From: Steve Gurney [mail to:steve@proaging.com]   Subject: We’ve Got Email, lots of it! Date: October 2012 To: SourceBook Readers ________________________________________________________________________________ As I approach 23 years of publishing SourceBook, it’s fun to reflect on all of the changes I have witnessed in the senior living sector during my career. In the last two decades, the industry has truly transformed – expanding and changing to meet the needs of our growing senior population at an astonishing rate. During my career, I have seen the development and tremendous growth of the assisted living category and the rapid expansion of options to help people “age in place.” I have witnessed the growth of Professional Geriatric Care Managers and Elder Law Attorneys, and the birth of Senior Move Managers, Daily Money Managers, Senior Real Estate Specialists and other professional designations designed to serve our readers. Today, senior living providers are exploring the use of gadgets, apps and even robots to better serve their clients and enhance services. And at SourceBook, we are constantly working to make our comprehensive website more user friendly and easier to search. In fact, we are using some of the principles of web design in our ongoing efforts to make our printed magazine more accessible.

In the early days, our letter carrier would deliver a handful of mail from our readers each week. Now, it seems that our traditional mailbox only delivers junk mail, while my email box is jam-packed with letters from readers and senior-serving professionals. This is what led us to reformat the publisher’s note in this issue to look more like the “letters” that most of us are writing these days. You should begin to see some other subtle changes in our design that will make navigating our publication and website together easier and more familiar. I look forward to continued feedback from our readers to help us evolve and improve. Don’t hesitate to stick a stamp on an envelope and send me a letter, or you can shoot me an email – all my contact information is below on my signature line! J Talk to you soon, Steve

Always active in their community, the Stein’s social schedule is now busier than ever before, filled with activities ranging from physical fitness to volunteer efforts.

As for their lifestyle today, the Steins are enjoying a mix of new and old interests with lots of new friends. Barbara, a self-proclaimed “professional volunteer,” is still pursuing her passion for giving back. She has joined Waverly’s marketing, special events and movie committees. She also participates in the daily physical activity options, ranging from aquatics to line dancing. Gil continues to work part-time as an adjunct professor of sports law at Villanova University Law School. He is also using his newfound free time to pursue volunteer activities. In fact, he recently became the editor of the Waverly Heights monthly magazine, Waverly Window. He also participates in Waverly’s putting competition and is a member of the traveling putting team. “The thing I like best about living here is that you can continue to live the life you were living before, or if you want to get involved, there are myriad activities available,” Gil said. “We’ve always had a nice social life,” Barbara added. “The difference is now it is all right here—right outside our door.” In fact, the Steins knew almost immediately that they would be most comfortable at Waverly Heights. When considering a life care community, they looked at nearly all of the local options, but always felt at home at Waverly. “Beauty is terribly important to me; I love green space, and this community is just outstanding in that area,” Barbara said. Gil concurred, “We were very attracted to the natural beauty

and lovely living accommodations, and once we came here, we found the activities were just wonderful as well.” The activities and the people have made what is undoubtedly a picturesque location a true home for the Steins. “The biggest thing we have here is a sense of community,” Barbara said. “The residents and staff are there for each other, and it is just a really warm environment.” Having found that sense of community that is missing in so much of adult life, the Steins have never looked back. “So many people tell us that they are not ready to move, but I’m not really sure what that means,” Barbara said. As a trained social worker with a Master’s in Social Services from Bryn Mawr College, Barbara saw firsthand the importance of planning for one’s later years. She had been an advocate of lifecare communities long before considering their own move; however, she could have never dreamt how much moving would enrich their quality of life. From pursuing beloved activities to hosting new friends, the Steins are fully enjoying everything that Waverly Heights has to offer. When they were researching life care communities, they thought they were giving a gift to their children. When they moved, they realized that the gift was really for them—and that it just keeps giving. Today, the Steins are thrilled to be literally living in the present.

Love Notes By Christy Brudin

ove notes are not just for star-crossed lovers or angst-filled teens. The senders and receivers of these missives are as diverse as the words themselves. Few love notes, however, are delivered with more gusto than the ones the White Horse Village Singers present to their audience twice a year. The White Horse Village Singers’ love notes are not written; they are sung. The singers and the choir’s codirectors, Robin Frenz and Kay Stretton, work tirelessly to put together two annual concerts for the residents of White Horse Village, a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) in Newtown Square, Pa. Robin and Kay have been directing the choir for ten years now, and they are immensely proud of what the group has accomplished. They have encouraged the members to challenge their voices and learn choral techniques. “We’ve grown from simple music to much more complicated music,” said Robin excitedly. Today, the 70- to 80-member group is performing a range of musical pieces, from classics and spirituals to Broadway tunes. The growth in the choir’s range has been matched only by the growth in its membership. There are no auditions for the White Horse Village Singers. “We really believe that everyone can sing,” said Robin. “We also believe that singing is good for anyone and everyone,” Kay added. By welcoming all singers, Robin and Kay have cre-

ated a group that is deeply connected and extremely passionate. On working with everyone from amateurs to seasoned singers, Kay said, “That’s the fun part.” Combining people who have sung in church and community theater all their lives with others who have sung only sporadically, and still others who have never held a choral score is exciting, she related. “The spirit is so great in the group,” Robin confirmed. In fact, the choir has become an inspiration and a source of pride for the entire community. “Something magical happens when our concerts come around,” said Kay. “[The residents] all love their neighbors, and they are so proud when they see them up there.” Among the group’s favorite concerts are the matinees for the residents of the on-campus medical center. The auditorium is filled with wheelchairs, and there are even residents out in the hallway enjoying the music. “I remember when the audience was singing Christmas carols with us, there was a man singing and a woman next to him crying,” recalled Robin. “Afterwards, she told us that her father hadn’t spoken in months, and he just started singing his heart out.” While the group and their audience have an undeniable chemistry, they are clearly following their leaders. Robin and Kay have been avid musicians and singers their entire lives. The two women met decades ago at Westminster Choir College in Princeton, NJ. They both went on to have successful careers working in church music ministry, teaching music at levels ranging from

S p e c i a l S e c t i o n : F e at u r e S t o r y high school to graduate school, and performing on concert stages around the world. “It has been my life to get people singing and to sing myself,” said Robin. “Choral music is my vocation and my avocation,” Kay agreed. When the time came for Robin and Kay and their families to look for retirement communities, they fell in love with White Horse Village and its bucolic setting. They also appreciated the security of knowing that additional care is available in their community should they need it. As a CCRC, White Horse Village offers independent living, assisted living, and long-term nursing or personal care. Surprisingly, neither Robin nor Kay originally planned to direct the choir, but they were pleased to help when the opportunity presented itself. Their efforts have certainly not

gone unnoticed. “I can’t tell you how thankful we are that they chose our community and have given so much of their time and talent to us all,” said White Horse Village’s Vice President of Marketing, Dottie Mallon. Robin and Kay are also extremely grateful that they found White Horse. “We moved in and have never had any regrets,” said Kay. Robin added, “When people ask me if I am going on vacation, I say ‘Are you joking? I live on a resort.’” For Robin and Kay, directing the White Horse Village Singers has been a wonderful extension of their successful professional lives. The Singers may not be world-renowned, but they are definitely celebrated in this tight-knit community. As the choir’s repertoire continues to grow, Robin and Kay will be there to ensure that each note is delivered with love.

Forging a New Relationship

Foulkeways at Gwynedd and Drexel University School of Nursing Work Together

or the last 10 weeks, Foulkeways at Gwynedd, a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) located in Gwynedd, Pennsylvania, has been partnering with Drexel University’s School of Nursing to provide hands-on training to 16 students. The students are training in Gerontology, which is the study of social, biological and psychological aspects of aging. Two groups, comprised of eight students each, have been spending one day a week working with the residents in Foulkeways Skilled Nursing Care Facility, Gwynedd House. Foulkeways is the recent recipient of the Pennsylvania Department of Health’s newly created, 2012 Excellence in Health Care Compliance Award. The community is also the first Quaker CCRC in the country and was one of the first CCRCs in Pennsylvania when it opened in 1967. Some of the students participating in the Foulkeways partnership are enrolled in Drexel’s Accelerated Career Entry (ACE) Program. This program is open to candidates who have already earned a degree in another field of study. Students in the ACE Program complete their curriculum requirements in one full calendar year. Students enrolled in Drexel’s traditional, four-year Bachelor of Nursing Program are also represented in this new, innovative partnership. The ACE students will graduate this September, while students in the traditional program will graduate in 2013. “All Drexel nursing students are required to complete their clinical practicum in a variety of specialties: Medical/Surgical, Pediatrics, Psychiatry and Gerontology, to name just a few,” notes Adjunct Clinical Professor, Maureen Hoban Kahn, MSN, RN, who serves as Drexel’s on-site program instructor. “The experiences at Foulkeways have influenced our students’ perceptions of working with the older population in a very positive way. They are being offered the opportunity to translate what they have learned in the classroom into a handson experience, and are seeing what respect and genuine caring look like in a real life setting.” Each student was assigned to a single resident’s care at the start of the 10-week program. Additional residents were added to the students’ rosters as the weeks progressed. Students were responsible for on-going assessments; wound care; medication distribution and monitoring; and even end-of-life issues, such as hospice, as circumstances arose. Students were also responsible for developing creative Resident Care Plans, which have included pet therapy; music appreciation; and a newfound understanding and respect for the vitality, diversity and wisdom of aging adults.

Drexel University Nursing Student Kelly Honore and Foulkeways resident Norma Kahn share a happy moment together.

“Our partnership with Foulkeways has allowed our students to enhance their skills in biology, psychology, communication and leadership, all the theories they have been studying, while interacting with compassion and attention to an older population,” explains Hoban Kahn. “Students have created care plans that have provided personalized attention focused on the whole individual, not just the frailer version of themselves residents are currently presenting.” “One of our students arranged for a retired physician living in Gwynedd House to conduct several lectures to the group on Pulmonary Medicine, his life-long specialty,” Hoban Kahn adds. “Other care plans have uncovered and reconnected residents with hobbies and passions such as poetry and music. Students have organized informal piano concerts and shared poetry readings, performed by the residents in their care, much to the delight of both the performers and the listeners. The students even convinced me to bring my therapy dog, Scruffy, to Gwynedd House, where residents graciously

HOW TO

prepare to move

roll up your sleeves, or let a professional help

he organizational and physical tasks of a move can often be overwhelming, but there are professionals and useful tips that can ease the transition for everyone involved. Seeking Professional Help Senior move managers are professionals who specialize in assisting older adults and their families with the emotional and physical aspects of relocation. They often have backgrounds in gerontology, social work, health care, nursing and psychology. Because they focus exclusively on the move process, move managers have significant expertise in resources and approaches that save money, reduce stress and produce quality results to meet the client’s personalized needs. Moving on Your Own Once you have made the decision as to where you are moving, you will have a much easier time figuring out what items to keep or get rid of. Having a floor plan and the important measurements will MovingPlannersF07 7/10/07 help in figuring out which large 10:01 items

you will be able to bring. Professional organizers say it is best to have at least six months for such a move, but whatever your timetable, you should get a calendar solely for planning your strategy. You might mark off “DDay” (for decision made) and “M-Day” (for moving), then mark (in pencil!) the day the necessary steps will be made. Decide on tentative dates for any sales you might have and make deadlines for other necessary tasks. Assign various responsibilities to family members. When estimating the time needed for big jobs, take a general tip from freelancers and independent contractors: figure out the time you think you will need, and then multiply it by at least two! Allow yourself enough time to ensure you have brought everything you want before the contents of your previous home are taken away. You do not want to regret having given away too much too soon, or to have important things lost in the shuffle. Some excerpts from this article used from Moving On: A Practical Guide to Downsizing the Family Home by Linda Hetzer and Janet Hulstrand (Stewart, AM Page Tabori & 1Chang).

creating a visual record when making a move Insurance companies recommend keeping an inventory with photos of household goods. Make a page for each room in the house, with numbered columns, listing the item (“bureau”), a description (“4-drawer oak chest, 30 inches long”), its history (“wedding gift”), and additional comments (“For my granddaughter Isabel”). If you want your family to decide which pieces interest them, leave the last column blank.

Number the photographs to correspond with the list. With a digital camera, you can create an electronic record that can be sent via e-mail. This will help sort and assign belongings, as each family member can mark those items they would like.

HOW TO

sort through items

donating and recycling your belongings

onating or giving away household items (finding new homes for them), or recycling them (finding new uses), can be a frustrating and confusing matter. What can you actually give away, and who will take it? This is often the part of the process where people become the most easily bogged down. The following, from Moving On discusses a couple of options when you are sorting through your belongings. Donating and Recycling When people want to donate household items, often the first place they think of is one of the major charities like Goodwill, the Salvation Army, or Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America—and for good reason. These agencies are willing to take many of the things we would like to get rid of and put them to good use by either giving them to the needy or selling them in their thrift shops, with the profits going to support their social services programs. Often these organizations will make it even easier on donors by coming to the home to pick up donated items. And when you give to charitable organizations, your donation is tax deductible. To be considerate when donating, make sure that all clothes are clean and

wearable, all appliances are in working order, and anything with multiple pieces, like children’s games or tool sets, have all the parts intact. Exactly which items charities accept varies from organization to organization and from location to location, so it’s best to contact your local outlet for specifics. Some charities post guidelines on their websites for items they will accept. Most charities accept clothing of all types and shoes for men, women and children, as well as costume jewelry and accessories; appliances in working order and household items; televisions, stereos and computers; books, toys and games; and sporting goods. Most do not accept broken appliances, water beds, furniture in bad repair, magazines or old encyclopedias, bathroom fixtures such as toilets or sinks, tires, paint, swing sets, water heaters, windows or doors. Household items can also be donated to smaller or locally based charities, such as veterans’ associations, churches and synagogues, children’s charities, and

programs for the elderly. Community theaters, women’s shelters, prisons, hospitals, rehabilitation centers and nursing homes also often accept donations of furniture and household goods. You might also inquire at local schools, preschools, day-care centers, art schools, and afterschool programs to see if they could use toys, games, books, desks, art supplies or musical instruments. The following are among the many household items charities and companies may accept: furniture; clothing; computers; cell phones; medical supplies; books; and odds and ends such as fabric, wood, leftover tile or paint. Excerpt from Moving On: A Practical Guide to Downsizing the Family Home by Linda Hetzer and Janet Hulstrand, which provides tips to get started, strategies for keeping things in perspective, and extensive source listings of where to donate or sell contents of a home.

transforming the challenges of selling and buying into choices

or those who have been in their homes for several years, relocating presents challenges far beyond the physical demands of carrying boxes and arranging furniture. These individuals may also face difficult emotional and financial decisions during the moving process. Preparing the family home for sale, downsizing, packing, moving, and setting up the new house are all physically and mentally arduous tasks. Fortunately, there are innovative real estate companies who offer customized services to help individuals with every aspect of moving and downsizing.

Step One: Preparing to sell or buy It is important that homeowners select a real estate agent who can meet their distinctive needs. The emergence of specialized real estate designations has made the process of choosing an agent easier. Senior Real Estate Specialists (SRES) are licensed Realtors who have received the SRES designation through the national Senior Advantage Real Estate Council. Senior Housing Specialist (SHS) Realtors have also met specific guidelines outlined by the Real Estate Certification Program (RECP). Both of these designations signal to consumers that agents have completed specialized training courses and are qualified to

F i n d i n g a r e a lt o r

selling your house during an economic downturn By Diane Krause

or the last few years, many homeowners have been keeping an eye on the real estate market and waiting for signs of improvement before considering a move. Newspaper headlines and TV reports scream doom and gloom, but that data is generally compiled from broad regional and national markets and doesn’t always consider your local real estate market. There are many areas in which homes that are priced right and show well are selling quickly! However, there is no clear picture as to when there will be an overall upturn in the real estate and financial markets. This uncertainty has caused many to delay downsizing to a smaller home or settling into a retirement community. Often, “quality of life” circumstances may dictate that your need to make a lifestyle change now may be of greater importance than the current real estate climate. Selling Your Home: Is Waiting the Right Choice? You may still be living in the home you purchased years ago to be in a particular school district or close to your employment. Ask yourself if the lifestyle you seek includes the burdens of homeowner-

ship, such as maintenance plus paying for ever-increasing taxes. What about transportation, food shopping and preparation? Snow! Healthcare? Health is a major consideration. If you are considering a move to a CCRC and you qualify for independent living now, will you qualify in a few years? You may not feel “ready” but life changes can occur suddenly. How do you value the security of being settled and having the sale of your house behind you? If it’s time for you or an aging loved one to move, don’t compromise your safety and security. Selling your home may not be as hard as you think. Determine Your Next Steps Meet with your family and other trusted sources to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of moving now. Remember, waiting for next spring does not guarantee a better market; it simply means you’re waiting. No one knows what the future holds. If the information on the table indicates it’s time to move, then don’t hesitate. Sit down with a senior real estate specialist, develop a plan and get moving.

Hire a Realtor that Specializes in Working with Seniors The Senior Real Estate Specialist, SRES®, designation is offered to Realtors through the National Association of Realtors. SRES designees are real estate agents who specialize in senior needs and can ease the transition by utilizing years of experience in helping seniors downsize. They can help you explore your housing options, use their expertise and industry knowledge to provide an honest assessment of your property, and make suggestions for improving its saleability. They will develop a pricing and marketing strategy and use their team of resources to sell your home for the most money and get you moved with the least stress. For more information, visit: www.sres.org. The Society of Certified Senior Advisors offers the Certified Senior Advisor (CSA) designation. This designation is available to anyone who offers professional services to seniors. The CSA requirements are more comprehensive and rigorous than the SRES requirements. In addition, the designee is required to undergo ongoing ethics education and must commit to ongoing volunteer hours working with seniors. More information is available at www.society-csa.com.

HOW TO

obtain legal advice

elder law attorneys cater to your legal needs

ince living decisions are becoming increasingly complex, many people find themselves searching for someone who can cater to their specific legal needs. Making sure that you have the right professional for the job at hand is the first and one of the most important tasks in getting any job done the right way. When it comes to your legal needs, there’s no difference. Finding the right attorney may take some research and time, but in the end, it’s always better to have done your due diligence. What is an Elder Law Attorney? An elder law attorney is an individual who specializes in areas of the law that are particularly relevant to senior citizens and their family members. These attorneys generally focus their practices in a few of the following areas: estate planning, long-term care planning, social security, public and private pensions, Medicare, Medicaid, Medigap insurance, long-term care insurance, age discrimination, durable powers of attorney, living wills, conservatorship and guardianship, or abuse. Elder law attorneys can offer an especially sensitive ear concerning the sometimes difficult decisions involved in one’s later years. While dispensing legal advice, they are also able to refer

issue? Is it likely that you will have to go to court? Are there non-legal resources available to help you? Can you resolve this difficulty on your own or with the help of a family member? To pick the right attorney and save yourself time and money, you must know your needs. If you aren’t familiar with your own situation, it can be difficult to explain it to someone else. Know your own financial limitations and the financial benefits of engaging the services of a specific attorney. In other words, only buy what you need and what you can afford. If you only want a will that names your spouse as your sole beneficiary and there are no other needs, you probably don’t need an expensive package. Be a smart consumer. Elder law attorneys lend their expertise on estate planning, pensions, long-term care planning, age discrimination and wills.

HOW TO

find an elder law attorney

utilize your resources and ask the right questions The most effective way to locate a qualified attorney is through a recommendation from a family member, friend, or an attorney you have consulted before and trust. The AARP (www.aarp.org/legalsolutions) and the state bar association (www.hg.org) offer impartial attorney recommendations. The National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (www.naela. org), a professional association of attorneys dedicated to improving the quality of legal services provided to the elderly, and the National Elder Law Foundation (www.nelf.org), a non-profit organization dedicated to the development and improvement of the professional competence of lawyers in this particular area, can both offer advice for finding a qualified elder law attorney. A referral from family or friends can be a good resource so long as you ask

more than how they liked the person. The attorney may have been a likeable person, but you should be more interested in how the case turned out. Once you have found an attorney that you are considering hiring, carefully and fully explain your legal problem so the attorney can provide an accurate estimate of the time that will be necessary to solve your problem. You will also want to inquire about the attorney’s certifications and memberships with professional organizations. Finally, be sure that you are clear on the specific costs. The questions below will help you to get the information you need before making a final decision: n What will it take to resolve this issue? n How long has the attorney been practicing?

What percentage of the attorney’s practice is devoted to this area of law? n How much experience does the attorney have with cases like yours? n How much elder law training has the attorney had, and from what organizations? n If a trial will be involved, does he/she do trial work? n Is your attorney a member of the local bar association? The National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys? n Is your attorney certified by the National Elder Law Foundation? n What additional out-of-pocket expenses will be incurred? n What is the estimate of the cost involved to resolve your problem? n

HOW TO

make financial decisions

when the time is now

hen it comes to taking care of your loved ones, you will undoubtedly have to make some difficult financial decisions, and you may be faced with some unwelcome surprises. Where Do You Start?

OBTAIN POWER OF ATTORNEY — You will need this legal authority to access your loved one’s accounts and financial records. Without Power of Attorney, you will not be able to make any financial decisions and will have to have a court-appointed Conservator named. PUT TOGETHER A BALANCE SHEET AND CASH FLOW STATEMENT — First,

create a basic balance sheet. In one column, list the value of their assets, such as their home, stocks, mutual funds, CDs and retirement accounts. In another column, put down their liabilities, such as outstanding mortgage or car loan balances. Then, do a cash flow statement. List the monthly income from each of their investments, including reinvested dividends and capital gains, as well as any pension income

and Social Security benefits. Finally, figure TAX CONSIDERATIONS — Many inditheir monthly expenses, including mort- viduals neglect to file for available tax degage or rent payments, utilities, groceries, ductions for medical expenses.

HOW TO

find care management

those familiar with the industry can help you navigate it

ith the complex maze of resources available today, many families are turning to Geriatric Care Managers (GCM) for help with decisions that are appropriate for their lifestyle and needs. With training in social work, nursing, counseling, and/or gerontology, GCMs offer customized consultations and administer a “care plan.” Though it outlines the necessary steps required to obtain the appropriate type of care for the client, this plan is not binding and is rather considered a recommendation from an informed expert. Who Needs a GCM? Families who are confused about how to care for a parent or loved one are primary candidates for geriatric care managers. The services of a GCM can enable you to make decisions that are appropriate without causing undo stress. Instead of waiting for a crisis situation, you may want to turn to a GCM earlier, so that there are more options available. How Much Will It Cost? As fees for a GCM range, you should

check with your Medicare office to see if you are eligible for subsidies. The average time required by a client is four hours. After spending a couple of hours completing a comprehensive evaluation, the GCM spends a few more hours researching and discussing available options with the client and their family, helping them to implement the care plan. What Can a GCM Do for Me? COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT. Utilizing their professional backgrounds and experience, care managers are able to perform an unbiased evaluation of the client’s mental, physical, social, financial and legal functioning. RECOMMENDATIONS. After determining what services would be helpful for the well-being of the individual, the GCM can recommend providers who will best meet the family’s needs. Familiar with industry standards, they routinely make recommendations for all levels of care. COUNSELING. The counseling that GCMs can provide helps clients and their families handle the emotional stress involved with these decisions. They provide the family with information about the illness or challenge that the client faces and the available resources.

MEDIATION. GCMs can also negotiate family dynamics, helping to sort out all of the various concerns that have resulted from the challenge of caring for a loved one. FOLLOW-UP VISITS. GCMs are generally involved in the implementation of the care plan. This typically includes followup visits to the individual’s home or facility a couple of times a week shortly after implementation and quarterly thereafter. Some clients are visited once a week for the duration of their services. Follow-up visits also allow the GCM to determine whether the current care services are working.

How do I Choose a GCM? When considering a GCM, be sure to take into account their professional standing, as well as their personality and how comfortable they make their clients. Although there is no official licensure process for care managers, the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers has established standards of quality and a Code of Ethics; these standards as well as referrals for GCMs can be accessed through www.caremanager. org.

Your Solution for Peace of Mind “The help you have given us can only be described as priceless. If I have any regret, it is in not having made the connection earlier.” –W.D.R. JR., CLIENT’S SON

Resolving Communication Breakdowns Seeking Assistance Employee Assistance Programs, often known as EAPs, are a service put in place by most mid-sized and large employers. These programs usually have resources available to help both employees and their families through elder care challenges. Consult with your company’s human resources department for more information.

When it comes to the different challenges associated with caring for a loved one, poor communication is often at the root of the problem. You can take comfort in the fact that there are others who have grappled with the very same issues and who can share their mistakes and solutions. These individuals can be found through support groups, your employer’s human resources department, or even just by asking trusted friends and neighbors. Seeking Objectivity Sometimes an objective third party’s opinion is beneficial when you are faced with a personal family problem. Mediation professionals specialize in resolving conflicts, making compromises and leading family members through the communication process. One unique feature of this process is the non-judgmental mediator, who is skilled in improving communication among the family members. Seeking Support Attending support group meetings will allow you to meet with like-minded people, share similar scenarios, confide in each other and build healthy camaraderie. Furthermore, important resources can be shared and solutions from experienced members will abound. Seeking Advocates When it comes to a breakdown in communication between residents and communities, ombudsman are available to advocate for the residents’ rights. This national program is a great solution, as the ombudsman will investigate any complaints and determine what appropriate action should be taken.

choosing where to live By Suzi Klyber Choosing where to live as you age is not an easy decision. There are so many variables that come into play. As a home care therapist, I often see people in the wrong setting for them. They do not have a clue where they should be living. Often, the family of the senior automatically assumes that they need to be moved to an assisted living. Gaining awareness of how to effectively make the right choice is important. How do you choose? What affects your choices? Below are some questions to guide your selection process: n Do you have the ability to perform all of the activities of daily living? n Cost of active adult or assisted living centers versus living in your own home with help? n Is your home accessible? If not, can it

be made accessible with simple changes? n Cost of moving versus making necessary changes that allow you to stay in your own home? n Do you have family close by to help with activities of daily living if necessary? n Are county services available to you at your income level? n Do you have the ability to pay someone to perform the activities of daily living you cannot or choose to no longer perform? n Do you prefer to stay close to your own doctors, church, community and friends? n Are you able to drive or do you need a ride everywhere you go? n Should you move closer to your children? Think about this decision in terms of your adult children’s plans to stay where they are once they retire. n Do you have the money set aside to pay for assisted living and/or a nursing

home? Are you aware of the cost and/or the breakdown of costs? Children of seniors please remember you are simply a consultant to your parents until such a time that they are no longer able to make these decisions themselves. Work with them and, if need be, bring in experts to evaluate the level of help they ultimately need (i.e.: senior care managers, social workers from your county, geriatric psychiatrists, occupational therapists that perform the KELS evaluation, Aging-In-Place Contractors). Forcing them into your way of thinking only destroys your relationship with them. Remember to work together as a team. Ask questions and be open and willing to learn what they desire and need. Suzi Klyber, OTR/L, is a Home Care Therapist for The Medical Team & Consultant for Granting-You-Access.

It Takes a Village By Christy Brudin

hey say it takes a village to raise a child. That may be true, but the need for the support of friends, neighbors and professionals to build a successful life doesn’t end with adolescence. At Twining Village, a Diakon Senior Living Retirement community in Bucks County, Pa., residents quickly realize that their new home is a true village. “This is really a village; it’s not just a name,” said Bill Jadney, who made the move to Twining Village in March with his wife, Elaine. “The community is not big, but it is not tiny; you just wouldn’t believe how nice it is to live in a genuine village.” June Clothier, who just moved to the community in May, concurred, “I love the relaxed atmosphere here, and the people are very friendly. There is a real sense of community.” For the Jadneys, their first taste of life in a strong community came just a few months after they moved in, when Bill fell and broke his ankle. “The first thing we said was thank goodness we moved here,” recalled Elaine. “I was so impressed that the following day our executive director, Philip Hickey, greeted me by name and asked about my husband.” Since day one, June has enjoyed the community’s amenities, and she continues to get involved in new activities. “I truly love no longer having to cook my dinner, and the food is great,” she said. “I also workout in the gym three days a week, and I’m looking forward to helping in the new library.” Like good neighbors in any nice community, the staff and residents of Twining Village are constantly working to make their community better. “The staff is so incredible,” Elaine said. “From the maintenance folks to Jerry Gallagher and Kylie Emery in Marketing, everyone was so helpful with our

Bill and Elaine Jadney appreciate the intimate atmosphere of Twining Village.

transition.” Not surprisingly, Twining Village’s dedicated staff is juggling several improvement projects in various stages of completion. A beautiful new dining room was recently completed, as were enclosed and climate-controlled walkways between the multiple buildings on campus. “Regardless of the weather − rain, snow or cold − we can walk inside from our apartment to the dining room or the wellness center or the auditorium,” said Bill. However, the Jadneys often walk outside to enjoy the wooded campus featuring mature trees and garden courtyards. There is also construction underway that will completely renovate the reception area. “If the new reception area is anything like the new dining area, it is going to be amazing,” Elaine said. “I loved the community before, and it just keeps getting nicer.” Of course, even with all the new improvements, the one amenity that continues to captivate new and old residents alike is the intimacy of the Village. “This is really where everyone knows your name,” Elaine said. “I have been to other retirement communities that felt like hotels.” June added, “The people here are wonderful, and if you want to participate, there is always something to get involved in.” At Twining Village, every improvement and each resident helps to nurture the dynamic spirit that makes the community a true village. As each new resident discovers, it does, in fact, take a village to create a rewarding retirement. For more information about Twining Village, visit http:// www.diakon.org/twiningvillage

Artist at Home in Bucks County

By Mary Clark

njoy what you do; good advice and lucky people discover it early. Sylvia Roman was always drawn to pottery, the art and craft of working with her hands to create something beautiful and useful. Following this passion led naturally to many other interests. Whether crafting a vase for one of her favorite Ikebana flower arrangements, experimenting with glazes or teaching others how to throw a pot, Sylvia is doing what she loves to do. While teaching pottery in the Pine Run Craft Barn, Sylvia Roman came to know Pine Run and the people who live there. A full service retirement community owned and operated by Doylestown Hospital, Pine Run is popular among active and artistic seniors. Drawing inspiration from a location well known for harboring creative types, Sylvia’s ceramics classes came alive with resident artists, designers and adventurous others taking full advantage of the new instruction and energy. An accomplished potter, Sylvia is a juried member of the Pennsylvania Guild of Crafts. She has exhibited locally including in Philadelphia and has been featured in shows and galleries throughout Canada and the United States. She became known for her skill in the ancient primitive Japanese process of Raku, where the piece is grabbed from a blistering hot fire and smothered in sawdust and leaves, allowing the smoke to chemically alter the liquid glaze and adding a unique metallic luster. “My husband Robin assisted me pulling the pieces from the flames and was relieved when I shifted my focus.” explained Sylvia, “He jokes about finally growing his singed eyebrows back.” The couple met as young University students in Canada, Robin destined for pharmaceutical research and Sylvia for pottery. After living and traveling all over the world, they found Bucks County to be as beautiful as any place they had ever been. Sylvia credits their happy marriage to having similar tastes but different approaches. “Robin has a Ph.D. and works with his brain; I have to jump in and learn by actually doing it,” she said. “We went to France last year to attend cooking classes and had such a great experience; we are going to take a class in Italy next. Robin is a wonderful cook,” said Sylvia. “I like it too, and I know how to debone a turkey.” To support these interests and more, a unique 1,300 square foot cottage with a vaulted ceiling and skylights is

taking shape at Pine Run. The new cottage features a gourmet kitchen boasting all the bells and whistles, a media room and a potter’s personal studio. Ebony cabinetry will complement a large Chinese brush painting of bamboo and horses. “We found the painting in our travels; the design sensibilities are wonderful, and I love horses,” explained Sylvia. Relocating for a time to Great Britain for Robin’s job meant that Sylvia had to sell her kiln and equipment, trading it all in for jodhpurs and boots. She seized this new opportunity to ride around Surrey’s country estates. Most fun was participating in old-fashioned pub rides full of good fun that held the promise of comfort, camaraderie and a pint at the end of a long ride. This same adventurous spirit now leads Sylvia to Pine Run Community in Doylestown. “I really love it here,” she said. “I can’t wait to be able to walk right out of my door and over to the Craft Barn.” She says she feels a complete sense of happiness in this creative environment, working in the muddy water of a slip bucket, using her donated potter’s wheel as a teaching tool. As part of this new adventure, Sylvia is excited to see others give rise to a curvy pot or vase to sell at the Fall Festival or to be wrapped and given as a treasured personal gift.

HOW TO

stay surrounded with activity

active adult communities keep residents moving

or those unfamiliar with available living options, the image of the “senior community” may need a serious makeover. Many individuals still think of retirement communities as dreary “facilities” with an institutional feel. This could not be further from the truth today. Active Adult communities, also known as leisure communities, are populated with adults who have come to live there by choice. In fact, individuals often choose to move into an active adult community as soon as they hit the requisite age – usually around 55. The amenity filled communities are often adjacent to golf courses or other recreational facilities.

Not Just Active, but Pro-Active These individuals say they are making the move because they want to enjoy a hassle-free lifestyle, not because of deteriorating health. Simply put, it is their choice. Most active adult communities are not equipped to provide increased care or health-related services. However, several active adult residences are part of a larger Continuing Care Retirement Community, where residents can count on extended care if they develop health problems. This continuum of care allows active adults to make the most of the present while planning for the future. Gaining Independence Active adult communities often have a full range of entertainment options, and most of the costs are included in the living fees. They are ideal for retirees, but are not limited to those who have stopped working. Many residents continue to put in hours at work, while others fully explore long-lost hobbies or new interests. Homes in these communities are constructed of low-maintenance building materials and feature virtually maintenancefree yards. This way, residents can spend more time filling their schedules with fa102

Active Adult communities seek to meet the needs of Baby Boomers by providing environments in which individuals can enjoy the many amenities of a community lifestyle.

vorite hobbies and group activities, rather than tending to home-related tasks. Tennis courts, swimming pools, hiking trails, biking and jogging paths, and fitness centers are among the many features generally available within the community. Instead of navigating traffic when going to the gym or beauty shop, residents can often walk a few blocks to an on-site facility. There is also something to be said for having an elegant dining room in the community, although cooking in one’s private residence is still an option. What to Look For You can start by requesting an information packet from every active adult community you are considering. Make sure to read it carefully, and keep them all organized in a folder or file cabinet. Once you have narrowed down your

Tell them you saw it in the SourceBook

options by perusing the brochures, schedule a visit to each community. While you are there, take thorough notes and make a list of pros and cons for each one. Ask if you can dine with residents, talk with staff and read the residents’ handbook during your visit. When you meet with the management or resident relations director, make sure to assess the management’s philosophy and its relationship with residents. And never underestimate the power of the good old-fashioned hunch. If you attended college or had to consider employment in a new area, remember the criteria you used in making that decision. This is no different. Prioritize your own needs and feelings and give yourself plenty of time to make a decision. This is your new home and a place you will come to enjoy for decades.

HOW TO

receive care for life

continuing care communities offer support for changing health needs Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) offer long-term contracts that guarantee lifelong shelter and access to specified health care services. A staff of medical professionals is on hand to provide different levels of care, from independent living to assisted living and nursing care. A member can move up or down this continuum of care for the rest of their life. Most CCRCs establish requirements for incoming residents based on age, financial assets, income level and physical health. Residents are typically expected to move in while they are still independent to get to know the community. In return for guaranteed lifelong shelter, amenities and health care, residents usually pay a lump-sum entrance fee and

regular monthly payments. There are three basic types of CCRC contracts. An extensive contract covers shelter, residential services, and amenities, plus unlimited long-term nursing care without an increase in monthly payments (except for increases related to operating costs and inflation adjustments). An extensive contract spreads the risk of catastrophic health care costs among all residents, so that no single person faces financial ruin. Entrance fees and monthly costs under this contract are typically higher than those under modified or fee-for-service contracts. A modified continuing care contract covers shelter, residential services and amenities, plus a specified amount of nursing care. After the specified amount has been received, the resident can receive

care at daily or monthly nursing care rates. A fee-for-service continuing care contract covers shelter, residential services and amenities. While emergency and short-term nursing care is usually included in the contract, access to long-term nursing care is guaranteed only at daily rates. Entrance and monthly fees are lower because residents are responsible for all long-term nursing and health care costs. Most CCRCs provide a variety of residential services that may be covered by monthly fees or be available at extra cost, depending on the contract. Visit the CCRCs you are considering with a trusted family member. Immerse yourself as much as possible in the daily life and assess the management’s philosophy and its relationship with residents.

HOW TO

understand entrance fees

knowing the options when paying for ccrcs Most CCRCs 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 CCRC 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 are typically more expensive than those without refunds or those that are par-

HOW TO

get excellence in care

a quality improvement initiative to benefit consumers According to the website for LeadingAge, formerly the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, Quality First is a framework to help aging services providers achieve excellence and earn the public’s trust. Quality First is about raising the consciousness of all the stakeholders–government, consumers, and their families. Quality First applies to the full continuum of aging services including adult day services, home health, community services, senior housing, assisted living residences, continuing care retirement communities and nursing homes. All LeadingAge members can improve performance by using Quality First in areas such as continuous quality improvement, better human resources management and risk management. Most im-

portantly, adopting LeadingAge Quality First can help individuals better understand and trust the available aging-services options. For a list of Quality First communities, see pages 56-57.

Implementation and Outcome There are numerous ways providers can implement Quality First. Increasing staff awareness and upgrading equipment are some initiatives taking place as a result of Quality First.

The Core of Quality First The ten Elements of Quality that cover all aspects of aging services organizations are the basis for this philosophy. They are: Commitment, Governance and Accountability, Leading-Edge Care and Services, Community Involvement, Continuous Quality Improvement, Human Resources Development, Consumer-Friendly Information, Consumer Participation, Research Findings and Education, and Public Trust and Consumer Confidence.

Consumers Reap Benefits of Quality First Consumers can use Quality First when seeking a quality long-term care provider for themselves or a loved one. The free Consumers’ Guide to Quality Aging Services includes questions consumers can ask when they visit different senior housing options and when they inquire about adult day and home health services. The guide is available for free download at http://www.leadingage.org/qualityfirst.

boomers are retiring Despite the popular belief that Baby Boomers will continue to work well past the traditional retirement age of 65, those born in 1946 are retiring in droves, according to Transitioning into Retirement: The MetLife Study of Baby Boomers at 65. This study is a follow–up to the 2008 MetLife Mature Market Institute study, Boomer Bookends: Insights into the Oldest and Youngest Boomers (released in 2009), which looked at the same segment of Boomers at age 62 and includes 450 of the same interview subjects from the original study. The study reports that 59 percent of the first Boomers to turn 65 are at least partially retired – 45 percent are completely retired and 14 percent are retired, but working part-time.

baby boomers on the move Despite popular belief, a recent analysis of government data by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) reveals that the geographic distribution of households headed by someone age 55 or older is fairly even across most of the country, with more than 30 percent of all households in every state meeting this description. The study sheds valuable light on a key statistic for housing demand among active adults, as NAHB’s long-term forecast indicates that the share of 55+ households will grow every year through 2019, when the 55+ category will account for nearly 45 percent of all U.S. households. “As more baby boomers approach retirement and the average age of the U.S. population increases, many businesses— including home builders—are showing increased interest in designing products that appeal to customers 55 and older,” said Paul Emrath, NAHB’s vice president

HOW TO

live independently

communities offer security with no home maintenance Independent living communities are residential communities for active older adults who want an enjoyable lifestyle free of the worries and trouble of home maintenance. They are similar to any apartment, condominium or singlefamily development, except that they provide special services, including security—an important consideration for many residents. Most independent living communities are fully secured; staff members greet and screen all visitors around the clock. Residents can leave home for extended periods of time knowing that their living quarters will be safe. Many independent living communities provide a full range of activities that promote social contact among resi-

dents. Shopping trips, outings to cultural events and organized gatherings are typical activities. Some communities also have tennis courts, swimming pools, activity rooms and other amenities. Most offer a variety of meal plans, including the option to prepare meals in your own apartment. Most independent living communities do not offer health care services (such as those provided, for example, by assisted living communities and nursing facilities), but some independent living communities Many independent living communities provide are affiliated with health care facilities that a full range of activities that promote social can provide such care when it is needed. contact among residents.

paying for independent living communities the costs involved and how to narrow your options Most independent living communities are rental communities, but some are condominiums or single-family communities in which residents can purchase their own units or homes. Costs and services vary widely. In some communities, a monthly fee covers many services, while in others a fee-for-service system is used. A few independent living communities offer subsidies based on strictly defined need. However, it is important to note that there is almost always a waiting list for subsidized units, so start planning earlier if you need this assistance. To learn more about what is available, contact your local Area Agency on Aging. What to Look For A major question for those who are considering an independent living community is how to meet their future health care needs. It is important to have a specific plan covering various levels of care, especially if you are only interested in making one move during this time. You also may want to question whether to select a fee-for-service arrangement or an all-inclusive fee.

HOW TO

understand rental options

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. To apply for housing in a privately-owned affordable housing community, a person will have to visit the management office for

each community. Contact your local HUD office to get a list of privately-owned communities near you. Source: http://www.aahsa.org/article. aspx?id=3780

HOW TO

handle financial obligations

he MetLife Mature Market Institute has released a series of planning tips, Preparing for Family Financial Responsibilities Across the Generations, to help Americans navigate family financial relationships. A follow-up to the organization’s recent study, MultiGenerational Views on Family Financial Obligations, the document, available for download online, helps people determine how their sense of responsibility or desire to help children or parents translates into action. Can you or should you help your children or grandchildren financially? When do you stop supporting an adult child? Do your parents need financial assistance? “We’ve prepared these tips to help people prioritize their family responsibilities and to learn how to meet them,” said Sandra Timmermann, Ed.D., director of the MetLife Mature Market Institute. “In our study, we determined that people provide financial assistance to family members out of a combination

of love and need. There is agreement that parents should support children through their college years, help with tuition (90%) and step in to provide financial assistance during an emergency – not of the child’s doing. But, they stop short at paying all college tuition costs if they’re particularly high. There is also a consensus against bailing adult children out of debt when the debt is from overspending.” Timmermann continued, “How do individuals determine when to help others and when to allow them to be independent? We found that people must examine their own financial status and make decisions about how to assist their family members based on their ability to do so, the real needs of their parents and children and a look down the road at how each party will be able to deal with change and unexpected pitfalls.” Among the tips listed in the publications are the following: • Begin with an understanding of where you are in your life. Knowing your own assets, income, existing debt and obligations for the future will help you deter-

mine if you’re in a position to help others. • Start with taking care of your own needs first. It is helpful to pay down debt and secure your retirement income before endeavoring to provide assistance to family members. • Reassess as you go along. Changes occur; be sure to continue to monitor your own financial picture. • Don’t just give more...give for. If you decide you can give, do so with a stated goal or objective, especially those who are practical. • Make your legacy a family conversation, not a family secret! Open communication among the generations goes a long way toward avoiding feelings of suspicion, anxiety and resentment. For a full copy of the study, visit www. MatureMarketInstitute.com. The MetLife Mature Market Institute is Metropolitan Life Insurance Company’s (MetLife) center of expertise in aging, longevity and the generations and is a recognized thought leader by business, the media, opinion leaders and the public.

HOW TO

choose assisted living/personal care

an option that provides supportive services

ssisted Living/Personal Care communities offer housing and a variety of supportive services delivered by qualified staff members. As opposed to independent living communities, health care services are available at these facilities. In January 2011, the state of Pennsylvania instituted changes in legislation regarding the use of the term “assisted living.” The state’s new term “personal care home” is defined as follows: “A premise in which food, shelter and personal assistance or supervision are provided for a period exceeding 24 hours, for four or more adults who are not relatives of the operator, who do not require the services Assisted Living and Personal Care communities in or of a licensed long-term care facility, offer housing and a variety of supportive but who do require assistance or supervi- services delivered by qualified staff members. sion in activities of daily living or instruWho Needs It? mental activities of daily living.” Assisted Living/Personal Care comResidents usually include anyone who munity amenities vary widely but can needs some help with the activities of include private units, state-of-the-art fa- daily living.

nities are equipped with security systems and emergency call systems are often available in all residences. For residents with more acute health care needs, such as Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, special units and/or specially trained staff members are often available. In addition, communities offer a wide range of social activities to stimulate resident contact. Standard activities include religious services, educational programs, games, clubs and entertainment. Many communities also offer exercise and wellness programs. Often, activities are catered to and driven by resident interests. Choosing a Community It is a good idea to carefully review several of the available options. First and foremost, consider the needs and desires of the potential resident. Begin the initial process of narrowing the search by reviewing a list of all the local communities. Request a brochure from your top choices, as well as other specific information communities can provide such as the resident agreement or contract, a list of services and amenities, detailed prices, staffing information, admission and discharge criteria, and community rules. It is advisable to visit a facility more than once to get a complete feel of the lifestyle at the community. Talk with staff and residents and tour the entire facility.

HOW TO

pay for assisted living/personal care

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 pro-

vide 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. The nationwide average cost for an assisted living/personal care residence is $2,714 per month or $32,572 annually. These figures are averages only and do not account Area Agencies on Aging can provide information on subsidies and other payment assistance for more affordable or subsidized options programs for assisted living/personal care. that are available in most areas.

10 Tips for Choosing an Assisted Living/Personal Care Facility 1. M ake 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 or move 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.

Alzheimer’s

HOW TO

choose alzheimer’s care

a special care residence may be the right option

pecial care units are a relatively new concept, so certification standards for nursing homes and adult care residences do not specifically address these programs. You will need to rely on your own judgment when considering a special care unit. Visit more than one special care unit and compare them. Use all your senses when you visit — sight, smell and hearing are all important. Be sensitive to the overall atmosphere and how the staff interacts with the residents. Ask about the number of staff on duty at all times and find out about any special training they have had. Generally, the more staff available, the higher the quality of care. Some reports find a daytime ratio of six residents to one staff person to be adequate in a special care unit; others feel that a ratio of eight to one can also result in quality care. At night, when residents are in bed, a higher patient to staff ratio may be fine. Get a written description of the services and programs offered by any special care unit along with the charges or fees associated. This description should clearly explain to you how the special care unit differs from the rest of the nursing home or

All dementia special care units should focus on the individual needs of the resident.

assisted living facility. It should emphasize special training the staff receives and describe the environment. Before choosing a special care unit, you should be confident that the higher price charged for care in the unit will actually result in better care for your relative. You may find that your relative can be adequately cared for in a regular unit. Finally, talk with someone about special care units. Your state ombudsman, your local chapter of the Alzheimer’s

Association, or your local Area Agency on Aging are all good resources. They may be able to provide you with a more detailed consumer checklist to help you compare special care units. All dementia special care units should focus on the individual needs of the resident. Care plans should be developed, implemented and reviewed often. All patients should be treated with respect and dignity in a physical environment that encourages independence while promoting safety.

Memory loss that disrupts daily life One of the most common signs of Alzheimer’s is memory loss, especially forgetting recently learned information.

HOW TO

evaluate nursing care

specialized care for individuals who need daily assistance

hile some individuals are able to continue running their households with little assistance, there are those who may have debilitating physical or emotional conditions that require care beyond what family or professional home care aides can provide. It is best to start researching nursing facilities before an emergency arises to avoid making a less than ideal choice.

What is Nursing Care? At a nursing home, 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 homes 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 enter a nursing home 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 home care; insurance payments are usually a fixed amount for a specified number of qualified days. The basic daily rate is the standard charge the nursing home 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 amenities that are not included in the basic daily rate.

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. Visit your prospects at different times of day. Talk with residents. Be persistent about getting your questions answered.

Entering & Adjusting to Nursing Care Although some people enter a nursing home temporarily for a short-term stay, it is still a sad day for most. Reassurance from family and friends that love and contact will be maintained can ease the transition. The following steps may help lessen the trauma of this change: n Talk about the admission in advance and describe the home in detail. n Visit the home with the prospective resident beforehand and get to know the administration. n Involve the prospective resident as much as possible in the decision-making process. n Decide together what items to bring to What to Look For in Nursing the nursing home. Care n Be available the entire day of admisBefore choosing a home, contact the sion to help settle the resident and provide Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program support.

HOW TO

remain at home

receive assistance while enjoying the comforts of home Home care can include a wide variety of healthcare and supportive services from professional nursing and home health aide services to physical, occupational, respiratory and speech therapies. 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. Options in Home Care An incredibly diverse field, home care includes companion care, home healthcare, skilled nursing or hospice care. COMPANION CARE is provided by caregivers or companions, who serve as surrogate family members, performing

many of the tasks that family members 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. Additional services generally include meal preparation, mobility exercises, housekeep-

ing, laundry, medication reminders and transportation. SKILLED NURSING CARE is prescribed by a physician and is administered by a registered nurse. The services provided by skilled nurses include: administering injections, administering medications, wound care, IV monitoring, blood tests, catheter care, respiratory therapy, physical therapy, feeding tube administration and more. Finding a Provider After determining the type and amount of services needed along with payment options, consumers should begin interviewing potential providers. This is a highly important decision, since finding a qualified, reliable and compassionate individual is essential to the health and happiness of patients and their families.

HOW TO

pay for home care

understanding costs can help with decision making As remaining at home is becoming an increasingly popular option for many, it is important to understand the costs of care and your payment options while researching different home healthcare companies. Costs for companion care are covered primarily by private payments and range from $15-$25 per hour. Home healthcare must also be paid for with private funds, unless it is prescribed by a physician and provided by a Medicarecertified agency. Prices for home health care also range from $15-$25 per hour. Long-term care insurance policies may cover companion care and home health care. If you qualify for Medicaid, a government program for low-income individuals, it may subsidize some of your home care needs. Since laws vary

from state to state, you will need to contact your local Area Agency on Aging for more information concerning government benefits. Skilled nursing care will be paid for by Medicare as long as it is determined to be “intermittent skilled care,” which includes occupational, respiratory, speech and physical therapy. To be covered, care must be ordered by a doctor. Individuals who meet income requirements may be eligible to receive skilled nursing services through Medicaid. Major medical health insurance will also cover Individuals who meet income requirements a limited number of skilled home vis- may be eligible to receive skilled nursing its.

H o m e H e a lt h C a r e R e a l-L i f e Story

fter her mother passed away, Ann May knew that her father, Robert (“Bob”) Maroncelli, was no longer going to be able to live independently. As a nurse with more than 20 years of experience in the home care industry, Ann was well aware of the array of home care options available, and she knew that her father wanted to remain in his long-time home. Bob and his wife, “Mickey,” moved to their home in Buckingham Springs retirement community several decades ago after they retired. An accountant, who worked most of his career for the Internal Revenue Service, Bob continued to be active in his community and his church. However, as the years passed, several health problems started to cause mobility issues. As Bob became less mobile, his wife began acting as his primary caregiver. When Mickey was admitted to the

hospital because of worsening heart disease, Ann and her sister quickly realized that their father was going to need some additional help. “I knew of Visiting Angels already, and knew the woman across the street was using them,” Ann recalled. “I called around to a couple of home care agencies and Visiting Angels was the most accommodating and the easiest to work with.” Visiting Angels began helping Bob periodically, whenever Mickey had to be

hospitalized. The family was always satisfied with the care and companionship he received. When Mickey passed away, Ann turned to Visiting Angels once again. The agency found permanent, live-in assistance for Bob within several days. “Tina moved in immediately, and my father has really taken to her,” Ann said. “She provides personal care and helps him with ambulating, and she also does some meal preparation and generally just makes sure he is well taken care of.” Since Ann is busy with her own demanding career and her sister lives in Connecticut, the family feels incredibly fortunate to have a quality caregiver with Bob at all times. “There is an enormous sense of reassurance knowing that he is very well taken care of; that gives us a real peace of mind,” said Ann. With the assistance of Visiting Angels, Bob continues to live in his comfortable and spacious home, where he receives frequent visits from neighbors and friends from his church.

Home Care Patient Rights Federal law requires that all individuals receiving home care services be informed of their rights as a patient. Following is a model patient bill of rights the National Association for Home Care (NAHC) has developed, based on the patient rights currently enforced by law.

Home care patients have the right to: n be fully informed of all rights and responsibilities by the home care agency; n choose care providers; n appropriate and professional care in accordance with physician orders; n receive a timely response from the agency to request for service; n be admitted for service only if the agency has the ability to provide safe, professional care at the level of intensity needed;

receive reasonable continuity of care; receive information necessary to give informed consent prior to the start of any treatment or procedure; n be advised of any change in the plan of care, before the change is made; n refuse treatment within the confines of the law and to be informed of the consequences of this action; n be informed of his or her rights under state law to formulate advanced directives. For more information on patient rights, visit http://www.nahc.org/consumer/rights.html. n n

Plan ahead: Secure your Valuables Before opening your home to any service provider, including in-home caregivers, you should take a few steps to make sure that you protect yourself and the caregiver. Taking these steps does not demonstrate a lack of trust in the provider. It is simply logical to make sure that you look after your assets. You should place any of the following items in a safety deposit box or other secure location: n

Small valuables

Irreplaceable or sentimental items

Small family heirlooms

hunting for a prescription drug plan is no game n

By Michael Weakland

It’s that time of year again. “Open season” for the Medicare Part D prescription drug plan is here. Hunting down the best plan for you is no game. Newly eligible Medicare beneficiaries, and current beneficiaries who are considering changes to their Medicare Part D plan, should mark their calendars. The “open season” will run from October 15 to December 7. The Medicare Part D prescription drug program is available to all Medicare beneficiaries to help with the costs of medications. While all Medicare beneficiaries can participate in the prescription drug program, some people with limited income and resources also are eligible for “Extra Help” to pay for monthly premiums, annual deductibles and prescription copayments. The Extra Help is worth about $4,000 a year. To figure out whether you are eligible for the Extra Help, Social Security needs to know your income and the value of any savings, investments and real estate (other than the home you live in). To qualify, you must be receiving Medicare and have: • Income not over $16,775 for an individual or $22,695 for a married couple living together. Even if your annual income

Some Medicare beneficiaries with limited incomes and resources are eligible for financial assistance to help cover Medicare Part D prescription drug plan costs.

is higher, you still may be able to get some help with monthly premiums, annual deductibles and prescription co-payments. Some examples where your income may be higher include if you or your spouse: —Support other family members who live with you; —Have earnings from work; or —Live in Alaska or Hawaii; and • Resources not over $13,070 for an individual or $26,120 for a married couple living together. Resources include such things as bank accounts, stocks and bonds. You can complete an easy-to-use online application for Extra Help at www.socialsecurity.gov. To apply by phone

for the Extra Help, call Social Security at 1-800-772- 1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778). And if you would like more information about the Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Program itself, visit www.medicare. gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-6334227; TTY 1-877-486-2048). This open season (October 15 to December 7), after you track down the perfect prescription drug plan for you, hunt for something that could put about $4,000 in your pocket .

HOW TO

protect your assets

elect non-crisis planning for you or your loved one n by Susan Piette

re you getting older? Are your parents? Do you and/or they have a plan? Consider Joe and Helen. They met just after he was discharged from the Army. They married, raised two boys and a girl, worked hard their entire lives, retired with a nice nest egg of funds, and looked forward to time with their daughter’s children who lived a few hours away. Their first son lived out of state, had a well-paying job and was married with no children but separated from his wife, whom Helen was never very fond of. Their second son had never quite “launched,” was not married, had a hard time holding a job and was currently on governmental low-income assistance. Joe managed the family assets and fi-

nances. Their home and a small checking account were held in Joe and Helen’s name, but all investment accounts were in his name alone. Joe did fairly well in the stock market, and he was certain that the assets would not only provide for him and Helen but also provide a nice inheritance for their children and especially their beloved grandchildren. Helen’s memory had been on the decline for some time, but the children didn’t realize how bad it was until Joe slipped while shoveling snow, broke his hip and had to stay in a rehabilitation facility. Helen could not be left alone and was not going to be able to care for Joe when he came home. Helen went to stay with her daughter, who temporarily reduced her full time employment to part time so that she and Helen could visit Joe 3-4 times a week. The daughter had to hire home healthcare aides to be

with Helen when she had to be at work. Joe was recovering well but suddenly developed a blood clot and died. Neither Joe nor Helen had executed a will, a power of attorney or an advance healthcare directive. None of the children ever wanted to talk about the “what ifs” and now the family was in crisis. They had failed to plan. 1. Fact/Question: Joe and Helen’s house and bank account are titled jointly but the assets in the investment accounts were held in Joe’s name alone. With no Will in place providing direction on who should receive these assets, how will they be distributed? Answer: When a loved one dies without leaving a will, he or she is said to have died intestate. When this happens, any assets held in the decedent’s name alone will be distributed according to the intestate laws of the state where the decedent lived. Warn-

H o m e H e a lt h C a r e ing: such distribution may or may not accord with that person’s wishes. Unintended results: • Helen will only inherit a portion of the investment assets (under Pennsylvania law: $30,000 plus 1⁄2 of the balance of the funds) and the children will receive equal shares of the remainder of funds. • Should the son who is separated get divorced, the daughter-in-law, who Helen doesn’t care for, could receive a portion of Joe’s estate in the divorce settlement. • If the son on governmental assistance accepts the inheritance money, he will most likely be disqualified from his governmental assistance and have to reapply after the inheritance money is used up; or he may need to utilize a portion of those funds to establish a type of trust for the funds, so that he may continue to receive the governmental assistance and have the inheritance funds supplement, not replace, his governmental assistance. 2. Fact/Question: Helen no longer has the capacity to execute an advance health-

care directive. What is an advance healthcare directive and why is it so important to have one in place? Answer: An advance healthcare directive is an instruction given by you concerning the medical treatment or care that you would want - or would not want - should circumstances arise where you are no longer capable or competent to give such an instruction. Advance healthcare directives are the best way to ensure that your express wishes for health care are known and honored. Unintended result: Helen’s wishes for her medical treatment and end of life decisions may not be followed. 3. Fact/Question: The daughter provided caregiver services and expended personal funds for the benefit of Helen without documenting the arrangement. Can she be reimbursed? Answer: Yes, but if the daughter accepts payment(s) for services and expenditures without a properly documented caregiver agreement and Medicaid is needed as a

source of funding for skilled nursing care for Helen, such payment(s) may be determined to be an inappropriate transfer of funds and cause an ineligibility period for Medicaid benefits, resulting in the family having to pay for skilled nursing services that Medicaid would have otherwise covered. Joe and Helen failed to put in place a “Senior Plan.” What’s your Senior Plan? We all want peace of mind about our welfare and our assets. You are the only one who can make important decisions about how you would like to live. Those decisions MUST be documented. In this case, information is power! Anyone who is aging, or has elder parents should engage in non-crisis planning and review their SENIOR PLAN with an experienced elder law attorney. Susan Piette is an attorney with the estates and trusts group of the law firm of Hamburg, Rubin, Mullin, Maxwell & Lupin, which has been assisting parents and their children with estate planning for over three decades.

HOW TO

make aging in place possible

professionals can help modify the home for your needs Countless studies have shown that homeowners overwhelmingly prefer to age in a familiar place, but when daily life becomes too much to manage, substantial home alternations may be necessary. Certified Aging-In-Place Specialists (CAPS) can help reconcile the need for a familiar environment with the need to prioritize safety and accessibility. Such specialists have been trained in the specific needs of the older adult population and unique ways to modify homes. They are also experts in designing remodeling projects and addressing common barriers to accessibility. One thing to keep in mind when considering a CAPS is that they draw from their professional knowledge to help turn your ideas into an organized and thorough plan. However, no matter where you start in the process, a professional remodeler will have to be hired to make the actual modifications to your home. Some typical modifications that will increase access and maneuverability include brighter lights, bath and shower grab bars, higher countertop heights, multifunctional first floor master suites,

CAPS can help reconcile the need for a familiar environment with the need to prioritize safety and accessibility.

and elevators. CAPS are mostly remodelers, but a number of general contractors, designers, architects and health care consultants who have been instructed in techniques for building aestheticallypleasing, barrier-free living environments are also involved in planning.

The CAPS designation was developed by The Remodelers Council of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) in conjunction with the NAHB Research Center, NAHB 50+ Housing Council and the AARP to address the growing number of consumers requiring these modifications.

H o m e H e a lt h C a r e Making A SAFER HOME for Seniors NON-SKID RUGS

Remove throw rugs, or use rubber backing or apply double-faced adhesive carpet tape to the backs of all area rugs and runners to prevent slipping. REVIEW MEDICATIONS

Used with permission from The Home Safety Council

The medications you take—and even the foods you eat—can affect your balance. Check with your doctor or pharmacist annually to review your medications and diet plan. HANDRAILS

Install handrails on both sides of all stairways—making sure they extend the full length of the stairway. Also make sure you have lights at the top and bottom of the stairs. BATHROOM SAFETY

Install grab bars in your bathtub or shower stall and near a toilet. Never use towel racks for balance—they can easily come loose, causing a fall. EXERCISE DAILY

Using your muscles helps maintain balance, strength and flexibility. Try Tai Chi, walking, water aerobics or dancing. FOOTWEAR

It’s best to wear thin, non-slip soled shoes, not thick-soled jogging shoes.

marci’s medicare answers Dear Marci, I was told by my doctor that I might be considered a hospital outpatient, as opposed to a hospital inpatient. What’s the difference, and what does this have to do with Medicare? —Norman

Dear Norman, Generally, an outpatient hospital service is any type of medical care you receive at a hospital that your doctor does not expect will require an overnight stay. However, in some cases, you might stay overnight at a hospital and still be considered an outpatient. To be considered a hospital inpatient, you need to be

formally admitted to the hospital. The difference in your hospital status can affect your Medicare coverage for other services. For example, Medicare will only cover your stay in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) if you have spent at least three consecutive days as a hospital inpatient. Inpatient hospital services, like SNF stays, are generally covered under Medicare Part A, while outpatient services are usually covered under Medicare Part B. Emergency room services or outpatient clinic services, such as sameday surgery, are generally considered outpatient services. Check with your doctor to see if you are an outpatient or inpatient, since this difference can affect

the way Medicare covers the health care services you receive. —Marci Marci’s Medicare Answers is a service of the Medicare Rights Center (www.medicarerights.org), the nation’s largest independent source of information and assistance for people with Medicare. To speak with a counselor, call (800) 333-4114. To subscribe to “Dear Marci,” the Medicare Rights Center’s free educational e-newsletter, simply e-mail dearmarci@medicarerights.org. To learn more about the services that Medicare will cover and how to change plans, log on to Medicare Interactive Counselor at the Medicare Rights Center’s website at www.medicareinteractive.org.

HOW TO

find daytime supervision

centers provide socialization and peace of mind for caregivers

dult Day Centers are an important option for family caregivers, as they offer socialization, activities, and necessary supervision for 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 Information on local Adult Day Centers may also be available through senior centers, family physicians or the local Area Agency on Aging. 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, carefully observe the general atmosphere of the building and the program. The layout of the building and the rooms should ensure easy accessibility for persons in wheelchairs or using walkers. The entire facility should be clean and pleasant. Furniture should be sturdy and comfortable, with choices available for lounging and participating in activities. Beyond the general setup of the facility, focus on the interaction between the staff members and the participants. Do

the participants appear happy and satisfied? Are volunteers available to offer assistance? The center should be a welcoming place, complete with staff members who are ready and able to help. Also, notice the participation level of the attendees. Are they actively involved? Inquire as to whether participants are involved in planning activities and how staff members handle suggestions for new programs. During the visit, staff members should be able to provide clear and easy to understand information about the services and activities provided at the center. Be sure to obtain answers for any remaining questions about center procedures, staffing and costs. Checking references from individuals who are currently using this provider or have used them in the past is the final step. After choosing a provider, try them for at least three to five days. If there are problems making the adjustment, staff members may be able to offer advice to help make the transition smoother.

Your Local Agencies On Aging On the local level, Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) coordinate and provide services to meet the needs and concerns of residents who are 60 years of age and older. The Department of Health and Human Services defines an AAA as a “public or private non-profit agency, designated by the state to address the needs and concerns of all older persons at the regional and local levels.” Because of the many services and programs they offer, AAAs are one of the single most important retirement resources. Available services vary by locale, and the list on page 82 is just a sampling of the ones that are routinely offered by AAAs.
