25 years and counting
A
quarter of a century. Two and a half decades. No matter how you look at it, 25 years is a long time. That’s why I’m so proud to be celebrating the 25th anniversary of SourceBook this year. Twenty-five years ago today, I had the brand-new idea to create a comprehensive resource guide that listed every local option available for seniors and their loved ones. During the past 25 years, the entire senior living industry has radically evolved for the better and the amount of local options has exploded. Now, in addition to worldclass retirement communities, including Mercy Ridge, our cover story this issue, seniors can find specialized housing and services to meet their needs. This is exemplified in our feature stories on Peregrine’s Landing at Tudor Heights, a premier memory care community, and Visiting Angels, providers of care in the home. Seniors have access to a diverse array of professionals trained to meet their needs. For all these changes and so many others, SourceBook has been
along for the ride—documenting the evolution of an industry and promoting innovation at every step. Personally, I now proudly have a full head of gray hair. I also have the knowledge and understanding derived from 25 years of conversations with our readers, care providers and sponsors. While I often look back fondly at those early days, I certainly wouldn’t trade the wisdom I have gained over the years. I may not be moving as fast as I did back in 1990, but I am definitely moving smarter! Here’s to the wisdom that comes with growing older, to the joy of experiencing life, and to the incredible forum that has allowed me to share in the experiences of so many others! From promising idea to established publication, it has been a fun—and unbelievably informative— ride.

Making Connections By Christy Brudin
Residents enjoy many outdoor recreational opportunities, including walking paths, a putting green and a bocce court.
F
rom virtual links to old-fashioned friendships, people always find a way to bond. While the ties that bind can be very different, the results are remarkably similar: lasting connections. For the residents of one local retirement community, making these enduring connections has never been easier. At Mercy Ridge Retirement Community in Timonium, Md., residents enjoy a congenial, intimate atmosphere where neighbors quickly become friends. As a smaller continuing care retirement community (CCRC), Mercy Ridge can offer the genuine connections of a tight-knit village, as well as all the lifestyle amenities and activity options that today’s retirees want. The community is also harnessing the power of technology to keep residents
connected with staff, each other and loved ones. Mercy Ridge provides specially equipped iPads to every resident through a program known as CATIE (Communication and Access To Information Everywhere). While all the community’s residents stay connected, few are more involved than Vince and Jean Gallagher. The Gallaghers have always been socially active, both individually and as a couple, but their lives—and their social calendars—have grown exponentially since moving five years ago. Vince grew up near Philadelphia and later attended Loyola University. Jean’s brother, Tom, was one of Vince’s classmates, and he met Jean through their large social circle. After graduating from college, Vince joined the military

and was stationed at Quantico, Va. He kept in touch with Tom during that time and also got reacquainted with Jean. What was an initial attraction turned into a lifelong connection; Vince and Jean recently celebrated their 63rd wedding anniversary. Shortly after their marriage, Vince began his career in marketing. He worked for a floor covering manufacturer, and the couple moved around as his career advanced. “We moved in and out of Baltimore throughout my career, and we kept in contact with some people here,” said Vince of the couple’s long-term connection to Charm City. The Gallaghers also lived in Pennsylvania and Georgia, among other places. During that time, they raised one son, and they are now the proud grandparents of two grandchildren and one great-granddaughter. A native of Baltimore, Jean saw moving to Mercy Ridge as a homecoming. She grew up in the city and attended Towson University. She earned a degree in education and taught briefly before marrying Vince and relocating for his career. Despite their many moves, Jean was eager to return to Baltimore during retirement. “We were living in Georgia when we decided to start looking at retirement options up here,” Jean said. “We looked at just two other places, but we immediately knew that Mercy Ridge was the right place for us.” In addition to the community’s close proximity to downtown Baltimore and their son’s home in nearby Mays Chapel, the couple was also drawn to the friendly atmosphere of Mercy Ridge. “The size of this community really appealed to us,” explained Vince. “We had visited friends in other retirement villages with 3,000 or more residents, and they are huge. If you are looking for a more intimate atmosphere, a smaller community like Mercy Ridge is the perfect choice. This is just a very congenial place to live.” Since moving, the Gallaghers have established themselves as engaged residents. Vince plays golf, serves on three committees at the community, and regularly visits the on-campus Pub to meet with friends. Jean frequents the community swimming pool and plays bocce ball. They both participate in the community’s singing group, which frequently provides holiday entertainment for residents in the assisted living community on campus. They’ve also made many close friends. “We have dinner with different people almost every night that we eat in the restaurant,” Vince noted. “We have really gotten to know a lot of people here.” Jean added, “This move has been so good for socializing. We have a lot of friends now.” The Gallaghers also noted that as longtime friends pass away or move, many older adults become increasingly isolated living independently. “We seriously considered moving to a condo in Mays Chapel, but I’m so glad we didn’t. We wouldn’t have been able to meet any new people living there,” said Jean. 22

ful for the peace of mind that comes with knowing that their mother is safe and secure. “Mom is very agile, but there were still some safety issues when she was alone,” Karen explained. “You can only call somebody so many times a day to check in. Now we know that she is safe, that she is taking her medications, and that she is eating balanced meals. That has really put our minds at ease.” The family also is relieved to know that even if Anita’s care needs increase because of advancing dementia or other health issues, Tudor Heights will always be able to meet those needs. In fact, the community specializes in providing assisted living for patients with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias, encouraging them to lead full lives by continuing to grow mentally, spiritually and socially. The community also recognizes the profound impact that dementia has on families and remains dedicated to creating the most supportive environment possible for residents and their families.
With 24-hour care and an array of stimulating activities, Anita has never felt more at home. “This is such a friendly place,” she said. “I think everyone here just really does a good job.” One of the main reasons Anita feels so at home is because Tudor Heights is dedicated to providing residents with an experience that really celebrates local culture and cuisine and is uniquely Baltimore. The community honors the area’s proud Jewish traditions with a floor dedicated as Jerusalem Lane. They are also currently renovating the second floor of the building to create Old Baltimore Court, an area that will showcase memories of Baltimore. Since she has always loved Baltimore, it’s not surprising that Anita is now spending her retirement years in one of the city’s most renowned assisted living communities. Her family is certainly thrilled that she has found an environment that is both comfortable and safe. For her part, Anita is adjusting well to her new home, and is a favorite friend to many.

Character Counts By Christy Brudin

hile it’s always important, character really counts in an emergency situation. Ollen, a caregiver with Visiting Angels homecare agency, has proven his reliability and his character—twice. When mother and daughter Laura and Kathleen experienced two separate fires in their apartment building, Ollen safely evacuated both women. Laura and her daughter Kathleen, who has Multiple Sclerosis (MS), are both confined to a wheelchair, so Ollen, who is their part-time caregiver, carried them down several flights of Laura and Kathleen receive the help they need to remain in their own apartment from Visiting Angels caregiver Ollen. stairs to safety.

HOW TO
prepare to move
roll up your sleeves, or let a professional help
T
he organizational and physical challenges of moving can often be overwhelming, but there are professionals and useful tips that can ease the transition for everyone involved. Seeking Professional Help Senior move managers are professionals who specialize in assisting older adults and their families with the emotional and physical aspects of relocation. They often have backgrounds in gerontology, social work, health care, nursing and psychology. Because they focus exclusively on the move process, move managers have significant expertise in resources and approaches that save money, reduce stress and produce quality results to meet the client’s personalized needs. Moving on Your Own Once you have made the decision as to where you are moving, you will have a much easier time figuring out what items to keep or get rid of. Having a floor plan and the important measurements will 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 to plan 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 giving away too much too soon, or to have important things lost in the shuffle. Some excerpts from this article used from Moving On: A Practical Guide to Downsizing the Family Home by Linda Hetzer and Janet Hulstrand (Stewart, Tabori & Chang).

C Hoic e s , Ta s k s & T i p s R e a l-L i f e Story
A
fter living in his home near Perry Hall, Md., for more than 30 years, Mr. S* knew it was time to move. He also knew that relocating would be an enormous task. That’s when he turned to Abilities Network’s Move Management program. In his mid-90s, Mr. S had been living alone in his single family home for more than a year since his wife passed away. He was starting to experience increasing health challenges, including problems with his sight and hearing. While he had in-home care providers, he knew that he needed more help and made the decision to move to Oak Crest, a nearby retirement community. Mr. S felt confident that the move would simplify his life and give him the help he needed to enjoy his retirement. However, the thought of moving was overwhelming. While his daughter was supportive of the move, she lives in another state and could not physically assist with all the downsizing and packing. When the staff at Oak Crest recommended Abilities Network to help with his move, Mr. S and his daughter were relieved. A non-profit organization, Abilities Network offers a wide variety of moving options, as well as community services. Services include a free speaker series in their Towson, Md., office once a month. Prior to his move, Mr. S met with one of Abilities Network’s move managers, Heather Murphy, to determine the best plan of action. With the help of his

daughter, they decided to focus first on moving to his new apartment. On the day before the move, Abilities Network staff members arrived at the home of Mr. S and began packing his belongings. The professional staff members were able to help Mr. S and his daughter

make final decisions about what to take to his new home, keeping space considerations and sentimental value in mind. On moving day, Abilities Network oversaw the movers and unpacked and put away everything. When Mr. S entered his new apartment, it was completely set up, with the bed made and everything in its place. While Mr. S was busy meeting new friends, the Abilities Network team returned to his old home and began sorting through his remaining belongings. They sold some items and donated the remainder to a local charity. Within two weeks, the home was ready to be placed on the market. “I had no idea how long it would take to empty out the entire house,” said Mr. S’s daughter. “Although my dad and I worked for nearly two weeks, there was so much more to do, and it was great to know that Abilities Network would take care of everything. They were able to help us find a carpenter/painter who got the house ready for sale after it was emptied. It took so much off my dad’s shoulders and my mind.” In addition to his well-organized apartment and new friends, Mr. S is also enjoying all the amenities that come with retirement living. Chief among these amenities are the delicious meals. “My father is adjusting well to his new life. He has already gained five pounds,” his daughter noted with a smile. *Name has been changed.

HOW TO
sort through items
donating and recycling your belongings
D
onating or giving away household items or recycling them (finding new uses) can be a frustrating and confusing matter. What can you actually give away, and who will take it? This is often the part of the process where people become the most easily bogged down. The following, from Moving On discusses a couple of options when you are sorting through your belongings. Donating and Recycling When people want to donate household items, often the first place they think of is one of the major charities like Goodwill, the Salvation Army, or Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America—and for good reason. These agencies are willing to take many of the things we would like to get rid of and put them to good use by either giving them to the needy or selling them in their thrift shops, with the profits going to support their social services programs. Often these organizations will make it even easier on donors by coming to the home to pick up donated items. And when you give to charitable organizations, your donation is tax deductible. To be considerate when donating, make sure that all clothes are clean and wearable; all appliances are in work-
ing order; and anything with multiple pieces, like children’s games or tool sets, have all the parts intact. Exactly which items charities accept varies from organization to organization and from location to location, so it’s best to contact your local outlet for specifics. Some charities post guidelines on their websites for items they will accept. Most charities accept clothing of all types and shoes for men, women and children, as well as costume jewelry and accessories; appliances in working order and household items; televisions, stereos and computers; books, toys and games; and sporting goods. Most do not accept broken appliances, water beds, furniture in bad repair, magazines or old encyclopedias, bathroom fixtures such as toilets or sinks, tires, paint, swing sets, water heaters, windows or doors. Household items can also be donated to smaller or locally based charities, such as veterans’ associations, churches and synagogues, children’s charities,
and programs for the elderly. Community theaters, women’s shelters, prisons, hospitals, rehabilitation centers and nursing homes also often accept donations of furniture and household goods. You might also inquire at local schools, preschools, day-care centers, art schools, and after-school programs to see if they could use toys, games, books, desks, art supplies or musical instruments. The following are among the many household items charities and companies may accept: furniture; clothing; computers; cell phones; medical supplies; books; and odds and ends such as fabric, wood, leftover tile or paint. Excerpt from Moving On: A Practical Guide to Downsizing the Family Home by Linda Hetzer and Janet Hulstrand, which provides tips to get started, strategies for keeping things in perspective, and extensive source listings of where to donate or sell contents of a home.

HOW TO
utilize real estate transactions
transforming the challenges of selling and buying into choices Preparing 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
tastes, the financial and sentimental value of possessions, and the new floor plan.
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 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.
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

HOW TO
obtain legal advice
elder law attorneys cater to your legal needs
S
ince living decisions are becoming increasingly complex, many people find themselves searching for someone who can cater to their specific legal needs. Making sure that you have the right professional for the job at hand is one of the most important tasks in getting any job done the right way. When it comes to your legal needs, there’s no difference. Finding the right attorney may take some research and time, but in the end, it’s always better to have done your due diligence. What is an Elder Law Attorney? An elder law attorney is an individual who specializes in areas of the law that are particularly relevant to senior citizens and their family members. These attorneys generally focus their practices in a few of the following areas: estate planning, long-term care planning, social security, public and private pensions, Medicare, Medicaid, Medigap insurance, long-term care insurance, age discrimination, durable powers of at-
torney, living wills, conservatorship and guardianship, or abuse. Elder law attorneys can offer an especially sensitive ear concerning the sometimes difficult decisions involved in one’s later years. While dispensing legal advice, they are also able to refer clients to other professional and/or non-legal resources that are available to help meet their needs. Do I Need an Elder Law attorney? Because of the expense of legal services, you want to be absolutely certain that your situation necessitates the assistance of a legal professional before hiring an attorney. Before consulting an attorney, you should consider the following questions: Is this a complex legal issue? Is it likely that you will have to go to court? Are there non-legal resources available to help you? Can you resolve this difficulty on your own or with the help of a family member? To pick the right attorney and save yourself time and money, you must know your needs. If you aren’t familiar
with your own situation, it can be difficult to explain it to someone else. Know your own financial limitations and the financial benefits of engaging the services of a specific attorney. In other words, only buy what you need and what you can afford. If you only want a will that names your spouse as your sole beneficiary and there are no other needs, you probably don’t need an expensive package. Be a smart consumer. Who Pays For It? In most cases, you pay for the services of these attorneys. However, there are attorneys who will occasionally take on pro-bono cases or will work on a contingency fee. Local law schools are good places to check for assistance as many students will help low-income or disabled individuals to practice their skills.

elder law changes know the laws and the numbers
B
eginning in 2014, there were some changes to a variety of laws that may interest elders and their loved ones. The following updated laws are particularly relevant for seniors and their families who are attempting to plan for the future. Gift and Estate Taxes: The annual gift tax exclusion continues at $14,000. This means a wealthy relative can give away gifts totaling $14,000 per year, per individual, and the benefactor will not incur a tax. If your relative is in a really generous spirit, he can, upon his death, bequeath up to and including $5.34 million with no tax penalty to the recipient. The $5.34 million is a lifetime tax exclusion for gifts. This cap also applies to generation-skipping gifts. Medicare Premiums, Deductibles, and Co-payments: In some parts of the country, there have been some modest increases in copayments. In Part A, the deductible has gone from $1,184 to $1,216 (an increase to the consumer). However, this has been balanced out with higher reimbursement for hospital stays for days 61-90, which went from $296 to $304 per day. For days
91 and beyond, the co-payment has gone from $592 to $608 per day. Part B premiums and deductibles remain unchanged. The good news for married couples, filing jointly or filing separately, is that for incomes of $85,000 or more, there are no changes in your premium payments! Medicaid Spousal Impoverishment Amounts: If you and your spouse are contemplating applying for Medicaid because of the need to place one of you in a nursing home, keep in mind that there are income and asset limits, which will prevent eligiIt is important that seniors and their families bility.

HOW TO
discuss billing methods
understanding the fees and expenses involved Attorneys may bill weekly, monthly or upon completion of work. Discuss how your attorney charges and how often he/she bills at your initial meeting. It is very important that you understand and feel comfortable in this area. Some attorneys charge by the hour with different hourly rates for work performed by attorneys, paralegals and secretaries. If this is the case, find out what the rates are. Other attorneys charge a flat fee for all or part of the services, which is not unusual if you are having documents prepared. Your attorney might use Some attorneys charge by the hour with a combination of these methods. different hourly rates for work performed by In addition to fees, most attorneys attorneys, paralegals and secretaries. will charge you out-of-pocket expenses which can include charges for copies, calls and other such costs. Find out if postage, messenger fees, court fees, dis- there will be any other incidental costs. position fees, long distance telephone The attorney may ask for a retainer
(money paid before the attorney starts working on your case). Usually placed in a trust account, the attorney pays himself or herself out of that account each time you are billed. Expenses may be paid directly from the trust account. The size of the retainer may range from a small percentage of the estimated cost to the full amount. Ask that your arrangement with an attorney be put in writing either in a letter or formal contract that states the attorney’s services and what the fee and expense arrangement will be. Even if the agreement is oral, you are responsible for all charges for work done by the attorney and his/her staff.

HOW TO
prepare legal documents
advance directives that put your affairs in order Advance directives (living wills, powers of attorneys, and health care proxies) are legal documents that express an individual’s wishes with regard to medical decisions. They are intended to provide direction to a designated “agent” to speak on behalf of a person who is unable to speak for himself due to a physical or cognitive injury. Finding an Agent An agent under an advance directive has legal authority to make any decisions and take any actions for the individual who appointed them. It is important for an individual to appoint a trusted person to speak for him when he is unable to speak for himself with respect to medical and end-of-life decisions. Consultation with an attorney is critical to address legal nuances, personal prefer-
ences and state differences. When drafting advance directives, an individual’s wishes for health care and end-of-life decisions must be specifically addressed. Considering the significance of these decisions, it is important to appoint an agent who will follow the individual’s directions even if family members, medical professionals or friends disagree with them. Things to Consider The National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA) advises consumers to consider five key items. 1. Who will serve as your Agent for Health Care or as the alternate? 2. Are there certain medical treatments or pain control measures you want or don’t want? 3. Do you wish to take or refuse any
medication that may reduce or eliminate the ability to communicate with others? 4. Do you have any particular directions regarding specific health care facilities, religious preferences, disposition of your body, donation of bodily parts for transplant or research, etc.? 5. What directions will you provide related to end-of-life decisions specifically regarding: n if you can no longer eat, drink or breathe on your own; n if you cannot function independent of machines; n if you are confined to bed with no mobility; n if you have little cognitive ability.

HOW TO
find an elder law attorney
utilize your resources and ask the right questions
T
he 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 as 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. Whether you get a referral or try someone new, keep your options open. A friend may have had a good experience, but your case is different and you need to decide for yourself.

free service brings news to the visually impaired
A
n organization based out of Silver Spring is continuing to fulfill its mission of bringing the printed word to the visually impaired across the region. Established in 1974, The Metropolitan Washington Ear, Inc. (MWE) is a 501(c) nonprofit that enables the blind, visually impaired and physically disabled to have free access to news and information services. With a team of 350 volunteers, MWE strives to improve the lives of people with little to no vision, helping them be well-informed and fully productive members of their families, communities and the working world. The services are available to those certified as unable to effectively read ordinary print due to visual or physical limitations. The telephone dial-in service allows Among the no-cost services is a ra- users to skim through publications dio broadcast using radios that are with a touch-tone telephone while controlling the speed and volume of pre-tuned to the MWE station and a the recorded voices. subcarrier channel from WETA-FM. With telephone dial-in news, users papers, magazines and other collateral, have the option to skip and scan news- as a sighted person would while read-
ing, by utilizing a touch-tone telephone. From The Washington Post to People Magazine, volunteers read various publications into a computer daily, starting early in the morning and covering all sections, which can then be accessed by callers who are also able to control the speed and volume of the recorded voices. Additionally, the organization provides a personal lookup service each weekday evening and audio description of live stage performances in nine theaters in the metropolitan area. This extends to audio versions of the National Symphony’s printed programs and full schedules of the Strathmore Mansion and Music Center. Documentaries, museums, IMAX films and indoor and outdoor exhibits are also accessible with the help of audio describers trained for these particular venues.

continuing education providing learning environments for senior-serving professionals
T
here is no question that the population of Baby Boomers and their aging loved ones is rapidly increasing. Therefore, understanding the needs of these groups and the issues affecting them has never been more important. What some may not realize, however, is that various educational institutions have implemented programs designed for those interested in or currently serving seniors and their families. Johns Hopkins University (JHU) is one such school reaching out to professionals with its Odyssey Certificate on Aging. The core and elective courses have been constructed with a broad range of disciplines in mind and are especially relevant to caregivers, clergy, financial planners, lawyers, nurses, social workers, volunteers and work/life planners. However, admission to individual courses is open to any interested adult. Students receive the Certificate on Aging upon completing four required courses, four electives and a capstone project that allows them to delve into a topic of their choice with the supervision of a faculty adviser. Examples of
required courses include ‘Public and Private Programs for the Elderly’ and ‘Biological Aspects of Aging,’ while electives vary with ‘Aging, Nutrition and Fitness;’ ‘Counseling, Case Management and Older Adults;’ and ‘Death, Grief and End-ofLife Planning.’ Designed to address the ethical, financial, legal, medical and psychological issues facing the fastest growing population in the U.S., Odyssey and similar programs allow professionals to better serve the seniors they care for on a daily basis. Like JHU, McDaniel College features programs in Gerontology through The Center for the Study of Aging (CSA). Here, required courses and electives from 12 departments and programs are offered including social work, communication, exercise science and physical education, biology and religion. The Erickson School of Aging Studies is another program that strives to educate leaders with the goal of improving society for older adults. Focusing on Aging, Management and Policy, the program enables students to immerse themselves in several disciplines using an active learning environment.
Various educational institutions have implemented programs designed for those interested in or currently serving seniors and their families.
The Odyssey Certificate on Aging and similar programs are helping professionals improve the lives of older adults one class at a time. Through active learning environments, professionals in the field are gaining a greater understanding of the decisions facing today’s Boomers, ultimately helping them to enhance options for this growing group.

Each system has three elements: a portable radio transmitter (help button), a console connected to the user’s telephone, and a response center to monitor the calls. In case of an emergency (a fall, chest pains, suspected intruder, etc.), the user simply calls for help by pressing the button on the radio transmitter. The console picks up the signal (much like an automatic garage door opener) and automatically phones the response center (even if the phone is off the hook). The call is routed to the response center where the caller is identified through special coding. The monitoring center’s first response is to talk with the user and verify that an emergency exists. This can be done The features offered by many PRS providers are expanding at an astounding rate.

Sorting through the maze of health & assistive technology
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 remain 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.
• 33% of adults 65+ fall each year • 43% of falls occur outside the home • You are 3 times more likely to fall after the 1st fall.
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

the neighborhood you dream about the village movement is prompting communities to think about creative solutions for aging in place
I
magine you are living in a community where you know your neighbors. Imagine that your patio needs weeding, and you prefer not to do it. In this neighborhood, a simple phone call can have someone over to take care of your weeding. Perhaps you need some home repairs, or you are returning home from the hospital after surgery and need some assistance. In this neighborhood, you can get assistance from trusted volunteers and providers with one phone call. This type of neighborhood is becoming a reality, and the Washington, D.C. region and the state of Maryland are the launching pad for several.
How it All Started Nearly 90 percent of Baby Boomers say they want to stay in their homes and close to family and friends as long as possible, according to a survey by AARP. The challenge these individuals face, however, is that if they do nothing to prepare for future needs, they may not be able to continue living in their homes as long as they would like. Residents of Beacon Hill, a downtown Boston neighborhood, responded to the challenge of staying in their community by joining their neighbors to take control over where and how they will live in the years to come. They formed

a non-profit, Beacon Hill Village, which serves those aged 50+ in central Boston, to take advantage of social, cultural and wellness activities without leaving their homes. The various services provided are designed to respond to the members’ specific needs and wants and include concierge services, comprehensive home care, home repair, house cleaning, grocery shopping, transportation and other services. Where it is Going The original Beacon Hill has now grown to nearly 400 members. The innovative concept has also grown exponentially. Hundreds of other communities have been founded based on the same principles in the United States and beyond. In fact, by the tenth anniversary of the original Beacon Hill, more than 60 Villages had opened. These Villages are all connected through the Village-to-Village Network, which is a means for villages to learn from each other, exchange ideas, pool resources and share tools.

HOW TO
stay surrounded with activity
active adult communities keep residents moving 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. Most active adult communities are not equipped to provide increased care or health-related services. However, several are part of a larger Continuing Care Retirement Community, where residents can count on extended care if they develop health problems. Ideal for retirees, but not limited to those who have stopped working, active
adult communities are full of options and most of the costs are included in the living fees. Homes are constructed of low-maintenance building materials and feature virtually maintenance-free yards, so residents can enjoy the tennis courts, swimming pools, hiking trails, biking paths and fitness centers that are generally available within these communities. When researching this option, start by requesting information packets from prospective communities. Once you have narrowed down your options, schedule visits to each. While you are there, take
thorough notes and make a list of pros and cons. 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 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.

HOW TO
understand entrance fees
knowing the options when paying for Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) Most CCRCs require payment of a one-time fee, usually called the entrance fee, before moving to the community. The entrance fee amount often depends on the level of care at the time of entry, type of housing chosen (with larger units requiring a larger fee) and agreement type. The entrance fee allows the CCRC to offer lower monthly fees and provide for the future needs of residents. State regulations can impact the terms of the entrance fee and in some states, refunds are called rebates. Entrance fees are typically structured in one of three ways: Declining scale refunds, also known as amortizing entrance fees, specify a period of time in which the entrance fee will be refundable to the resident on a declining basis. For example, if an entrance fee under this arrangement de-
P
I C K E R S G I L L
clines at the rate of 1 percent each month, after 6 months 94 percent of the entrance fee is refundable. Partially refundable entrance fees guarantee a specific percentage of the refund that will be returned within a certain period of time regardless of the term of residency. For example, 50 percent of the entrance fee may be refundable upon termination of the contract or to the estate upon the resident’s death. Full refunds offer just that, a full refund of the entrance fee. A fixed charge may be deducted before the refund is made, and the agreement generally states how long the refund is valid and under what conditions a refund is due. Entrance fees that offer full refunds are typically more expensive than those without refunds or those that are par-

I know some day it might be me in his shoes. I have many kids, and I am setting an example for them. This is the circle of life,” says Bill Cummings, of Cummings Financial Organization. In the musical “The Lion King,” there is a song called the “Circle of Life” (go ahead and sing it). Part of the lyrics state: “It’s the circle of life. And it moves us all. Through despair and hope, through faith and love. Till we find our place, on the path unwinding, in the circle, the circle of life.” “I had a life moment last week with one of my kids that made me think of the circle of life and how it has affected my business,” says Cummings. “One of our grown daughters was home last weekend, since she wanted to take a break from her Master’s program.

The Cost of Aging 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 Public Health at the George Washington University, created The Cost of Aging in America, an extensive infographic previewed below, to explore some of these issues. More information is available at http://publichealthonline.gwu.edu/ cost-of-aging/.
RISING OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS Income levels for aging Americans are increasing, but not as quickly as their medical bills. By 2040: Median annual out-of-pocket costs for Americans age 65 will nearly double:

HOW TO
live independently
communities offer security with no home maintenance Independent living communities are residential communities for active older adults who want an enjoyable lifestyle free of the worries of home maintenance. They are similar to any apartment, condominium or single-family development, except that they provide special services, including security. Most independent living communities are fully secured with staff members greeting and screening all visitors around the clock. As many individuals at this stage in their lives are looking to pursue new hobbies and interests, the activities and amenities available at a community are a major factor for potential residents. Several independent living communities provide a full range of activities such as shopping trips, outings to cultural events and organized gatherings. Some communities
also have tennis courts, swimming pools and other amenities. Most offer a variety of meal plans with the option to prepare meals in your apartment. Most independent living communities do not offer health care services but some 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. Paying for Independent Living Most independent living communities are rental communities, but some are condominiums or single-family communities in which residents can purchase their own units or homes. Costs and services vary widely. In some communities, a monthly fee covers many services, while
in others a fee-for-service system is used. A few communities offer subsidies based on strictly defined need. To learn more, contact your local Area Agency on Aging. What to Look For Research your options and request information from those communities to which you have narrowed your focus. A major question for those who are considering an independent living community is how to meet their future health care needs. It is important to have a specific plan covering various levels of care, especially if you are only interested in making one move during this time. You also may want to question whether to select a fee-for-service arrangement or an all-inclusive fee.

Understanding Independent Living in Maryland In Maryland, senior apartments are generally for people age 62 and over, but some will accept younger disabled people. Spouses under age 62 may be allowed. There are usually no supportive services available. Some apartments participate in the “Congregate Meals” program or the “Congregate Housing Services Program,” see below: Congregate Meals Congregate meals are offered in more than 250 meal sites including senior centers, religious facilities, housing facilities or other community sites throughout Maryland. Many meal program locations are within state-ofthe-art facilities and offer a variety of engaging activities such as health promotion and exercise centers. Meal sites offer an opportunity to meet new friends and participate in other social or health-related programs, including nutrition education, physical activity and health screening. In 2009, seniors received nearly 1.5 million meals in congregate settings throughout Maryland. Most senior congregate
nutrition sites offer a hot lunch; however, some congregate settings offer deli lunches, salad bars, soups and sandwiches or evening meals. Breakfast programs are offered in several locations. A variety of culturally-appropriate meals are offered in select locations including kosher, Vietnamese, Chinese and Korean. Congregate Housing Services Program The mission of the Congregate Housing Services Program is to provide support services and state subsidies to eligible residents of low and moderate income senior housing who, due to advanced age or chronic health conditions, need daily help with activities such as meal preparation, housekeeping and personal services. The Maryland Department of Aging contracts with housing and senior service provider organizations, such as local housing authorities, nonprofit organizations or housing management companies to operate a Congregate Housing Services Program for eligible residents of designated buildings. Eli-
gible residents are those who are at least 62 years of age and in need of assistance with one or more activities of daily living. The program provides meals; weekly housekeeping of each participant’s apartment; and limited personal assistance with activities such as bathing, dressing and laundry. The cost of the Congregate Housing Services Program varies by site. Individual program participants contribute to the cost based on a sliding scale. State subsidies are available for eligible residents of participating sites who require financial assistance. To qualify for a subsidy, an individual’s income may not exceed 60 percent of the State median income, and assets may not exceed $27,375 for an individual or $35,587 for a couple. Currently, there are more than 574 units of Congregate Housing located in more than 25 senior citizen apartment buildings statewide. To view a list of congregate housing sites in Maryland or to receive additional information on local housing programs, contact your local Senior Information and Assistance Program.

HOW TO

or individuals who need some assistance with daily activities, assisted living communities are an important option. The living environments and amenities offered by communities vary widely; however, all communities provide residents with some level of daily assistance, which generally includes meal and housekeeping services. What is 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 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-ofthe-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 personal care homes, come in a variety

Many communities also offer from large communities with 100 or exercise and wellness programs. Often, more residents to small homes with 15 activities are catered to and driven by or fewer residents. resident interests. Who Needs It? Residents of assisted living usually include anyone who needs some help with the activities of daily life. This includes eating, bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, medication management and walking. Survey data from the National Center for Assisted Living reports that 81 percent of assisted living residents need assistance with one or more of the activities of daily living. Most communities offer three meals a day served in a common dining area. Many also offer some type of assistance with transportation. Housekeeping and laundry services are standard offerings. Staff members are available to meet resident needs 24 hours a day. Most commu-
Choosing a Community It is a good idea to carefully review several of the available options. First and foremost, consider the needs and desires of the potential resident. Begin the initial process of narrowing the search by reviewing a list of all the local communities. Request a brochure from your top choices, as well as other specific information including the resident agreement or contract, a list of services and amenities, detailed prices, staffing information, admission and discharge criteria, and community rules. It is advisable to visit a facility more than once to get a complete feel for the lifestyle at the community. Talk with staff and residents and tour the entire facility.

The Facts on Congregate Housing Supportive Services for low-to-moderate incomes n Congregate Housing provides supportive services to residents in selected communities to help them remain independent. n Congregate Housing services are offered in senior citizen apartment buildings that serve low-to-moderate income residents and may be operated by local housing authorities, non-profit organizations or housing management companies. n Eligible persons receive daily meals, weekly housekeeping and laundry, and assistance with other activities of daily living.
n In Maryland, the State Department of Aging contracts with housing and senior service provider organizations to operate a Congregate Housing Services Program. n Participants must be 62, mentally or physically impaired and of limited income. Spouses of eligible participants must be 55 years of age or older and meet the same requirements. n Individual program participants contribute to the cost of Congregate Housing based on a sliding scale. To qualify for available state subsidies, an individual’s income may not exceed 60 percent of the state median income, and assets may not exceed $27,375 for an individual or $35,587 for a couple.
For more information, contact the Maryland Department of Aging at 1-800-243-3425

generosity runs deep in boomers study explores family interdependencies and retirement
D
uring the last five years, three out of five Americans age 50 and older have provided financial assistance to members of their family, including adult children, parents, grandchildren, siblings or other relatives, according to a new Merrill Lynch study. Conducted in partnership with Age Wave, “Family & Retirement: The Elephant in the Room” is an in-depth study exploring modern family interdependencies and the challenges Boomers face in balancing them with their own retirement plans and financial security. Conducted in August 2013, the study is based on a nationally representative survey of more than 5,400 respondents. The average financial assistance provided to family members during the last five years was nearly $15,000 – and significantly more among the nation’s wealthiest families. This support may have been to help relatives meet a one-time need or ongoing assistance over the course of many years, and was often given without expecting anything in return. However, the vast majority of people age 50 plus (88 percent) have not factored such support for family into their financial planning. “Given the challenging economic climate during the past several years, it’s not surprising that so many Americans have extended financial support to their loved ones,” said Andy Sieg, head of Global Wealth and Retirement Solutions for Bank of America Merrill Lynch. “However, such admirable willingness to assist family members should not place one’s own long-term financial security in jeopardy.” Additional highlights from the study include: Are you the Family Bank? Nearly three in five people (56 percent) age 50 plus believe a member of their family is the “Family Bank,” meaning someone who their extended family

Assisted Living of proactive discussion and engagement between family members on key financial topics. This can negatively impact various aspects of one’s retirement and overall financial security. Seventy percent of adult children age 25 and older have not had a discussion with parents about their retirement and other issues related to aging. And more than half (56 percent) of parents age 50 plus say they have not discussed any important financial issues – such as a will, health directive, inheritance plans and where they plan to live in retirement – with their adult children. Furthermore, just one in four siblings age 50 plus have discussed how their parents will be financially provided for, or cared for, as they get older. Across all relationships, the most common catalyst for such discussions is the death or illness of a family member or friend (43 percent), and the top barriers for having an open conversation include fear of family conflict (24 percent) and the fact Care Giving & Receiving: Troubling lack of discussion The vast majority of people age 50 Continued on page 78 The study also found a significant lack

People who do have these discussions with family members are, on average, nearly twice as likely to say they would be well prepared financially if faced with a family challenge. “Proactive discussions and coordination with family members can be the difference between smooth sailing and significant hardship when confronting financial challenges leading up to and through retirement,” said David Tyrie, head of Retirement and Personal Wealth Solutions for Bank of

HOW TO
pay for assisted living/personal care
know your options when paying for care
W
hen considering potential assisted living communities, it is important to research your payment options. Although Medicare does not cover the costs of assisted living, there are a variety of payment sources available. The National Center for Assisted Living reports that “certain services are paid under Supplementary Security Income and Social Services Block Grant programs.” Individuals who meet income qualifications may also be eligible for assistance through their state Medicaid program. Some communities also offer internal financial assistance programs. State and local governments may offer subsidies for rent to those who are income-eligible. Contact the local Area Agency on Aging for more information on subsidies and other payment assistance programs. Long-term care insurance policies 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 is $2,714 per month or $32,572 annually. These figures are averages only and do not account for more
affordable or subsidized options that are 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.

HOW TO
valuable issues to consider
T
he Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF International) offers several tips on how to choose the right services for yourself and your loved ones. According to its website, spending time at a community can give you valuable insight about the environment and level of service. The following are some important aspects CARF recommends considering about the organization, your first impressions and the staff. First Impressions Count Upon entering the provider’s facility, look around. You can begin to evaluate the service levels provided by using some of the following questions: n Was I greeted in a friendly manner? n Did they see me immediately? n Do the premises appear to be well maintained, clean and safe? n What is my impression of the service level? n How are staff members interacting with persons receiving services and coworkers? n What is the ratio of staff to persons receiving services? Spotlight Safety n What credentials do staff members have? n What health and safety policies are in place, as related to incidents involving

HOW TO
access benefits for veterans
help is available for service members
I
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.
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 physiLong-Term Care Benefits cally or mentally incapacitated; or In addition to preventative, health • Have poor eyesight (5/200 corrected maintenance and emergency care, VA visual acuity or less in both eyes). benefits may also provide for long-term care in some instances.

HOW TO
find residential living
a more close-knit way of life
A
ssisted 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 serving of meals, housekeeping tasks, gardening or other daily activities. Food is prepared in small quantities, and residents are encouraged to help. Group homes are usually nestled into neighborhoods, indistinguishable from other surrounding properties. Though regulations governing these homes differ 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.
owned
and
As with any community, it is important to visit the homes to talk with staff and the current residents and their families. Be sure that you are given specific information about caregiver training, community
amenities and costs. For more information, a comprehensive guide to selecting a residence can be obtained through the Consumer Consortium on Assisted Living at www.ccal.org.

HOW TO
evaluate nursing care
specialized care for individuals who need daily assistance
W
hile some individuals are able to continue running their households with little assistance, there are those who may have debilitating physical or emotional conditions that require care beyond what family or professional home care aides can provide. It is best to start researching nursing facilities before an emergency arises to avoid making a less than ideal choice.
What is Nursing Care? At a nursing home, care is administered by professionals under the direction of a physician. Many facilities also offer sub-acute, respite, rehabilitation and other short-term care. Rehabilitation services can be especially helpful for individuals who are recovering from surgery, an illness or any other life-changing event. Who is Nursing Care For? These homes serve as permanent residences for individuals who are too sick or frail to live at home, or as temporary facilities during a recovery period. Some enter a nursing home for a short-term stay after a surgery or illness, while others enter on a
more permanent basis. Who Pays for Nursing Care? Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance and personal assets are all used under various circumstances to pay for services in a nursing care facility. If a facility is not certified by Medicare and Medicaid, the care will have to be paid for entirely with personal funds. In general, Medicare pays for skilled nursing care following hospitalization for the same illness or condition at 100 percent of the cost for days 1 – 20. Some long-term care insurance pays for nursing home care; insurance payments are usually a fixed amount for a specified number of qualified days. The basic daily rate is the standard charge the nursing home bills to all residents, which covers the fundamental services every resident receives, including rent for the room, housekeeping, meals and general nursing care. It is important to understand all the services and amenities that are not included in the basic daily rate.
of your Area Agency on Aging. Ombudsman programs promote the highest quality of life and care for residents of nursing facilities and can help families and staff with inquiries and complaints. Visit your prospects at different times of day. Talk with residents. Be persistent about getting your questions answered.
Entering & Adjusting to Nursing Care Although some people enter a nursing home temporarily for a short-term stay, it is still a sad day for most. Reassurance from family and friends that love and contact will be maintained can ease the transition. The following steps may help lessen the trauma of this change: n Talk about the admission in advance and describe the home in detail. n Visit the home with the prospective resident beforehand and get to know the administration. n Involve the prospective resident as much as possible in the decision-making process. n Decide together what items to bring What to Look For in Nursing to the nursing home. n Be available the entire day of admisCare sion to help settle the resident and proBefore choosing a home, contact the vide support.

issues around this subject, so you may want to have support for yourself, as well as for your senior, throughout this process. Thank you for trying to keep your elderly person safe.
M
y elderly neighbor’s family is ignoring her immediate and longterm care needs. —John Dear John, When we become aware that a friend, family member or neighbor needs some extra assistance, we are sometimes hesitant to step in. How do we listen to our conscience without intruding on another’s privacy? On the other hand, what if something negative happens to that individual, and we have
not alerted anyone? I always start with the individual in question. The senior you mention may not want her family to get involved, or may not want her privacy intruded upon. My experience is that if you approach the subject gently, conveying your concern, the elder may open up to share her situation from her perspective. She might have solutions, but no way to carry them out. The elder may want someone specific to be called in to help but she may not know how to start the conversation to ask for help. Whatever the situation, some attention needs to be brought to the forefront. Once you have investigated the problem with the elder in question, follow her suggestions and her lead, and help her to help herself. I always try to preserve the independence and dignity of our seniors. If the elder is not competent to understand that she needs help, then the family or the person in charge needs to be
notified. If all else fails, the department of aging in your community or, in extreme cases, the police may be of assistance. If they can’t help directly, they can point you to the proper services in your community. Keep a journal of the names and contact information of any people you speak to, so you’ll have a record to refer back to. As we age, and as our families spread out, we all need to show concern for each other and lend a helping hand when needed. Thank you for being a concerned citizen and neighbor. Over the last 35 years, Marion Somers, Ph.D., (Doctor Marion) has worked with thousands of seniors and their caregivers as a geriatric care manager. It is now her goal to help caregivers everywhere through her book, “Elder Care Made Easier,” web site, public service announcements, national bus tours, and media appearances.

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 long-term 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 against specific longterm 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.
Ombudsmen are advocates who work to improve the quality of life for seniors and other individuals receiving long-term care services.
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 What Can an Ombudsman Do? long-term care facility. An Ombudsman can formally address If the concern requires a formal inves-
tigation, 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.

Hospice
HOW TO
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.
Hospice is unique in that care and support are provided to the entire family, not just the patient. A team of skilled professionals and volunteers work to serve the special needs of everyone involved. Choice is at the center of the hospice approach — a person faced with a life-limiting illness is encouraged to remain in control of his or her life. As care is usually provided in one’s home, many hospice patients live out their lives in the comfort of familiar daily routines, surrounded by their treasured possessions along with family and friends. However, hospice services may also be provided in long-term care facilities or inpatient hospice residential settings.
How Does One Receive Hospice Care? Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance generally require a prognosis of six months or less for services to be covered. In addition to traditional medical hospices, there is a non-medical hospice program in Montgomery County that offers support for patients with a one year prognosis What Services are Provided? or less who may choose to continue their Hospice team members focus primarcurative treatments. ily on managing the patient’s pain and
symptoms with medication, medical supplies and equipment. Other services, such as speech and physical therapy, are available if necessary. If managing the symptoms within the home becomes impossible, hospice providers can offer short-term inpatient care. While family members learn how to properly care for the patient, information and support is also available to help everyone deal with the emotional, psychosocial and spiritual aspects of dying. Surviving loved ones will receive bereavement care and counseling from the hospice professionals. Adapted from Caring Connection’s and the American Cancer Society’s websites. For more information, see www.caringinfo.org or the information on hospice care at www.cancer.org.

Hospice
understanding palliative care Palliative care (pronounced PAHLEE-UH-TIVE) helps a person remain comfortable by addressing issues causing physical pain, emotional pain or suffering. Hospice programs have provided palliative care for the last thirty years. Currently, these programs serve more than 1.2 million patients and their families each year. Now, this very same approach to care is being used by other healthcare providers, including teams in hospitals, nursing
facilities and home health agencies. To palliate means to make comfortable by treating a person’s symptoms from an illness. The goals of palliative care are to improve the quality of a seriously ill person’s life, and to support that person and their family during and after treatment. Hospice focuses on relieving symptoms and supporting patients with a life expectancy of months, not years. However, palliative care may be given at any
time during a person’s illness, from diagnosis on. Most hospices have a set of defined services, team members, and rules and regulations. Some hospices provide palliative care as a separate program or service. Information adapted from the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization’s Web site.

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 dementia 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.

HOW TO
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.

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, or skilled nursing. 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.

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

shared living for single seniors website helps “Golden Girls” and “Golden Guys” find roommates
B
onnie Moore knows the secret to preventing loneliness as she ages, and it has less to do with who shares her bedroom than the other rooms of her house. When a divorce left Moore, now 70, living alone in a newly remodeled home in Bowie, Maryland in 2008, she searched for and found four roommates to fill the empty bedrooms. The experience was so positive for Moore that she wrote a book called ““How to Start a Golden Girls Home.” In June 2014, she launched Golden Girls Network, a website dedicated to helping mature adults find roommates and ease their way into shared living. “Living with others at this stage in my life has been so much more fun and rewarding than I ever imagined,” said Moore, founder of Golden Girls Network. “In addition to contributing rent that makes my mortgage affordable, my roommates have become an important part of my life. We throw parties together, get to know one another’s friends, and help each other out.” Nationally, shared living is on the rise among baby boomers, thanks to a swelling demographic of single seniors and the economic recession that ate into people’s savings. In 2000, there were 820,000

households where single people ages 46 to 64 shared housing with non-relatives, according to Bowling Green State University’s Center for Family and Demographic Research. By 2013, that number had risen to 1,090,000. According to Moore, there are several ways that shared living can work. “Some people are looking to become part of a group that shares and manages equally, either through shared ownership or equally sharing a lease. Others are looking for a landlord/tenant arrangement where one person owns the home and others are roommates. A third option is a home companion, where one person provides some household assistance and companionship
for an older adult.” Moore designed GoldenGirlsNetwork. com to be easy for those seeking a variety of roommate arrangements. Moore teaches a monthly online class in which she reviews each of the different shared living arrangements and offers recommendations and best practices (like sample roommate agreements) for making it work. “Many mature adults simply don’t know where to start looking for a roommate,” Moore said. “Our goal is to help people connect. Finding the right shared living situation can be life changing.” More information is available at GoldenGirlsNetwork.com.

pay for home care As the decision to remain at home is becoming an increasingly popular option, 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 information concerning government benefits. Skilled nursing care will be paid for by Medicare as long as it is determined to be “intermittent skilled care,” which includes occupational, respiratory, speech and physical therapy. To be covered, care
must be ordered by a doctor. Individuals who meet income requirements may be eligible to receive skilled nursing services through Medicaid. Major medical health insurance will also cover 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.

This especially applies to those who want to know if they are eligible for Medicare coverage when entering a nursing home or receiving home health care. Below is some helpful information on whether you can use your home health care benefits if you have Medicare and what services and products it will cover. First, you can use your home health care benefits if all of the following applies to your situation. Your doctor must prescribe that you need medical care at home and create a care plan. The care you need has to be intermittent and in the form of skilled nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy or speech therapy. The home health agency must be Medicare-certified and you must be homebound, or unable to leave the home unassisted. Once you have established those requirements, it is important to understand what Medicare will actually cover, which includes the following: • Home health aide services on a part-time or intermittent basis, as long as there is a skilled need • Medical social services • Certain medical supplies • Durable medical equipment (wheelchair, walker, bedside commode, etc.) Given the services and products that Medicare does cover, it is also valuable to take note of what is not covered. Care that is required 24 hours a day will not be covered. Other services not covered include personal care provided by home health aides such as bathing and dressing, along with homemaker services like cleaning and laundry. Also not included are 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.

Home Car e Questions to Ask When Hiring Paid Caregivers If facing this decision, the following questions will help in making a safe and educated decision: homeowners’ insurance policies exclude such injuries via “domestic employee exclusions.”
1. If the hired caregiver becomes ill or
otherwise unavailable, what alternate arrangements can be made?
2. Are social security, federal and state
5. Are criminal history background checks,

that would cover any injury to the client, damage, or theft? When an agency says they are “bonded,” family members should be sure that this covers injury or damages related to the caregiver(s)
caregivers can legally work in the U.S.?
4. If the hired caregiver is injured, who
is responsible? Remember that many
working in the home.
7. A ssuming family is not available to
supervise paid caregivers at all times, will there be documentation that substantiates the completion of services? If the adult caregiver does not have the time or resources available to answer these important questions, the services of a professional home care agency or adult day care center may be the right solution.
Plan ahead: Secure your Valuables Before opening your home to any service provider, including in-home caregivers, you should take a few steps to make sure that you protect yourself and the caregiver. Taking these steps does not demonstrate a lack of trust in the provider. It is simply logical to make sure that you look after your assets. You should place any of the following items in a safety deposit box or other secure location: n n n
Small valuables Irreplaceable or sentimental items Small family heirlooms

caregiver tips in helping with medicare n
By Ross Blair, PlanPrescriber.com
1. Manage Timelines Effectively: Medicare eligibility begins for U.S. citizens and legal residents when they turn 65. A person has a seven-month initial enrollment period that begins three months before their birthday month and ends three months after. During this initial enrollment period, a person can enroll in Original Medicare (Parts A&B), a prescription drug plan (Medicare Part D) or a Medicare Advantage plan. If a senior wants to enroll in a medigap (Medicare supplement insurance) policy, the open-enrollment period starts the first month the person is both 65 and enrolled in Part B, and lasts for 6 months. During that 6-month medigap

Universal Design Creating spaces designed for convenience, safety and economy Universal design is a method of designing and remodeling buildings and products to make them more inclusive. These carefully designed spaces and items are more accessible for older people and people with disabilities, as well as for people without disabilities. Universal design concepts can be applied throughout the home environment to make the space safer and more accessible for all occupants.
Stairways The optimal home would have all living areas on one level with no stairs. However, most homes in the region feature living areas on multiple levels which makes the stairway a critical element of design. Some solutions include: n Adequate
grip rails on both sides that extend beyond the landings n Lighting on and around the stairway n Contrasting
colors to provide visual cues n Floor treads n Chair lifts, platform lifts, elevators
Bathrooms A well-designed bathroom starts with ample lighting and non-slip surfaces. Additional features can be incorporated that can make your experience in the bathroom enjoyable and safe including: n
Motion-sensing lighting n Open storage shelves and hooks n Telephone and intercom system by the toilet n Adjustable
height showerhead n Removable transfer seat into a bathtub n Low/no threshold shower n Molded-in or fold-down seat in shower n Elevated toilet or adjustable toilet seat n Auto-flush toilet n Grab bars n Height-adjustable or English style rollunder sink n Lever handle or motion-sensing faucets n Tilting mirrors to improve visibility
Kitchens Well designed kitchens can accommodate the different heights and abilities of family members or visitors to the home. Some designs and products to consider include: n Varying
counter heights n Elevated dishwasher n Roll-out & pull-down shelves n Swiveling cabinet doors with lazy Susan
style shelving n Rolling carts
n
Dark and light colors for visual contrast n Pull-out countertops below ovens n Side-by-side
refrigerator n Knee space underneath cook tops and sinks n Front control touchpad appliances n Heat-proof surfaces n
Eliminating sharp corners n Additional lighting including under-cabinet lighting n Ergonomic utensils & products

HOW TO
make aging in place possible
professionals can help modify the home for your needs
C
ountless 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 common remodeling projects and on how to combat 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 improve maneuverability include brighter lights, bath and shower grab bars, higher countertops, multifunctional first floor mas-
CAPS can help reconcile the need for a familiar environment with the need to prioritize safety and accessibility.
ter suites, and elevators. CAPS are mostly remodelers, but a number of general contractors, designers, architects and health care consultants who have been instructed in techniques for building aestheticallypleasing, barrier-free living environments are also involved in planning.
The CAPS designation was developed by The Remodelers Council of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) in conjunction with the NAHB Research Center, NAHB 50+ Housing Council and the AARP to address the growing number of consumers requiring these modifications.

late-onset depression & chronic medical conditions
A
dults with no previous history of depression can develop it late in life due to changes and losses they experience. Lateonset depression often occurs simultaneously with a chronic medical condition, happening for the first time at age 65 or older. Late-onset depression can develop due to physical limitations, decreased independence and the interruption of social networks that accompany a chronic medical condition or the onset of a new medical condition. For example, coronary artery disease is a risk factor for depression; while having depression can put you at risk for developing coronary artery disease. Depression is not a normal part of aging, but it is often not viewed as an actual medical issue. When seniors experience depression and a chronic medical condition together, the depression can aggravate the condition and interfere with successful treatment. The coexistence of major depression with chronic conditions is associated with more physician visits, emergency department visits, days spent in bed because of illness and functional disability. “Caregivers of seniors who have never previously experienced depression, and especially those who have been diagnosed with a new chronic medical condition, should be alert to the warning signs of depression,” says Mary Ellen Knecht, RN,

Home Car e Director of Community Relations with The Medical Team. Medical conditions which cause depression can include coronary artery disease, chronic lung disease, cancer, chronic pain, diabetes, macular degeneration, sleep disorders, and stroke and neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. As many as one-third of individuals with a serious medical condition may experience symptoms of depression. For example, major depression occurs in more than half of patients within 6 months following a stroke; 20 percent of patients with Parkinson’s disease will experience a major depressive episode. Older adults can be less inclined to acknowledge depression and may show less obvious symptoms. Many times they accept depression as part of aging when in fact it is not. Signs and symptoms of depression can include: • Persistent sad, anxious or empty feelings • Feelings of hopelessness, guilt or helplessness • Irritability and restlessness • Loss of interest in activities • Fatigue • Difficulty concentrating • Insomnia or excessive sleeping • Overeating or appetite loss • Thoughts of suicide or suicide attempts “Depression is often neglected when the focus is on treating a senior’s chronic medical condition but treating the depression could significantly improve quality of life,” added Knecht. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, only about 10 percent of seniors
suffering from depression receive treatment. When untreated, depression leads to poor quality of life, decreased ability to live independently and an increased burden on caregivers. Studies show that the majority of older adults with depression respond well when they receive treatment, which can include an antidepressant, psychotherapy or both. A Pittsburgh Medical Center study found that 80 percent of seniors treated over a three-year period didn’t suffer recurrent bouts, while only 10 percent of those without treatment avoided relapse. There are treatment programs such as The Medical Team’s Journey Behavioral Health Program which can help patients and their caregivers in the comfort and familiarity of home. These programs provide a range of services and support tailored to the needs of individuals with a behavioral health diagnosis and can help them better manage their chronic medical conditions and cope with issues that may affect their ability to care for themselves. “Depression shouldn’t be considered an inevitable outcome of chronic medical conditions and aging,” reminded Knecht. If you or a loved one might be suffering from depression, talk with your doctor about treatment options.

HOW TO
locate resources
help is available in your neighborhood and across the country Government agencies are an invaluable resource that 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 key components of this network, which serves seven million Americans age 60 and over, as well as 325,000 caregivers, are the Administration on Aging, the State Units of Aging and the Area Agencies on Aging. Administration on Aging (AoA) As the leader of the Network, AoA works primarily to increase awareness amongst government agencies, organizations and the general public in regards to the needs of the older American population. In addition to recommending policy and developing regulations, AoA is also responsible for providing grants to worth-
while projects. The AoA can be reached at contact the Eldercare Locator, call 1-800www.aoa.gov or 202-619-0724. 677-1116 or visit www.eldercare.gov. Eldercare Locator In an effort to provide nationwide information assistance to the general public, the AoA developed the Eldercare Locator in 1991 to connect Americans and their caregivers with information about local services. The program puts individuals in touch with local AAAs and other community-based organizations. To
State Units on Aging The State Units on Aging (SUA) serve as the state arm of the AoA. SUAs coordinate services in their states by working with a variety of state agencies and other public and private organizations. State Units also award grants to AAAs to help create community specific programs.
Government agencies can provide vital connections to programs and services.

HOW TO
prevent falls
accidents can be serious for seniors
A
ccording to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), one in three adults age 65 and older falls every year. While the severity of these falls and the resulting injuries can vary, falls are always a serious occurrence for older adults. Common injuries from falls include hip fractures and head traumas. For many seniors, falls can lead to extended hospital stays or even life threatening injuries. Even if a fall does not result in an injury, it will likely leave the senior feeling scared and may lead to a gradual limiting of activities. Fear, combined with an increasingly sedentary lifestyle, will only increase the risk of a fall in the future. National and local community and non-profit organizations are working with seniors and their families to help decrease the risk of falls and lessen the impact of falls after they occur. These organizations provide information and services that may help improve the quality of life for seniors. Understanding the Risks On both a national and a local level, the risk of falls is one of the largest, preventable medical challenges that seniors face. The statistics on falls and the injuries they cause are alarming. For instance: • In 2008, more than 19,700 older

adults died from unintentional fall injuries, according to the CDC. • The death rates from falls among older men and women have risen sharply over the past decade (CDC). • In 2000, direct medical costs of falls totaled a little over $19 billion—$179 million for fatal falls and $19 billion for
nonfatal fall injuries. This equals $28.2 billion in 2010 dollars (CDC). Injuries from a fall can range from minor to severe, but the risk of serious injury is much greater among the senior adult population. For many seniors, falls are the initial injury in what becomes a Continued on page 142

Lifelong Lear ning
learning for life
O
lder adults are often encouraged to stay active and engaged to keep their minds sharp. But new research indicates that only certain activities—learning a mentally demanding skill like photography, for instance—are likely to improve cognitive functioning. These findings in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, reveal that less demanding activities, such as listening to classical music or completing word puzzles, probably won’t bring noticeable benefits to an aging mind. “It seems it is not enough just to get out and do something—it is important to get out and do something that is unfamiliar and mentally challenging,” says psychological scientist and lead researcher Denise Park of the University of Texas at Dallas. “When you are inside your comfort zone, you may be outside of the enhancement zone.” For their study, Park and colleagues randomly assigned 221 adults, ages 60 to 90, to engage in a particular type of activity for 15 hours a week over the course of three months. At the end of three months, Park and colleagues found that the adults who were productively engaged in learning new skills showed improvements in memory
Older adults who productively engage in learning new skills may experience improvements in memory.
compared to those who engaged in social activities or non-demanding mental activities at home. “The findings suggest that engagement alone is not enough,” says Park. Park and colleagues are planning on following up with the participants one year and five
years down the road to see if the effects remain over the long term. The APS journal Psychological Science is the highest ranked empirical journal in psychology. For more information, please call 202-293-9300.
Home Care Patient Rights Federal law requires that all individuals receiving home care services be informed of their rights as a patient. Following is a model patient bill of rights the National Association for Home Care (NAHC) has developed, based on the patient rights currently enforced by law.
Home care patients have the right to: n be fully informed of all rights and responsibilities by the home care agency; n choose care providers; n appropriate and professional care in accordance with physician orders; n receive a timely response from the agency to requests for service; n be admitted for service only if the agency has the ability to provide safe, professional care at the level of intensity needed;
n receive reasonable continuity of care; n receive information necessary to give informed consent prior to the start of any treatment or procedure; n be advised of any change in the plan of care, before the change is made; n refuse treatment within the confines of the law and to be informed of the consequences of this action; n be informed of his or her rights under state law to formulate advanced directives. For more information on patient rights, visit http://www.nahc. org/consumer/rights.html.

A d u lt Day C e n t e r s
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 provider has been in business and their licensures and certifications. Be sure to understand the staff credentials, staff to participant ratio, and the medical conditions the facility and its staff are equipped to handle. Inquire about the availability of transportation to and from the program if it is necessary. The types of activities offered and the menu variety should be considered as well. Specific costs and any financial assistance that is available should be clearly outlined in the information packet. Reviewing printed materials and asking questions over the phone can help narrow the choices, but the final decision of which Adult Day Center to use must be made in person. During the visit, carefully observe the general atmosphere of the building and the program. The layout of the building and the rooms should ensure easy accessibility for persons in wheelchairs or using walkers. The entire facility should be clean and pleasant. Furniture should be sturdy and comfortable, with choices available for lounging and participating in activities. Beyond the general setup of the facility, focus on the interaction between the
staff members and the participants. Do the participants appear happy and satisfied? Are volunteers available to offer assistance? The center should be a welcoming place, complete with staff members who are ready and able to help. Also, notice the participation level of the attendees. Are they actively involved? Inquire as to whether participants are involved in planning activities and how staff members handle suggestions for new programs. During the visit, staff members should be able to provide clear and 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.
