Gerryportraitcondensed.jpgGerry Angel
Publishing Consultant, Author, Editor, Creative Muse, G-Vent Planner
 

Gerry Angel, RN, Ph.D., is the principal owner of Long-Term Insurances Services. She is a community educator, and a family advocate, offering Long Term Care Insurance as well as being a Medicare Advantage Specialist.

Gerry’s experience with her own family’s long-term care needs, particularly her Dad, who had Parkinson’s Disease for a number of years, provided the impetus for her to obtain a health insurance license in 1993 with the goal of specializing in LTCi. “I saw the critical need to help families not only protect assets, but also to have an insurance plan in place that would provide access to quality care options and choices, while providing peace of mind and security for their future,” she explains.

This protection is even more important now. With our country’s unpredictable economic climate, people need to stretch their retirement savings even further. Individuals are also living longer, more women are working, and families are often geographically dispersed; making direct “hands-on” family care less likely.

Gerry’s background and credentials are as unique as the services she provides. She received her undergraduate degree in nursing from Duquesne University and her MNEd & Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh. She was a university psychiatric mental health nursing educator and one of the first nurses to enter private practice. She conducted courses and workshops regionally and is a published author. Her book, “Developing the New Assertive Nurse: Essentials for Advancement,” which she co-authored and published in 1986, was an outgrowth of her seminars & workshops.

In addition to writing awards from the American Journal of Nursing and the Pennsylvania Nurses Association, she has received awards in research, community service, and insurance; including a “strategic impact” award from the Westinghouse SURE organization. She was named a “Distinguished Nurse of the Year” by District Six of the Pennsylvania Nurses Association.

Dr. Angel holds dual licensure in both nursing and health insurance, serving as a consumer advocate to individuals, families, and organizations for her expertise in long-term care insurance and Medicare advantage plans. She has addressed multiple organizations on these subjects, published in consumer periodicals, and served on the State Secretary of Aging’s Long-term Care Council’s Consumer Advocacy Committee. She is a Board member of the University of Pittsburgh’s Center for Healthy Aging, the Duquesne University School of Nursing Alumni Board, the American Association of Long-Term Care Insurance, the Southwestern Pennsylvania Partnership for Aging, and U.S. Congressman Tim Murphy’s Health Care Task Force Advisory Committee.

Gerry is hosting a fundraising event on Saturday, April 24th at Highland Country Club to raise funds and awareness for families living with Parkinson's Disease. Special guest speakers are Robert Moore, MD PhD, and Jennifer Antkowiak. For more information, visit www.GerryAngel.com.
