make us comfortable, to

Also agreeing are two
HUD loan management spe-
cialists in Detroit who
supervise the agency's -con-
tracts with JFA. Jay Burns
says he can't think of any
resident complaints from
JFA facilities. Complaints
go directly to the JFA
building managers; JFA's
record, Mr. Burns says, is
immediate response.
HUD's Velma Brown says
the agency's annual inspec-
tions of JFA units "have
never written up anything
negative. And we've had no
resident complaints. Our ex-
perience (at other HUD
units) is that residents don't
hesitate to call if something
is wrong."
The JFA residents and
administrators agree that
the agency's biggest source
of friction is the food. At
Hechtman, food is brought
over from the adjacent
Fleischman home, operated
by the Jewish Home for
Aged.
In Oak Park, 800 kosher
meals a day are prepared by
a national contractor at
Prentis for the two Prentis
buildings, the Teitel
building, the Jimmy Prentis
Morris JCC, Oak Park's
community center and the
National Council of Jewish
Women's Meals On Wheels
program.
"We get all kinds of com-
plaints about the food," says
JFA board president Janet
Levine. "It is a central issue
— the one time a day when
all the residents come
together. So it is an emo-
tional issue.
"When Teitel first opened
last year, the food wasn't hot
enough. But that has been
taken care of. There are
always two choices at every
meal. And if someone is ill,
he can call down in advance
and get a meal sent up."
Mrs. Levine says private-
sector, for-profit senior hous-
ing units might have more
elegant ways of serving,
"but they don't have better
quality. Our people spend a
long time at the table, and
linger a long time after. It is
essentially the hub of life at
Federation Apartments —
meal time."
"We are seeing a different
resident these days," Mrs.
Naimark says. "He is more
consumer oriented. The im-
migrant generation was just
grateful for whatever was
provided. The American-
born expect more. It's
reflected in the dining room
where we have Heart Smart
menus now.
