Landlines are Lifelines Make sure your home stays connected to help during emergencies
When there’s an emergency you don’t need to worry about dropped calls, coverage areas or battery life when you have a landline phone. Plus, you know where it is in case of an emergency (we’ve all misplaced our cell phone). With the exception of cordless home phones, your corded, landline phone will work even if the power is out. Landlines are dependable.

Making a Home
HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE
According to the 2008 American Community Survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, an estimated 12.1 percent of non-institutionalized people, male or female; all ages, all races, regardless of ethnicity, with all education levels in the United States, reported a disability. That percentage equates to roughly 36 million people who reported a disability in 2008. While what qualifies as a disability may be open for debate, it’s safe to assume many households across the country and around the globe must alter their homes to accommodate a handicapped resident. Homeowners who do just that should address a number of areas throughout their home to ensure a disabled or handicapped resident can get around safely and soundly.
Doorways
Doorways throughout the home should be widened to allow for wheelchair and walker access. The standard wheelchair is between 24 and 27 inches wide, but contractors recommend making doorways at least 32 inches wide to allow for more room and maneuverability. The existing door unit will likely need to be removed, and the framed opening will need to be widened. While this isn’t necessary for every doorway in the home, it should be done at all entry ways, bathrooms and the disabled person’s bedroom. In addition, any areas the disabled person will need to access, including the laundry room or a doorway to the patio, will need to be widened.
Bathtub
Transferring from a wheelchair to a bathtub can prove very difficult. At the very least, bathtub and shower grab bars will need to be installed. Replacing the bathtub with a shower is also something homeowners should consider when making a home more handicap accessible. Disabled persons often find it difficult PAGE 26 | BECKER COUNTY CARE GUIDE
to lift themselves out of a bathtub. Tub transfer seats allow disabled persons to sit in the tub or shower while bathing without having to lower themselves into the tub or lift themselves out afterward.
Toilets
The toilet will also need to be altered or replaced to accommodate a disabled resident. Toilet seat heights will vary depending on the individual, but raised seats can be installed to avoid replacing a toilet entirely, which should only be necessary if the toilet is especially old and poses a danger to disabled residents. Homeowners should also install grab bars near the toilet to make it easier for disabled persons to sit down, stand up and transfer to and from their wheelchairs.
Sinks
Disabled persons in wheelchairs often find it difficult to reach faucets on sinks that have vanity cabinets below the sink. Pedestal sinks increase maneuverability but also tend to be a little higher. When installing pedestal sinks or hiring a contractor to do so, order lower sinks to make it easier for disabled persons to reach the faucets.
Closets
Standard closets also tend to be less accommodating to disabled persons. For instance, walk-in closet doorways are typically 24 inches wide. Widen doors to the same width (ideally 32 inches) as doors in the rest of the home. When working on the closets, lower shelves and rods to make it easier for disabled persons to reach their clothing. In addition, be sure the light switch is as accessible as possible. In homes with disabled persons, it’s up to the homeowner to make the home accessible. Concerned homeowners should consult a contractor if the job seems too tall an order.

Helping Elderly Parents or Relatives From Afar
Today’s families are more geographically diverse than ever before. Whereas it was once common for families to remain in the same city or state for generations, nowadays families routinely spread out across the country if not the world. Thanks to technological advancements that make it easier than ever before to stay in touch, families today can still thrive and stay close even if they live hundreds, if not thousands, of miles away from one another. One issue facing many families that have chosen to spread out is how to help Mom and Dad when they reach the age where they need their adult childrens’ help. While this wasn’t a problem for the families of yesteryear, it is a genuine concern for adults who live far away from their parents. Fortunately there are ways to be there for your elderly parents even when you can’t physically be there for them.
Speak to your parents about what they need
While some parents might not be able to realistically assess their needs, children should speak to their parents when making decisions about their care. Adults who live far away from their parents might not know exactly what Mom and Dad need, so discuss the problems they might be having on a day-to-basis to determine the level of care or assistance they will need.
Examine finances
Managing money is often difficult for seniors who have had an accident or are dealing with a serious medical condition. Seniors might forget to pay bills or be struggling to manage money with the escalating costs of prescription medications and health care in general. To help avoid missed bills, adult children can utilize PAGE 28 | BECKER COUNTY CARE GUIDE
online bill paying offered by many banks, wherein bills are automatically paid each month on their due date by simply being deducted from a given account. Adult children can also consult a financial advisor to develop a plan that allows seniors access to their money while ensuring it will still be there when they need it.
Research community resources
Many communities provide adequate resources for the elderly who might be incapacitated or otherwise need assistance. Programs such as Meals on Wheels can be a great assistance to long-distance caregivers concerned about their elderly parents. Residents of the United States can consult with the Department of Health and Human Services or visit www.Eldercare.gov and use their eldercare locator to find local agencies designed to help older persons and their families access community-based services including transportation, meal delivery and homecare.
Stay in touch with seniors’ physicians
One way to monitor elderly parents from far away is to keep in frequent contact with their physicians. Discuss the situation with your parents’ physicians in person, and ask to be kept abreast of any changes in their health that might require altering their daily routines or homecare schedules. For additional tips or information on helping elderly parents from afar, visit the U.S. Administration on Aging Web site at www.aoa.gov.
