PEOPLE ON THE MOVE

Presbyterian Manors of Mid-America has begun construction on its newest senior living community, Aberdeen Ridge, off of West Fillmore Street on the Westside in Colorado Springs. The facility will offer independent living apartments, assisted living and memory care.

Jane C. Woloson will act as its first executive director. Woloson has more than 30 years of experience in senior living, most recently as executive director of a retirement community in Denver where she received the CHCA Assisted Living Administrator of the Year Award, according to a news release. She holds an MBA in health care management from American InterContinental University and is a Licensed Nursing Home Administrator. Woloson — who is also a U.S. Ski and Snowboard Alpine ski racing official and coach — is a certified dementia practitioner and trainer and co-creator of the “Body Works” senior fitness program.

The facility will feature one- and twobedroom floor plans, a fitness center and heated indoor pool, underground parking, a guest suite, on-site barber and beauty salon, private dining space for entertaining friends and family, and a chapel and spiritual life services.

Aberdeen Ridge is scheduled to open in summer 2023.

Panorama Eyecare, a physician-led management services organization and comprehensive eye care organization, has acquired Haas Vision Center in Colorado Springs as a partner clinic to expand its footprint along the Front Range.

“This is PEC’s first acquisition south of the Denver Metro Area, which broadens the organization’s reach from Wyoming south to Colorado Springs and west to Frisco, CO,” a news release said.

Haas Vision Center is a full-service ophthalmology practice led by Dr. Michael Haas and Dr. David Davis, focused on preventing, diagnosing and treating conditions of the eye, including cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, dry eye and more.

Pikes Peak United Way is offering free income tax services through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program and is seeking volunteers. “VITA ... helps community members who make less than $60,000 file their income tax returns for free,” according to a news release.

Volunteers must be certified by the IRS, according to the release. Elizabeth Quevedo, director of community impact at Pikes Peak United Way, said, “While it may sound daunting, the VITA certification is a self-paced and open resource. It can be tedious, but it is not difficult! We offer study sessions and assistance for volunteers working on their certifications.” The next volunteer training for the VITA program will be offered Saturday, Jan. 21, and potential volunteers can register by contacting Bobby Gomez at bobby@ppunitedway.org.

Pikes Peak United Way says while no specific professional qualifications are required to volunteer, the VITA program “naturally lends itself to bookkeepers, accountants, and those working in the financial sector.”
