Worth More Than Rubies | Eve Gelb | TEDxCSULB

How can your small gestures make a world of difference? Micro-volunteering with older adults doesn’t just benefit the senior by helping them feel recognized and valued – as we all deserve – but also benefits the community at large. It starts with empathy, and the opportunities are endless. With more than 20 years of experience in the aging services field, Eve Gelb has dedicated her career to serving seniors. Her career path was inspired by her Granny Jane and she has made it her purpose to raise awareness of the untapped potential and gifts that seniors have to offer us as individuals and as a society.

As the Senior Vice President of Healthcare Services at SCAN Health Plan, Eve works to develop programs and services that address the most critical needs of older adults. In her role she is responsible for the functions that focus on delivering a person-centered approach, including care management and coordination that go beyond healthcare alone. The goal is to meets the unique needs of older adults at every stage of their aging journey.

As a member of national coalitions that focus on supporting the most vulnerable of the older adult population, she serves as their voice, advocating for policy and legislation on their behalf. She is also an active member of the community advisory committee of the MPH program at Long Beach State University. She holds a Master of Public Health from Tulane University and her Bachelor of Arts from the University of California, Los Angeles.
