All in the Family
W
By Christy Brudin
hat’s a family? It depends on who is defining the term. Family may refer to biological relatives, close friends or a combination of the two. Ultimately, a family is a group of people with deep connections and strong bonds—with ties that bind. At Kensington Park Senior Living, family connections— both biological and emotional—are easy to find. From the Executive Director’s parents who are proud to call the community home to a founding partner’s mother who found support following her husband’s death, the community is truly a family affair. But the family extends beyond traditional relationships. Residents quickly make friends who feel like family, and staff members treat each resident like a family member. Kensington Park is an independent living, assisted living and memory care residence located in the heart of Montgomery County, Maryland. The community offers continuity of care, allowing residents to easily transition from Independent Living to onsite Assisted Living and Memory Care as needs change. Spouses can receive the same or different levels of care according to their personal needs
and preferences. As a part of Kensington Senior Living, Kensington Park embraces the company’s mission to take the assisted living model to a higher level by developing environments that are comfortable, elegant and staffed by loving professionals. Kensington Senior Living currently operates three additional senior living communities, two in California and one in New York. The newest community is scheduled to open in January 2017 in Falls Church, Va., and will offer assisted living and memory care in the vibrant downtown neighborhood. Founding Partner Steve Lampa will assume the role of Executive Director at the new community. He is currently building an exceptional team to deliver best-in-class care and services to the new residents and family members. “Both of my parents were so happy at Kensington Park,” recalled Lampa. “Just two months after moving, my mom told me that she wished she had moved earlier because she had made a lot of friends and was having such a good time.” After struggling with health issues and becoming largely confined to their longtime Chicago home, Steve’s parents moved to Maryland to become part of the Kensington

Only the best for you
...and the best is all Kensington Senior Living knows how to do Six years ago, a group of passionate senior living professionals dreamed of developing and staffing residences where they’d want their own parents to live. So they did— in Kensington, MD, and next, in Falls Church, VA in early 2017.
K
ensington Senior Living is the proud provider of residential communities designed with deep understanding of the seniors they serve. Best-in-class professionals deliver care and services that help residents make the most out of every day in elegant yet comfortable surroundings. Ties to the community are strong and carefully chosen partners bring supplemental care, services, entertainment and cultural enrichment to residents.
Enhanced assisted living includes a full spectrum of clinical care and more assistance than other traditional providers can offer. Three unique levels of memory care—The Kensington Club, Connections and Haven—skillfully address the features unique to early, middle and late stage memory loss. Independent living, available at Kensington Park in Maryland, caters to generally healthy seniors who are socially driven and active. No matter which lifestyle residents choose, all benefit from an uncompromising regard for excellence, a passionate desire to serve and ongoing commitment to positive change. Please call or visit a community near you to learn more about independent living, assisted living and memory care.

Park community. When his father passed away, his mother received much-needed support and empathy. “The staff and the other residents were so supportive of her when dad passed. It was so much better than it would have been if they were still alone in Chicago,” Steve said. “‘We promise to love and care for your family as we do our own’ is not just a slogan; it is really true,” explained Kevin Mell, son of community residents, Horace and Geraldine Mell, and brother to the Executive Director Mary Mell. “You can see that in the fact that we have chosen to have our own family here.” Horace and Geraldine Mell have been residents of Kensington Park for nearly two years now. Horace worked for the power company until he retired, and Geraldine was a crossing guard. The couple raised five children: Kevin, Patty, Karen, Mary and Theresa. When it became clear that Geraldine needed more care because of her declining memory, the Mells moved to Kensington Park at the urging of all their children, including Executive Director Mary Mell. As Geraldine’s care needs continued to increase, the couple decided to transition into Memory Care together. Horace now lives in the Memory Care neighborhood with his wife, even though he doesn’t need that level of care. “A lot of communities do not allow for the mixed levels of care that our parents are receiving,” Kevin explained. “It is so nice for them because it helps dad feel closer to mom and know he is supporting her.” Two of Horace and Geraldine’s other daughters, Patty Savage and Karen Pecoraro, are very active as volunteers at the community. For the Mell family, the larger Kensington Park family is an essential part of every day, and they are committed to helping the family grow and prosper. It’s no surprise that when Patty’s in-laws started to need more care, she directed them to Kensington Park. Albert and Millie Savage moved to the community from the home they had retired to in Williamsburg, Va. “They knew all about the community, and what a nice place it was, and of course, they knew my sister. It has been so nice to have them here where we can all take care of each other,” said Patty. “I’ve been here about two months, and I’ve adjusted very well,” added Millie. “I met about ten people the first week I was here. Everybody is so nice, and the staff couldn’t be friendlier.” Millie worked in accounting for twenty years, and Albert was a banker with First Virginia. The couple has eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Millie lives in Kensington Park’s Independent Living complex, while her husband gets the care he needs in the Memory Care neighborhood. “I get involved,” said Millie. “For me, each day just gets better and better.” Millie plays bocce ball frequently with her fellow residents. She also visits her husband in the Memory Care neighborhood every day. A regular participant in a variety of additional daily activities, Millie reports that there are so many things to do she simply does not have enough time to do them all.
Founding Partner Steve Lampa helped his parents relocate from Chicago to Kensington Park, and they benefitted greatly from the family atmosphere at the community. He is pictured here in front of the new Falls Church location. One thing that Millie always makes time for is dining with her friends. “I eat dinner with the same people every night, and we are always the last table to leave the dining room. We are talking and laughing and having a great time,” she said. In addition to a slate of regular activities and delicious dining options, residents and staff are also treated to frequent special events. From the daily cocktail hours in each community to the large holiday parties, Kensington Park knows how to celebrate. Whether it is the Fourth of July or Thanksgiving, residents are sure to enjoy a delicious meal and exciting entertainment. A graduate of the Culinary Institute, Morissa Harris is now the Director of Dining Services at Kensington Park, and she ensures that each event features a delicious menu of seasonal favorites. “I’ve heard these events compared to White House events,” Patty said. “They really are fantastic; we can’t overstate how nice they are,” added Kevin. While the special events are memorable, it is the daily connections that really make Kensington Park special. Having experienced the community from the perspective of an administrator and a family member, Mary knows better than most people just how unique it is. “Being a family member and seeing that other side of things—separate from being the executive director—has been a beautiful thing,” Mary said. “The staff treats all the residents so wonderfully. This has been really eye opening to see just how amazing everyone who works here is. That’s why I see them as my family too.” Mary’s siblings echoed her sentiments. Kensington Park is not just run by a family; it is a family. And the residents agree. “The other day, I was bringing my in laws back into the community, and one of the residents who is friends with my dad stopped to introduce me to his daughter,” Patty recalled. “After he told her my name, he said, ‘This is my other family.’” A family has connections. A family celebrates milestones and weathers storms. A family grows up and grows old— together. The residents and staff at Kensington Senior Living are a true family—and they are all in.

Moving On By Christy Brudin
M
oving can be difficult. But like most things, it gets easier with practice. And if practice makes perfect, then Joan Johnson and Sue and John Mouser are nearing the expert level. All residents at The Woodlands Retirement Community in Fairfax, Va., Johnson and the Mousers have moved multiple times in their lives—from single family homes to condos and now to the retirement community they call home. The Woodlands offers independent living in an environment reminiscent of a five-star luxury resort, complete with beautiful grounds and endless activities. As part of the continuing care options offered by the Bainum family, The Woodlands provides independent living residents with priority access to higher levels of care at nearby sister properties. Residents at The Woodlands can transition to The Gardens if they require assisted living and/or to Fairfax Rehabilitation and Nursing Center if they need to recover from an illness or injury or require more advanced long-term care. Joan Johnson has always lived in Virginia, but she has moved nearly a dozen times. “We lived in eleven different houses, apartments and condos. Instead of remodeling, we moved,” she recalled. Now a resident at The Woodlands, Joan found the transition to a retirement community both easy and rewarding. Joan moved to The Woodlands with her husband, Julian, seven years ago. Julian has since passed away, and Joan was enormously grateful to have the move behind her and to enjoy the support of her new friends and neighbors during that difficult time. Joan and Julian looked at several retirement communities before selecting The Woodlands, largely based on the Bainum family’s reputation and the small size. “My husband had been an accountant for Fairfax Nursing Home, and he knew that if the Bainum’s were running this community it was not going to fall through,” Joan recalled. “I loved the size of the community, which is not too large, but it is large enough to have plenty of activities and options.” While moving was not particularly challenging for her, Joan advises prospective residents to focus on all that they gain when they leave a longtime home. “As long as you have your stuff that is meaningful, you are home. I never had that allegiance to a house, but even if you do, be positive and this is a great lifestyle.” Much like Joan, Sue and John Mouser had lots of practice with moving. They transitioned to The Woodlands three years ago after carefully reviewing several local retirement living options. “We had thought about moving to The Woodlands years before, when it was in the planning stages,” Sue recalled.

Joan Johnson has moved nearly a dozen times in her life, but her move to The Woodlands has been the most rewarding.
“Years later when we came out to visit and there was a twobedroom apartment open, that was it.” While their decision to move happened quickly, Sue and John’s love story developed much more gradually. The couple met in Sunday school when they were just 10 years old. They dated in high school but parted ways when they attended different colleges. However, after a year at MIT, John transferred to Principia College near St. Louis, where Sue was a student. “He started asking me out again,” Sue remembered. “I was carrying a very heavy course load and didn’t have time to date. I told him that he needed to meet my freshman roommate, and he agreed.” John later married Sue’s roommate, Kathy. The couple had two children and lived in New York for decades while John worked for IBM. After his retirement, they moved to Oakton, Va., to be near their daughter. Unfortunately, shortly after they moved, Kathy passed away. Meanwhile, Sue graduated, received a Fulbright scholarship and moved to France to teach. While living abroad, she studied voice to become a professional singer. Eventually, Sue relocated to Germany and became a full time opera singer. “I was in Germany for the better part of a decade singing some of the biggest and best roles in the world, and I had a great time,” Sue said. Over the years, Sue and Kathy remained friends. “Sue gave our son his first haircut,” John recalled. Sue added, “The whole time it was a really close relationship.” Sue’s mother and Kathy passed away within months of each other, and John and Sue were able to support each other during the grieving period. They again developed a relationship and were married in 2001. The new couple settled in Oakton in a single family home.

However, the stairs in the house became a problem for Sue. After six years in their home, John and Sue relocated to a condo in Fairfax. As Sue’s joint problems progressed, they knew they needed to find a more accessible living arrangement. Sue also needed a pool for her physical therapy. That’s when the Mousers decided to look at The Woodlands again. “We looked at some other retirement communities too, but they are mostly very large, and I was totally turned off by that,” Sue said. Now settled in at the Woodlands, the Mousers are pleased with their new lifestyle. John plays golf regularly on nearby courses and participates in several senior groups. Sue does water walking in the pool frequently and enjoys organizing musical programs for her fellow residents. “We are friends with almost everybody here,” Sue said. “This is such a friendly, warm community. The people here are well traveled, well educated and intelligent.” A self-proclaimed “gypsy,” Sue has moved many times in her life—including her recent moves with John—but the move to The Woodlands has been the most fulfilling. “Because of my career, I didn’t have what a lot of people have—the 40 or 50 years in the same home—but I think even people who have been in the same place for so long can benefit from planning ahead,” Sue concluded. “It’s just too hard to

move and downsize if you wait until you are in failing health. Don’t wait and lose your chance to move where you want to.” For Joan Johnson and Sue and John Mouser moving was easy. It was not just their extensive experience with moving that made the transition simple though; it was the lifestyle they were moving to. At The Woodlands, residents enjoy an array of activities with a wide array of friends. They do not just move to a new community, they move on—to a new way of living.

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 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 help in figuring out which large 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 “D-Day” (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.

HOW TO
utilize real estate transactions
transforming the challenges of selling and buying into choices
P
reparing the family home for sale, downsizing, packing, moving and setting up a 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 meet the unique needs of their clients throughout the home buying and/or selling process. After finding a qualified agent, homeowners are ready to begin the process of preparing to sell their home. A qualified agent’s comprehensive assessment of the condition and marketability of the home can decrease selling time and increase
selling price. Specialized agents can also help clients prioritize repairs and locate qualified professionals to complete such projects. Utilizing the help of professionals to prepare for a sale can ultimately result in a selling price that reflects the top market value for the home. Step Two: Packing and sorting Items should be sorted into distinct categories: keep/move, give to family, donate to charity, and throw away. The initial list of items to keep will likely be larger than the new space can accommodate. Moving professionals, however, can offer advice by taking into account their client’s personal tastes, the financial and sentimental value of possessions, and the new floor plan. Step Three: Moving For many, moving day is simple and rewarding due to comprehensive, customized real estate services provided prior to the sale of the house. On moving day, real estate professionals can recommend trusted companies to help with the physical aspects of moving, while providing assistance with the job of unpacking and setting up the new home. Challenges become choices As the challenges of moving fade due to increasingly helpful professionals, people are left with nothing but choices—where to move, when to move, what

to take and how to decorate the new home. Individuals considering a move are no longer faced with the difficult questions of how to market their homes and move their belongings, as there is help available every step of the way.

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
understand estate planning and probate
elder law attorneys can help
E
state planning means much more than preparing a Last Will and Testament or tax planning for the disposition of your assets upon your death. Estate planning is the process of accumulating and disposing of an estate to maximize the goals of the estate owner. The goals of estate planning typically include making sure the greatest amount of the estate passes to intended beneficiaries, often including paying the least amount of taxes. Estate planning must also provide for administration and protection of assets during lifetime and for decision-making in the event of a disabling illness. Any complete estate plan should contain: 1. A Last Will and Testament
2. A durable health care power of attorney naming an agent (and an alternate agent) responsible for medical decisionmaking 3. A living will or other advance directive giving instructions concerning the type of care one wishes to receive (or avoid) in the event of a terminal illness, and 4. A durable financial power of attorney naming an agent (and an alternate) responsible for asset and financial management if one is unable to do such things for oneself. Estate planning may also include the creation of trusts. Estate planning is an opportunity to make wishes known and to determine what person(s) will be responsible for carrying out those directives. You are
able to state your preferences concerning the type of care you receive, what types of medical care you do not wish to receive and can authorize someone to act as your agent in carrying out those wishes. Should you fail to do such planning, then there may be confusion as to what your wishes might have been and who you would have preferred to act as your decision-maker. In fact, without such information, your wishes may never be known. If you do not leave a Last Will and Testament, your assets will be distributed according to the laws of intestate succession in your state. There are laws in each state governing the rights of surviving spouses, heirs and next of kin in the absence of a Last Will and Testament. Continued on page 42

estate planning ... Continued from page 41
Probate Probate laws, practices and costs vary from state to state. A qualified Elder Law attorney will be able to advise you as to the probate laws, practices and costs in your state. What You Need To Know In preparing an estate plan, it is essential that all of your assets are considered. You should do a complete inventory of all that you own before contacting your estate planner. Your estate consists not only of your
home, your car and your bank accounts. Your estate also includes the value of life insurance policies, investments that you may own (including those held in joint tenancy with other persons), your IRAs and other retirement accounts, and any other assets over which you can exercise control. It is extremely helpful for you to have a centralized and secured record of all of your financial accounts; insurance policies; credit, debit or loan accounts; safe deposit box; and account IDs and passwords. You will need to make decisions about what to include in your estate plan. First,
you should determine who will inherit your property upon your death. You must also be certain that your spouse or heirs are capable of managing financial affairs. If capacity or vulnerability is an issue, you may want to name a trustee to handle financial affairs for him or her. You have to designate an Executor or Personal Representative to administer your estate. An alternate Executor or Personal Representative should also be appointed. Special arrangements may be needed if there are particular family issues, such as a second marriage by either spouse. You will also need to list any specific gifts you want to make to family or non-family

E l d e r L Aw members and/or to charities. Once these decisions are made and your inventory is completed, your attorney will be able to advise you as to the best technique to use in planning your estate. You should consider your preferences concerning health care options and decide who will be your decision-makers, and do the same with regard to your finances in the event of a disability. Finally, you should give thought to the difficult questions of what type of care you would want or not want in the event of terminal illness. If you have special desires concerning disposition of your remains, such as burial in a certain place or possible cremation, these should be brought up during your planning conference as well. These are complicated and personal issues. The advice of a qualified Elder Law attorney is essential to protect your financial health and welfare and to ensure that your health care wishes are known and carried out.
The Role of the Elder Law Attorney Elder Law attorneys who specialize in estate planning are trained and experienced with wills, trusts, powers of attorney, advance directives or living wills, and the intricacies of estate and inheritance taxes. They may recommend accounting services, financial planners or insurance purchases, but they do not earn their fees by selling such products. As a result, you are more likely to get thorough and unbiased advice from a qualified Elder Law attorney. Many Elder Law attorneys have developed special expertise in estate and disability planning and have obtained the specialized knowledge and experience to provide clients with a complete plan for caring for yourself or a loved one, transferring assets, and carrying out all of a clients’ wishes. In addition, Elder Law attorneys are sensitive to the special needs of elderly clients and their families. Be certain to assure yourself that the attorney you choose has such experience and training. Attorneys will ask clients for a great deal
of information and will request original documents such as deeds, account statements and insurance policies. It is the attorney’s role to assure that all of the elements of the estate plan are properly handled and reviewing names on titles, beneficiary designations and other similar information is part of thorough planning. All of the information provided to an attorney is, of course, confidential and may not be disclosed to others without your permission. The National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA), founded in 1987, is a national association of Elder Law Attorneys devoted to the education and training of attorneys who can meet the needs of seniors and people with disabilities, and who advocate for the needs of such individuals.

STANDARDS OF PRACTICE AND CODE OF ETHICS The Aging Life Care Association (ALCA) developed the standards of practice and code of ethics to guide Aging Life Care Professionals in their daily professional and business practices. Additional information, as well as the full code, is available on ALCA’s website: aginglifecare.org.
THE CODE OF ETHICS PROVIDES:
Accountability to our Clients ALCA members recognize diversity in our society and embrace a multi-cultural approach to support the worth, dignity, potential and uniqueness of each client. The Code of Ethics acknowledges the vulnerable population we serve and makes explicit the highest standards of practice. Accountability to the Public The Code of Ethics sets a national standard for the professional practice of Aging Life Care™. It defines for the public the ethical responsibilities expected of ALCA’s members and the organization’s role in maintaining the highest standards of practice and promotion of ethical behavior.
Education of Aging Life Care Professionals ALCA recognizes the diversity of the experience and education of its members and the needs of members for guidance in both their professional and business roles, and thus the Code of Ethics was developed to guide members in each of these roles. It states the core values and principles to current and future members, to the public, and to allied professionals. All members of ALCA are expected to understand and behave in a manner that is consistent with the provisions of the Code of Ethics.
A Framework for Analyzing & Resolving Ethical Dilemmas The Code of Ethics offers a framework for ethical decision-making when conflicts arise in either the practice or the business of Aging Life Care. It assists Aging Life Care Professionals in examining the ethical issues present in all aspects of their work by identifying what principles need to be considered and how to prioritize them when it is necessary to make a choice. It asks Aging Life Care Professionals to be aware of their own biases as they seek to resolve ethical dilemmas. Assistance in Reviewing Complaints In ALCA’s Peer Review Process the Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice serve as the basis for assessing and resolving ethical or business practice complaints against members in their practice of Aging Life Care. THE CODE: ETHICAL PRINCIPLES AND STANDARDS OF PRACTICE SUPPORTING THESE PRINCIPLES Integrity An Aging Life Care Professional is honest, diligent, and accountable in the provision of service.

HOW TO
get help managing money
stop watching those statements and bills pile up
O
lder adults frequently become overwhelmed with the amount of medical statements and other mail they accumulate in a short time. Insurance and medical bills are often confusing — or even contradictory. Daily Money Managers (DMMs) can help manage these concerns by monitoring their client’s accounts and outstanding bills, while also protecting against identity theft. What is Daily Money Management? Daily Money Management is a service that addresses an issue facing many senior citizens: handling paperwork that seems to expand endlessly. Daily Money Managers provide personal financial assistance to seniors, usually in the client’s home, while simultaneously safeguarding the valuable identity they’ve worked a lifetime to establish. What services does a Daily Money Manager offer? They offer an array of services, which
include balancing checkbooks, writing checks to pay bills, and keeping accurate records of all checks written and all deposits made. This kind of record keeping provides peace of mind for the client and, in some cases, for their family. DMM services also provide value in monitoring medical bills, ensuring that Medicare and other health insurance providers have paid their share before the client pays any balance due. Another important component of one’s financial health is identity protection. Several firms offer identity theft protection, fraud protection and other security-related services for seniors. “Seniors have a lot to lose, and often don’t have the background or tools to recognize or spot fraudulent activity quickly enough,” said David Poulos, Chief Marketing Officer of Senior Guardian Services based in Baltimore. “We can give seniors peace of mind by paying their routine invoices for them, reviewing bank statements, reviewing marketing offers and other incoming mail, and protecting them from being exploited.” Additionally, DMMs can help with in-

come tax preparation and in documenting medical and charitable contributions that often mean the client will pay lower taxes each year. How do I find a Daily Money Manager? Because finances are a highly personal matter, hiring a DMM is an important and individual decision. Referrals from a friend or colleague are a good place to start. If necessary, contact your local Area Agency on Aging for suggestions. The American Association of Daily Money Managers’ website (www. aadmm.com) can also provide valuable information that will help you find a reliable DMM. Once you have found a DMM you are interested in hiring, it is a good idea to ask about their experience and qualifications. It is especially important to know whether your DMM is bonded and insured. You also want to determine how the DMM you plan to hire bills for their work. Hourly fees vary by locale, but in this area, the average range is $55 to $100 per hour.

the keys to healthy living By Dr. Vivek Sinha
W n
e hear about “health” all the time. Television, radio, magazine articles, even friends and family have no shortage of tips and advice on how to get healthy. If one were to follow all that advice, then they would be hopping from one fad diet to another, cutting out carbs, sugar and gluten and running from gym to gym wearing nothing but the highest end sport shoes. So what is the safest, most effective way to improve your health? The answer varies by the person; for example, an 85-year-old man will have different needs than a 25-year-old woman. But there are some general points that are applicable across all patients. First, define what “health” means for you. Do you want to reduce or hopefully end your need for blood pressure medications? Do you want to be able to fit into smaller sized jeans? Do you want to keep up with your grandkids or run that 10K? Or do you simply want to feel better and hopefully live longer? After my patient has defined their goal, I usually spend some time obtaining objective data. Height and weight, blood pressure, heart rate, cholesterol level, sugar level and a detailed medical history are just a few of the data points that physicians use to risk stratify their
patients. Occasionally, if a patient’s numbers are very abnormal, they may need intervention (medications, cardiac clearance, etc.) prior to starting exercise. Second, getting healthier takes a planned approach that involves at least one lifestyle change. I usually advise my patients to prepare for a lifestyle change like they are preparing to go into battle. Formulate a game plan, gather your resources and have a start date. Tell your friends, family and coworkers about your plan, so they can keep you honest and motivated. Ideally, find someone to join you — helping someone else is a fantastic way to help yourself. Thirdly, exercise is essential. People may say that if you simply change the way you eat, you will lose weight. But not only will exercise jumpstart that weight loss, it also will help keep the weight off. I advise my patients to get a calendar, and each Sunday, circle the five days of the week when they will work out. They should also weigh themselves each morning and write that number on the corresponding date. One basic rule of exercise: do an activity that makes you sweat and do it for at least 20 to 30 minutes. Finally, health cannot be achieved without proper nutrition. We need the appropriate fuel to think clearly and function at peak level. One of the worst things that we can do is to skip breakfast. When people skip breakfast, the
body has to get its fuel from muscle and not from fat. Six small meals a day maximize your metabolism. I advise patients to eat a fruit or vegetable with every meal. Ultimately, getting healthier is a journey. This journey takes commitment, but you do not have to take it alone. Talk to your doctor. They will provide plenty of practical, personalized advice on getting healthier. By working with your primary care physician, you can reach your goal safely and effectively. Dr. Vivek Sinha is the chief medical officer at Belleview Medical Partners.

evaluating physicians who offer house calls a guide for patients and families n By Eric Baron, MD
F
or every individual in a nursing home, there are three more people equally fragile and infirm living at home, according to the American Academy of Home Care Physicians (AAHCP). Physicians and medical groups specializing in house calls have become increasingly available to such patients. If you are unable to visit your own physician, house call physicians who come to your home can provide consultations to your doctor or serve as your private doctor. Because of changes in medical technology, a physician can come to your home with portable medical equipment and provide high-quality medical care. When it comes to finding a potential house call physician, Alan Dappen, MD with doctalker, recommends two methods - research and referrals. “The AAHCP is the largest house call organization in the country, and its website lists physicians in the academy by state and locality,” he says. “There are also hundreds of organizations that provide services to the elderly and many of them know physicians in the area that can do house calls.” Though there is a greater need for these physicians as more individuals prefer to age in place, Dappen says the options are

unfortunately limited in the Fairfax, Va., area. He and the medical team of doctalker have formed a transitional medical business model by emphasizing the doctor/patient relationship and making themselves available by phone 24/7 and performing house calls as requested. “More than 50 percent of the time, I can get you what you need immediately by phone,” says Dappen. “We’re creating a model where the doctor has the best information and can look things up instantly, whether it is a doctor you can consult, a lab you’d want to use, or the side effects of a drug.”
• Do you have a medical director and, if so, is the medical director present every day? • Are you Board-certified? “One of the easiest and most useful measurements of a physician is whether they are Board-certified,” says Dappen. “That way, you know they’re keeping up with their education and taking an exam every several years to remain certified.” If the physician answers "no" to any of these questions, however, you should consider calling your local Area Agency on Aging before letting the physician into your home.
Finding the Best Physician A higher quality of medical care results from good physicians who are well-supervised. With the following information, you can evaluate physicians specializing in house calls, so that you will be able to get the best physician possible to visit your home. To protect yourself and your family, it is vital to learn how to recognize poorlysupervised medical groups. The following questions are important to ask any physician offering to come to your home: • Is the physician who owns your medical group present every day at the local facility?
The AAHCP provides a list of its members and medical groups providing home care physician services as a public service. The listing is intended for informational purposes only. The AAHCP does not check the compliance of its members with licensing, billing or other regulatory requirements. It cannot attest to the qualifications and billing practices of individual physicians. Therefore, users should obtain information about licensure, qualifications and billing from the physicians and groups themselves.

working together
care managers and elder law attorneys partner to help clients n
by Buckley Fricker, J.D., CMC
Elder Law attorneys can handle all the legal needs of seniors and their families. Some Elder Law attorneys also act as a variety of agent-types, just like family members of clients. They can serve as Guardians, Conservators, POAs, and Trustees (hereafter simply known as “agents”). Sometimes the client’s family members are available to serve as agents, and do a great job. There are plenty of happily ever afters out there. Other times, though, there are no suitable family members available, either because there actually are none, or because they aren’t “suitable.” “Un-suitable” can result in a wide variety of scenarios, some of which are sadly comparable to either dark comedies or horror stories. Enter the Aging Life Care Manager also known as Care Managers or Geriatric Care Managers (GCMs). Aging Life Care Man-
agers are professional guides and advocates for families who are caring for older relatives or disabled adults. On the national level, these professionals are represented by the Aging Life Care Association.

edical supplies and equipment fall into two major categories. Medical supplies generally refers to products that are used to make patients more comfortable and need to be replenished on a regular basis. Durable medical equipment includes items that are long-lasting and are generally one-time purchases.
Medical Supplies Medical supply products help individuals cope with and manage the symptoms of illness or old age. Products include specially adapted socks and stockings, skin care products and other helpful items. Daily living aids are also available to help individuals who need assistance dressing or taking medication. Home health monitors and specialized in-home tests let patients track everything from blood pressure to heart rate. Durable Medical Equipment Durable medical equipment includes items that help elderly or disabled individuals maintain mobility and/or
receive necessary care in the comfort of their homes. Durable medical equipment products can be broken into two major categories: mobility products and care assistance products. Mobility products include a wide range of highly advanced equipment to help individuals get around. Scooters are available in a range of styles to meet individualized needs. Many individuals find outdoor mobility challenging and are searching for a personal mobility vehicle that can help them continue to participate in activities. Lift chairs are another popular mobility product that provide assistance with moving from a sitting to a standing position. Stair lifts allow individuals to move from one level of their home to another with ease, eliminating the dangerous task of climbing and descending stairs. A wide array of wheelchairs, walkers, and canes are also available to help those with mobility assistance needs. Care assistance products include hospital-style beds, equipment to help with transferring and specially formulated mattresses. All of these products are es-

pecially important for individuals who wish to remain in the home environment. Paying for Supplies & Equipment Medicare helps pay the costs for durable medical equipment. According to Medicare, to be covered “items must be reusable, such as walkers, wheelchairs, or hospital beds.” Durable medical equipment for home health services is paid for under both Medicare Part B and Part A. Medicare coverage varies, and some equipment must be rented. Coverage by private insurance for durable medical equipment will vary greatly depending on the company and the policy. Coverage for medical supplies by both Medicare and private insurance will depend on the products required and doctors’ recommendations. Finding a Provider Individuals should be comfortable with the professionalism and reliability of the company. Request specific information about costs and product delivery time frames. Consumers should also be aware of any warranties.

Making A SAFER HOME for Seniors
NON-SKID RUGS Remove throw rugs, use rubber backing or apply double-faced adhesive carpet tape to the backs of all area rugs and runners to prevent slipping. REVIEW MEDICATIONS 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.

ou often hear home remodeling companies tout that they can offer “simple solutions” to your remodeling challenges. But what happens when the solutions aren’t so simple? Such was the case for Kathleen Tevnan of Bethesda, MD. Many homes are not built to accommodate disabilities or people becoming less mobile as they age. After a car accident left her wheelchair bound, Kathleen found this to be the case with her 1938 center staircase colonial home. She and her husband decided to hire a contractor to make some basic accessibility modifications. But even after The master bathroom in Kathleen Tevnan’s home was designed to be both adding a chair lift inside, allowing for access accessible and aesthetically pleasing. to the second floor, and a ground level lift outside, Kathleen still found that she was not knowledgeable about the ins and outs of able to use her home in the way that she was making a mobile and accessible home and that accustomed.

ndividuals who have served their country in the armed forces are eligible for a wide array of benefits through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). These benefits include health care services ranging from routine screenings and check-ups to long-term care. Additional benefits are also available for aging Veterans. Qualification and Enrollment Any individual who served in the active military, naval or air service and was discharged under any condition other than dishonorable may qualify for VA health care benefits. Members of the Reserves or National Guard who were called to active duty, other than for training, and completed the full duty requirement may also be eligible for health care.
Veterans who enlisted after September 7, 1980, must have served 24 continuous months or the full period for which they were called. However, there are exceptions to the minimum duty requirements, including early discharge for disability and other special circumstances. All Veterans are encouraged to enroll with the VA to determine their eligibility for benefits. Only by enrolling in the VA health care system can Veterans guarantee that comprehensive services will be available when and where they are needed. The VA’s enrollment system is based on priority groups. Congress determines the VA’s funding annually, which impacts the number of Veterans who can be enrolled in the health care program. The VA classifies Veterans into priority groups to ensure that limited funds
are provided to higher priority Veterans first. Priority groups range from 1-8, with 1 being the highest priority. Group 1 includes Veterans who are more than 50 percent disabled, while Group 8 is made up of individuals who are not rated as disabled and who have incomes above the VA national threshold. Individuals in lower priority groups often have to pay copays for care and services. Once a Veteran’s eligibility is verified, they will be assigned a priority group. If an individual is eligible for more than one priority group, the VA will place them in the highest group for which they are eligible. Long-Term Care Benefits In addition to preventative, health maintenance and emergency care, VA Continued on page 62

benefits may also provide for long-term care in some instances. Long-term care benefits include assistance that is provided for an extended period of time to help Veterans with everyday tasks and/ or provide support for managing an ongoing illness. Long-term care, as defined by the VA, may be provided in a person’s home, a community site, residential setting, or nursing home. Eligibility for services covered by the VA are determined based on a Veteran’s need for ongoing treatment, service availability in their area, financial eligibility, priority group status and insurance coverage. Longterm care services may also be covered though Medicare, Medicaid, insurance or private funds. In some instances, Veterans may be able to use the Aid and Attendance Allowance to cover needed long-term care. The Aid and Attendance Allowance is an additional monthly monetary benefit
provided by the VA for certain Veterans who receive a pension. To be eligible, Veterans must: • Require the help of another person for everyday personal care needs (such as bathing, dressing, or toileting); or • Be bedridden; or • Live in a nursing home and be physically or mentally incapacitated; or • Have poor eyesight (5/200 corrected visual acuity or less in both eyes). The VA also offers a Housebound Allowance to certain eligible Veterans who are restricted to their residence because of a permanent disability. This additional monthly monetary benefit can be used to help pay for needed care services provided in the Veteran’s home. To apply for either the Aid and Attendance or Housebound benefits, Veterans must send a written statement, including a report from their doctor documenting the need for services, to their Veterans Benefits Administration regional office.

active adult communities keep residents moving
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 maintenance-free yards. This way, residents can spend more time filling their schedules with favorite 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. When researching active adult communities, you can start by requesting an information packet from every option you
Featured on Page
Active Adult communities, also known as leisure communities, are populated with adults who have come to live there by choice 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. 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. These communities are residences full of options, and most of the costs are included in the living fees. They are ideal for

are considering. Make sure to read them carefully, and keep them all organized in a folder or file cabinet. Once you’ve narrowed down your options by perusing the brochures, schedule visits 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. 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 shortterm 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 longterm 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.

hen Ashby Ponds resident Russell Langelle turned 93 years young in October, his daughter and son-in-law presented him with an unforgettable gift. Langelle was given the gift of flight in the very same aircraft model he flew during WWII as a Navy pilot and primary flight instructor. With the oversight of a copilot, he spent nearly an hour in the air performing acrobatics he had learned over 70 years ago. Arriving at the Warrenton–Fauquier Airport, Langelle saw a shiny, newly rebuilt Stearman biplane, with which he first became familiar during the 1940s. “I climbed into the cockpit, tightened the seat belts, and familiarized myself with the controls,” said Langelle. Langelle performed loops, spins, slow rolls, Immelman turns, and even a “falling leaf,” which requires pulling the aircraft

straight up, entering into a deliberate stall, and diving straight to the ground at approximately 200 mph to recover and pull
up before leveling out. “I have a heart full of memories which will be relived countless times,” said Langelle. This experience was a repeat of the birthday present he received 20 years ago in 1995; that was the last time Langelle had piloted an aircraft prior to his flight in October. Langelle served in the Navy during both WWII and the Korean War. He retired with the rank of Commander after 20 years of service. Following his Naval service, Langelle spent his career as a foreign service security officer, working in that capacity both nationally and internationally. Langelle was born in St. Louis and spent 20 years there prior to his Naval service. During his service, he made Arlington, Virginia, his home base, and has lived in the northern Virginia area since that time. Now, he lives at Ashby Ponds retirement community in Ashburn.

HOW TO
live independently
communities offer security with no home maintenance
T
he more years you put behind you, the more worries you may have about continuing to maintain your home. When you do not need medical supervision, but feel like washing your hands of endless home-related tasks, independent living is an option that can help. What is Independent Living? 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 secu-

rity — an important consideration for many residents. Most independent living communities are fully secured, with staff members greeting and screening all visitors around the clock. Residents can leave home for extended periods of time knowing that their living quarters will be safe. As many individuals at this stage in their lives are looking to pursue new hobbies and interests with their free time, the activities and amenities available at a community are a major factor for potential residents. Several independent living communities provide a full range of activities such as shopping trips, outings to cultural events and organized gatherings that promote

socialization. Some communities also have tennis courts, swimming pools, activity rooms and other amenities that keep residents active and engaged. 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 skilled nursing/rehabilitation facilities), but some independent living communities are affiliated with health care facilities that can provide such care when it is needed. Residents also have the option of purchasing home health care services from outside providers to whom they may have grown accustomed.

Assisted Living
HOW TO
choose assisted living
Assisted Living 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 assisted living communities. The Assisted Living Federation of America (ALFA) notes that assisted living is “a unique transition from independent living without care” that “helps seniors enjoy an improved quality of life with independence and care combined.” Community amenities vary widely but can include private units, state-of-the-art facilities, beautifully decorated common areas, barber shops and beauty parlors, pharmacies, physical therapy services, recreation rooms, libraries, gardening areas, and fitness centers. Consumers will quickly find that assisted living communities, also commonly called residential care facilities or

Enjoy the Carefree Lifestyle You Deserve
D
iscover why many people like you have come to call the Hermitage home—the chance to experience a new lifestyle with an array of services and amenities. The residents at the Hermitage stay busy. Just ask Helena Scott, who was confined to wheelchair for 30 years because of Multiple Sclerosis and with regular physical therapy at the Hermitage, can now walk a mile a day when the weather permits. In her spare time, Helena knits scarves for fellow residents, volunteers in the beauty salon, sits on the Health Center Committee and delivers mail. Our residents also rave about our superb dining service, our courteous and helpful staff, and an overall feeling of caring and security that comes with living at the Hermitage. You’ll also gain peace of mind knowing that health care and supportive services are available right here, if you ever need them.

Assisted Living
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 pro-
Chain Bridge Road
grams.” 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 Continued on page 94

be a balanced caregiver
HOW TO n
Jody Gastfriend, LICSW
Caring for a parent, grandparent, spouse or loved one has its challenges and rewards. It can be gratifying as well as frustrating, with no clear roadmap on how to proceed. More than 65 million people in the United States care for a parent or disabled adult, and of those caregivers, more than a third still have minor children living at home. Middle-aged adults may find
themselves sandwiched between limit testing teenagers, pushing for more independence, and aging parents, who want to hold onto the independence they still have. Is there a way for caregivers, whether you are a daughter, son, spouse or partner, to juggle it all without feeling depleted and guilt-ridden? The answer is yes, but it takes time, patience, forethought and compassion – for
yourself as well as everyone else. Sometimes, the best thing a caregiver can do is to take a step back, breathe deeply and evaluate their routine. Consider how caregiving rituals can be handled more effectively, without abandoning career, family and other aspects of life. Here are few things to consider: Continued on page 100

on subsidies and other payment assistance programs. Long-term care insurance policies provide another financing option for assisted living. Most of these policies will cover the costs of assisted living. Some of the costs of assisted living are also reimbursable through individual health insurance policies. While there are other payment options available, the vast majority of assisted living/personal care costs are covered through private payments by
residents and families. The nationwide average cost for an assisted living/ personal care residence varies widely depending on the location and the facility amenities. However, there are affordable or subsidized options available in most areas. Individuals should investigate all available payment sources and obtain specific information on standard rates and fees for additional services before choosing an assisted living community. Financial and insurance experts can provide more detailed information about all the available payment sources.
Area Agencies on Aging can provide information on subsidies and other payment assistance programs for assisted living/personal care.

Assisted Living
assisted living service plans According to the Consumer Consortium on Assisted Living (CCAL), a resident service plan is a blueprint for care that describes needs, likes and preferences and the specific manner in which this care will be delivered. Prepared thoroughly and thoughtfully, the service plan can help a resident achieve their highest level of function and quality of life. The service plan uses an interdisciplinary approach and includes the resident, the family if the resident wishes, the facility nurse and resident service coordinator, and may also include the
activity and dining directors. Many states require that assisted living facilities prepare service plans for each resident. Even if the state does not require it, a well run facility will use them. CCAL recommends that service plans be reevaluated every six months or anytime there is a significant change in a resident’s health status, including a hospitalization. For more information, visit the Consumer Consortium on Assisted Living website at www.ccal.org

AssiSted Living
What is Person-Centered Living? The non-profit national advocacy organization previously known as the Consumer Consortium on Assisted Living (CCAL) is now known as CCAL-Advancing Person-Centered Living. They helped coin the term “person-centered living” that is now commonly heard in the assisted living and personal care field. While the term may be familiar to professionals, it may still be confusing to consumers who are just beginning to investigate assisted living/personal care options. So what is person-centered living? CCAL coined the term person-centered living (PCL) as a reminder that as people grow older or have disabilities they should not experience a loss of humanity or choice regardless of where they live. PCL means living as one chooses to. PCL is based on humanistic beliefs that every individual has a unique background, human experience, and the right to determine how to live his/her own life. PCL is also relationship-based and focused on supporting the individual’s emotional, social, physical and spiritual well being (e.g., belonging, experiencing a continuation of self-worth, purpose, meaning, enjoyment, comfort and opportunities for growth).

Assisted Living
CCAL upholds the PCL principle, “Nothing About Me Without Me.” This simple phrase means that every elder and individual with a disability is provided choice, privacy, dignity, respect, independence and autonomy. Elders and individuals with disabilities have the right to determine their needs; decide how best to have those needs met; and give feedback about the quality and nature of the care, services and supports they receive. If support is needed, supports are centered on their personal preferences and values that honor their selfhood. A person-centered culture is nurturing, empowering and respectful, and it optimizes the well being of not only the elder and individual with a disability but also the family and larger caregiving and/or services and support network. Ultimately, person-centered living means being kind, respectful and sensitive to those being served and honoring their right to make their own choices, regardless of the setting.

In 1900, Americans aged 65 years or older accounted for about 4 percent of the total U.S. population; by 2050, experts expect that this number will increase to more than 20 percent. The expansion prompts plenty of hard questions. What are some common financial burdens faced by aging individuals, their families and caregivers? And what are some steps our health care system can take to alleviate those burdens? MPH@GW, the online MPH offered through the Milken Institute School of RISING OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS Public Health at the George Washington University, created Income levels for aging Americans are increasing, The Cost of Aging in America, but not as quickly as their medical bills. By 2040: an extensive infographic previewed here, to explore some of these issues. More Median annual out-of-pocket costs for Americans age 65 will nearly double: information is available at http:// publichealthonline.gwu.edu/ cost-of-aging/.

1. Have conversations early and often. Unless your loved ones are completely incapacitated, you must include them in discussions about their care and accommodations. Approach decision-making from a place of love and respect. Many caregivers get frustrated by their parent or grandparent’s resistance to help. But that resistance may be a need to exert some control, especially at a time when things feel out of control. If you can help them understand why you feel they need

a home health aide, a certain medical specialist, a safety-related home renovation or even a new domicile, you often get better participation in making the change. Rarely are plans made in just one conversation. It may be a series of conversations, lasting months or even years. Be patient and recognize that your loved one has the right to make decisions, even if you think they are bad ones. 2. Talk about money. Nobody likes to talk about money, but it simply must be done. When it comes to eldercare, finances determine options. Do your parents or grandparents have long-term care insurance? Do they have savings to liquidate or assets they’re willing to sell? (The family home may be nonnegotiable, but what about the car your senior relatives no longer drive?) What kind of care and services can they afford? Keep in mind that home care costs around $20/hour and Medicare doesn’t pay for long-term care in a nursing home—which averages over $80,000 a year. If you’ve been operating on the assumption that long-term decisions can be made “when the time comes,” you may be in for a harsh dose of reality. There’s no point in spinning your wheels, going over choices that just aren’t viable for your family. 3. Don’t try to do it all. In many cases, a nearby family member, perhaps you, will take on caretaking duties, thinking you can or should be able to handle it all. Plus, Mom really trusts and relies on you and wouldn’t feel comfortable with a stranger in the home. Things may go along fine for a while, but as the picture turns more complicated, you may quickly become overwhelmed and ineffective. Go ahead and step up if you’re the one who lives closest or has the most time or financial wherewithal to deal with an initial crisis. But then, assess the situation and quickly marshal your resources. Call a family meeting—via Skype, if need be—and find out what other family members are willing and able to do.
cation, prescribed exercises, nutritional supplements and other health related needs. There are websites that allow for information-sharing among family caregivers, which can be great. But a simple calendar or spreadsheet along with pre-filled pill boxes can also work. Make sure the system is user-friendly for all who will rely on it. Leave a spot for notes to indicate when medications must be refilled or supplies replenished. Keep in mind that most paid caregivers, unless they are nurses, are not allowed to administer medication—in other words, hand out pills. But caregivers can remind people to take their medication and this is often all that is needed. 5. Explore community resources. Finding a handicap-accessible transportation service to take your mom to the hairdresser or to visit friends can go a long way toward maintaining her mental and emotional well-being. If Mom can’t leave the house, look into religious organizations, senior centers and local areas on aging that offer home supports or social calls. If your senior feels isolated and needs more company, sometimes variety can spice up life. Many colleges and schools of social work have volunteer programs for students interested in aging studies. 6. Reassess your routine every two weeks. Or more often if conditions are changing rapidly. See what’s working and what isn’t. Talk to your parents and grandparents, spouse or partner— find out if they’re happy with the care they’re getting, or if they’d prefer more, less or different. Consider whether your loved one is still safe living at home and whether you feel their mental or physical condition warrants a change. And don’t be discouraged by setbacks, along with an occasional crisis or two. If you keep yourself grounded, tend to your own needs, and are open to support, you will be able to withstand the ups and downs of caregiving. And hopefully enjoy the journey as well.

Understanding Assisted Living in the District of Columbia and Maryland
District of Columbia: There are currently 16 licensed Assisted Living Residences in the District of Columbia. The District of Columbia Department of Health Regulation and Licensing defines an Assisted Living Residence, or ALR, as any entity, whether public or private, for profit or not for profit that combines housing, health, and personalized assistance, in accordance to individually-developed service plans, for the support of individuals who are not related to the owner or operator of the entity. An Assisted Living Residence does not include a group home for mentally retarded persons as defined in section 2(5) of the HealthCare and Community Residence Facility, Hospice and Home Care Licensure Act of 1983, or a mental health community residence facility as that term is used in Chapter 38 of Title 22 of the District of Columbia Municipal Regulations. Source: http://hrla.doh.dc.gov/hrla/
Maryland: In Maryland, an assisted living provider is defined as: A residential or facility-based provider that provides housing and supportive services, supervision, personalized
assistance, health-related services, or a combination of these services to meet the needs of residents who are unable to perform, or who need assistance in performing, the activities of daily living or instrumental activities of daily living, in a way that promotes optimum dignity and independence for the residents. (Code of Maryland Regulations 10.07.14.02B(10). There are a wide variety of assisted living providers in Maryland. They range from large, corporatemanaged facilities where hundreds of people live in their own apartments to small, private homes in which the owners provide services to two residents who may share a bedroom. What all of these providers have in common, however, is they all offer their residents some level of assistance with their daily activities, such as dressing, bathing and eating. Levels of Care Assisted living facilities in Maryland are licensed to provide up to three levels of care. The levels correspond with how much assistance residents need. Licensure at level one means the provider is authorized to take care of residents with low care needs. A level two license means the
provider can also take care of residents with moderate care needs, and a level three license allows a provider to care for residents with high-level care needs (as well as residents with low or moderate needs). If a person is mentally sharp, only takes medication for arthritis pain and only needs assistance with dressing and bathing, he or she would be classified as needing a low level of care. A person would need a high level of care if he or she is mentally confused by dementia; has a complicated list of powerful medicines that must be given at different times each day; and requires assistance with bathing, eating, walking, dressing and toileting. Such a person could only be accepted by a provider with a level three license. Most providers are licensed at level three, which means they can accept residents with low, moderate or high care needs. If individuals have a progressive condition and do not want to have to move repeatedly, they should look for a provider with a level three license even if they only need a low level of care now.

Assisted Living
Understanding Assisted Living in Virginia According to the Virginia Department of Social Services, Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs) are non-medical residential settings that provide or coordinate personal and health care services; 24-hour supervision; and assistance for the care of four or more adults who are aged, infirm or disabled. This care may be provided in one or more locations. Assisted living facilities are not nursing homes. A nursing home is a facility in which the primary function is the provision, on a continuing basis, of nursing services and health-related services for the treatment and inpatient care of two or more non-related individuals. Nursing homes are regulated by the Virginia Department of Health.
The New
Alzheimer’s Assisted Living Waiver The Alzheimer’s Assisted Living Waiver is available to individuals who are 55 years of age or older and who have a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s or a related dementia, but no diagnosis of a serious mental illness or mental retardation/ intellectual disability. In addition, the individual must be living in (or willing to move to) an assisted living facility instead of a nursing home, and also be receiving (or be eligible to receive) an Auxiliary Grant. If you think that you might qualify for the Alzheimer’s Assisted Living Waiver, contact your local Department
of Social Services or local health department. Virginia Department of Social Services (VDSS) 801 E. Main Street Richmond, VA 23219-2901 1-800-552-3431 (toll-free) or 804-7267000 www.dss.virginia.gov Virginia Department of Health 109 Governor Street Richmond, VA 23219 (804) 864-7001 www.vdh.virginia.gov

HOW TO
find residential living
a more close-knit way of life Assisted living homes with 15 or fewer residents are often called group homes or senior care residences. Many people seeking an assisted living environment for themselves or a family member have investigated these homes as an option along with larger assisted living communities. Most of these homes offer the same services as larger communities, except in a smaller and more intimate setting. Considering a group home when researching assisted living is an important step if your loved one would prefer a smaller, homelike environment. Some of these smaller homes specialize in care for Alzheimer’s disease or related memory impairments. Individuals and families get to know each staff member well and can enjoy participating in the preparation and serv-
ing of meals, housekeeping tasks, gardening, or other daily activities. Food is prepared in small quantities, and residents are encouraged to help. Group homes are usually nestled into neighborhoods, indistinguishable from other surrounding properties. Though regulations governing these homes differ among regions, a variety of agencies (county health departments, social services, long-term care ombudsmen) in most counties and cities provide significant monitoring of homes with four or more beds. Small assisted living facilities allow As with any community, it is impor- residents to maintain independence. tant to visit the homes to talk with staff as well as the current residents and their For more information, a comprehensive families.

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 lifechanging event. These homes serve as permanent residences for individuals who are too sick or frail to live at home or as temporary

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 the nursing home.
n
Be available the entire day of admission to help settle the resident and provide support.

paying for nursing home care Nursing home care can be expensive. There are many ways you can pay for nursing home care. For example, you can use your own money, you may be able to get help from your state, or you may use long-term care insurance. Most people who enter nursing homes begin by paying for their care out-of-pocket. As you use your resources (like bank accounts and stocks) over a period of time, you may eventually become eligible for Medicaid.
Will Medicare pay for nursing home care? Medicare generally doesn’t cover long-term care stays in a nursing home. Even if it doesn’t cover nursing home care, you’ll need health coverage for hospital care, doctor services, and medical supplies while you’re in the nursing home. Part A covers skilled care provided in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) under certain conditions for a limited time.
Tell them you saw it in the SourceBook
■
Skilled care is nursing and therapy care that can only be safely and effectively performed by, or under the supervision of, professionals or technical personnel. It’s health care given when you need skilled nursing or skilled therapies to treat, manage, and observe your condition, and evaluate your care. Medicare covers certain daily skilled care services on a short-term basis (up to 100 days in a benefit period). For more information Continued on page 126

on Medicare’s coverage of SNF care, visit Medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). Personal resources You can use your personal money and savings to pay for nursing home care. Some insurance companies let you use your life insurance policy to pay for long-term care. Ask your insurance agent how this works. Important: Be sure to get help before using either of these options. There are important issues you need to understand. Help from your state (Medicaid) Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that helps with medical costs for some people with limited income and resources. Most health care costs are covered if you qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. Most, but not all, nursing homes accept Medicaid payment. Even if you pay out-of-
pocket or with long-term care insurance, you eventually may “spend down” your assets while you’re at the nursing home, so it’s good to know whether the home will accept Medicaid. Check with the nursing home to see if they accept people with Medicaid. Medicaid programs vary state to state. Most often, eligibility is based on your income and personal resources. Many states have higher Medicaid income limits for nursing home residents. You may be eligible for Medicaid coverage in a nursing home even if you haven’t qualified for other Medicaid services in the past. Sometimes you won’t be eligible for Medicaid until you’ve spent some of your personal resources on health care. Generally, even if you’re eligible for Medicaid, all of your income (except for a monthly personal needs allowance and amounts considered necessary to support your spouse and family living in the community) will go to pay your nursing home expenses and Medicaid will cover the rest.

HOW TO
solve long-term care issues
an ombudsman can help
The word “Ombudsman” is a Swedish term for a person who acts as a third party in resolving problems. A Long-Term Care Ombudsman can assist consumers who are choosing long-term care providers (nursing facilities, assisted living facilities, retirement communities, adult day care programs and home care agencies) by offering information on an individual provider’s services, history of complaints and their licensure status. Ombudsmen are advocates who work to improve the quality of life for seniors and other individuals receiving longterm care services. In addition to providing the information necessary to make an informed decision about a long-term care provider, an Ombudsman can also investigate and help resolve complaints Continued on page 128

against specific long-term care providers. Utilizing volunteers, an Ombudsman can arrange for weekly visits to a long-term care facility. The overall goal of an Ombudsman is to educate the community at large about long-term care issues while simultaneously helping to train the staff of longterm care providers. An Ombudsman can inform consumers of their rights and long-term care providers of their responsibilities.
What Can an Ombudsman Do? An Ombudsman can formally address complaints and concerns. The Ombudsman strives to empower the resident first and then intervene as needed. They can assist through counseling, formal complaint investigation and negotiation. The counseling received from an Ombudsman is strictly confidential and can help individuals become an advocate for themselves or a loved one. An Ombudsman will listen to complaints and then offer information and referrals via the telephone, email or at an in-person visit to a long-term care facility.
If the concern requires a formal investigation, the Ombudsman will act as an advocate on behalf of the long-term care recipient during this investigation. He/ she will gather facts and relevant information to determine whether the complaint is valid. Then the Ombudsman will work with the long-term care recipient or their representative and the provider to determine the appropriate course to resolve the problem. This article was adapted from www.fairfaxcounty.gov/ltcombudsman, which explains the Northern Virginia LongTerm Care Ombudsman Program in detail.

best design practices for dementia care facilities Perkins Eastman Research Collaborative and the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA) recently published a white paper, “Excellence in Design: Optimal Living Space for People With Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias.” Release of this report comes as incidence of Alzheimer’s disease is escalating nationwide. Currently, it is estimated that more than 5 million Americans are living with the brain disorder, and that number is expected to triple by mid-century. Together, Perkins Eastman and the AFA developed “Excellence in Design” with the goal of fostering a continuous dialogue within the architectural and interior design community, as well as the long-term care industry about how best to design supportive and therapeutic residential settings for the dementia population. AFA originally approached Perkins Eastman to explore the intersection of dementia care and forward-thinking
senior housing design. The resulting report illustrates how experts’ evolved understanding of the disease has inspired the design of flexible facilities with firstrate amenities and high-quality, personcentered care that allow individuals to live comfortably and with dignity. “Excellence in Design” offers step-bystep guidelines to enhance the physical environment to support a person’s remaining abilities and provide a safe, supportive, enriching, empowering and person-centered care setting. The report also details all aspects of an environment’s impact on daily living. “Everyone wants—and deserves—a supportive place he or she can call home,” says Emily Chmielewski EDAC, an Associate with Perkins Eastman and the report’s author. “Our goal in developing this report was to present a philosophy of both care and design that will help change the long-term care landscape to meet the needs of residents, their families and professional caregivers.” According to Carol Steinberg, AFA’s Tell them you saw it in the SourceBook

president and a key contributor to the report, “We are enormously grateful to the Perkins Eastman team for taking on this important project. Where and how people with dementia live is an essential conversation, from medical, economic, social and practical perspectives.” Steinberg continues, “In the absence of a cure for Alzheimer’s disease, care is critical. This report presents practical building blocks for improving the overall care experience both for residents and their families.” The full report is available online: http://www.alzfdn.org/documents/ ExcellenceinDesign_Report.pdf. The Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (www.alzfdn.org) is a national non-profit organization that unites more than 1,700 member organizations nationwide with the goal of providing optimal care and services to individuals confronting dementia, and to their caregivers and families. Perkins Eastman is among the top design and architecture firms in the world.

HOW TO
choose alzheimer’s care
a special care residence may be the right option Certification standards for nursing homes and adult care residences do not specifically address special care units. 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 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. Researching special care residences can ensure your loved one will receive the proper support he/she needs.

know symptoms of alzheimer’s
the alzheimer’s association provides the common signs
Memory loss that disrupts daily life is not a typical part of aging. It may be a symptom of Alzheimer’s, a fatal brain disease that causes a slow decline in memory, thinking and reasoning skills. Every individual may experience one or more of these signs in different degrees. If you notice any of them, it is recommended you see a doctor.
1. Memory loss that disrupts daily life One of the most common signs of Alzheimer’s is memory loss, especially forgetting recently learned information. Others include forgetting important dates or events; asking for the same information over and over; and relying on memory aides (e.g., reminder notes or electronic devices) or family members for things they used to handle on their own.

alzheimer’s: the facts and figures
alzheimer’s association report sheds new light on scope of disease According to the 2013 Alzheimer’s Disease Facts and Figures report, one in three seniors dies with Alzheimer’s or another dementia in the United States. The report shows that while deaths from other major diseases, such as heart disease, HIV/AIDS and stroke, continue to experience significant declines, Alzheimer’s deaths continue to rise – increasing 68 percent from 2000-2010. “Unfortunately, today there are no Alzheimer’s survivors. If you have Alzheimer’s disease, you either die from it or die with it,” said Harry Johns, president and CEO of the Alzheimer’s Association. “Now we know that one in three seniors dies with Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia. Urgent, meaningful action is necessary, particularly as more and more
ENGAGING
people age into greater risk for developing a disease that today has no cure and no way to slow or stop its progression.” Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States and is the only leading cause of death without a way to prevent, cure or even slow its progression. Based on 2010 data, Alzheimer’s was reported as the underlying cause of death for 83,494 individuals – individuals who died from Alzheimer’s. Alzheimer’s Association 2013 Facts and Figures reveals that in 2013 an estimated 450,000 people in the United States will die with Alzheimer’s. The true number of deaths caused by Alzheimer’s is likely to be somewhere between the officially reported number of those dying from and those dying with Alzheimer’s.
THRIVING
Human and Financial Toll of Alzheimer’s More than 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease. Without the development of medical breakthroughs that prevent, slow or stop the disease, by 2050, the number of people with Alzheimer’s disease could reach 13.8 million. Previous estimates suggest that number could be high as 16 million. Alzheimer’s and dementia place an enormous burden on individuals and families. In 2012, there were more than 15 million caregivers who provided more than 17 billion hours of unpaid care valued at $216 billion. Individuals with dementia often require increasing levels of supervision and personal care as the disease progresses. As symptoms exac-

erbate as the disease progresses, the high levels of care required by family members and friends can often result in increased emotional stress and health challenges for caregivers. Due to the physical and emotional toll of caregiving, Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers had $9.1 billion in additional health care costs of their own in 2012. The burden on the nation’s health care system and government programs is also enormous. According to Alzheimer’s Association 2013 Facts and Figures, the total payments for health and long-term care services for people with Alzheimer’s and other dementias will total $203 billion in 2013, the lion’s share of which will be borne by Medicare and Medicaid with combined costs of $142 billion. Despite these staggering figures today, by 2050 total costs will increase 500 percent to $1.2 trillion. “Alzheimer’s disease steals everything — steadily, relentlessly, inevitably.

find hospice care A patient and family may turn to hospice care when the goals of patient care have switched from curing to comforting. Hospice involves a special system of supportive services, including pain and symptom management, social services, and emotional and spiritual support. Any individual of any age with a diagnosis of a terminal disease may turn to hospice.
als and volunteers work to serve the special needs of everyone involved. Choice is at the center of the hospice approach — a person faced with a life-limiting illness is encouraged to remain in control of his or her life. As care is usually provided in one’s home, many hospice patients live out their lives in the comfort of familiar daily routines, surrounded by their treasured possessions along with family and friends.

Most services are fully or partially covered by Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers or prepaid health plans. The nonmedical services available in Montgomery County are free and delivered by a staff of trained volunteers. For traditional hospice services, financial assistance is available.

Finding a Support Group Many grieving people wonder if they would benefit from joining a support group. Support groups are a time-tested method of help for people struggling with all sorts of difficulties. But groups are not magic: there are no words that can be uttered within a group setting that can make grief disappear.
Will a support group help? Groups are places to work together to support one another; they are places where everyone gives and takes. Not everyone will find a support group suitable; each individual grieves in his or her own way. For many, however, support groups have much to offer, such as: Validation: Grief is experienced in so many ways -- physical, emotional, and spiritual. One needs a place to recognize that these reactions are part of the journey of grief. Being with other grieving people can reaffirm that one is not going crazy. While every loss is unique, through support groups one can bask in the support of others who have experienced loss and understand. Time away: For many people, their support group can be a break in the loneliness and the boredom that often come with grief. Suggestions for coping: There is no one solution to dealing with loss; members of a support groups can offer a range of alternatives. By listening to stories of how others cope with a particular problem, one can find the solution that might work best. Support groups offer two other gifts. They provide hope by providing models that reaffirm that one can survive loss. Participating in a support group can also help the griever find new empathy, new understandings, and renewed strength.
How to find a group Most hospices provide grief support groups, even to those who didn’t use hospice services. Funeral homes, hospitals, and places of worship will also have grief support resources and may be able to point to a support group. There are also national grief support organizations with local chapters that host support groups.

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

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, housekeeping, 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.

understanding telemedicine a game changer for Senior Health Care
L
arry, a 72-year-old retirement home resident with high blood pressure, is experiencing a host of unpleasant side effects with his latest medication. Through a brief twoway video call, Larry consults with his regular physician, who writes him a new prescription. Going forward, he and his doctor chat weekly via video teleconference to make sure he is adjusting well to the new drug. This regular, personalized interaction allows Larry to get the monitoring he needs while avoiding the hassle of weekly doctor visits. Although the story above is fictitious, scenarios just like this are happening all across the nation in growing frequency. While health care for retirees once meant repeated trips to the doctor’s office, many are now able to receive high-
quality medical services without leaving Beyond offering convenience for both the comfort of home. And it’s all because patients and caregivers, telemedicine of telemedicine. has a number of compelling advantages: What is telemedicine? Telemedicine (or “telehealth”) is described as “the use of medical information exchanged from one site to another via electronic communications to improve a patient’s clinical health status.” This high-tech patient care model is quickly gaining traction as a means for lowering costs while improving health care quality — particularly among aging populations. The benefits The objective of telemedicine is to create a distance health care experience that mirrors the quality and comprehensiveness of a traditional office visit.
Less waiting and faster response. For retirees with health issues — and their caregivers, who are often pressed for time — long waits in physician offices can be excruciating. Telemedicine eliminates waiting room tedium and enables more timely response from health care professionals through email, text message, and other electronic channels. Lower costs. Many doctors actually charge less for a telehealth consultation than they do for an in-person visit. What’s more, telehealth can reduce costs associated with travel and provide easier access to medi-

One study determined that telemedicine could collectively save U.S. nursing homes $479 million annually by reducing transportation costs related to in-person physician office visits. Reduced hospital readmissions. The University of Virginia Medical Center in Charlottesville created a telehealth program that combines real-time data with remote patient monitoring (RPM) for those discharged with heart failure, pneumonia, COPD, a recent heart attack, or a hip or knee replacement. When nurses are alerted to any problems via the monitoring system, they contact the patient by phone or, if needed, make an in-home visit. Only a year after instituting the program, the facility saw a reduction in its 30-day readmission to about 10 percent, in contrast with the national average of 17.5 percent.

T
he world of technology is exploding with options that could allow seniors and baby boomers to live in their homes longer. So why aren’t they all taking advantage of available technologies? The simple answer is because most of the people who would benefit from these technologies are unaware that they exist. We are all familiar with the “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” commercial advertising wearable pendants that can be pressed when a person needs help. But there is so much more available today. There are currently devices available that can visually and audibly alert individuals when it is time to take their medication. Given the fact that approximately 40 percent of nursing home admissions are the result of individuals being unable to take medication without supervision, these devices can help more seniors re-
main at home. Sold in varying shapes and sizes, holding large to small pills, medication management devices can beep, flash, and text patients and caregivers when it is time to take a medication or text when a medication is missed. They can be purchased with monthly services to allow distant caregivers the ability to manage medications. Devices range from $299.00 to $999.00. Tracking devices are also available that allow people to be found quickly if they wander. These tracking devices can be worn as watches, placed in a shoe as an insert, worn on a belt or worn around the neck as a pendant. According to the Montgomery County Police – Project Lifesaver, it is imperative that an individual is found quickly, because for each moment lost, the search grid expands to a size that makes it almost impossible for individuals to be found. With that in mind, when choosing a tracking device, it is important to know
how soon the device will notify caregivers the person is wandering. Very few of the devices currently on the market can give an exact location. Newer models also include two-way voice communication. The assistive technology market also includes devices that can monitor health, sleep patterns and movement in the house. House sensors can monitor water leakage, movement in the bathroom, movement in and out of a bed or a chair, as well as the opening and closing of cabinets or doors. Finally, there are sensors that can turn off appliances if there has been no movement in a certain amount of time. Using the power of new technologies, caregivers can provide independent, safe living environments for their parents or other loved ones and still have peace of mind. By working with loved ones and professionals, seniors can easily create secure environments where they can age in place.

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 Medicare-certified 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 in-
formation 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 a limited number of skilled home visits. Costs for these services vary greatly depending upon coverage by Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance. Contact your local Office on Aging or State Department of Health to find out if there are funds from social services block grants available to cover home care costs.
Individuals who meet income requirements may be eligible to receive skilled nursing services through Medicaid.

Generally speaking, you can delay enrolling in Part B (and not enroll during your Initial Enrollment Period (IEP)) without incurring a late-enrollment penalty if you are still working or your spouse is still working and you have insurance from that work. Before delaying Part B enrollment, there are a few things you should consider. The first is how and when you will sign

This enrollment period allows beneficiaries who delay Medicare enrollment while they are covered by their or their spouse’s current employer insurance to enroll later. You will not have to wait for the General Enrollment Period (GEP) that runs from January through March, and you will not have a penalty for delaying enrollment. Your SEP runs from now through eight months after the month in which you stop working, or your insurance ends, whichever comes first. The next thing you should consider is how Medicare will work with your current employer insurance. When someone has Medicare and an employer group health plan, Medicare either pays first or second in coordination with the employer plan.
current employer insurance if your company has 20 or more employees. This means that your employer insurance will pay first on health care claims, and then Medicare may pick up some or all of the remaining costs. If this is the case, you can delay Part B without creating a gap in coverage.

Delaying Part B enrollment involves making sure you can enroll in Part B later without a penalty or gap in coverage.

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

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

Selecting a Home Care Provider: A Checklist Before hiring a home care provider, you will want to learn more about their services, reputation and track record. The questions below will help you have productive conversations with providers and their professional references. How long has this provider been serving the community? Does this provider supply literature explaining its services, eligibility requirements, fees and funding sources? Many providers furnish patients with a detailed “Patient Bill of Rights” that outlines the rights and responsibilities of the providers, patients and caregivers. n How does this provider select and train its employees? Does it protect its workers with written personnel policies, benefits packages and malpractice insurance? n Are nurses or therapists required to evaluate the patient’s home care needs? If so, what does this entail? Do they consult the patient’s physicians and family members? n Does this provider include the patient and his or her family members in developing the plan of care? Are they involved in making care plan changes? n Is the patient’s course of treatment documented, detailing the specific tasks to be carried out by each professional caregiver? Does this provider take time to educate family members on the care being administered to the patient? n Does this provider assign supervisors to oversee the quality of care patients are receiving in their homes? If so, how often do these individuals make visits? Who can the patient and his or her family members call with questions or complaints? How does the agency follow up on and resolve problems? n What are the financial procedures of this provider? Does the provider furnish written statements explaining all of the costs and payment plan options associated with home care? n What procedures does this provider have in place to handle emergencies? Are its caregivers available 24 hours a day, seven days a week? n How does this provider ensure patient confidentiality? n n

overnment agencies are an invaluable resource and can serve as clearinghouses for much needed information and provide a vital connection to programs and services. The Older Americans Act (OAA) of 1965 created the Administration on Aging (AoA), an agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and a national network of agencies that promote and protect the health and well-being of older adults. Amendments to the OAA provided grants to Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs), giving them the resources to identify local needs and plan and fund local programs. The Department of Health & Human Services describes this comprehensive network as the National Aging Network. The

R e a l-L i f e Story
C
harles Doerrler grew up in Erie, Pennsylvania. He lived in the area for many years before moving to the Washington, D.C., region to work as a government contractor. Growing up near Lake Erie, Charles was actively involved in water sports. He even spent time scuba diving in the Lake. He also took an early interest in hypnosis. After teaching himself the technique, he would hypnotize his friends for fun. When Charles was only 15 years old, his father passed away. Following his father’s death, Charles immediately began working to put himself through school. He graduated from nearby Gannon College in 1961 with a degree in Business Administration and a minor in Finance. Several years after graduating, Charles married Kay, who worked as a bookkeeper. The couple went on to have three children: Bob, Sally and Bill. Charles spent much of his children’s young lives attending

their sporting events and other activities. The family also enjoyed many wonderful vacations, including frequent trips to Hershey Park. Prior to retiring in 2002, Charles enjoyed a long and successful career as a government contractor with the highest

planning for the care you need at home
I n
by Phyllis Mensh Brostoff, CISW, CMC, Aging Life Care AssociationTM Member, Fellow of the Leadership Academy
f you took a poll of older adults and asked each person if they wanted to remain in their own home until the end of their life, most people would say, “of course.” That is a wonderful goal, which often takes a lot of sound planning to be successful. Anything can get in the way—accidents, illness, lack of energy, declining physical abilities—of achieving your desired independence. It is hard to give up even a little autonomy, but asking for assistance can help keep you where you want to be—in your own home.
What if You Become Homebound?
If you are recovering from an acute illness, you may be eligible for home health services that are paid for by the Medicare program. An Aging Life Care Manager™ can help you access licensed home health services by facilitating a conversation with your physician about your need for skilled nursing services, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and/or speech therapy in your home. This is an important conversation to have with your doctor and discharge planner if you are in the hospital or a nursing facility and need to decide on and plan for services in your home once you are discharged. However, Medicare will only pay for these services if you are “homebound.” Homebound is defined as only leaving your home for “medical treatment or short, infrequent absences for non-medical reasons, like attending religious services.”
You may also receive help from a home health aide under the supervision of a professional nurse or therapist. A physical or occupational therapist can evaluate your home and recommend equipment (such as guard bars in the bathroom) that will improve your safety.
Accessing services
These services must be obtained from a state licensed home health agency certified to provide Medicare-reimbursed services. They may be freestanding agencies, or they may be part of a large, hospital-based organization. Licensed home health services are usually time-limited, ending when you have met the goals of treatment and the need for the skilled care has ended. If you have enrolled in a Medicare Advantage program, you may also have access to additional services such as home visits after a hospitalization.
Other Home Care Services
Many other care services are provided in the home but are not licensed or paid for by Medicare. An Aging Life Care Manager can help you understand what they can offer, access reputable services, and monitor them on an on-going basis.
Non-Medical Aides, Companions and Homemakers
There are many types of paid care giving services available—often called non-
medical aides, companions and homemakers—who many people hire privately. If you do, you or your family should check at least two work-related references, develop a specific set of tasks and expectations for the caregiver, arrange to pay all appropriate taxes, and have the required insurance coverage. Caregiver services can also be arranged through an agency. While this may cost more per hour than hiring an aide yourself, hiring an agency assures you of coverage when the aide is sick, on vacation or quits. The agency also carries liability insurance and is responsible for all employment taxes and employee bonding. An Aging Life Care Manager can help you find a reputable agency and get important questions answered, such as: do they check police and driver license records; do they provide supervision; how do they handle cancellations; and how long have they been in business? Phyllis Mensh Brostoff, CISW, CMC, is a social worker and co-founder of Stowell Associates – a care management and home care company in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She has written numerous articles and presented seminars across the country. More information is available at www. caremanagedhomecare.com.

Understanding Home-Based Care in Maryland
A
ccording to the Maryland Health Care Commission, “Home-Based Care can include a variety of activities such as nursing care, rehabilitation services (for example, physical therapy), assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), assistance with housekeeping, chores and meal preparation, or assistance with activities to maintain health, such as taking medications.” There are several types of agencies that provide home care services throughout Maryland.
Home Health Agencies
staff may provide care based on your needs. Home health agencies participate in the Medicare program and many health insurance programs include a home health benefit.
Nurse Referral Service Agencies (NRSA)
These agencies screen and refer licensed nurses, home health aides, homemakers, live-in caretakers, and companions for individuals needing help in their home. The person seeking assistance contracts directly with the individual who will provide the service and may pay the agency or the provider for services.
Home health agencies provide nurs- Residential Services ing services, home health aides and one Agencies (RSA) or more other services such as physical RSAs provide supportive home care therapy, occupational therapy or social services, that is, assistance with ADLs services. Several kinds of health care and/or housekeeping services. They
may provide one or more home care services, such as provision of oxygen or medical equipment, which includes wheelchairs, walkers and hospital beds. An RSA cannot participate in the Medicare Program; however, Level III RSAs can provide skilled nursing services. RSAs employ all their caregivers, while NRSAs do not. The person seeking assistance contracts with the agency. RSA services are sometimes paid for by the person using services, but are generally covered under long-term care insurance policies and may be paid through medical insurance in some circumstances.

Home Health Care & Services Understanding Home-Based Care in Virginia
I
n Virginia, home care organizations, certified home health agencies, and licensed and certified hospice programs are reviewed by the Virginia Department of Health Office of Licensure and Certification. There are several types of agencies in Virginia that provide these services. For individuals needing home-based care, it is important to first determine what type(s) of help you need to narrow your search of agencies and find one that will meet your specific needs. The following information from the Virginia Department of Health Office of Licensure and Certification provides a look at the different agencies and their state regulations.
Home Health Agencies
Home health agencies are public or private agencies, organizations or parts of agencies or organizations that meet the requirements for participation in Medicare under 42 CFR 440.70 (d). This indicates these federallycertified agencies provide skilled nursing services and at least one other therapeutic service, e.g. physical, speech or occupational therapy; medical social services; or home health aide services, and they also meet the capitalization requirements under 42 CFR 489.28. An agency may choose to be exempt from state licensure through certification in one of four ways: • The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO)
Certification; • Community Health Accreditation Program (CHAP) Certification; • Medicaid Personal Care Certification; • Medicaid/Medicare Certification. When trying to find a home health agency, ask for their license number. Be specific in asking for the license number issued by the Virginia Department of Health, and not the number for their license to operate a business.
Home Care Organization
The code of Virginia defines a home care organization (HCO) as “a public or private organization, whether operated for profit or not for profit, that provides, at the residence of a patient or individual in the Commonwealth of Virginia, one or more of the following services: 1) home health services, including services provided by or under direct supervision of any health care professional under a medical plan of care in a patient’s residence on a visit or hourly basis to patients who have or are at risk of injury, illness, or a disabling condition and require short-term or long-term interventions; 2) personal care services, including assistance in personal care to include activities of daily living provided in an individual’s residence on a visit or hourly basis to individuals who have or are at risk of illness, injury, or disabling condition; or 3) pharmaceutical services, including services provided in a patient’s residence, which include the dispensing and administration of a drug
or drugs, and parenteral nutritional support, associated patient instruction, and such other services as identified by the Board of Health by regulation.”
Companion Services
In Virginia, companion organizations can provide only chore, companion or homemaker services, in addition to any of the following, without the aforementioned licenses. Companion services can include providing non-routine home maintenance, along with assisting individuals unable to care for themselves with transportation, meal preparation, shopping, light housekeeping, companionship and household management. Also included is assistance with bathing areas the client cannot reach, fastening client’s clothing, combing hair, brushing dentures, shaving with an electric razor, and providing stabilization to a client while walking. Homemaker services, however, do not include feeding, bed baths, transferring, lifting, putting on braces or other supports, or cutting nails and shaving with a blade. Such services would need to be provided by a licensed HCO or HHA in Virginia.

HOW TO
find daytime supervision
centers provide socialization and peace of mind for caregivers
A
dult Day Centers are an important option for family caregivers, as they offer socialization, activities, and necessary supervision to those who are socially isolated or need care and assistance. Caregivers can feel confident that their loved one is safe and well cared for while they are at work or performing other necessary tasks. Centers offer a variety of programs and amenities, including exercise programs and a diverse schedule of engaging activities. Assistance with the activities of daily living, including eating, walking, toileting and medication management may also be available. Additionally, many centers offer physical, speech and occupational therapies to their participants. All licensed centers provide nutritious meals and snacks on a daily basis.
Choosing a Provider Information on local Adult Day Centers may 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
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 easyto-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.
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.
