “voice <strong>of</strong> the customer”<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> launched the Puget Sound Asian<br />
Senior Care Survey to gain concrete data on<br />
expectations <strong>and</strong> needs regarding the senior healthcare<br />
experience. Almost 1000 members <strong>of</strong> the API community<br />
shared their opinions. Respondents confirmed our belief<br />
that culture, healthcare services, lifestyle, <strong>and</strong> reputation<br />
are all important, but found significant variations. Our Blue<br />
Ribbon Committee, a volunteer group <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essionals from<br />
the community who are experts in a variety <strong>of</strong> disciplines,<br />
incorporated their findings into their work on potential<br />
future scenarios <strong>and</strong> presented them to the NC Board <strong>of</strong><br />
Directors in August.<br />
On the road with NC<br />
Wheels are in motion to exp<strong>and</strong> our transportation<br />
service. We are contracting with Logisticare <strong>and</strong><br />
looking into additional programs to leverage our resources<br />
<strong>and</strong> generate revenue. Our routes will continue to serve<br />
residents at Seattle Keiro <strong>and</strong> <strong>Nikkei</strong> Manor, along with<br />
participants <strong>of</strong> Kokoro Kai <strong>and</strong> <strong>Nikkei</strong> Horizons. As our<br />
program grows, we hope to serve community individuals<br />
<strong>and</strong> other organizations. NC residents <strong>and</strong> participants<br />
are always our first priority, but we are pleased to<br />
increase our community participation.<br />
NC going digital<br />
We are currently investigating several electronic<br />
health records systems to enhance NC’s service.<br />
For the residents, this will mean better care through<br />
improved health assessments <strong>and</strong> the power to quickly<br />
provide complete information to doctors <strong>and</strong> hospitals.<br />

to preserve <strong>and</strong> share. As a family, we embrace<br />
the residents, participants, volunteers, staff,<br />
<strong>and</strong> community members. We honor long-held<br />

<strong>and</strong> treasured memories.<br />
Volunteer Vanessa Lin <strong>and</strong> Seattle<br />
Keiro Resident Minheng Zhou soak<br />

everyone had a winning time.<br />

thanks to Dr. I-Jen Chen <strong>and</strong> the other<br />
performers for sharing their time with<br />
us <strong>and</strong> bringing joy to the residents.<br />
NC historian Mary Henry shares the NC Way<br />
Local historian <strong>and</strong> writer Mary<br />
T. Henry not only embodies<br />
our core values but tells our story<br />
through her writing. She shares<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> with her vast<br />
circle <strong>of</strong> friends <strong>and</strong> is amazed<br />
at how we have adapted<br />
to ever-changing needs <strong>and</strong><br />
circumstances over the years.<br />
Mary discovered <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> as she wrote about Dr.<br />
Ruby Inouye Shu <strong>and</strong> was inspired to learn about us. She<br />
views NC as a very unique organization <strong>and</strong> is thrilled<br />
that we “take care <strong>of</strong> an entire spectrum <strong>of</strong> people.” Of<br />
all <strong>of</strong> her historical pieces, she enjoyed researching our<br />
project the most, <strong>and</strong> according to her, “the best part <strong>of</strong><br />
it all is that the CEO was one <strong>of</strong> my students!” (NC CEO<br />
Jeffrey Hattori was a student at Southshore Middle School,<br />
where she illuminated the students as their librarian.)<br />
Mary makes every day the best day, for herself <strong>and</strong><br />
everyone around her. She has written 75 essays for<br />
historylink.org, a free online historical encyclopedia,<br />
<strong>and</strong> a volume on the African American origins <strong>of</strong> many<br />
significant Seattle locales. Family is important, but at<br />
almost 90, she embraces health <strong>and</strong> wellness for herself<br />
as well. The Missouri native walks two miles daily <strong>and</strong><br />
composes haiku. (She likes the challenge.)<br />
And yes, she’s considering taking a class with <strong>Nikkei</strong><br />
Horizons, so if you see her on one <strong>of</strong> our adventures or in<br />
a class, say “hi!”<br />
Mary’s essays on <strong>Nikkei</strong> <strong>Concerns</strong> <strong>and</strong> Dr. Ruby Inouye<br />
Shu are featured on historylink.org.<br />

Mizu Yokan<br />
<strong>Nikkei</strong> Manor recently served this classic Japanese dessert to the residents.<br />
The yokan was natsukashii, evoking memories <strong>of</strong> hot summer nights <strong>of</strong> long<br />
ago. It was a “real treat” for the residents, just right for this time <strong>of</strong> year.<br />

5 More Cool Summer Tips<br />
If you must exert yourself when it’s hot, take<br />
advantage <strong>of</strong> cooler times in early morning or<br />
late evening.<br />
Be Genki!<br />
Take a shower with cool or tepid water <strong>and</strong><br />
go barefoot.<br />
Sleep downstairs if your bedroom is on the<br />
second floor. Warm air rises.<br />
Make sure the elderly, infants, <strong>and</strong> anyone<br />
with a chronic illness stay hydrated. They are<br />
more susceptible to the heat.<br />
Protect your pets from dehydration <strong>and</strong> heatrelated<br />
illness. Give them shady spaces to<br />
rest, ample water, <strong>and</strong> never leave your pet<br />
unattended in a vehicle.<br />
快 適 に 夏 をのりきるための5つのポイント<br />
暑 い 夏 にしなければならないことがある 場 合 は 早 朝 や<br />
夕 方 の 涼 しい 時 間 を 活 用 しましょう。<br />
シャワーの 温 度 は、ぬるめ、やや 低 温 で 浴 びましょう。<br />
そして 素 足 で 過 ごすのもいいです。<br />
暖 かい 空 気 は 上 のほうにたまります。 寝 室 が2 階 にあ<br />
る 場 合 、 夏 の 間 は 涼 しい 下 の 階 で 睡 眠 をとるようにしま<br />
しょう。<br />
高 齢 の 方 、 小 さなお 子 さん、 病 気 がちの 方 は、 気 温 の 上<br />
昇 とともに 体 調 をくずしやすいので 十 分 な 水 分 の 補 給<br />
に 気 をつけましょう。<br />
ペットを 脱 水 症 と 熱 中 症 状 から 守 りましょう。 日 陰 で 休<br />
ませ、 十 分 な 水 を 与 え、ペットを 車 の 中 にのこしたりし<br />
ないように 気 をつけましょう。<br />
