By Laura K. Selenka It may seem overwhelming or unnecessary to start using computers and technology later in life. For Oshkosh seniors who are interested in finding out what it is all about, there are people and organizations that want to help. Josh Zimmer is a 2014 UWOshkosh graduate who recently taught a class about iPads at the Oshkosh Seniors Center. A strong relationship between the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and the center provided Zimmer a platform for reaching across generations to share his passion. Zimmer came to the Senior Center as an intern. In exploring job assignments with director, Mark Ziemer, it seemed a natural fit for him to share his understanding of modern technology with local seniors. It was decided that Zimmer should teach an iPad class, specific to the device he feels is highly compatible with the needs of most seniors. Ziemer explained that many seniors have an interest in learning more about technology. He said that when the class started meeting, 40 students arrived. The number quickly dropped to around 25 seniors who were well matched for the class- not too far ahead and not complete beginners. “It demonstrated a very strong interest, and also brought us to a reality of needing to offer more classes with specific ranges based on ability,” Ziemer said. Other community organizations have had similar ideas about helping senior citizens expand their comfort level with using computers. The Visiting Nurse Association recently offered a one-time class about tablets, which are notebook sized computers of varying capabilities. Basic tablets, such as E-readers, can be used for reading books and newspapers, while the highest level tablets, such as the iPad, share the abilities of a fullfledged computer. The Oshkosh Area Community Foundation and The Women’s Fund are in works with Ziemer to develop an education initiative to make technology feel more accessible to generations who grew up before the use of computers. Together, they are pursuing a concept of one-on-one training being available to seniors, using an untapped community resource: highschoolers. Ziemer is excited about the potential of cross-generational support. “This idea will continue to evolve, feeding off this existing

project, and we’ll see where it goes,” he said. Why so much attention to this topic? Of the countless ways modern technology can enhance daily life, what Ziemer points to are the social benefits. He explained that the recent programs and the concepts being developed for future programming are, “purposeful around dealing with impacting isolation.” For Ziemer, and others who work to improve the lives of senior citizens, isolation is a dangerous concern. “By nature we are social animals,” Ziemer said. “Many seniors are eager to learn and it’s our end goal to better connect them with their families.” When Zimmer began his internship and listened to the seniors’ needs, he said he found that “at least half were seeking to use technology with a relative.” Zimmer highlighted several uses of technology that are helpful to meeting that goal. In his class, he demonstrated how to use Facetime, which on tablets and computers with cameras, allows for a real-time, face-toface conversation with anyone else having the same equipment. Facetime can provide the intimacy of a personal conversation, which Zimmer encouraged his class to try with children and grandchildren separated from them by distance. Zimmer also introduced his students to Twitter, where each user is able to choose who to receive a constant stream of information from. A Twitter account can be customized to feed the user brief and continually updated comments from a seemingly unending list of news sources, authors, politicians, and celebrities, professionals in every possible field, or even friends and family members. Both Ziemer and Zimmer encourage seniors to be wise consumers when making technology purchases. They suggest reading consumer reviews and considering products that will have support available for when operating questions arise. Unfortunately, Zimmer found that some seniors had made purchases that were not compatible with their needs, or were more complicated than necessary. Important features that they both consider “senior friendly” include large screens, front cameras, and protective cases.

SENIOR GUIDE

HOUSING One of the most difficult decisions a person may have to make is to move from his or her home to a new living environment. Some people fully embrace moving to a new situation where they no longer have to worry about making and paying for home repairs, mowing the lawn, shoveling snow and going up and down stairs. For others, the thought of change is difficult and frightening and gets put off. Changes may eventually need to be made with the involvement of family or a community agency. This information is made available so that people contemplating change can learn more about what alternatives are available. There may be more alternatives available; those listed provided information for this directory. Some of the facilities listed in this directory have waiting lists. It is very important that you make arrangements to get on a facility’s waiting list if you desire to live there. Remember, when looking for housing, find information on the facilities you are interested in. Make a list of questions that pertain to your needs. Visit the facility, and ask your questions so that you have all of the information you need to know if this is a good choice for you. The first part of the Directory gives definitions of the different types of housing. What is a Senior Apartment? Independent Senior Apartments are typically multi-unit apartments that are designed for and marketed to independent older adults. Room sizes typically range from studio/efficiency units to one and two bedroom apartments. Most facilities have a recreation room or common space for social gatherings, minimum age limits usually apply in these facilities. What is a Residential Care Apartment Complex? Residential Care Apartment Complexes (RCACs) are a form of housing available to seniors in Wisconsin designed to provide another choice for long-term care. All facilities are required to provide apartments with a kitchen, living area, bedroom and bathroom. In addition, RCACs must be equipped to provide up to 28 hours per week of services designed to meet individual tenants’ needs. These types of services may include (but are not limited to) help with bathing, dressing and grooming, nursing services such as medication set-up and monitoring, and help with laundry and housekeeping. This provision allows consumers to

purchase the service they want, with the flexibility to increase services, as their care needs increase in the future. Some RCACs are certified, while others are registered. Registered RCACs do not currently qualify as an eligible living situation for long term care funding. What is an Adult Family Home? An Adult Family Home (AFH) is a place where adults who are not related to the operator, reside and receive care, treatment or services that are above the level of room and board and that may include up to seven hours per week of nursing care per resident. What is a Community Based Residential Facility (CBRF)? A CBRF is generally a facility where individuals have either a separate or shared bedroom, but definitely share common living spaces such as the living room, dining room and kitchen. They may share bathrooms as well. CBRFs are very well-regulated and monitored by the State of Wisconsin. For example, CBRFs are required to do background checks on their employees before hiring them. CBRF staff must undergo certain types of training for specific numbers of hours on topics such as first aid, fire safety, medication administration, caring for the elderly and other areas. The state inspects all CBRFs when they first apply for a license and then at least once every subsequent year. The state also sends out someone to investigate if anyone files a complaint about care or services in the CBRF.
