Ingleside at King Farm Retirement Community
COVER STORY
In (Perfect) Time By Christy Brudin
A
s lifelong dancers, Clifford and Lydia Hudsick certainly know how to stay in time. Their great timing also extends beyond the dance floor. The Hudsicks met in the Pacific Northwest but have always been willing to move when the time was right. The cosmopolitan couple recently became Charter Members of Gardenside, Ingleside at King Farm’s new independent living residences. An exciting new addition to the Ingleside at King Farm campus, Gardenside will add 120 new independent living residences, memory support assisted living residences, and a state-of-the art Center for Healthy Living. The Center will include a cultural arts center, art studio, library, classrooms, game and card rooms, fitness center, salon and spa, and a variety of other amenities. The Center reflects Ingleside at King Farm’s ongoing commitment to providing residents with the resources to achieve and maintain an integrated and engaged life. Gardenside residents will also enjoy all the benefits of Ingleside at King Farm’s larger campus and the surrounding community amenities. Ingleside is located in the heart of the walkable, intergenerational community of King Farm. Ingleside has more than a century of expertise in the senior living field and is proud to offer high-quality care coupled with the security and peace of mind that comes with choosing a nationally accredited life plan community. Clifford and Lydia started searching for retirement communities in the D.C. Metropolitan region because they wanted to be closer to their daughter and her family—especially their two young grandchildren. When they heard about Gardenside, everything seemed to click. “We came to King Farm once and just fell in love with how walkable the larger community is,” said
800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
Lydia. “We can walk to a major grocery store, cute restaurants and all kinds of services quicker than we could walk to the gym where we were living. It’s just a great community.”
Time to Dance
A native of New York, Clifford moved to Michigan to complete his graduate work in urban planning. He was then recruited for a position in Portland. After starting his career in civil engineering, Clifford transitioned into urban planning. He was one of the key planners behind the Portland International Airport nearly 30 years ago. After earning an MBA and stints in real estate finance and banking, Clifford ended his career as the Vice President of Finance of a large development company. While not a major piece of his long and accomplished career, his work at the Portland Port Authority was certainly memorable. “On her first day of work at the Port of Portland, I met Lydia, and I fell in love,” he recalled. “On our first date, we played racquetball. On our second date, I cooked dinner. On our third date we went to Earthquake Ethel’s, a disco club, after seeing Flash Dance,” Clifford said. “And that was it. We’ve been together ever since.” Raised in Smyrna, Tenn., just outside of Nashville, Lydia attended the University of Florida and later moved to San Francisco. When she relocated to Portland and earned an MBA, she began working at the Port Authority and met Clifford—finding both her partner and her calling in one place. Lydia managed the research department at the Portland Port Authority for 20 years. Her department did marketing, transportation and economic research. Lydia also served as Assistant Treasurer for the Port Authority during her tenure.
Retirement Time
After retiring, the Hudsicks spent several years living in Portland and wintering in Florida. Their time Continued on page 12

in Florida prompted a more permanent move. “We were spending winters on a barrier island in Florida, and we realized that there were so many people out and about during the day,” recalled Lydia. “It wasn’t like that in Portland. Everyone was at work. It was so much more fun to be surrounded by other retirees and have people to mingle with during day.” A fortuitous trip to Savannah led the couple to the perfect lifestyle. They toured an active adult community near Hilton Head, S.C. and decided on a whim to place their name in the housing lottery. When the community called and said they had been selected, the Hudsicks were already on their way back to Oregon. The adventurous couple turned the car around and drove back to the community they would then call home for 14 years.
Family Time
While the Hudsicks loved their active adult community, they began to tire of the nearly 11-hour drive to visit their daughter and her family in Maryland. “The drive was just too long, and our daughter wants us to

In addition to the freedom and peace of mind that moving to Gardenside provides, the Hudsicks are also looking forward to becoming founding members of the new community. Residents will begin moving into Gardenside’s new independent living homes in November 2019. The charter residents will have a unique opportunity to form connections and influence the atmosphere of the community. “There are only a few times in life when everybody moves at the same time. College is one,” Lydia said. “When you all move in together, there is this automatic bond. It helps encourage friendships and connections. We are very much looking forward to it.”

When the Hudsicks started to search for life plan communities in Maryland, their friends were shocked. “People told us it was too early for us to move to a life plan community. But we knew that if you wait five years, The Time is Right it might be too late,” said Lydia. “We wanted to move earlier and find the The unique lifestyle offered by perfect place.

POSITIVE AGING
The Positive Aging Network Helping organizations do more good together Local organizations have been committed to making aging a more positive experience for decades. Unfortunately, they often work in isolation with small or non-existent budgets. Too often, their only resource is a passion for the older adults they serve. The Positive Aging Network seeks to change that dynamic by uniting and empowering these powerful community resources. What is the Positive Aging Network? The Positive Aging Network is a group of community-based providers who serve older adults and their families. The Network will unite organizations that are promoting positive aging for the growing older adult population. Dozens of small organizations and initiatives serve seniors throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. These programs are innovative, personcentered and mission-driven. They provide support and care for older adults—and they do it with few or no paid staff members. Communitybased non-profit organizations are almost exclusively dependent on volunteer manpower and grassroots fundraising. How will the Positive Aging Network help? The Positive Aging Network will serve the organizations that serve older adults—providing connections, events, education and promotion. Positive Connections. By bringing providers together, we will help them improve operations and enhance fundraising efforts— ultimately giving them the tools and the connections to broaden their missions and serve more people. Positive Events. The Positive Aging Network will offer many events including networking events 14
The Positive Aging Network is a group for local non-profit providers who serve older adults and their families. Community-based organizations are frequently underfunded and underrated. The Network will provide connections, events, education and promotion for the local organizations that strive to make aging a more positive experience.
The Positive Aging Network will unite and promote local nonprofit organizations to help them do more good for more people. and an annual leadership summit. Positive Education. Small organizations frequently struggle with maintaining continuing education and learning about emerging trends. The Positive Aging Network will offer digital updates on opportunities and solutions, as well as timely webinars. Positive Promotion. Members of the network will be promoted in the Positive Aging Sourcebook in print and online at no charge to them.
Positive Outcomes. For older adults and their families, supporting, promoting and empowering these providers means more services and more options. Helping local nonprofits grow ultimately helps our communities better prepare for the impending growth of the older adult population. How should I join the Network or find a Network member? Providers interested in joining the Network should contact the Positive Aging Sourcebook at 800-394-9990 or steve@proaging.com. There is no cost to providers for joining the network. Older adults and their families should use the chart on the following page to find local nonprofit providers who may be able to enhance their aging experience. While their services vary widely, all these local providers are committed to helping you create and maintain your best—most positive—life, no matter what your age. 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com

PUBLISHER’S NOTE This issue is my favorite. I know you shouldn’t play favorites, but I have never been more excited about a new issue of Sourcebook in my nearly 30 years of publishing! We’ve rethought, reorganized, redesigned and rewrote—all to revamp your reader experience. Here are just a few of the changes you’ll see in this issue: Positive Aging - We decided to “retire” the retirement living and graduate to Positive Aging. It’s a more fitting name for the experience modern providers and communities are delivering. Geographic and Category Search - We added some new tables that enable you to search for nearly all providers by region. This complements the category tables we have been publishing for nearly three decades. See page 22.
800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
Homesharing (p. 147), Smart Lifestyle Communities (p. 49) and Villages (p. 168) - We are excited to present three new solutions that are exclusive to Sourcebook. New Design - With feedback from our readers and featured providers, we made some changes that have improved readability. Professional Section - Sourcebook has been used and distributed by thousands of influential professionals for years. It only made sense for us to develop a new section to help them do their jobs better. See page 170. We look forward to your feedback. Tell us what you like, what you need, and what you’d like to see in the future. We have more positive changes planned!

FEATURE STORY
Knollwood, A Military Life Plan Community
A resident of Knollwood for 18 years, Thelma Mrazek is grateful for the support and camaraderie that the community provides.
Tech and Time By Christy Brudin
T
he power of technology is staggering. But it is often seen as dehumanizing— leading to a lack of authentic, faceto-face connections. It does not have to be that way. One local retirement community has struck the balance between using technology and leveraging time together. At Knollwood, a military life plan community and not for profit, in Northwest Washington, D.C., residents benefit from the use of cutting-edge technology for both advanced physical therapy and social engagement. They also enjoy the

company of like-minded peers and assistance from a dedicated, professional staff. With tech and time, Knollwood residents are remaining engaged and living well.
A Life of Service
The military has always been a part of Thelma Mrazek’s life. Her father was an Army officer during WWI. Her husband, Col. James Mrazek, was a West Point graduate who served as an officer during WWII and helped found the Airborne Operations. A glider infantryman, Col. Mrazek went on to write books about the unique work of his unit. “He felt that the glider infan-
try was largely unknown and got little recognition compared to the paratroopers of WWII,” Thelma recalled. “We traveled throughout Europe and interviewed people about the different battles, and he wrote about it all. That was a very interesting time.” A native of Jacksonville, Florida, Thelma moved to New York City after graduating from college. She later relocated to D.C. when she was offered a job as an editor. “I met my husband after I moved here, and I followed him throughout the world,” she said. While they were traveling the globe, Thelma continued to work as a writer and editor. The couple

eventually settled in Bethesda. The Mrazeks first learned about Knollwood when they helped his mother relocate to the community. The couple often visited her, and she was always happy and engaged. Years later, when some of Col. Mrazek’s classmates from West Point suggested that they all move to Knollwood, the couple was ready. “We had been coming here for so many years, and we knew it was a great place,” Thelma explained.
Support and Camaraderie
A Broadening Impact Originally founded as a 501c3 charity to house and support Army widows who lost their spouses in WWII, Knollwood has broadened its mission over the years to welcome commissioned officers from every branch of the military, the Public Health Service and NOAA. Recently, the community expanded its eligibility to include high-level officials of grade GS-14

About a month later, I get a detailed report on my health, and they get my information to use in their studies.” At a recent community meeting, Thelma felt compelled to speak up about her experience with aging. “They were talking about measures the D.C. government should take to help people age in place in their homes,” she said. “I pointed out that many people don’t want to stay in a house by themselves—eat by themselves, cook by themselves, shop by themselves. Instead, they could live in a real community like this.” Thelma concluded, “This is just a much better way to live in your senior years.”
Innovations for Healthy Aging
Knollwood residents don’t just participate in studies, the community is actually the global test site for some of the most advanced technology currently being used to foster independent living for older adults. To help residents maintain mobility and physical strength, Knollwood is enlisting cuttingedge technology. In February 2018, the community began using the EksoGT TM, a ready-to-wear, Continued on page 20

This technology can mean the difference between permanent disability and regaining the ability to walk. Knollwood is the first and only Life Plan community to offer exoskeleton therapy as part of their in-house physical therapy program. The community uses the device to help stroke patients recover and to help other patients rebuild lower body strength and stamina. Knollwood is also working with Trinity College, based in Dublin, Ireland, to develop, test and deploy a socially assistive robot. The robot is named Stevie.

Knollwood welcome the use of technology to enhance their lives. They have served their country and now they are proud to live in a community that is doing its part to serve an aging population. For a resident population accustomed to leading in their military careers, it is no wonder they have rallied to lead once more in support of research initiatives, pioneering work in robotics and artificial intelligence, and unique therapy innovations like Ekso bionics. Knollwood’s innovative programs and exceptional staff and residents prove how powerful technology can be when it is combined with time together. Merge the force of technology with the often-untapped potential of real human connections, and the possibilities are virtually limitless. Knollwood’s residents are using technology and spending time together. They are aging— and they are doing it well.

Elder Law
What is elder or special needs law? Legal issues that affect people as they age and people with special needs are growing in number. Our laws and regulations are becoming more complex, and each state has different laws. Actions taken with regard to a single matter may have unintended legal outcomes. It is important for attorneys working with seniors, people with special needs, and their families to have a broad understanding of the laws that may have an impact on a given situation to avoid future problems. Elder and Special Needs Law encompasses many different fields of law. Some of these include: • Preservation/transfer of assets seeking to avoid spousal impoverishment when one spouse enters a nursing home • Medicaid • Medicare claims and appeals
• Social Security and disability claims and appeals • Supplemental and long-term health insurance issues • Tax planning • Disability planning, including use of durable powers of attorney, living trusts, “living wills” for financial management and health care decisions, and other means of delegating management and decision-making to another in case of incompetency or incapacity • Access to health care in a managed care environment • Conservatorships and guardianships • Estate planning, including planning for the management of one’s estate during life and its disposition on death through the use of trusts, wills and other planning documents
• Probate and administration of estates • Administration and management of trusts • Long-term care placements in nursing homes and life-care communities • Nursing home issues, including questions of patients’ rights and nursing home quality • Elder abuse and fraud recovery cases • Housing issues, including discrimination and home equity conversions • Age discrimination in employment • Retirement, including public and private retirement benefits, survivor benefits and pension benefits • Health law • Mental health law.

ELDER LAW
Find an Elder Law Provider Use our step-by-step guide:
STEP 1 – Know Your Needs Organize and outline all the information pertinent to your situation. If you are calling on behalf of a loved one, make sure that you have as many specific details as possible. STEP 2 – Call Attorneys and Ask How long has the attorney been in practice? Does his or her practice emphasize a particular area of law? How long has he or she been in this field? What percentage of his or her practice is devoted to Elder or Special Needs Law? Is there a fee for the first consultation, and if so how much is it? STEP 3 – Initial Consultation When you have found a prospective attorney, make an appointment to see him or her. After you have explained your situation, ask: What will it take to resolve it? Are there any alternate courses of action?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each possibility? What is the estimate of the cost to resolve your problem and how long will it take? STEP 4 – Discussing Fees Do you bill weekly, monthly, or upon completion of work? Do you charge by the hour? Are there different hourly rates for work performed by attorneys, paralegals and secretaries? Is there a flat fee for this service? Will there be any out-of-pocket expenses (charges for copies, postage, messenger fees, court fees, deposition fees and other such costs)? STEP 5 – Make It a Good Experience Once you decide to hire an attorney, ask that your arrangement be put in writing. A positive and open relationship between an attorney and a client benefits everyone. The key is communication. Source: National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys

FINANCIAL ADVICE
Financial Planning Tips for planning for the future Talking about money is often the third rail of family relationships. Touching on the subject can be extremely dangerous. For too many families, fear and mistrust leads to silence—and that silence can be far more risky than the dreaded money conversation. Families who do not discuss an older relative’s financial situation and lifestyle preferences may be left with fewer choices when a crisis strikes. By using some simple approaches, adult children or other loved ones can make these conversations easier and more productive. Tip #1 – Schedule the conversation. Don’t initiate an impromptu conversation about finances. Schedule the conversation and make sure that all the key players are in the room and ready to address the issues.
If you need to, use technology to allow participants to be virtually present. Make sure the timing is good for your parent or other loved one and that they know they will be asked to discuss their financial situation and their vision for the future. For the initial meeting, simply focus on opening a dialogue and emphasizing that all parties want to make sure that the older adult’s wishes are clear. Tip #2 – Focus on wants/ needs initially. For many families, money has been a taboo topic for decades. Instead of asking about retirement savings, accounts and liabilities at the outset, focus first on what your parent or loved one envisions for the future. Ask about how they plan to spend their later years. Ask if they have
thought about the “what ifs.” What if they are injured? What if one or both of them develops a long-term illness? What if they need additional care? Emphasize that you are asking these questions because you love them and want to make sure you can honor their wishes as they age. Tip #3 – Use real world examples. Everyone knows someone whose parent died with no will, leaving behind chaos and family drama. Likewise, most adult children know someone who is making difficult care decisions for a parent who didn’t plan ahead. Tell your parents these stories. Point out that you love them too much to avoid this difficult conversation. Use whatever tools you can to get them to open up and start talking. Tip #4 – Plan to continue talking. After the initial meeting,

HOUSING
Housing Options
Accommodating a variety of needs, tastes and budgets The senior living industry can seem overwhelming, but the important thing to keep in mind is that there is a housing option perfect for every person and every situation. Start here to find it. What housing options are available and how can they help me? SMART lifestyle Communities are not senior living properties. They are unique housing options that offer excellent locations, lots of amenities and none of the stigma that is too often associated with senior living communities. Life plan communities are also known as continuing care retirement communities. These communities generally feature care options ranging from independent living to longterm nursing care on one campus. Residents can transfer to higher levels of care as needed. For older adults who want to leave the burdens of home maintenance behind, independent living communities may be the ideal option. In addition to property upkeep, these communities also generally offer 24-hour security and activities to keep residents engaged. Most independent living communities are rental properties, although some do offer the option for residents to purchase units. Individuals who need assistance with the activities of daily living may want to consider an assisted living community. In addition to daily assistance, these communities also offer activity programs to fit the interests of every resident. Assisted living communities are an important option for older adults who need some level of help on a daily basis. All of these communities offer standard services including daily meals; supervision; security; and help with the activities of daily living, or ADLs.

Most communities can provide detailed brochures, helpful websites and easyto-understand financial information. If the thought of moving and downsizing is overwhelming, there are professionals available to help with every step of the process. Please see our moving and downsizing section. Finding the right community will lead to a happier and healthier life, as well as added peace of mind for family caregivers. 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
MOVING & DOWNSIZING
HOUSING
Moving and Downsizing Professional help can make moving easy Moving can be a daunting task— no matter what your age—but it can be even more overwhelming for older adults who may be leaving a home they have lived in for decades. Luckily, the enormous growth in the senior population has led to the development of a wide variety of professional moving and real estate services designed specifically to help older adults and their families. Senior Move Managers®, Senior Real Estate Specialists®, and Certified Senior Housing Professionals are just a few of the professionals who are specially trained to help seniors with all the challenges of moving and downsizing. Senior Move Managers assist older adults and their families with the emotional and physical aspects of relocation. They can also help families who wish to declutter or reorganize a home to better age in place. These professionals provide a multi-faceted approach to the move process, from space planning in the beginning to post-move support and advocacy. By addressing all aspects of the moving process, Senior Move Managers minimize the chaos and stress of moving. From initial planning to downsizing to the physical aspects of moving, Senior Move Managers create a comprehensive plan that includes selling or disposing of unwanted items and setting up the new
residence. Many Senior Move Managers are also movers. Others work closely with a reputable local moving company to complete that aspect of the job. Senior Real Estate Specialists are Realtors who are specially trained to manage the sale of a home for consumers over the age of 50. They bring targeted knowledge, senior experience and marketing savvy to each sale. These specialists have extensive knowledge about everything from reverse mortgages and the importance of universal design to the uses of pensions, 401k accounts and IRAs in real estate transactions. Finally, Certified Senior Housing Professionals (CSHPs) are real estate professionals who have completed extensive coursework on how best to assist older adults and their families in the home buying or selling process. CSHPs understand that late-in-life moves can be more complicated and require greater physical and emotional energy than traditional moves. They are trained to help older adults navigate the complexities of moving by addressing their fears, concerns, needs and goals. The first step in every move process should be to evaluate the current living situation and needs. Then consumers can contact the many local professionals to inquire about services and costs.
There are a wide variety of professional moving and real estate services designed specifically to help older adults and their families. Most professionals offer a diverse menu of services, ranging from full service moves to help with particular aspects of moving, buying or selling. Use the checklist on the following page to interview professionals and carefully document their answers. Using this information, it will be simple to choose the right professional for the job. While the moving process may never be fun, there is no longer any reason for it to be difficult. Older adults and their loved ones can now let specially trained professionals handle all the details of selling, buying and moving—from cleaning out the cluttered basement to finding the perfect new place for every piece of treasured furniture. With professional help, every move can be a smooth one. Sources: nasmm.org, seniorsrealestate.com, and seniorsrealestateinstitute.com.

SMART LIFESTYLE COMMUNITIES
HOUSING
Smart Lifestyle Communities Great locations, excellent amenities, no age limits SMART Lifestyle Communities are not senior living properties. They are unique housing options that offer excellent locations, lots of amenities and none of the stigma that is too often associated with senior living communities. Sourcebook coined the term SMART Lifestyle Communities to identify the many existing properties that offer the locations and amenities we know our readers want. The fact that these properties cater to residents of all ages and abilities makes them even more appealing to many of our readers. For decades, Sourcebook readers have said, “I’m not ready yet” when faced with retirement living decisions. This is especially true when it comes to choosing a senior living community. Often, older adults hesitate to make vital decisions because of the stigma they attach to the senior living industry. We know this stigma is not accurate, but it persists. While SMART Lifestyle Communities are easy to love, they can be hard to find. In the past, older adults were left to do their own research to find communities that were not age restricted but offered the amenities and location they wanted. Now, Sourcebook
can help readers find SMART Lifestyle Communities. Sourcebook has teamed up with the website WalkScore.com to make finding SMART Lifestyle Communities easier. In addition, we are also working with properties to help them develop services and programs for residents of all ages and abilities. The following page includes a detailed table featuring local apartment options in walkable locations. This table is a great place to start your search—as you consider a new SMART lifestyle. If you are interested in SMART Lifestyle Communities or want to

Consider a SMART Lifestyle Community Things to think about:
Location matters. Leaving a longtime home can be hard. Moving to a great neighborhood can make it easier. Consider properties that are near grocery stores, shops, restaurants, friends and activities you enjoy. Try to focus on the new conveniences and positive aspects of the neighborhood you are researching. What. How. Who. Make a list of everything that is important to you. What do you like to do? How do you like to live? What types of people do 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
you like to be around? What type of space do you prefer? What hobbies do you participate in or want to take up? The more extensive the list, the better. Lifestyle matters. It’s easy to focus on real estate and square footage, but lifestyle is more important. Focus on the people who live in your potential new neighborhood. Visit during different times of the day. Approach friendly faces and ask them how they like living there.
Staff matters. Many apartment buildings and condos have staff members who help residents make connections. They may organize regular gatherings and events on site. This is not always a “concierge;” it can be a good manager or other motivated staff member. Ask about activities and events when you tour apartments and condos. Bring a list of your hobbies and interests, and ask the staff if there might be others in the building who enjoy the same things.

Life Plan Communities Offering diverse lifestyle options Life Plan Communities are properties offering a combination of living options for older adults. These communities offer an active lifestyle for residents, as well as a wide array of amenities and services. Life Plan Communities were formerly known as Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs). Following a two-year research and review process, a task force led by LeadingAge and Mather LifeWays, identified a new name for CCRCs that would resonate with the boomer target audience. The new name better reflects the communities and their residents—individuals who are active, engaged and focused on the future. Living options available at Life Plan Communities may include independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing services. These different levels of care are all offered
on a single campus. Residents have the option to have all their current or future healthcare needs met without ever leaving campus. Life Plan Communities afford residents endless opportunities to remain active and involved. These communities generally appeal to young, healthy older adults. Amenities vary widely but often include swimming pools, fitness centers, gardening areas, and golf courses or putting greens. Additionally, residents have access to hundreds of clubs and activities—from art classes to yoga classes and from drama clubs to walking groups. Residents are also very involved in the operation and management of Life Plan Communities through resident boards or councils. Finally, Life Plan Communities are generally integrated into the larger

Understand Entrance Fees
Knowing the options when paying for life plan communities Most life plan communities require payment of a one-time fee, usually called the entrance fee, before moving to the community. The entrance fee amount often depends on the level of care at the time of entry, type of housing chosen (with larger units requiring a larger fee) and agreement type. The entrance fee allows the life plan community to offer lower monthly fees and provide for the future needs of residents. State regulations can impact the terms of the entrance fee and in some states, refunds are called rebates. Entrance fees are typically structured in one of three ways: DECLINING SCALE REFUNDS, also known as amortizing entrance fees, specify a period of time in which the entrance fee will be refundable to the resident on a declining basis. For example, if an entrance fee under this
arrangement declines at the rate of 1 percent each month, after 6 months 94 percent of the entrance fee is refundable. PARTIALLY REFUNDABLE entrance fees guarantee a specific percentage of the refund that will be returned within a certain period of time regardless of the term of residency. For example, 50 percent of the entrance fee may be refundable upon termination of the contract or to the estate upon the resident’s death. FULL REFUNDS offer just that, a full refund of the entrance fee. A fixed charge may be deducted before the refund is made, and the agreement generally states how long the refund is valid and under what conditions a refund is due. Entrance fees that offer full refunds
The entrance fee amount often depends on the level of care at the time of entry, type of housing chosen and agreement type.
are typically more expensive than those without refunds or those that are partially refundable or refundable on a declining basis.

Understanding Contracts By Kelly Hagler You want to move to a senior living community, but that’s just the first of many decisions you’ll need to make. No matter which community you move to, you’ll have to sign a contract that stipulates the services you’ll receive and what you’ll pay—now and down the road. This guide can help you navigate the different contracts you may encounter as you embark on your search for a new home. Life plan communities, also known as continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs), offer multiple levels of care all on one campus. This setting is generally attractive to seniors who like to plan ahead. Life Plan Communities are most useful for seniors who can come in at the independent living level and move through higher levels of care as needed over time.
1. Type A (Life Care Agreements). According to the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, Type A contracts include overall housing, residential services (amenities) and unlimited healthrelated services. Type A contracts provide a sense of stability, as future costs are much more predictable regardless of any changes in needed services or care. Residents pay a much larger entrance fee compared to other contract types, but the monthly fee is flat through all levels of care. 2. Type B (Modified Agreements). As with Type A, Type B contracts include housing and residential services. Unlike Type A, Type B does not cover all future health care needs but does offer discounted or waived rates for those services.
While Type B contracts have a lower entrance fee than Type A, should an increase in care become necessary, it would be the resident’s responsibility to cover costs. 3. Type C (Fee-For-Service Agreements). Like both A and B, Type C contracts cover housing, residential services and health care. “Basically, it’s pay as you go,” says Mark Herrera, vice president of skilled nursing administration and risk management at be.group. Residents pay a smaller entrance fee in the beginning. Then, if you don’t need to use higher levels of care, there is no additional cost to you beyond your monthly service fee for using amenities like transportation or activities. While Type C contracts will save you on up-front costs, the resident risks the potential for large costs down the road if there is a sudden need for care.
Before Signing a Contract 1. Consult a financial adviser. Joining a senior living community is a serious investment. Spend time with your trusted financial adviser. “Your biggest pitfall is not understanding how health care, especially Medicare, works in our country,” says Daniel S. Ogus, executive vice president and chief operating officer at be.group. “How much money do you have and how much will you need? Understand what benefits you’re getting from Medicare as well as your retirement packages.” 2. Research the organization and management. The financial stability of the community as well as the continuity of management are two essential factors to vet thoroughly. 3. Understand services covered. Asking about guaranteed services 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
Joining a life plan community is a serious investment. Consult with your trusted financial adviser. will alleviate many of those “what if ” questions: What if you get dementia? What if you become debilitated? Ask management specific questions about what’s covered in your contract beyond care services. 4. Find out how refunds work. Signing a Life Plan Community contract is a big decision—so what if you change your mind? 5. Ask about a benevolence program. Many nonprofit Life Plan
Communities offer benevolence programs if a resident exhausts his or her financial resources. 6. Make sure your voice will be heard in the future. Some communities have their own associations, and residents have the right to be represented on boards. “It’s collaborative management,” says Herrera. “Many communities are managed with a lot of advice from residents.” 7. Determine what role your family will play. “We can’t share information with children if the resident doesn’t give us permission to do so,” says Ogus. “If a resident has a condition change, we hope he or she will allow us to share with one of their adult children.” Make sure your family understands the financial commitment and how your contract works.

Life Plan Residents Healthier New Study Reveals Positive Impact of Communities A new study shows that life plan community residents are healthier— and happier—than their peers who remain in the larger community. Conducted by Mather LifeWays Institute on Aging in partnership with Northwestern University, The Age Well Study is a national longitudinal study evaluating the impact of living in a Life Plan Community on residents’ health. More than 5,100 residents from 80 Life Plan Communities across the country are participating in the study. Participant’s survey results will be compared to a demographically similar sample of older adults who live in the larger community, drawn from the Health and Retirement Study conducted by the University of Michigan. While the study will track wellness among life plan community residents for five years, the first year results were recently released, and they are extremely encouraging. Life plan community residents experienced greater emotional, social and physical wellness (among other metrics) when compared with peers who remained in the community. Emotional Wellness Life plan community residents tended to be more satisfied with life and have a more positive attitude about the future. The higher levels of emotional health among residents may be largely due to the services offered at life plan communities, according to the study. For instance, residents do not have to spend time on home and yard maintenance and can therefore focus on the activities and pursuits they enjoy. Social Wellness Life plan community residents frequently find that they have more time for socialization and an expanded network of potential friends, compared with their peers who remain in the community.

benefit from the wide variety of activities and social events offered at these communities. They also run a far lower risk of becoming isolated as their mobility decreases or their health declines. The study found that 69 percent of residents felt that moving to a life plan community had “somewhat or greatly improved” their social wellness. Physical Wellness Remaining physically active and eating a balanced diet are vital to
healthy aging. The Age Well Study found that staying active is easier for life plan community residents. This is likely due to the fact that most life plan communities have fitness centers, aerobics studios, swimming pools and group exercise options. Life Plan community residents also tend to have healthier, more balanced diets. Implementing Results The Age Well Study seeks to show which community factors are most associated with positive outcomes for residents. While preliminary results demonstrate that life plan community residents are already healthier than their peers who remain in the community, the results of this study will ultimately help communities deliver resources and programs to further improve the lives of residents—helping them remain active and engaged for decades to come.

Services for Veterans Helping those who served Individuals who have served their country in the armed forces are eligible for a wide array of benefits through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). These benefits include health care services ranging from routine screenings and check-ups to longterm care. Additional benefits are also available for aging Veterans.
their eligibility for benefits. Only by enrolling in the VA health care system can Veterans guarantee that comprehensive services will be available when and where they are needed. The VA’s enrollment system is based on priority groups. Congress determines the VA’s funding annually, which impacts the number of Veterans who can be enrolled in the health care program. The VA classifies Veterans into priority groups to ensure that limited funds are provided to higher priority Veterans first. Individuals in lower priority groups often have to pay copays for care and services.
Qualification and Enrollment Any individual who served in the active military, naval or air service and was discharged under any condition other than dishonorable may qualify for VA health care benefits. Members of the Reserves or National Guard who were called to active duty, other than for training, and completed the full duty requirement may also be eligible for health care. All Veterans are encouraged to enroll with the VA to determine
Long-Term Care Benefits In addition to preventative, health maintenance and emergency care, VA benefits may also provide for longterm care in some instances. Long-
term care benefits include assistance that is provided for an extended period of time to help Veterans with everyday tasks and/or provide support for managing an ongoing illness. Long-term care, as defined by the VA, may be provided in a person’s home, a community site, residential setting, or nursing home. Eligibility for services covered by the VA are determined based on a Veteran’s need for ongoing treatment, service availability in their area, financial eligibility, priority group status and insurance coverage. Long-term care services may also be covered though Medicare, Medicaid, insurance or private funds. More information on special longterm care benefits for Veterans is available on page 101. Veterans can also call the VA at 844-698-2311.

Building Stronger Communities
Life plan community residents seek transparency and engagement Life plan community residents want to be informed and involved in their communities. While this can make decision making more complicated for community administrators and boards, involving residents often leads to a better experience for both residents and staff. In fact, increased resident engagement is associated with improved relationships with management and greater overall satisfaction, according to a national survey from Mather LifeWays Institute on Aging. The survey concluded that to increase resident engagement and satisfaction communities should focus on greater transparency and increased application of resident input.
Key Advantages of Greater Transparency Survey respondents reported that more transparency resulted in: 91% - a greater sense of trust in management 88% - enhanced relationship between management and residents 83% - increased resident satisfaction

increasing and maintaining resident satisfaction is incorporating resident input. Residents want to be informed, and they also want to be listened to. Survey respondents suggested many different methods for successfully incorporating resident input including developing a sense of trust with residents, utilizing resident councils and committees, and providing structured processes for resident engagement. Survey respondents also recommended different approaches to addressing the disadvantages of involving residents in operational decisions. To address potential conflicts of interest, the respondents recommended establishing “guardrails,” or clear boundaries on the extent of resident input allowed. They also suggested presenting a small number of solutions for resident discussion. Despite potential drawbacks, more than 70 percent of respondents reported that resident representation on the board positively affects operations. By keeping residents informed and using their input, life plan communities can keep residents engaged—and make their communities even more engaging.

Independent Living Communities Providing security with no home maintenance Independent living communities are residential communities for active older adults who want an enjoyable lifestyle free of the worries of home maintenance. They are similar to any apartment, condominium or singlefamily development, except that they provide special services, including security. Most independent living communities are fully secured with staff members greeting and screening all visitors around the clock. As many individuals at this stage in their lives are looking to pursue new hobbies and interests, the activities and amenities available at a community are a major factor for potential residents. Most independent living communities provide a full range of activities such as shopping trips, outings to cultural events, organized gatherings and an array of clubs. Some communities also have
tennis courts, swimming pools and other amenities. Independent living communities typically offer a variety of meal plans. Residents also have the option of preparing their own meals. Most independent living communities do not offer health care services. However, some communities are affiliated with health care facilities that can provide such care when it is needed. Residents also have the option of purchasing home health care services from outside providers. Most independent living communities are rental communities, but some are condominiums or single-family communities in which residents purchase their units or homes. Costs and services vary widely. In some communities, a monthly fee covers many services, while in others a fee-for-service

Considering Independent Living Is the lifestyle right for you? The questions below will help seniors and their families determine if an Independent Living community may be the right choice for them. • Do you feel isolated in your home? • Do you find it difficult to get around your neighborhood? • Do you lack relationships with your neighbors? • Do you have difficulty driving? • Do you wish that someone else would drive you to your errands and appointments? • Do you have a hard time getting out of the house? • Do you frequently go for weeks without seeing friends? • Do you wish you had more of a social life? • Do you miss participating in favorite activities? • Do you find it difficult to run
errands alone? • Do you have a difficult time keeping up with home maintenance? • Do you find it challenging to clean your home? • Do you feel unsafe in your home or your neighborhood? • Do you find it hard to climb the stairs into or inside your home?
If you answered “yes” to most of the above questions, you may want to consider Independent Living. However, you will also want to consider your current and future health care needs before making a final decision. For instance, if you have a chronic health condition, you may want to consider an Assisted Living community, or a community that offers both Independent Living and higher levels of care on the same campus. For many seniors, Independent Living offers the perfect lifestyle— one with no home maintenance or transportation worries and with plenty of social and recreational opportunities. With a wide array of communities available locally, you are certain to find a community that offers you both the independence you desire and the security you need.

Ways to Live With Purpose Contribute and find meaning Most people want to live with purpose—to make a difference, to leave an impact. Research from the Stanford Graduate School of Education and Encore.org suggests that older adults increasingly are committed to making a difference during their retirement years. The study found that 34 million people over age 50 in the United States prioritize purpose beyond themselves on a daily basis. This means they find meaning in their lives by contributing to their communities. Increasingly, active and engaged older adults want much more than a rocking chair or a beach chair to look forward to in retirement. While some retirees have always dreamed of their eventual volunteer position, others are unsure how to give back and find purpose. How do

Ask about any volunteer work they may already be doing. 3. Use professional connections. If you belong to any professional associations, ask if they have pro bono opportunities. This is a great way to use your skills and give back. you find your purpose? 1. Use your interests. Do you have a long-time hobby or passion that you can turn into a volunteer position?

Affordable Independent Living What is available and how to qualify According to LeadingAge, formerly the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, a person can rent an apartment either at the market rate or, if his or her income level qualifies, at a lower rate. These apartments are often designed with seniors in mind. For example, there may be railings in bathrooms or power outlets higher up on the wall. Many communities also offer a 24-hour emergency call service and some may also provide different kinds of services such as meals, transportation, social activities and other programs. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funds several rental assistance programs for seniors who qualify. These programs include public housing or low-income housing

that is owned and operated by a local housing authority. To apply for public housing or Section 8 certificates or vouchers, you must go to your housing authority. Each housing authority has a system for accepting applications. Their representatives can explain their system and how to find an available apartment. HUD’s Section 202 program includes apartments where the government provides subsidies directly to owners of qualified properties developed with loans or grants from the federal government. The owners pass along the federal rental assistance subsidy to qualified residents to cover the gap between the resident payment, generally 30 percent of adjusted income, and rent costs.

Intergenerational Programs Learning and growing together A drive to create. A desire to learn. A yearning to be understood. There is more that unites young people and older adults than divides them. By focusing on the commonalities between older adults and children and encouraging more exposure and understanding, intergenerational programs can build connections and help participants learn and grow at every age. Generations United and LeadingAge teamed up with the Retirement Research Foundation to complete Intergenerational Programming in Senior Housing: From Promise to Practice, a report detailing findings from a year-long study on intergenerational programs in senior housing. The report explains that “[i]ntergenerational practice involves bringing people together in purposeful, mutually beneficial activities that

promote greater understanding and respect between generations and contribute to building more cohesive communities.” Intergenerational programs tend to focus on shared interests and common goals. The programs typically leverage
the resources that the young and the old can offer each other. Programs are designed so that both the older adults and the children or young adults stand to gain knowledge and connections. Intergenerational programs help to reduce social isolation and increase self-esteem and wellbeing. They also help individuals better understand and appreciate people who are not the same age as them. Ultimately, the programs help to foster good will and build strong communities. According to the study, many retirement communities are incorporating intergenerational activities into their programs—and they are seeing positive results for both residents and youth. Retirement community efforts tend to focus on specific intergenerational activities to engage residents and young people, such as art or technology classes or

Challenges of intergenerational programming: • Insufficient staffing dedicated to intergenerational programming; • Difficulties with engaging older adults; • Transportation for both youth and elders; and • L ack of time to plan activities with partners due to other responsibilities.
Strategies for addressing challenges:
• G et support from top administrators at both communities and schools/youth-serving agencies. • Designate a staff member or volunteer to lead the effort.

Offering needed assistance and rewarding activities Assisted living communities offer a vital option for older adults who need some assistance with daily living. While the specific amenities will vary, all assisted living communities offer basic services including meals, supervision, security and help with personal care needs. For many residents, the help available at an assisted living community can allow them to continue to live their best life. In most states, assisted living communities are registered, licensed or certified by an appropriate department or agency of the state that has a process for issuance of initial licenses and for renewing existing licenses. This process provides basic protections for consumers. Residents of assisted living communities are generally seniors who need some assistance with basic activities, frequently called the

in assisted living communities help to promote the quality of life and independence of the residents. One key offering is 24-hour supervision of the residents and the property. Resident safety and security is a priority at all assisted living communities. All communities also offer three meals a day in a group dining room. However, dining options can vary dramatically in terms of the meals available and the costs associated with meal plans. Finally, all assisted living communities offer personal care services, also known as help with the ADLs. These services include assistance with bathing, dressing and toileting. Other services and activities available at some assisted living communities include: • Medication management, or assistance with selfadministration of medicine
• Coordination of services by outside health care providers • Assistance with arranging medical, health and dental care services • Social services • Transportation services • Outdoor areas for walking or gardening • Supervision and assistance for persons with Alzheimer’s or other dementias and disabilities • Recreational and spiritual activities • Exercise and wellness programs • Laundry and linen service • Housekeeping and maintenance • Individualized services While assisted living communities do provide a high level of care, it is important to consider what is not provided at these communities before selecting one. Assisted living communities are a bridge between living at home and living in a nursing home. Assisted living communities do not typically provide the level of continuous skilled nursing care found in nursing homes and hospitals. For instance, if a prospective resident

Pay for Assisted Living Know your options when paying for care When considering potential assisted living communities, it is important to research your payment options. Although Medicare does not cover the costs of assisted living, there are a variety of payment sources available. The National Center for Assisted Living reports that “certain services are paid under Supplementary Security Income and Social Services Block Grant programs.� Individuals who meet income qualifications may also be eligible for assistance through their state Medicaid program. Some communities also offer internal financial assistance programs. State and local governments may offer subsidies for rent to those who are income-eligible. Contact the local Area Agency on Aging for more information on subsidies and other payment assistance programs. Long-term care insurance policies
800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
provide another financing option for assisted living. Most of these policies will cover the costs of assisted living. Some of the costs of assisted living are also reimbursable through individual health insurance policies. While there are other payment options available, the vast majority of assisted living/personal care costs are covered through private payments
by residents and families. Individuals should investigate all available payment sources and obtain specific information on standard rates and fees for additional services before choosing an assisted living community. Financial and insurance experts can provide more detailed information about all the available payment sources.

Small Assisted Living Homes Residential communities offer a close-knit lifestyle Assisted living homes with 15 or fewer residents are often called group homes or senior care residences. Many people seeking an assisted living environment for themselves or a family member have investigated these homes as an option along with larger assisted living communities. Most of these homes offer the same services as larger communities, except in a smaller and more intimate setting. Considering a group home when researching assisted living is an important step if your loved one would prefer a smaller, homelike environment. Some of these smaller homes specialize in care for Alzheimer’s disease or related memory impairments. Individuals and families get to know each staff member well and can enjoy participating in the
800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
preparation and serving of meals, housekeeping tasks, gardening, or other daily activities. Food is prepared in small quantities, and residents are encouraged to help. Group homes are usually nestled into neighborhoods, indistinguishable from other surrounding properties. Though regulations governing these homes differ across regions, a variety of agencies (county health departments, social services, longterm care ombudsmen) in most counties and cities provide significant monitoring of homes with four or more beds. As with any community, it is important to visit the homes to talk with staff as well as the current residents and their families. Be sure that you are given specific information about caregiver training, community amenities and costs.

Get Involved and Reap Rewards Volunteering helps residents, families and communities Most parents are involved to some degree in the parent teacher organizations at their children’s schools. The same concept applies for senior living. When your loved one moves to a retirement community, you should make it a priority to become a part of that community. Volunteering is a great way to get involved. Give freely of your time and your talents, and you and your loved will certainly reap the rewards. Much like schools, senior living communities welcome volunteers from the larger community. They are especially keen to get residents’ family members involved. Volunteers often engage in friendly visiting or help out with special events or fundraising activities. Some volunteers lead discussion groups, accompany residents for walks or share a special talent. Most communities are open to
ideas for potential volunteer assistance. Benefits for Residents According to “The Benefits of Volunteering at a Senior Living Community,” by Marissa Salvesen, volunteers are essential to the operation of senior living communities and the well being of residents. “Volunteers can offer much-needed time and assistance, such as helping a resident organize a closet, writing cards or notes, or recording a resident’s life story; all tasks that can help families with the responsibilities of caregiving, providing them peace of mind,” Salvesen explained. Family volunteers are particularly beneficial because they are familiar with the challenges that residents might face. By giving just a few hours of time, family members can help their loved one and other residents.
When your loved one moves to a retirement community, you should make it a priority to become a part of that community. Volunteering is a great way to get involved.

Benefits for Families Volunteering at your loved one’s senior living community will help the entire family feel more connected to your older relative and their home. In addition, volunteers gain valuable experience with caregiving and learn a lot about life and our country’s shared history. Finally, family members who volunteer will gain greater peace of mind, knowing that their loved one is in a positive environment. Young adults and even children should also be involved in volunteering at a loved one’s community. Volunteering will help young people stay connected with their older relatives and form relationships with other older adults. Younger volunteers will learn the importance of giving back and gain an

Special Benefits for Veterans Veterans and their families may be eligible for an array of benefits through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Many benefits are offered to lowincome, wartime Veterans specifically.
Aid and Attendance Benefit Veterans and survivors who have been found eligible for a VA pension may also be eligible for Aid and Attendance benefits. VA pensions are only awarded to Veterans and their spouses who meet strict eligibility requirements and whose yearly family income is less than the amount set by Congress for qualification. Aid and Attendance benefits are paid in addition to the monthly pension. Veterans who are not eligible for a pension cannot receive these benefits. Since this allowance increases the pension amount, some veterans who were not eligible for a basic pension because of excessive income may be eligible under these rates.
Many benefits are offered to low-income, wartime Veterans specifically. To qualify for Aid and Attendance, Veterans must require the aid of another person to perform the activities of daily living, which include eating, dressing and toileting. Veterans who are bedridden may also be eligible. Patients who are living in a nursing home or who have extremely limited eyesight may qualify as well. Housebound Benefit Veterans or their surviving spouses who are confined to their homes because of permanent disability may be eligible for an additional Housebound benefit. The Housebound benefit is
added to the monthly pension amount. Veterans must have already been determined eligible for the pension. Recipients are not eligible to receive both the Aid and Attendance benefits and the Housebound benefits at the same time. Application Process Veterans and their families may apply for benefits by submitting the required forms to the Pension Management Center that serves their state or by visiting a local benefit office. Information on centers and offices is available online at www.benefits.va.gov/benefits. Applications should include evidence showing that the applicant needs this benefit, which may include hospital records or a doctor’s report, and the required form completed by a doctor. Nursing home residents will need to complete an additional form about their living situation. For more information, visit www. benefits.va.gov.

Options for Low-Income Seniors According to Housing America’s Older Adults 2019, a report of the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University, the share of U.S. households age 65 and over will grow from 26 percent in 2018 to 34 percent in 2038. Households that are age 80 and over are growing even faster. For a quarter of Social Security recipients, the government benefit makes up 90 percent of their incomes, the report also noted. This leaves many older adults living at or below poverty levels and in need of rental subsidies or other housing assistance.

10 Tips for Choosing an Assisted Living Community 1. Make an accurate and honest assessment of your physical, financial, mental and lifestyle needs. 2. Visit as many facilities as you can to get a sense of the choices in your area. 3. Narrow down your selection to the top two or three choices and return to those facilities and ask lots of questions. 4. Ask to review a copy of the Resident Agreement (facility contract). 5. Ask to review the licensing or certification inspection report. 6. Call the Long Term Care Ombudsman program and ask if there are complaints about the facilities you are interested in. Contact the ElderCare Locator at 1-800-677-1116 or www.eldercare.gov to find your local ombudsman who serves as an advocate for assisted living/personal care and nursing home residents. 7. Make an unannounced visit to the facilities you are interested in. Talk with the residents and their family members about the facility. 8. Ask what conditions or circumstances may result in the need to relocate to another facility. 9. Ask what the baseline fee is and what services are included in that fee. Ask what additional charges apply for services/products. 10. Choose the facility that comes closest to your needs. From The Consumer Consortium on Assisted Living (CCAL), a national consumer education and advocacy organization. Visit www.ccal.org for more information.

Nursing & Rehabilitation
Specialized care for individuals who need daily assistance At a nursing care center, care is administered by professionals under the direction of a physician. Many facilities also offer sub-acute, respite, rehabilitation and other short-term care. Rehabilitation services can be especially helpful for individuals who are recovering from surgery, an illness or any other life-changing event. Who is Nursing Care for? These communities serve as permanent residences for individuals who are too sick or frail to live at home, or as temporary facilities during a recovery period. Some residents enter a nursing care center for a short-term stay after a surgery or illness, while others enter on a more permanent basis. Who Pays for Nursing Care? Medicare, Medicaid, private
insurance and personal assets are all used under various circumstances to pay for services in a nursing care facility. If a facility is not certified by Medicare and Medicaid, the care will have to be paid for entirely with personal funds. In general, Medicare pays for skilled nursing care following hospitalization for the same illness or condition at 100 percent of the cost for days 1 – 20. Some long-term care insurance pays for nursing care centers; insurance payments are usually a fixed amount for a specified number of qualified days. The basic daily rate is the standard charge the nursing care center bills to all residents, which covers the fundamental services every resident receives, including rent for the room, housekeeping, meals and general nursing care. It is important to understand all the services and

What to Look for in Nursing Care Before choosing a community, contact the Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program of your Area Agency on Aging. Ombudsman programs promote the highest quality of life and care for residents of nursing facilities and can help families and staff with inquiries and complaints.

Paying for Nursing Home Care Nursing home care can be expensive. There are many ways you can pay for nursing home care. For example, you can use your own money, you may be able to get help from your state, or you may use long-term care insurance. Most people who enter nursing homes begin by paying for their care out-of-pocket. As you use your resources (like bank accounts and stocks) over a period of time, you may eventually become eligible for Medicaid. Will Medicare pay for nursing home care? Medicare generally doesn’t cover long-term care stays in a nursing home. Even if it doesn’t cover nursing home care, you’ll need health coverage for hospital care, doctor services, and medical supplies while you’re in the nursing home. Part A covers skilled care provided in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) under certain conditions for a limited time. Skilled care is nursing and therapy care that can only be safely and effectively performed by, or under the supervision of, professionals or technical personnel. It’s health care given when you need skilled nursing or skilled therapies to treat, manage, and observe your condition, and evaluate your care. Medicare covers certain daily skilled care services on a short-term basis (up to 100 days in a benefit period). For more information on Medicare’s coverage of SNF care, visit Medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). Personal resources You can use your personal money and savings to pay for nursing home care. Some insurance companies let you use your life insurance policy to pay for long-term care. Ask your insurance agent how this works. Important: Be sure to get help before using either of these options. There are important issues you need to understand. Help from your state (Medicaid) Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that helps with medical costs

Some insurance companies let you use your life insurance policy to pay for longterm care. for some people with limited income and resources. Most health care costs are covered if you qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. Most, but not all, nursing homes accept Medicaid payment. Even if you pay out-of-pocket or with long-term care insurance, you eventually may “spend down” your assets while you’re at the nursing home, so it’s good to know whether the home will accept Medicaid. Check with the nursing home to see if they accept people with Medicaid. Medicaid programs vary state to state. Most often, eligibility is based on your
income and personal resources. Many states have higher Medicaid income limits for nursing home residents. You may be eligible for Medicaid coverage in a nursing home even if you haven’t qualified for other Medicaid services in the past. Sometimes you won’t be eligible for Medicaid until you’ve spent some of your personal resources on health care. Generally, even if you’re eligible for Medicaid, all of your income (except for a monthly personal needs allowance and amounts considered necessary to support your spouse and family living in the community) will go to pay your nursing home expenses and Medicaid will cover the rest. To get more information on Medicaid eligibility in your state, call your local Medicaid office. Information excerpted from a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services publication.

Ombudsman Programs Advocates can help residents and families Everyone needs an advocate. Someone who can help them resolve issues, navigate challenges and make decisions. For older adults who are living in, or considering moving to, a nursing facility or assisted living community, long-term care ombudsman can serve as essential advocates. What is a long-term care ombudsman? A long-term care ombudsman is an advocate who strives to improve the quality of life for individuals receiving long-term care services. Ombudsmen resolve complaints against long-term care providers through counseling, negotiations and investigations. They can also provide vital information about long-term care providers to help consumers make informed decisions. Using trained volunteers, ombudsman programs make regular visits to long-term care facilities to interact with residents and staff. Finally, ombudsmen strive to educate the community about long-term care issues, train long-term care staff and consult with long-term care providers. The ombudsman program is federally mandated and located in every state. Administered by the Administration on Aging, the ombudsman program has 7,734 volunteers certified to handle complaints and 1,300 paid staff. In 2017, ombudsman programs investigated more than 201,460 complaints on behalf of 125,642 individuals and provided information on long-term care to another 402,030 people. The ultimate goal of the ombudsman program is to provide residents of long-term care facilities with an advocate who will work to ensure they receive the highest level of care possible. Volunteer ombudsman are a voice for residents and their families. How can an ombudsman help me?

Ombudsmen stand with residents of long-term care communities, ensuring that their voices are heard and their complaints and concerns are addressed. For families who are searching for a nursing facility or an assisted living facility, Ombudsmen can provide vital information about facilities, services, complaint histories, inspection reports, and features to look for while searching for a community. As a consumer of long-term care, Ombudsmen can help you voice any

concerns you may have about current providers. They can also take you through the steps necessary to resolve any complaints. This generally starts with negotiation, during which the two parties sit down to discuss the concern and the Ombudsman serves as a facilitator. In many cases, both parties are able to agree to a solution. If negotiation is not successful or appropriate, Ombudsmen can launch a formal complaint investigation aimed at achieving a resolution to support the resident. Ombudsmen will accept anonymous complaints. In cases where names will be used, residents and/or their families must sign a waiver of the right to confidentiality. How should I find an ombudsman?

Using Music Therapy Songs soothe and support Music brings back memories and transports listeners. Whether it is show tunes or pop tunes, music helps people connect. For older adults who are struggling with long-term illnesses, music can provide comfort and foster connections. What is Music Therapy? Music therapy is the use of music to connect with patients through one-on-one and group activities. Music therapy can be used to treat anxiety, depression, memory loss, chronic pain and a host of other conditions. Used in coordination with medication and other therapies, music therapy can help patients heal or better cope with chronic conditions. Music therapy interventions vary widely and can include passive listening on electronic devices, active participation in sing-a-longs or chorus
groups, and attending performances. All music therapy programs are designed to help patients achieve their best possible quality of life. How is Music Therapy Used? Research has long linked music to areas of the brain that control memory, emotions and movement. In nursing and rehabilitation centers and assisted living communities, music therapy is
used to help residents remain engaged, ease agitation and depression, encourage movement and improve memory. Individuals with Parkinson’s disease or other movement disorders can realize improvements in coordination and range of motion with consistent participation in music therapy. For residents with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, music can help to improve communication and enhance memory. It is not uncommon for residents who are otherwise non-verbal to sing every word of a favorite song. Music is easily accessible, and it can help improve a wide variety of conditions. The love of music transcends time, age, and physical and mental limitations. That is why senior living communities are increasingly turning up the tunes and investing in music therapy.
Using Pet Therapy Animals breed connections A beloved pet can bring comfort and joy. This can be particularly true for older adults. Increasingly, nursing and rehabilitation centers and assisted living communities are welcoming visiting pets or hosting community pets as a way to keep residents active and engaged. What is Pet Therapy? Pet therapy is the use of animals— including dogs, cats and other domestic pets—to help people recover from or cope with health issues. For older adults, pets can help boost activity levels. For residents with severe mental or physical limitations, pet therapy is often one of the only interventions that fosters connections. People who are otherwise non-responsive may
126
find solace in holding or stroking a gentle pet. How is Pet Therapy Used? Many nursing and rehabilitation centers and assisted living communities have house pets. Others allow specially trained volunteers or family members of residents to bring in their pets to interact with the residents.
Pet therapy is used primarily to boost activity levels, reduce stress, and alleviate loneliness or depression. Pet therapy may also help speed recovery or slow the aging process. Some communities divvy up the responsibilities of taking care of the pets amongst the residents. Residents know when it is their turn to feed, walk or otherwise care for the animal. This responsibility can help give residents a sense of purpose and provide motivation for remaining active. When the right pet finds the right people, the results can be impressive. For long-term care residents, pets may be a welcome distraction from a difficult illness, a bright spot in a challenging day, or a reason to push harder and strive for recovery. For such a simple intervention, pet therapy can yield impressive results. 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com

MEMORY CARE
SPECIALIZED CARE
Options for Memory Care Considering a residential facility For older adults with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia, moving to a residential memory care facility may be the best option. These communities can offer varying levels of care, depending on the needs of the patient. They also offer valuable peace of mind for family members and caregivers, who may no longer be able to provide care at home. Most retirement living communities offer options for individuals with memory care needs. Before selecting a community, potential residents and their families should carefully evaluate their current and future care needs. Consumers should also familiarize themselves with the wide variety of community options available. More information about housing options is available
throughout the Sourcebook. Life Plan Communities These communities provide a full range of care options from independent living to nursing care. Residents with memory care needs would generally move in while they are still healthy and progress to higher levels of care. Assisted Living Assisted living facilities offer additional support for residents, including assistance with the activities of daily living. Many assisted living facilities offer services specifically designed for people with dementia. Skilled Nursing Facilities These communities offer roundthe-clock care for patients. Some
nursing homes have specialized units and specially trained staff to accommodate the needs of patients with dementia. Special Care Units Special Care Units, or SCUs, are also called memory care units and are designed to meet the specific needs of individuals with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. These units are often located within other residential care options. Some of these units are locked or secured for the safety of residents. SCUs generally offer other specialized services, including highly trained staff and activities designed for individuals with varying stages of dementia.

MEMORY CARE
Know the Symptoms of Alzheimer’s The Alzheimer’s Association provides the common signs Memory loss that disrupts daily life is not a typical part of aging. It may be a symptom of Alzheimer’s, a fatal brain disease that causes a slow decline in memory, thinking and reasoning skills. Every individual may experience one or more of these signs in different degrees. If you notice any of them, it is recommended you see a doctor. 1. Memory loss that disrupts daily life One of the most common signs of Alzheimer’s is memory loss, especially forgetting recently learned information. Others include forgetting important dates or events; asking for the same information over and over; and relying on memory aides (e.g., reminder notes or electronic devices) or family members for things they used to handle on their own. What’s typical? Sometimes
136
forgetting names or appointments, but remembering them later. 2. Challenges in planning or solving problems Some people may experience changes in their ability to develop and follow a plan or work with numbers. They may have trouble following a familiar recipe or keeping track of monthly bills. They may have difficulty concentrating and take much longer to do things than they did before. What’s typical? Making occasional errors when balancing a checkbook. 3. Difficulty completing familiar tasks at home, at work or at leisure People with Alzheimer’s often find it hard to complete daily tasks. Sometimes, people may have trouble driving to a familiar location, managing a budget at
work or remembering the rules of a favorite game. What’s typical? Occasionally needing help to use the settings on a microwave or to record a television show. 4. Confusion with time or place People with Alzheimer’s can lose track of dates, seasons and the passage of time. They may have trouble understanding something if it is not happening immediately. Sometimes they may forget where they are or how they got there. What’s typical? Getting confused about the day of the week but figuring it out later. Information from the Alzheimer’s Association website. Visit www.alz.org or call 1.800.272.3900 for information, referrals and support.

HOSPICE CARE
SPECIALIZED CARE
Hospice Care
Improving the quality of life remaining A patient and family may turn to hospice care when the goals of patient care have switched from curing to comforting. Hospice involves a special system of supportive services, including pain and symptom management, social services, and emotional and spiritual support. Any individual of any age with a diagnosis of a terminal disease may turn to hospice. How Do I Receive Hospice Care? Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance generally require a prognosis of six months or less for services to be covered. In addition to traditional medical hospices, there is a non-medical hospice program in Montgomery County that offers support for patients with a year’s prognosis or less who may choose to continue their curative treatments. Hospice is unique in that care and support are provided to the entire family, not just the patient. A team of skilled professionals and volunteers work to serve the special needs of everyone involved. Choice is at the center of the hospice approach — a person faced with a life-limiting illness is encouraged to remain in control of his or her life. As care is usually provided in one’s home, many hospice patients live out their lives in the comfort of familiar daily routines, surrounded by their treasured possessions along with family and friends. However, hospice services may also be provided in long-term care facilities or in-patient hospice residential settings. What Services are Provided? Hospice team members focus primarily on managing the patient’s pain and symptoms with medication, medical supplies and equipment. Other services, such as speech and physical therapy, are available if necessary. If managing the symptoms within 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
Choice is at the center of the hospice approach — a person faced with a life-limiting illness is encouraged to remain in control of his or her life. the home becomes impossible, hospice providers can offer shortterm inpatient care. While family members learn how to properly care for the patient, information and support is also available to help everyone deal with the emotional, psychosocial and spiritual aspects of dying. Surviving loved ones will receive bereavement care and counseling from the hospice professionals. How Do I Pay for Hospice? Most services are fully or partially covered by Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers or prepaid health plans. The non-medical services available in Montgomery County are free and delivered by a staff of trained volunteers. For traditional hospice services, financial assistance is available. The National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization notes that, “Eighty percent of people who use hospice
care are over the age of 65, and are thus entitled to the services offered by the Medicare Hospice Benefit. This benefit covers virtually all aspects of hospice care with little out-of-pocket expense.” To receive the Medicare Hospice Benefit, patients must be eligible for Medicare Part A, have a terminal disease or condition with a less than six months prognosis, and sign a document certifying that they are choosing hospice care instead of routine Medicare benefits. Patients may only receive covered benefits from a Medicare-approved hospice program. In addition to Medicare’s coverage, hospice services are also generally covered by Medicaid or private insurers. Adapted from Caring Connection’s and the American Cancer Society’s websites. For more information, see www.caringinfo.org or the information on hospice care at www.cancer.org.

HOSPICE CARE
Myths and Facts About Hospice Myth: H ospice is where you go when there is “nothing else to be done.” Reality: Hospice is the “something more” that can be done for the patient and the family when the illness cannot be cured. It is a concept based on comfort-oriented care. Referral into hospice is a movement into another mode of therapy, which may be more appropriate for terminal care. Myth: F amilies should be isolated from a dying patient. Reality: Hospice staff believe that when family members (including children) experience the dying process in a caring environment, it helps counteract the fear of their own mortality and the mortality of their loved one.
Myth: Hospice care is more expensive. Reality: Studies have shown hospice care to be no more costly. Frequently, it is less expensive than conventional care during the last six months of life. Less high-cost technology is used and family, friends and volunteers provide 90 percent of the day-to-day patient care at home. Additionally, patients eligible for Medicare or Medicaid will pay few out-of-pocket expenses related to their hospice care. Most private insurers also cover some or most hospice-related expenses. Myth: Y ou can’t keep your own doctor if you enter hospice. Reality: Hospice physicians work closely with your doctor of choice to determine a plan of care.

Choosing a Hospice
Use this checklist to review options: DETERMINING NEED Does the patient want hospice care? Did they express their wishes before they got sick? What does the patient’s healthcare provider think about moving them to hospice care? Is the patient still responding to treatments? Have treatments become physically or emotionally difficult or intolerable? Does the patient have end-stage Alzheimer’s disease? ELIGIBILITY Does the physician agree that hospice care would be beneficial? Can a medical provider recommend a hospice provider? ASSESSMENT Call potential providers and request assessments. Are assessments provided at no cost and with no obligations? Can a clinician come to the home or to the hospital or facility to evaluate the patient? CHOOSE A PROVIDER How quickly can care begin? How quickly will a care plan be developed? When can the family expect pain or symptoms to be managed? What is the typical response time after normal business hours, or on weekends and holidays? What is the typical response time if medications are no longer keeping pain under control?
800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
How does the hospice handle patients whose care needs can no longer be met at home? What happens if the patient needs inpatient care? Are there any services, medications or equipment that the hospice DOES NOT provide? What kind of out of pocket expenses should the family anticipate? How often will a hospice team member visit the patient? How long will visits last? What will happen during these visits? When the hospice orders medication, where can it be picked up, or is it delivered by the hospice? Do members of the team providing care have additional training and certifications for their hospice and palliative care skills? What is expected of the family caregiver? Will the hospice provide training to family caregivers? Can the hospice provide respite care to give family caregivers a break? How is respite care arranged? Is volunteer assistance available through the hospice? What help do hospice volunteers provide? How do families receive volunteer help? What kind of bereavement support is offered by the hospice? If the patient or family is unhappy with any aspect of care the hospice is providing, who can they contact at the hospice? Source: Information adapted from www.hospicefoundation.org

AGING IN PLACE
Aging in Place Options Choices for remaining at home Never want to move? Want to receive the care and support you need in the home you love? Whether you are committed to remaining in your long-time family home or an amenity rich apartment community, there are plenty of options for aging in place. Start here to find them all. What aging in place options are available and how can they help me? Homesharing is the practice of older adults renting extra rooms in their homes to supplement their income. Homeowners benefit from the additional social contact that a roommate can provide. They may also receive assistance with chores in exchange for a reduced rent. Home care is a large and diverse field. The basic home care options include companion care, home healthcare and skilled nursing care. Companion caregivers serve as surrogate family members and may offer assistance including meal preparation, medication reminders, light housekeeping, transportation and help with exercising. Home healthcare providers help older adults perform the activities of daily living they are no longer able to complete alone. These may include bathing, dressing, transferring, eating and toileting. Home healthcare providers may also offer some companion care services. Skilled nursing services are prescribed by a physician and delivered by a registered nurse. This type of care may include administering injections or medications, wound care, catheter care, respiratory therapy, or other medical tasks. Adult day care centers offer a variety of programs and amenities for older adults who need care and social opportunities during the day. Many providers offer assistance with the activities of daily living including eating, walking, toileting and medication management. They also generally offer a diverse schedule of activities including exercise programs.

Aging in place options include homesharing, home care, adult day care and villages. Home care providers are available to help older adults who want to age in place. Care options range from occasional companion care to full-time skilled nursing care.

HOMESHARING
Homesharing
Homeowners and renters can share, save and socialize “Sharing is caring.” The phrase that is common in preschools also applies to many other situations. With the sharing economy now in full swing, sharing is not just caring; it is decidedly trendy. It is no surprise that the sharing economy is now making its way into the senior living industry. A system in which people share goods and services in exchange for money, the most obvious example of a sharing economy is Uber, which allows riders to pay drivers for transportation. Sharing economies often utilize online platforms to make the exchanges seamless and to eliminate the need for cash. For seniors, the sharing economy now presents the opportunity to share their homes and earn extra money (or find affordable rent), enjoy compatible roommates and avoid isolation. Enter homesharing.
Using existing connections or online platforms to find a housemate, homeowners can share the unused rooms in their homes—gaining income and companionship.
What is Homesharing? Homesharing is when older adults rent extra rooms in their homes to compatible housemates to supplement their income. Renters get

This arrangement can make living independently easier for older adults—and allow them to remain in their homes longer. Homesharers also benefit from the added security that comes with having another adult in the home. If there is an accident or an emergency, there is someone available to help immediately. How Do Homeowners Find Roommates? Older adults may find roommates using existing connections. Anyone interested in homesharing should first talk to friends and family members.

These platforms are specially designed to match homeowners with potential renters and are safe and easy to use. One platform that particularly caters to seniors, baby boomers, empty nesters and other older adults is Silvernest. Silvernest uses a proprietary matching tool to help older adults find the perfect roommate. The platform also features resources including ID verification,
background screening, electronic rent payments and lease generation. How Do Renters Find Homes to Share? Potential renters should also inform their friends and family that they are looking for a room to rent—and that they are open to living with an older adult. Renters can also use online sharing platforms to find available rooms in their area by searching based on their location and budget. While Silvernest caters to homeowners who are 50+, the platform can help anyone find a rental property. Silvernest renters range in age from 20s to 80s. The platform also includes secure messaging, so potential housemates can learn more about one another and determine the homesharing arrangement that works best for them.

Is Homesharing Right for You? Use this checklist to decide: HOMEOWNERS Do you need extra money? Do you have extra space in your home that is currently unused? This could be a separate apartment, a complete floor, a bedroom and bathroom, or just a bedroom. Are you comfortable sharing your common areas? Do you feel isolated in your home? Would you like additional companionship? Do you need help with basic household chores? Would you be willing to offer reduced rent to someone who could perform these tasks for you? Do you feel scared or uncomfortable being alone in your home? Do you want to expand your social circle?

Safe and Accessible Homes
Creating home environments that promote aging in place According to 2018 Home and Community Preferences: A National Survey of Adults Age 18-Plus by AARP, 3 out of 4 adults age 50 and older want to stay in their homes and communities as they age. However, older adults are painfully aware of the challenges that come with aging in place. In the same study, only 59 percent of respondents anticipated being able to stay in their communities. Unfortunately, more than half of Americans (52%) age 65 plus will need long-term care in their lifetimes, according to investment research firm Morningstar. Otherwise healthy older adults often need help recovering after a major illness or a fall. In fact, falls are the most frequent cause of injury for older adults and often lead to increased care needs. A 2015 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association showed that about a third of older adults fall each year—and the number of falls is steadily rising. If older adults plan to successfully age in place, they must plan ahead to improve the safety and function of their home environment. Fortunately, there are a wealth of providers dedicated to helping older adults age in place. From home modification companies to emergency response services, there are professionals who can help older adults live in their homes for a lifetime. Use this section to plan ahead.
Certified Aging-in-Place Specialists Certified Aging-in-Place Specialists (CAPS) are professionals who are knowledgeable about home modifications to facilitate aging in place. They are familiar with common remodeling projects and can offer solutions to the common barriers to remaining at home. To find a Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist in your area, call the National Association of Home Builders at 800-368-5242 or use the “Find a Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist” tool at nahb.org.
Occupational Therapists
As licensed health professionals, Occupational Therapists (OTs) help older adults find the supports they need to maximize health, safety and independence in the home environment. After performing an in-home assessment and identifying daily routines, OTs can make recommendations that will enhance both the function and safety of the home. To learn more about occupational therapists, visit AOTA.org. Continued on page 150

Smart home technology can make aging in place safe and easy. Digital voice assistants (like Amazon Echo) can offer simple improvements to everyday environments. For older adults with vision impairment, the speakers allow users to access audio books, so they can easily “read.” The devices can also play a wide variety of music and games, offering a remedy for both loneliness and boredom. Finally, speakers can be programmed to control thermostats, lights and security features. Video doorbells and in-home cameras allow adult children and other caregivers at a distance to monitor the movements and safety of older adults who are living alone. Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS) keep older adults connected to emergency call centers that are monitored 24 hours a day by using a small transmitter that can be worn around the neck or on a belt. Consumers can purchase, rent or lease a PERS. When purchasing a PERS, consumers will typically pay a one-time installation fee, as well as a monthly monitoring charge. For rentals, fees generally include use of the equipment and the monitoring service.

Mobile Medical Providers House calls are making a comeback. Increasingly, medical professionals are making house calls. Through mobile medical services and private practices, a growing number of physicians and nurse practitioners are coming to patients’ homes and apartments to deliver routine and preventative medical care.
These innovative medical professionals fill a long-standing gap in our medical system. They allow individuals who are confined to their homes either because of old age or illness to continue to receive routine care, so they can achieve their highest possible level of function and independence. In-home providers
are also an important option for busy professionals and others who are unable to schedule appointments during regular office hours. Given the improvements in medical technology, in-home medical professionals can bring portable equipment into private homes and access essential information remotely.
Bringing Your Primary Care Doctor to Your Door Many older adults struggle to get to the doctor’s office. Our team of doctors, nurse practitioners and social workers make HOUSE CALLS to seniors age 65 and older at no additional cost. We offer: • House Calls by doctors and nurse practitioners in your home, with 24/7 phone access. • In-home diagnostic tests and treatments. • Coordination of all medical and social services. • Delivery of medications and equipment. • Coordination of Hospital and Specialist Care.

An advancing industry, home healthcare is essentially skilled nursing care and certain other forms of healthcare that you get in your home for the treatment of an illness or injury. It is an important option to consider regardless of one’s age or health conditions.

would typically complete. Assistance from companion caregivers can include meal preparation, medication reminders, laundry, light housekeeping, shopping, transportation and assistance with exercising. The overall goals of companion care providers are to ensure that the home environment remains safe and that the individual has a companion to spend time with when family is not available. HOME HEALTHCARE is for those who are no longer able to perform all of the functions of daily living by themselves but who do not require skilled medical services. A home health aide can help with activities of daily living (ADLs), which include bathing, dressing, transferring, eating and toileting.

Planning for Care at Home by Phyllis Mensh Brostoff
CISW, CMC, Aging Life Care Association™ Member, Fellow of the Leadership Academy
If you took a poll of older adults and asked each person if they wanted to remain in their own home until the end of their life, most people would say, “of course.” That is a wonderful goal, which often takes a lot of sound planning to be successful. Anything can get in the way—accidents, illness, lack of energy, declining physical abilities—of achieving your desired independence. It is hard to give up even a little autonomy, but asking for assistance can help keep you where you want to be—in your own home. What if You Become Homebound? If you are recovering from an acute illness, you may be eligible for home health services that are paid for by the Medicare program. An Aging Life Care Manager™ can help you access
licensed home health services by facilitating a conversation with your physician about your need for skilled nursing services, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and/or speech therapy in your home. This is an important conversation to have with your doctor and discharge planner if you are in the hospital or a nursing facility and need to decide on and plan for services in your home once you are discharged. However, Medicare will only pay for these services if you are “homebound.” Homebound is defined as only leaving your home for “medical treatment or short, infrequent absences for non-medical reasons, like attending religious services.” You may also receive help from a home health aide under the supervision of a professional nurse or therapist. A
physical or occupational therapist can evaluate your home and recommend equipment (such as grab bars in the bathroom) that will improve your safety. Accessing services These services must be obtained from a state licensed home health agency certified to provide Medicare-reimbursed services. They may be freestanding agencies, or they may be part of a large, hospitalbased organization. Licensed home health services are usually timelimited, ending when you have met the goals of treatment and the need for the skilled care has ended. If you have enrolled in a Medicare Advantage program, you may also have access to additional services such as home visits after a hospitalization. Continued on page 158

Other Home Care Services Many other care services are provided in the home but are not licensed or paid for by Medicare. An Aging Life Care Manager can help you understand what they can offer, access reputable services, and monitor them on an on-going basis. Non-Medical Aides, Companions and Homemakers There are many types of paid care giving services available—often called non-medical aides, companions and homemakers—who many people hire privately. If you do, you or your family should check at least two work-related references, develop a specific set of tasks and expectations for the caregiver, arrange to pay all appropriate taxes, and have the required insurance coverage. Caregiver services can also be arranged through an agency. While
this may cost more per hour than hiring an aide yourself, hiring an agency assures you of coverage when the aide is sick, on vacation or quits. The agency also carries liability insurance and is responsible for all employment taxes and employee bonding. An Aging Life Care Manager can help you find a reputable agency and get important questions
answered, such as: do they check police and driver license records; do they provide supervision; how do they handle cancellations; and how long have they been in business?

Medicare and Home Care Know the coverage options When it comes to understanding Medicare coverage, many individuals can find themselves confused by a complex web of information. This especially applies to those who want to know if they are eligible for Medicare coverage when entering a nursing home or receiving home health care. Below is some helpful information on whether you can use your home health care benefits if you have Medicare and what services and products it will cover. First, you can use your home health care benefits if all of the following applies to your situation. Your doctor must prescribe that you need medical care at home and create a care plan. The care you need has to be intermittent and in the form of skilled nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy or speech therapy. The home health agency must be Medicare-certified and you must be homebound, or unable to leave the home unassisted. 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
The home health agency must be Medicarecertified and you must be homebound, or unable to leave the home unassisted, to use your Medicare home health benefits. Once you have established those requirements, it is important to understand what Medicare will actually cover, which includes the following: • Home health aide services on a part-time or intermittent basis, as long as there is a skilled need • Medical social services • Certain medical supplies
• Durable medical equipment (wheelchair, walker, bedside commode, etc.) Given the services and products that Medicare does cover, it is also valuable to take note of what is not covered. Care that is required 24 hours a day will not be covered. Other services not covered include personal care provided by home health aides such as bathing and dressing, along with homemaker services like cleaning and laundry. Also not included are homedelivered meals. If you require care that goes beyond intermittent visits for a limited amount of time, or if your needs are not covered by Medicare, an important option to consider is private duty home care. For more information on Medicare coverage, visit medicare.gov. Information Provided by Family & Nursing Care and adapted from medicare.gov.

Providing socialization and care Adult Day Centers are an important option for family caregivers, as they offer socialization, activities, and necessary supervision to those who are socially isolated or need care and assistance. Caregivers can feel confident that their loved one is safe and well cared for while they are at work or performing other necessary tasks. Centers offer a variety of programs and amenities, including exercise programs and a diverse schedule of engaging activities. Assistance with the activities of daily living, including eating, walking, toileting and medication management may also be available. Additionally, many centers offer physical, speech and occupational therapies to their participants. All licensed centers provide nutritious meals and snacks on a daily basis. Choosing a Provider After locating nearby providers,
call them to request flyers, brochures, calendars and application information. While reviewing this information, pay careful attention to how many years the provider has been in business and their licensures and certifications. Be sure to understand the staff credentials, staff to participant ratio, and the medical conditions the facility and its staff are equipped to handle. Inquire about the availability of transportation to and from the program if it is necessary. The types of activities offered and the menu variety should be considered as well. Specific costs and any financial assistance that is available should be clearly outlined in the information packet. Reviewing printed materials and asking questions over the phone can help narrow the choices, but the final decision of which Adult Day Center to use must be made in person. During the visit, staff members should be

What types of activities are provided? Do participants help plan activities? Are meals or snacks provided? Can special dietary needs be accommodated? Do participants have individual service plans?

VILLAGES
What is a Village? A Village is a community or group of people who want to live in their own homes as they get older, with all the resources needed to live active lives. A village provides many of the benefits of a traditional retirement community—all in the comfort of the family home. Village residents maintain their independence, their friendships and multigenerational community connections. Because they work together to ensure each other’s continued health and safety, residents are able to live long, full lives in their homes. What Does the Village Offer? Villages offer volunteer help to their members. Volunteers provide transportation to medical appointments, grocery delivery, and other specialized services as needed. Volunteers may also help with simple tasks at home. Examples include small repairs, changing light bulbs, providing cooked meals to a sick neighbor, or offering assistance with laundry for someone who was just released from the hospital. Villages focus on building social connections. There are organized events, large and small, that are of interest to the community. Villages may organize book clubs, walking
VILLAGES
groups, knitting clubs, guest speaker events, group outings and so much more. Many Village events take place at a neighbor’s home; others take place at a local church, synagogue, mosque, library or community recreation center. Villages often partner with other local organizations to develop programs together. Who Creates the Village? Villages are created by PHONE
residents of the community. The residents are people who have a vision for an improved quality of life for all. Every new Village starts with a vision and with a dedicated core of individuals ready and willing to make that vision a reality.

In fact, many professionals in the field of aging see a problem and set out to become the solution.

Networking for Professionals Regional groups to help you connect and learn Professionals who work with seniors and their loved ones need to be up-todate on local resources and services. They also need a solid grasp of the key issues and trends in the marketplace. Senior-serving professionals can gain the knowledge they need by joining and participating in one of the regional networking and education groups in the Washington, DC metropolitan region. The DC region has groups for all types of professionals. These groups have a wide variety of organizational structures, ranging from informal
groups to non-profits that require members to pay dues and offer a variety of membership benefits in return. Most groups meet periodically and will allow prospective members to attend a few meetings before joining. Regional networking and education groups are distinct from trade associations. They tend to attract a broader range of local professionals than trade associations. Members also tend to focus their businesses locally, serving seniors in specific regions.
NETWORKING ORGANIZATIONS
These distinctions make these groups an excellent way to fully understand what services are available in each region—allowing professionals to both provide and receive referrals. Education and networking opportunities directly address the challenges that senior-serving professionals are encountering in the field every day. Regional groups were created by local professionals for local professionals. Explore your options today and start connecting.
