DALLAS, TEXAS (PRWEB) November 14, 2012

In honor of National Family Caregivers Month, The Law Office of W.T. Johnson is running a monthlong blog series about caring for loved ones at home to help the estimated 65 million family caregivers in the United States.

The blog posts give tips on helping loved ones make the transition from living independently to relying on family members, easy-to-implement home safety features and ensuring that your loved one is well cared for.

The Dallas nursing home attorneys at the Law Office of W.T. Johnson chose to run this series on their blog to give the care providers acknowledgement for the vital role they play in our society and because the attorneys have seen the neglect and abuse that can happen when senior citizens aren?t properly cared for.

?Caring for a loved one is difficult and stressful, especially at the beginning,? said David Crowe, an attorney on the W.T. Johnson team. ?But education helps mitigate the stress, and, from our experience with nursing home abuse and neglect cases, we?ve been able to gather a lot of information how to make being a caregiver easier. We hope that this series provides some help to families caring for a loved one.?

Cary, NC (PRWEB) January 17, 2012

Seven homes were built in seven days when ABC?s Emmy-award winning reality TV show ?Extreme Makeover: Home Edition? headed to Joplin, Missouri to help rebuild the tornado stricken town in the largest project in the show?s history. Ply Gem, a leading manufacturer of exterior building products for the residential construction market, supplied complete exteriors for each of the seven homes through application of The Designed Exterior by Ply Gem. The Joplin episode aired on Friday, January 13 on ABC, marking the show?s 200th episode and its series finale. ?Extreme Makeover: Home Edition? will continue on ABC with specials after this season.

The seven homes are for seven families who were affected by the tornado that tore through Joplin in May 2011, killing approximately 160 people and destroying nearly 8,000 homes. Some of the Joplin families lost friends, some lost children, and all lost their homes.

The ?EM:HE? design team, including Ty Pennington, Paige Hemmis, Paul DiMeo, Tracy Hutson and Michael Moloney, plus a volunteer ?army? of 13,000 people, joined in to build seven unique homes in just seven days. In addition, the show refurbished a local park, created a new playground and a poignant memorial site to those volunteers who came to the aid of others during and after the tornado.

?Each of these seven homes has its own look and feel, but all seven designs were made possible by one manufacturer, Ply Gem,? said Diane Korman, Senior Producer, ?Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.? ?Ply Gem not only provided product, but worked with us to design exteriors that are personalized to each family?s story. The Designed Exterior by Ply Gem is the perfect fit, allowing the individual character and hope of each of these families to shine through the neighborhood.?

The Designed Exterior by Ply Gem, a complete exterior home solution, was applied to the seven home styles ? Cabin, Beach, Eco, Chic, Modern, Craftsman and Bohemian. Products include:
