Home Helpers, best home care for seniors Home Helpers of Alpharetta would like to say thank you to everyone who voted for us as the 2017 Best of Senior Home Care in North Atlanta! Five years ago Hilary and Greg Eldridge had a vision of in-home care with a difference. They built their business as a tribute to Hilary’s father, with an unwavering commitment to providing exceptional home care that would enrich the lives of their clients with spirit as well as skill. Hilary’s father was 60 when she was born, and as he aged this loving, feisty man would always say “Don’t be fooled by my aging body, because inside I still feel like I’m 35!” This youthful-spirit perspective inspires us every day to bring a customized level of service that helps us engage our clients and share in the richness of their lives, present and past. “It is an incredible honor to be recognized as the 2017 Best of Senior Home Care in North Atlanta” says Hilary Eldridge. “We are profoundly grateful to our clients, caregivers, supervisory team and referral partners for making this happen. What we love about our business is that we are actually helping people in our community
live independently in the comfort and security of their own home. Thank you to all of our partners and families for entrusting us to care for those they care for.” Making the right match of caregiver and client is one of the keys to a great relationship. Our hiring process, screening and training guidelines are extensive. When you meet our talented caregivers you can see that they bring their hearts to work every day and make a beautiful difference in our clients’ lives. Their positive spirits are a joy to be around and work with, and are at the core of what drives Home Helpers as we honor our vision and commitment to provide the best quality of life for our clients and their loved ones.

Around the holidays, it is nice to have a few strategies for looking and continuing to look your best. Listed below are a few facts that we hope that you will find fun or useful. 1. Green cancels red. Whether you have rosacea, acne or just a complexion that is a bit more ruddy than you would like, it is helpful to know this little beauty secret. Green makeup, concealer or moisturizer is often the best strategy to cover up red blemishes, especially in a pinch. Apply a thin coat to the area that is too red, blend it in with the normal skin at the edges, and you have found the best way to elegantly hide a red mark or complexion. Knowing this tip can allow you to “conceal without caking.” A thin coat of green-tinted concealer often works better than a thick (and too obvious) coat of skin-toned cover-up. Need something stronger? Consider seeing a board-certified dermatologist to discuss modern anti-redness options like Rhofade, Mirvaso, or Oracea. 2. UPF is the new SPF. Looking for a great gift idea for a family member who spends time outdoors? Modern beach, athletic, and outdoor wear is increasingly being sold with a “UPF” rating. UPF stands for ultraviolet protection factor. It works the same way that SPF (sun protection factor) ratings do on sunscreen. A shirt with a UPF rating of 50 lets 1/50 of the sun’s rays through. It used to be that rash guards and protective clothing were not fashionable or aesthetically appealing. Thankfully, our increasingly health-conscious population has spurred the growth of a whole industry catering to those who love the outdoors but who also want to keep their skin healthy. Amazingly, the average thin white cotton t-shirt only has the same protection as a sunscreen with SPF 4! Just because your loved one is wearing a shirt while outdoors, they will not be truly protected unless they are wearing UPF-rated clothing. 3. Botox and Beyond. Many people are aware of how botox can nearly painlessly fade away wrinkles and improve one’s appearance in areas like the forehead and crow’s feet, but Botox and its cousin neuromodulators Xeomin and Dysport have applications that one might not guess. A skilled botox injector such as a board-certified dermatologist is likely to know a few creative ways to use Botox. Here are two examples: The gummy smile: When we smile,
our upper lip lifts over our teeth. Sometimes, the upper lip lifts more than we would like, showing not only the teeth but a large amount of the gums as well. For many people, an amazing transformation can be achieved by injecting botox at a few strategic points on the upper lip near the nose. This can weaken the muscle that lifts the lip and restore the lip to a lower position when smiling. The perma-frown: A muscle called the depressor anguli oris pulls the corners of the mouth down. In many people, the muscle is a little too active, and when the person’s face is at rest, the corners are slightly pulled down giving an appearance of dissatisfaction. A few units of Botox at a strategic point above the jawline can often release this muscle allowing the corners of the mouth to pull back up. Now, people can see one’s true happiness and contentment rather than the façade of a frown that was not felt. 4. Vein care. Winter is one of the best times to think about vein care, partially because most insurance companies require patients to wear compression stockings for 90 days before the company approves medically necessary vein treatments. Winter is the most comfortable time to wear those compression stockings because they will keep you warm in the winter but can really be a pest in July or August. Vein disease doesn’t simply mean varicose veins. Over a third of patients with vein disease may have no visible varicose veins at all. Some of the less visible veins can have valves that malfunction. This can lead to swelling, itching, leg pain, restless legs, leg pain at night, heaviness after sitting or being on your feet all day and many other complaints that might not seem to obviously arise from malfunctioning veins. A painless and safe ultrasound study can identify whether your symptoms are due to vein disease, and modern treatments are minimally invasive carry a vastly improved risk / benefit ratio over treatments of old. At Premier Dermatology and Mohs Surgery of Atlanta, it is our privilege to take care of you this holiday season and our pleasure to help you look and feel your best and healthiest. Whether you have a suspicious mole and want to discuss UPF clothing or whether you have a gummy smile or lower leg complaints that might be venous in origin, we are delighted to serve you. If you have skin health, vein or beauty questions, we hope that you will consider spending a part of your holiday season with us.

How we can help end loneliness among older adults Loneliness affects people of all ages, but it disproportionately affects older people. In America, 18 percent of seniors live alone, while 43 percent report feeling lonely on a regular basis. This suggests that even when they don’t live alone, older people often feel empty and may not have adequate or engaging communication with family members. Loneliness has been linked to a number of serious health concerns and even early death. As the population of older people surges, loneliness and social isolation are only becoming more and more prevalent. We understand the epidemic of loneliness first-hand, as an established homecare agency. Each day, we help older people across Georgia live more independently in their own homes. But we offer more than just homecare, which includes things like personal care, cleaning, and housekeeping. We go beyond this and offer true companionship and the individual attention that older people so often lack. Our approach starts with the administrative team, who will go to great
lengths to understand your individual situation. We have a personal approach, and we deeply connect with our clients. They know they can reach us any time and tell us about their day. Once we tailor a program of care that is right for each individual client, we connect them with a professional and compassionate caregiver. This is truly where the magic happens. It’s all about the match! Your caregiver will be the person you see most often, and we want it to be a positive visit each time. That’s why we recruit only the top caregivers with a proven record of compassionate care. We pay great attention and detail when matching you with a caregiver. We want you to feel like they are part of the family. They do not just assist with your needs, they become important people you can rely on for support, who also share your interests. We also make every effort to retain the same caregiver for you, so that you can rely on them being there, as a friend would. In 2018, we are celebrating 10 years of outstanding service in Georgia.

Home for the holidays TM
By: Amy Hentschel, Senior Care Advisor The changing color on the trees, the crisp air on our cheeks and the gathering together of family are the hallmarks of the season. It is also one of the busiest times for senior care advisors. As we gather together to hentschel celebrate and see our family during this time of year, it is an ideal opportunity to take a moment to assess any changes in our loved ones that have gone overlooked. We live very busy lives and it is difficult to pay attention to subtle changes in a senior’s condition day to day or detect growing needs over the phone. I advise families to take a moment around the kitchen table and check in with your parents on any challenges that they may be facing. It is important to be sensitive and show respect, and in a loving manner, express your desire to help with any problems. Here are some things to look for:
• Changes in eating habits or weight loss? • Neglected personal hygiene, dirty clothes, and unkempt hair? • Home is not as clean as usual or spoiled food in the refrigerator? • Exhibiting forgetfulness, unopened mail, medication not taken, or bills unpaid? • More quiet than usual, easily overwhelmed or tired by company? If you observe any of these changes, let your loved one know that you care about them and ask them how you can help? Many times, our clients are faced with resistance and a desire to avoid these topics. Be patient and start with a small goal and enlist the advice and help from trusted friends and family. The holidays are a great time to reconnect and enjoy being a family, and in the same spirit don’t forget to check on the seniors around you that may also be in need. Our advisors are always available to answer questions and guide you to true solutions. Senior Provisions wishes everyone a joyful and blessed holiday season!

10 reasons to go nuts (BPT) - For the roughly 75 million Americans who make up the baby boom generation, a healthy diet and lifestyle are the best weapons against age-related diseases. “It’s vital at any age to adopt good habits to live a strong, fit and healthy life,” says Dr. Mike Roussell, a nationally recognized nutrition consultant and nutrition adviser to Men’s Health and Shape. “Fueling your life with tasty and nutrient-rich foods while making sure to be active every single day are essential components to keeping your body young and vibrant.” Roussell’s recommendation? Nuts. In particular, pistachios. “Pistachios are a multitasking nut with fiber, healthy fats, and three specific types of antioxidants that may help fight the onset of age-related conditions that lead to poor health in these 10 ways.” 1. Heart health Large population studies show that people who regularly eat nuts, such as pistachios, have a lower risk of dying from heart disease or suffering a heart attack. Pistachios provide 360-degree cardiovascular support in that they can promote improvements in cholesterol levels, blood pressure and blood vessel function. 2. Anti-inflammatory Excessive inflammation is one of the root causes of age-related conditions, such as arthritis. Pistachios contain a special form of vitamin E called gamma tocopherol, which has unique anti-inflammatory properties. Gamma tocopherol levels have also been shown to decrease as we age. 3. Weight loss Being overweight can also contribute to a number of age-related illnesses. Studies show pistachios positively promote weight maintenance as the dietary fiber, fat and protein all work together to make us feel fuller and satiated longer, plus removing them from the shell slows down eating. Pistachios are also the lowest-fat nut. 4. Digestion The fiber in pistachios also can help with digestion. Research shows that the fiber in pistachios works as a prebiotic and feeds the good bacteria in our digestive tract to improve the health of our digestive system. A single serving of pistachios contains as much as 3 grams of dietary fiber. 5. Blood glucose level Developing adult onset diabetes, or Type 2 diabetes, is a common fear for boomers. The American Diabetes Association praises the health benefits of nuts, including pistachios, calling them a diabetes superfood because they improve how the body’s cells use
The new signature in senior living glucose and how insulin responds to a carbohydrate-containing meal, namely, stabilizing blood glucose levels. 6. Skin health and appearance UV light from the sun promotes damage and accelerates the aging of our skin. Pistachios contain two carotenoid antioxidants that are concentrated in the skin and work to filter out and protect it against the damaging effects of UV light. 7. Eyesight Pistachios contain lutein, a nutrient known to help improve eye health, especially in older individuals. Lutein has been shown to prevent and slow down macular degeneration by providing more pigment for the eye, thereby reflecting more of the sun’s light, preventing damage to the retina. 8. Memory Preliminary research shows that the fatty acids and antioxidants found in pistachios can help support brain health. The antioxidants in pistachios can help ward off excessive inflammation in the brain, a major cause of accelerated cognitive decline. Another study found that eating pistachios stimulated brain waves that aid the formation of ideas and memory processing. 9. Sleep Nuts, including pistachios, are rich in minerals such as magnesium. One benefit of magnesium is that it may aid sleep because it assists in helping the muscles relax and quiet activity in the brain by working as an inhibitory neurotransmitter. 10. Energy Pistachios have been shown to promote energy, which is why so many professional athletes consume them while training. More energy means we’ll commit to getting enough exercise. But what is Dr. Mike’s main reason for having his clients eat pistachios? “They taste good. People are much more likely to stick to a healthy diet when the food is tasty and fun to eat.”
