the choice is yours
I
regularly receive calls from readers who are in conflict with another family member regarding elder care decisions. Sometimes the calls are from siblings who cannot agree on the best course of action for a parent. Other calls come from seniors whose children are encouraging them to make a lifestyle change – a change they are not sure they want – or need. Often, the most heart-wrenching calls come from families who are unprepared for the costs of senior care.
From “I’m not ready yet” to “We can’t afford that,” I have heard it all in the last three decades. I tell our readers today what I realized after only a few months in this business: there is always an answer. The decision may be challenging, but thanks in large part to the ever-growing local senior services industry, there are always choices. That is where we come in. From our comprehensive provider listings to our feature articles, Guide to Retirement Living SourceBook strives to provide readers with the information they need
to make choices. This issue’s cover story focuses on Bill and Jan Nelson, who are planning ahead for a move to The Lutheran Village at MILLER’S GRANT, a brandnew retirement community being built in Howard County (see page 20). Following in the footsteps of Bill’s forward-thinking parents, the couple is excited about helping to build a vibrant and close-knit community. For one of our new feature stories, I had the pleasure of interviewing an amazing man with a real knack for
Senior Living at its Finest! “When There’s No Place Like Home... There’s Quail Run.”

storytelling. In “A Charmed Life,” you’ll learn about Bill Applegate’s close calls and incredible experiences (see page 24). Today, he lives near his beloved grandsons and enjoys a packed social calendar at Harmony Hall, an assisted living community in Columbia, Md. This issue also includes a feature story on a lady who knows how to love— and live. At 97, Mary Elizabeth “Sweets” Summers is still living in the home she shared with her beloved husband, Maynard, with the help of caregivers from Right at Home (see page 26). None of these families walked this road alone. They all worked closely with
a network of trusted providers to create a successful plan for caregiving. In this and every issue of SourceBook, it is our goal to provide you with thousands of resources that can help you and your family make choices that fit your needs and your lifestyle. As I have learned, there is a senior-serving professional or community that can help you. Now, the choice is yours.
Wishing you all the best this holiday season

A Charmed Life By Christy Brudin
“T
hat was a close shave I had,” recalled William (Bill) Thomas Applegate of his harrowing journey through thick fog in a plane running low on gas. It was a close call, but it wasn’t
his only one. Bill has lived what some would call a charmed life and readily admits his good fortune in avoiding or getting out of dangerous situations. He is also, at 93, vibrant and engaging. He may be charmed, but he is also enormously charming. A resident of Harmony Hall, an assisted living community in Columbia, Md., owned by Lorien Health Systems, Bill is able to live an independent life with the security of knowing that assistance is available if he needs it. Bill moved to the community on a trial basis last year. After several months, he knew he had found his new home. Harmony Hall offers delicious meals, exciting activities and fabulous amenities. For residents who need medical assistance, the facility has a variety of options, including in-house dialy-
sis. The community also has an interest free home loan program that can make retirement living more affordable. Most importantly, Harmony Hall offers a caring and engaged staff; it is truly, “Where the heart is.” “I knew this was where I should be,” Bill said. “I love all the things they offer here: side trips, entertainment options, and a Friday Happy Hour. I also love being close to my two grandsons and their families.” Bill’s adventures began on his 21st birthday, when, without telling his mother, he and several friends headed down to the Naval Recruiting Office. “Four of us went down and took the physical, but they all flunked. I was the only one who passed,” Bill recalled. “Here I was thinking that I’m going off with my buddies, and now I’m going all alone.” After enlisting for a six-year term, Bill boarded a boat and headed to basic training. “I ended up in Puerto Rico with a patrol squadron and eventually became part of an air crew as a radio and radar operator,” he said. Bill spent a large portion of his service in the Caribbean.
After living alone in Florida for several years, Bill Applegate (left) moved to Harmony Hall to be closer to his two grandsons, Marc (pictured) and Michael. He now enjoys a full social calendar and the security of assisted living.

“Believe it or not, I saw more German submarines in the Caribbean than I did in Europe,” he noted. He also experienced quite a few close calls. During one, a friend asked Bill to stand in for him on a scheduled trip to Rhode Island, so he could visit his family nearby. He agreed. “Well, he flew up there, and they went out on patrol and disappeared. Vanished. Never found a trace of them. Now, I was supposed to be on that plane,” Bill said with wonder. On another occasion, Bill again switched places with a fellow radioman. The plane crashed in a swamp in North Carolina, killing half the crew. “My friend survived, but he ended up in a full body cast,” he said. “Again, I thought, ‘I was supposed to be on that one.’” The infamous journey through what he described as “pea soup” fog was yet another close call. The pilot was unable to see through the fog, the plane was running dangerously low on fuel, and Bill had already been told to put on his parachute, when they burst through the clouds and were able to land within minutes. “After awhile, I began to think that I was like a cat with nine lives,” Bill said. “I was using them up awfully fast though!” During his time in the military, Bill also had the good fortune to meet his wife. “I just had the feeling she was the right one,” he recalled. “That lasted for 52 years.” After leaving the military, Bill pursued a much safer career: accounting. However, his good luck didn’t end when he entered banking. Thanks to a special retirement deal, he was able to leave his position as the Vice President of a bank at the age of 63 and live comfortably in retirement. Bill and his wife moved to Florida after his retirement and lived there for several years before she passed away. After her passing, Bill continued to live alone in Florida, but his family grew increasingly worried about his safety. When his grandsons, Marc and Michael Applegate, found nearby Harmony Hall, they encouraged him to give it a try. Bill has never looked back.
“I knew this was where I should be. I love all the things they offer here: side trips, entertainment options, and a Friday Happy Hour,” Bill said of Harmony Hall.
“My grandsons have always had an important place in my life, and now I see them almost every weekend,” Bill said. “Last month, I went with Marc and his wife and kids to a Baltimore Orioles game. I hadn’t been to a baseball game in 40 years, so it’s wonderful to have these experiences with them.” Marc couldn’t agree more. “We’ve always had a close relationship, and I love that he is close by now, and we can see him more frequently,” he said. Marc and his brother also appreciate the peace of mind that comes from knowing that there is always someone looking out for Bill’s safety. “If there is ever any kind of emergency, we know that there is help nearby,” he explained. In addition to bringing him closer to his family, the move to Harmony Hall has helped Bill build new friendships and pursue lifelong interests. He enjoys playing games and socializing with his fellow residents. He also plays the organ for his peers and now gets frequent requests for “concerts.” “I am working on a new song now. They want another concert, so I’ve got to fulfill their wishes,” Bill said. Bill doesn’t have many “close shaves” anymore, but he is still living a charmed life—and he’s just as charming as ever.

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!

You do not want to regret giving away too much too soon, or to have important things lost in the shuffle.

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 (finding new homes for them), or recycling them (finding new uses), can be a frustrating and confusing matter. What can you actually give away, and who will take it? This is often the part of the process where people become the most easily bogged down. The following, from Moving On discusses a couple of options when you are sorting through your belongings. Donating and Recycling When people want to donate household items, often the first place they think of is one of the major charities like Goodwill, the Salvation Army, or Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America—and for good reason. These agencies are willing to take many of the things we would like to get rid of and put them to good use by either giving them to the needy or selling them in their thrift shops, with the profits going to support their social services programs. Often these organizations will make it even easier on donors by coming to the home to pick up donated items. And when you give to charitable organizations, your donation is tax deductible. To be considerate when donating, make sure that all clothes are clean and
wearable, all appliances are in working order, and anything with multiple pieces, like children’s games or tool sets, have all the parts intact. Exactly which items charities accept varies from organization to organization and from location to location, so it’s best to contact your local outlet for specifics. Some charities post guidelines on their websites for items they will accept. Most charities accept clothing of all types and shoes for men, women and children, as well as costume jewelry and accessories; appliances in working order and household items; televisions, stereos and computers; books, toys and games; and sporting goods. Most do not accept broken appliances, water beds, furniture in bad repair, magazines or old encyclopedias, bathroom fixtures such as toilets or sinks, tires, paint, swing sets, water heaters, windows or doors. Household items can also be donated to smaller or locally based charities, such as veterans’ associations, churches
and synagogues, children’s charities, and programs for the elderly. Community theaters, women’s shelters, prisons, hospitals, rehabilitation centers and nursing homes also often accept donations of furniture and household goods. You might also inquire at local schools, preschools, day-care centers, art schools, and 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
unique needs of their clients throughout the home buying and/or selling process. After finding a qualified agent, homeowners are ready to begin the process of preparing to sell their home. A qualified agent’s comprehensive assessment of the condition and marketability of the home can decrease selling time and increase selling price. Specialized agents can also help clients prioritize repairs and locate qualified professionals to complete such projects. Utilizing the help of professionals to prepare for a sale can ultimately result in a selling price that reflects the top market value for the home. Step Two: Packing and sorting Items should be sorted into distinct categories: keep/move, give to family, donate to charity, and throw away. The initial list of items to keep will likely be larger than the new space can accommodate. Moving professionals, however, can offer advice by taking into account their client’s personal
tastes, the financial and sentimental value of possessions, and the new floor plan. Step Three: Moving For many, moving day is simple and rewarding due to comprehensive, customized real estate services provided prior to the sale of the house. On moving day, real estate professionals can recommend trusted companies to help with the physical aspects of moving, while providing assistance with the job of unpacking and setting up the new home. Challenges become choices As the challenges of moving fade due to increasingly helpful professionals, people are left with nothing but choices—where to move, when to move, what to take and how to decorate the new home. Individuals considering a move are no longer faced with the difficult questions of how to market their homes and move their belongings, as there is help available every step of the way.

HOW TO

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 6/3/05 12:15 PM Page 1 practices in a few of the following areas: estate planning, long-term care planning, social security, public and private pensions, Medicare, Medicaid, Medigap insurance, long-term care insurance, age discrimination, durable powers of attorney, living wills, conservatorship and guardianship, or abuse. Elder law attorneys can offer an especially sensitive ear concerning the sometimes difficult decisions involved in one’s later years. While dispensing legal advice, they are also able to refer
issue? Is it likely that you will have to go to court? Are there non-legal resources available to help you? Can you resolve this difficulty on your own or with the help of a family member? To pick the right attorney and save yourself time and money, you must know your needs. If you aren’t familiar with your own situation, it can be difficult to explain it to someone else. Know your own financial limitations and the financial benefits of engaging the services of a specific attorney. In other words, only buy what you need and what you can afford. If you only want a will that names your spouse as your sole beneficiary and there are no other needs, you probably don’t need an expensive package. Be a smart consumer. Elder law attorneys lend their expertise on estate planning, pensions, long-term care planning, age discrimination and wills.
Who Pays For It? In most cases, you pay for the services of these attorneys. However, there clients to other professional and/or non- are attorneys who will occasionally take legal resources that are available to help on pro-bono cases or will work on a contingency fee.

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.

(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.

supplementing your medicare coverage n

edicare is a vital part of the health insurance portfolio for millions of Americans, including baby boomers who are aging into the Medicare program at the rate of 10,000 a day. As boomers review their options for how they can receive their Medicare coverage, they’ll discover that they’ll need to find ways to pay for the out-ofpocket costs that Original Medicare (Parts A and B) doesn’t cover, such as deductibles, copays and coinsurance. Medicare supplement insurance can help boomers and other beneficiaries limit and more accurately predict their out-of-pocket costs, giving them peace of mind in the event of an unexpected medical issue. Boomers who decide that

age at the time of enrollment. Similar to flat ratings, the rate will not increase simply because you grow older. An attainedage rating means your plan’s monthly rate will increase each year as you age, so it’s important to ask the company about their rate increase history for the plan you are considering. Lastly, see what “extras” may be offered to you by the provider if you enroll in their plan. While companies cannot alter the federally mandated benefits of Medicare supplement plans, they can offer you additional value-added features, such as free or discounted access to certain health and well-being services. Your Health Status You’ll also want to consider the potential difficulty of enrolling in the plan you want. Some Medicare supplement carriers underwrite all of their plans, while oth-
ers underwrite only a select few. If a plan is underwritten, the status of your health at the time of enrollment is used to determine your eligibility for the plan and may also affect your rate. The best time to purchase a Medicare supplement plan is during your open enrollment period, which is the six-month period beginning on the first day of the month in which you are both age 65 or older and enrolled in Medicare Part B. If you apply for a Medicare supplement plan during this window, your acceptance is guaranteed into the plan of your choice, regardless of your health status.

Hearing Loss
understand hearing loss how the ear functions and the forms of hearing loss Hearing is one of our most basic senses. It is vital to communication. It helps us to remain in contact with family and friends via the telephone and in-person conversations. Hearing also offers protection from dangerous situations, allowing us to heed a siren or respond to a verbal warning. Individuals with hearing loss often believe that hearing aids cannot help their situation because of misinformation and misconceptions about the devices, leading them to think their situation is hopeless, but this could not be further from the truth! The human ear is comprised of three distinct parts: the outer ear; the middle ear, which contains the eardrum and three tiny bones that conduct sound; and the cochlea or inner ear. Hearing is a highly complex process that involves the middle ear and the cochlea, as well as the auditory nerve and the brain. When
sound waves enter the outer ear, they travel through the ear canal and strike the eardrum. The vibrations of the eardrum sends the waves through the cochlea, where thousands of tiny sensory cells generate electrical impulses. These impulses send sound messages up the auditory nerve to the brain, which interprets them as sound. Every case of hearing loss is unique, but all hearing problems can be categorized as either conductive hearing loss or sensorineural hearing loss. Conductive hearing loss affects the outer or middle ear and is often caused by a buildup of wax or fluid, a punctuated eardrum, or abnormal bone growth. This type of loss can be corrected through medical treatment or by surgical procedure. Sensorineural hearing loss accounts for more than 90 percent of all hearing losses and is characterized by the deterioration of

the delicate sensory cells in the cochlea. The aging process, prolonged exposure to loud noises, infections, head injuries, and certain medications can all cause this type of hearing loss. There is no cure for sensorineural hearing loss, but hearing aids are generally effective in helping individuals to experience improved hearing. The common misconception that “nerve deafness” or sensorineural hearing loss cannot be treated with hearing aids is simply not true given the advanced technology of today’s hearing aids. A hearing aid works as a personal amplification system. When sound enters the hearing aid through a microphone, a tiny amplifier makes the sound louder. The amplified sound travels through the ear canal and causes increased stimulation in the middle ear and the cochlea. This increased stimulation makes sounds clearer and easier to understand.

HOW TO
get help managing money
stop watching those statements and bills pile up
O
lder adults frequently become overwhelmed with the amount of medical statements and other mail they accumulate in a short time. Insurance and medical bills are often confusing — or even contradictory. Daily Money Managers (DMMs) can help manage these concerns by monitoring their client’s accounts and outstanding bills, while also protecting against identity theft. What is Daily Money Management? Daily Money Management is a service that addresses an issue facing many senior citizens: handling paperwork that seems to expand endlessly. Daily Money Managers provide personal financial assistance to seniors, usually in the client’s home, while simultaneously safeguarding the valuable identity they’ve worked a lifetime to establish. What services does a Daily Money Manager offer? They offer an array of services, which
Mention This and Receive a Free 1 Hour Consultation $65.00 Value
include balancing checkbooks, writing checks to pay bills, and keeping accurate records of all checks written and all deposits made. This kind of record keeping provides peace of mind for the client and, in some cases, for their family. DMM services also provide value in monitoring medical bills, ensuring that Medicare and other health insurance providers have paid their share before the client pays any balance due. Another important component of one’s financial health is identity protection. Several firms offer identity theft protection, fraud protection and other security-related services for seniors. “Seniors have a lot to lose, and often don’t have the background or tools to recognize or spot fraudulent activity quickly enough,” said David Poulos, Chief Marketing Officer of Senior Guardian Services based in Baltimore. “We can give seniors peace of mind by paying their routine invoices for them, reviewing bank statements, reviewing marketing offers and other incoming mail, and protecting them from being exploited.” Additionally, DMMs can help with in-
come tax preparation and in documenting medical and charitable contributions that often mean the client will pay lower taxes each year. How do I find a Daily Money Manager? Because finances are a highly personal matter, hiring a DMM is an important and individual decision. Referrals from a friend or colleague are a good place to start. If necessary, contact your local Area Agency on Aging for suggestions. The American Association of Daily Money Managers’ website (www. aadmm.com) can also provide valuable information that will help you find a reliable DMM. Once you have found a DMM you are interested in hiring, it is a good idea to ask about their experience and qualifications. It is especially important to know whether your DMM is bonded and insured. You also want to determine how the DMM you plan to hire bills for their work. Hourly fees vary by locale, but in this area, the average range is $40.00 to $80.00 per hour.

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

a comprehensive evaluation, the GCM spends a few more hours researching and discussing available options with the client and their family, helping them to implement the care plan. What Can a GCM Do for Me? COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT. Utilizing their professional backgrounds and experience, care managers are able to perform an unbiased evaluation of the client’s mental, physical, social, financial and legal functioning. RECOMMENDATIONS. After determining what services would be helpful for the well-being of the individual, the GCM can recommend providers who will best meet the family’s needs. Familiar with industry standards, they routinely make recommendations for all levels of care. COUNSELING. The counseling that GCMs can provide helps clients and their families handle the emotional stress involved with these decisions. They provide the family with information about the illness or challenge that the client faces and the available resources. MEDIATION. GCMs can also negotiate family dynamics, helping to sort out all of the various concerns that have resulted from the challenge of caring for a loved one. FOLLOW-UP VISITS. GCMs are generally involved in the implementation of the care plan. This typically includes follow-up visits to the individual’s home or facility a

couple of times a week shortly after implementation and quarterly thereafter. Some clients are visited once a week for the duration of their services. Follow-up visits also allow the GCM to determine whether the current care services are working. How do I Choose a GCM? When considering a GCM, be sure to take into account their professional standing, as well as their personality and how comfortable they make their clients. Although there is no official licensure process for care managers, the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers has established standards of quality and a Code of Ethics; these standards as well as referrals for GCMs can be accessed through www.caremanager.org.

clearly knew her way around the medical field,” Betsy said. “She recommended the home care agency we are still using, made suggestions on doctors, and helped troubleshoot any problems we had along the way.” Since the Palmers have settled into their daughter’s home, Jill has continued to help the family work through various challenges. She visits monthly to perform an assessment and review their care plans. In addition to her monthly visits, Jill is always available for emergency consultations. “She is there whenever anything comes up,” Betsy explained. “She also always stops by whenever I am out of town to make sure everything is going well. That really provides peace of mind for me.” As the primary caregiver for her parents, Betsy is extremely grateful to have the assistance and expertise of Rosner Healthcare Navigation at her disposal. She concluded, “Jill’s always there if I need her; all I have to do is pick up the phone.”

hen Betsy Kremer went to visit her parents, Howie and Billie Palmer, in their assisted living community in upstate New York, she quickly realized that her father was not flourishing in the new environment. After initially moving into an independent living apartment, the Palmers were just settling in when Billie’s increasing healthcare needs forced them to move to the assisted living unit of the community. The assisted living community provided the care that Billie needed, but Howie, who was still independent, found the social opportunities lacking. Betsy and her husband invited her parents to come and live with them in their home in Maryland. To her surprise, her father not only accepted their offer but also was ready to move the following day. “When I asked when he wanted to move, he said tomorrow, and I knew I

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.
The Certificate on Aging at Johns Hopkins University
The Johns Hopkins Certificate on Aging is designed to meet the needs of those who serve aging adults and their families. Instructors teach a well-rounded curriculum suited for financial planners, nurses, lawyers, social workers, clergy, caregivers, volunteers, work/life planners and more. The Certificate on Aging: » Affordable » Exceptional faculty » Flexible, evening classes

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.

theatre unites generations
T
he newly formed Sykesville Little Theatre held its maiden production to four sold-out performances in September at the Neiswender Theater, which is on the campus of Fairhaven, a continuing care retirement community in Sykesville, Md. Actors in the production came from as far as the Washington, D.C. area to participate. Those attending one of the four performances included not only residents of Fairhaven, but also residents of Sykesville and the surrounding communities. “We are thrilled that people came from as far as the Eastern Shore to attend,” exclaims Barbara Bennett, the box-office director. “We are excited to finally see all of our hard work and efforts come to fruition,” says David J. Pagano, founder of the Sykesville Little Theatre group and director of its first production. “It is a way for people of all ages who love the theater to
come together and create something really outstanding. Community theater is truly a wonderful thing.” The Sykesville Little Theatre group identified a need for local performances and productions that both embraced and included the greater community, the residents and staff of Fairhaven, and the staff of EMA. The mission of the newly formed theatre group is to have two to three productions a year, with one or more of the cast members over the age of 65. The plays will primarily be adult modern dramas or comedies. The group will not be performing children’s theater or children’s musicals. “It is such a wonderful way to showcase the talents and skills of older adults,” adds Shirley Cammack, assistant director and Fairhaven resident. “I am so impressed at how we have attracted older adults with not only theatrical experience but also others who have such great enthusiasm to contribute to all aspects of the work it takes to
pull this off. We have volunteers who have painted the sets, pulled together the costumes and props and even researched the details of the plot’s era so that we are as accurate as possible.” “It has really sparked an interest, and we are seeing support not only with volunteers but we have also received monetary gifts to help fund equipment needs such as lighting, sound, etc.,” says Pagano. “It is really awe-inspiring how generous and supportive people have been.” The first production was “The Trip to Bountiful” by Horton Foote, a story of an aging widow living with her son and daughter-in-law in Houston, Texas. The first curtain went up on September 12th, and the play was a smashing success, with all shows sold out. Information on future productions or becoming a member of the SLT can be found at www.sykesvilletheater.org or by calling 410-970-2036.

middle class millionaires specialized retirement planning advice As Lewis Schiff and Russ Allen Prince chronicle in The Middle-Class Millionaire: The Rise of the New Rich and How They are Changing America, during the past 20 years, a portion of America’s middle class has been pulling away from their neighbors by amassing significant wealth. Through disciplined saving, shrewd investing or timely inheritance – or a combination of these – an increasing number of individuals and families throughout the Washington, D.C., metro area have accumulated $1,000,000 or more in investable assets. This includes doctors, attorneys and even thrifty schoolteachers who have $1 million to $2 million in net worth. Most of these Middle Class Millionaires are making $150,000 to $300,000 a year. Many are 50 to 70 years of age.

You might be one of them. If so, it is safe to say that you are aiming to have a balance during your retirement years that enables you to continue enjoying a multifaceted life. Whether or not you consider yourself a millionaire, your finances are significant and require informed decisions to preserve and strengthen what you have worked so hard to achieve. For Middle-Class Millionaires, today’s market is bursting with different investment opportunities and management styles, as well as a copious amount of retirement and estate planning tools and techniques. Sorting through the options to discern the best choices for your situation can be overwhelming. If you are a Middle Class Millionaire, here are some important things to know about retirement planning.
Retiring for the Long Haul If you are part of the generation born between 1946 and 1964 – the “Baby Boom” generation – then increased longevity is by far the most significant new retirement reality you have to deal with. In our grandparent’s generation, life expectancy was in the 70s. Now, for a married couple age 65, there is a 50 percent chance that one of you will live past your 90th birthday. This stretches your time horizon for thinking about when to retire. With increasing longevity, you not only need to save for retirement but also be prepared to save in retirement for the decades ahead. This will involve more than budgeting and frugality. You will need to invest with growth and tax efficiency in mind, year after year, because
Your parents gave you a great place to grow up. Show them a great place to stay young. Remember when your parents were your biggest heroes? Now it's your turn — and there's simply no better way than to provide them enriching and full lives in a safe and secure community.

In developing a retirement investment strategy, you need to break things down into short-, intermediate- and long-term segments. In the short term, one to three years out, you need highly secure investments with predictable return on principal. Short-term investment products that are highly secure with predictable returns include money market funds, CDs and U.S. Treasury bills. The intermediate investment term is four to 10 years. In this segment, you are looking for higher yield by focusing on high-quality corporate bonds backed by companies such as IBM, Procter & Gamble and AT&T. While planning for ten years and beyond, your number one challenge is maintaining long term purchasing power.

tips for grandparents imparting wisdom and experience
T
here are 70 million grandparents in the U.S., more than ever before. According to the recent study Grandparents Investing in Grandchildren: The MetLife Study on How Grandparents Share Their Time, Values, and Money, , grandparents are a vital source of financial support for American families and are in the enviable position of being sought after for wisdom and advice, even from teenagers. How can grandparents make the best of their relationships with their grandchildren and have the most impact possible? Based on its study, the MetLife Mature Market Institute is offering a tip sheet, Grandparents Investing in Grandchil-
dren: Actions Speak Louder Than Words, produced with Generations United. The guide provides grandparents with advice on how they can be influential in a positive way on topics including values, beliefs, civic engagement, heritage and even cooking. It reports that grandparents can also be an important influence on finances through both words and example. “Grandparents continue to be a positive influence on their grandchildren. Even though some are long distance and families seem to have less leisure time than in the past, it’s more critical than ever for grandparents to pass on life lessons, family history and positive values, through strong relationships with their grandchildren,� said Sandra Timmermann, Ed.D., director of the MetLife

Grandparents are also successful at teaching their grandchildren the importance of community involvement through philanthropy, volunteerism and voting. 2. Celebrate family. The guide suggests taking the time to create family history through an audiovisual message, a family tree, photos and/or by preparing meals together, which creates the perfect setting for conversations about family recipes. 3. Invest in your grandchildren’s financial security. Increasingly, grandparents are helping to support their grandchildren, especially through assistance with tuition. Grandparents can be particularly helpful by also helping grandchildren to acquire financial literacy skills. They help foster early saving habits and encourage smart spending and investing.

Help for Veter ans
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. 58

■
Once a Veteran’s eligibility is verified, they will be assigned a priority group. If an individual is eligible for more than one priority group, the VA will place them in the highest group for which they are eligible. Long-Term Care Benefits In addition to preventative, health maintenance and emergency care, VA benefits may also provide for long-term care in some instances. Long-term care benefits include assistance that is provided for an extended period of time to help Veterans with everyday tasks and/or provide support for managing an ongoing illness. Long-term care, as defined by the VA, may be provided in a person’s home, a community site, residential setting, or nursing home. Eligibility for services covered by the VA are determined based on a Veteran’s need for ongoing treatment, service availability in their area, financial eligibility, priority group status and insurance coverage. Long-term 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 Tell them you saw it in the SourceBook
everyday personal care needs (such as bathing, dressing, or toileting); or • Be bedridden; or • Live in a nursing home and be physically or mentally incapacitated; or • Have poor eyesight (5/200 corrected visual acuity or less in both eyes). The VA also offers a Housebound Allowance to certain eligible Veterans who are restricted to their residence because of a permanent disability. This additional monthly monetary benefit can be used to help pay for needed care services provided in the Veteran’s home. To apply for either the Aid and Attendance or Housebound benefits, Veterans must send a written statement, including a report from their doctor documenting the need for services, to their Veterans Benefits Administration regional office. Additional Services Aging Veterans are also eligible for several other services. These include a Geriatric Evaluation, which will assess the Veteran’s ability to care for themselves and result in a care plan. Adult Day Health Care programs are available to provide therapeutic services to Veterans in a community setting. The VA also offers Respite Care services to provide caregivers with relief from the demands of caregiving. Skilled home care services are provided by the VA and contract agencies for homebound Veterans. Finally, hospice and palliative care services are offered for terminally ill Veterans. For more information, Veterans and their families should contact their local VA health care facility’s Enrollment Office. Additional information is also available at www.va.gov/healthbenefits and www.myhealth.va.gov or by calling the VA toll-free at 1-877-222-VETS (8387). Information adapted from http://www. va.gov/geriatrics/ and from Health Care Benefits Overview 2012, a publication of the VA available at http://www.va.gov/ healthbenefits/resources/epublications.asp.

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.

HOW TO
understand rental options
what is available and how to qualify According to LeadingAge, formerly the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, a person can rent an apartment either at the market rate or, if his or her income level qualifies, at a lower rate. These apartments are often designed with seniors in mind. For example, there may be railings in bathrooms or power outlets higher up on the wall. Many communities also offer a 24-hour emergency call service and some may also provide different kinds of services such as meals, transportation, social activities and other programs. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funds several rental assistance programs for seniors who qualify. These programs include public housing or low-income housing that is owned and operated by
a local housing authority. To apply for public housing or Section 8 certificates or vouchers, you must go to your housing authority. Each housing authority has a system for accepting applications. Their representatives can explain their system and how to find an available apartment. HUD’s Section 202 program includes apartments where the government provides subsidies directly to owners of qualified properties developed with loans or grants from the federal government. The owners pass along the federal rental assistance subsidy to qualified residents to cover the gap between the resident payment, generally 30 percent of adjusted income, and rent costs. To apply for housing in a privately-owned affordable housing community, a person will have to visit the management office for
each community. Contact your local HUD office to get a list of privately-owned communities near you. Source: http://www.aahsa.org/article. aspx?id=3780

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.

F
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

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.

Assisted Living R e a l-L i f e Story
M
oving to Springwell Senior Living Community in Baltimore, Md., allowed Estelle Greenberg to be close to her only child, Nancy, who lives nearby. The two of them can often be found participating in community events or heading out to run errands. Except for a brief stay in Philadelphia, Estelle has spent her entire life in Baltimore. She completed her education in the Baltimore Public School System. Upon graduation, Estelle entered Sinai School of Nursing. After becoming a Registered Nurse, Estelle wanted to enlist in the armed forces. However, there was a height requirement — a minimum of 5 feet; Estelle was 4’ 11”. She recalls “puffing up” her hair so that she would appear taller when she went in for her test, but it didn’t work. Estelle’s career went in a different direction. Estelle worked for four years in the operating room at South Baltimore General Hospital, which is now known as Harbor Hospital. During this time, she continued her education, completing a certification course at Johns Hopkins University for Operating Room Technicians.
A native of Baltimore, Estelle found the perfect retirement community in her beloved hometown.
One of Estelle’s superiors took note of her skills and work ethic and suggested that she undertake additional studies to become an anesthetist. It was rare for a woman to enter this field, but Estelle did not shy away from the challenge. Soon after, she packed up and headed to Philadelphia for an 8-month program of study to become a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA). When Estelle came home, she returned to South Baltimore General, where her successful career spanned four decades. As a CRNA, Estelle was considered a child specialist; she had a special gift for helping children overcome their fears of
medical procedures. As her young patients were being wheeled away from their parents, they were often screaming and crying. “I would walk beside them and once they were away from their parents, I would look at them and say, “Okay, you don’t have to cry anymore, I am not your parent,’” she recalled. Surprisingly, the children would stop crying and settle down. During her career, Estelle met and married her husband, who was a salesman. The couple had a daughter, Nancy, who followed in her mother’s footsteps. Nancy graduated with her nursing degree from the Villa Julie College, now Stevenson University, and is currently a nurse researcher at the University of Maryland. Since her retirement, Estelle enjoys spending time with her friends at Springwell playing dominoes, Bingo and word games. She is very close to her daughter, and they both enjoy taking in cultural events. Estelle’s advice to young people just venturing out into the working world is to take the time to find something you really like. “If you enjoy what you are doing, you won’t mind getting up and going into work each day,” she said.

HOW TO
choose the right services
valuable issues to consider The 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 injury, medication management, natural disasters, etc.? n What is the annual staff turnover?
What complaint procedures exist? Do policies prevent reprisals? n
Information from the CARF free online publication titled ‘How to Choose Services for Yourself and Your Loved Ones.’ Visit http://www.carf.org/consumer.aspx.
Research a community’s health and safety policies that are in place as related to incidents involving injury, medication management and natural disasters.

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

sustaining hope in the face of cancer n
By Deborah J. Cornwall
Hope is a curious thing. It’s about looking forward to something positive and refusing to give up. It’s about persisting in the face of adversity, even when the odds and the facts seem to be working against you. It’s about creating positive energy that can nourish both body and soul. Interviews with 86 personal caregivers from 19 states who cared for 107 patients ranging in age from 2 to 92 with over 40 different cancers, as well as interactions with dozens of local families affected by cancer revealed that sustaining hope in the face of cancer is both critical and problematic. All of these caregivers agreed that you aren’t your cancer, and that looking beyond the cancer to envision a “new normal” was key to their hope. Their six guiding lights were to:
1. Set realistic goals. Is the feasible objective to become cancer-free, prolong life despite cancer, or help relieve patient pain and anxiety as death approaches? The more realistic the goals, the more likely they are to inspire hope, even if the patient is terminal. 2. Live life while you have it, and create joy every day. No matter how sick, the person you’re caring for will always appreciate a surprise. Maybe it’s a bouquet of the first daffodils of spring, the opportunity to snuggle with a favorite pet, or even a single chocolate-covered strawberry. Creating pleasure for the person with cancer creates positive and hopeful memories for both of you.
3. Preserve perspective. Rob’s wife admits she was having a meltdown about his chordoma diagnosis when she “read about a guy who was killed when his all-terrain vehicle flipped over. I looked at Rob and I realized he’s here right now, and he has a chance, and he feels good, so I can’t dwell on poor me when people can lose a loved one in a flash.” For Carl’s wife, it was about focusing less on what they had lost (independence, control, and their normal life) when Carl lost a leg to bone cancer, but more on what they had left. “He couldn’t control losing his leg, but he could control what he does with the rest of him. We just applied our own optimism; instinctively we wanted to get on with it and not get stuck.” For both, regaining perspective took deliberate choice.

Assisted Living 4. Cultivate humor. Many caregivers found that humor was an important stress reliever, even toward the end of a patient’s life. When he knew he was dying, David told his sister he’d given up buying green bananas. It was black humor, but it lightened the mood. Less morbid humor can be generated by playing games to create captions for cartoons, or watching a funny movie together. 5. Manage information to your advantage. • Know what you’re dealing with. For many patients, information was a source for hope. It might have been clarity about the diagnosis, or treatment options, or a physician’s depth of expertise treating a particular type of cancer. A physician’s candor about the potential consequences of each option and the range of outcomes he’s achieved stimulated hope, even in the most serious of situations. Mimi was a stage 3 pancreatic cancer patient whose options were limited after two years of rigorous chemotherapy and radiation. Committed to evidence-based medicine, she found a transplant surgeon willing to do ground-breaking 20-hour three-team “ex vivo resection” surgery removing six abdominal organs so he could remove a deadly tumor that was wrapped around several of her blood vessels and vital organs. Once Mimi knew what she was dealing with, her rigorous research created optimism. The first person in the world to experience this surgery, Mimi is alive and well today, one year after making medical history.
• Make deliberate choices when accessing information. Several patient / caregiver teams found that they each had a different appetite for data, and so one would become a data fiend while the other kept more distance and only accessed the broader data about the disease and its prognosis when specific information was needed. They preserved hope by being selective. • Interpret data cautiously. Several patient / caregiver teams decided that statistics about the broader patient population with a particular diagnosis weren’t necessarily relevant to them. This wasn’t denial; rather, it was recognition that every projection of aggregate survival rates includes a full range of outcomes, some more desirable than others. René and his wife explained that: “The survival facts [the doctor] gave were tough, so we decided to ignore them because he didn’t say that was true in 100% of the cases. Whatever the low percentage is who live longer, we decided that we’d be in it. Now we’re at four years, so it’s working.”
with pancreatic cancer over 13 years ago. Her dedication to his care and her passion for seeking out clinical trials and breakthroughs in treatment gave him hope and options that kept him alive for 27 months in the face of a diagnosis that offered a six-week death sentence. She describes their experience as a victory, in spite of his death, and she’s been a passionate advocate for cancer research funding ever since. Decisions about when a patient will die, and where, are part of creating hope for loved ones. As Tim’s wife said, “We had to be ready because we had to go on. There was a point where it’s all about the people who live. It’s not about the person who dies. It’s about what will make it OK for the ones who live.” Orchestrating the readiness of children for such an outcome is part of this planning. The Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky said “to live without hope is to cease to live.” Hope feeds the courage to keep going during challenging and uncertain treatments. It’s what allows family cancer caregivers to carry on every day. It’s what allows people like Mimi to 6.

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.

Use this checklist to judge and compare the nursing homes you call and/or visit • Is the facility Medicare-certified and/or Medicaid-certified? • Are the home and its current administrator licensed? • What type of education and training do staff members have? • How many Registered Nurses (RNs) and Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) are on staff? • Are background checks conducted on all staff members? • Is there a care plan developed for every
resident? • Are care plans reviewed and updated by providers and family members? • Is the interaction between residents and staff members warm and respectful? • Are public areas and resident rooms clean and comfortable? • Are there a variety of activities available for residents? • What is the staff to patient ratio at night and on weekends?
• Do staff members respond to residents’ requests for assistance promptly? • Are there enough staff members available to assist residents during meals? Does the food in the dining room look and smell appealing? • Are there handrails in hallways and grab bars in bathrooms? • Are exits clearly marked? • Is the facility outfitted with smoke detectors and sprinklers?

need to know the steps one could take to get power of attorney over someone who is not mentally stable to take care of their affairs. What are the legal actions that have to be taken? —Katie
Dear Katie, When you are dealing with someone with a mental disorder who is not cognitively stable, several steps need to be addressed before any legal actions are taken. First, the person has to be professionally diagnosed with a mental disorder or dementia, depending on the specific case. Usually the elderly person’s primary physician, who has often known the person over a long period of time, will be the first to examine them. The doctor may then recommend additional testing as well as a second opinion from a psychiatrist or another professional deemed necessary. The next step is to deal with the diagnosis via any appropriate medication(s). Part of this process is to make sure that the elder is not experiencing any adverse side effects, which may be exacerbating the
confusion or mental instability, from a particular medication or a combination of medications. Once it is thoroughly established that the elderly person has been properly diagnosed, and that all measures available to stabilize the individual have been exhausted, then other steps can be taken to help keep this senior safe and out of harm’s way. Once it is established that the senior is no longer capable of caring for himself or herself, legal action can be taken for an appropriate individual to be given legal authority to make decisions on behalf of the individual, aka Power of Attorney. An elder care lawyer, an attorney who has been specially trained in elder issues, is usually best for this situation. There is a National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (http://www. naela.org), if you need help finding one. They usually charge by the hour and those fees can add up quickly, so make sure that you have an idea of what you want to accomplish before you make an appointment. The more prepared you are, the smoother the process will be. Do some research in advance, and have any questions or notes written out. It will also be worthwhile to find out if there is a flat rate for any particular

services. Also consider that regulations may vary from state to state. Keep in mind that there may be many emotional 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 long-term 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 help.

patient and family may turn to hospice care when the goals of patient care have switched from curing to comforting. Hospice involves a special system of supportive services, including pain and symptom management, social services, and emotional and spiritual support. Any individual of any age with a diagnosis of a terminal disease may turn to hospice. How 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 or less who may choose to continue their curative treatments. Hospice is unique in that care and support are provided to the entire family, not just the patient. A team of skilled professionals and volunteers work to serve the special needs of everyone in-

Hospice team members focus primarily on managing the patient’s pain and symptoms with medication, medical supplies and equipment. Other services, such as speech and physical therapy, are available if necessary. If managing the symptoms within the home becomes impossible, hospice providers can offer short-term inpatient care.

HOW TO
pay for hospice
financial assistance is available Most hospice services are fully or partially covered by Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers or prepaid health plans. The non-medical services available in Montgomery County are free and delivered by a staff of trained volunteers. The National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization notes that, “Eighty percent of people who use hospice care are over the age of 65, and are thus entitled to the services offered by the Medicare Hospice Benefit. This benefit covers virtually all aspects of hospice care with little out-ofpocket expense.” To receive the Medicare Hospice Benefit, patients must be eligible for Medicare Part A, have a terminal disease or condition with a less than six months prognosis, and sign a document certifying that they are choosing hospice care instead of routine
Patients may only receive covered benefits from a Medicare-approved hospice program. In addition to Medicare’s coverage, services are also generally covered by Medicaid or private insurers.

Alzheimer’s
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. Every individual may experience one or more of these signs in different degrees. If you notice any of them, it is recommended you see a doctor. 1. Memory loss that disrupts daily life One of the most common signs of Alzheimer’s is memory loss, especially forgetting recently learned information. Others include forgetting important dates or events; asking for the same information over and over; and relying on memory aides (e.g., reminder notes or electronic devices) or family members for things they used to handle on their own. What’s typical? Sometimes forgetting names or appointments, but remembering them later. 2. Challenges in planning or solving problems Some people may experience changes in their ability to develop and follow a plan or work with numbers. They may
5. Trouble understanding visual images and spatial relationships For some people, having vision problems is a sign of Alzheimer’s. They may have difficulty reading, judging distance and determining color or contrast. In terms of perception, they may pass a mirror and think someone else is in the 3. Difficulty completing familiar room. They may not realize they are the tasks at home, at work or at person in the mirror. leisure What’s typical? Vision changes related to cataracts.

Alzheimer’s
alzheimer’s: the facts and figures According to the Alzheimer’s Association’s 2013 Alzheimer’s Disease Facts and Figures report, one in three seniors dies with Alzheimer’s or another dementia in the United States. The new report shows that while deaths from other major diseases continue to experience significant declines, Alzheimer’s deaths continue to rise – increasing 68 percent from 2000-2010. Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States and is the only leading cause of death without a way to prevent, cure or even slow its progression. Based on 2010 data, Alzheimer’s was reported as the
underlying cause of death for 83,494 individuals – individuals who died from Alzheimer’s. Alzheimer’s Association 2013 Facts and Figures reveals that in 2013 an estimated 450,000 people in the United States will die with Alzheimer’s. The true number of deaths caused by Alzheimer’s is likely to be somewhere between the officially reported number of those dying from and those dying with Alzheimer’s. More than 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease. Without the development of medical breakthroughs that prevent, slow or stop the disease, by 2050, the number

Alzheimer’s
HOW TO
choose alzheimer’s care
a special care residence may be the right option Certification standards for nursing homes and adult care residences do not specifically address special care units. You will need to rely on your own judgment when considering a special care unit. Visit more than one special care unit and compare them. Use all your senses when you visit — sight, smell and hearing are all important. Be sensitive to the overall atmosphere and how the staff interacts with the residents. Ask about the number of staff on duty at all times and find out about any special training they have had. Generally, the more staff available, the higher the quality of care. Some reports find a daytime ratio of six residents to one staff person to be adequate in a special care unit; others feel that a ratio of eight to
one can also result in quality care. At night, when residents are in bed, a higher patient to staff ratio may be fine. Get a written description of the services and programs offered by any special care unit along with the charges or fees associated. This description should clearly explain to you how the special care unit differs from the rest of the nursing home or assisted living facility. It should emphasize special training the staff receives and describe the environment. Before choosing a special care unit, you should be confident that the higher price charged for care in the unit will actually result in better care for your relative. You may find that your relative can be adequately cared for in a regular unit.
Finally, talk with someone about special care units. Your state ombudsman, your local chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association or your local Area Agency on Aging are all good resources. They may be able to provide you with a more detailed consumer checklist to help you compare special care units. All dementia special care units should focus on the individual needs of the resident. Care plans should be developed, implemented and reviewed often. All patients should be treated with respect and dignity in a physical environment that encourages independence while promoting safety. Researching special care residences can ensure your loved one will receive the proper support he/she needs.

HOW TO
remain at home
receive assistance while enjoying the comforts of home Home care can include a wide variety of healthcare and supportive services from professional nursing and home health aide services to physical, occupational, respiratory and speech therapies. An advancing industry, home healthcare is essentially skilled nursing care and certain other forms of healthcare that you get in your home for the treatment of an illness or injury. It is an important option to consider regardless of one’s age or health conditions. Options in Home Care An incredibly diverse field, home care includes companion care, home healthcare, skilled nursing or hospice care. COMPANION CARE is provided by caregivers or companions, who serve as surrogate family members, performing many of the tasks that family members would
typically complete. Assistance from companion caregivers can include meal preparation, medication reminders, laundry, light housekeeping, shopping, transportation and assistance with exercising. The overall goals of companion care providers are to ensure that the home environment remains safe and that the individual has a companion to spend time with when family is not available. HOME HEALTHCARE is for those who are no longer able to perform all of the functions of daily living by themselves but who do not require skilled medical services. A home health aide can help with activities of daily living (ADLs), which include bathing, dressing, transferring, eating and toileting. Additional services generally include meal preparation, mobility exercises, housekeeping, laundry,

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

HOW TO
pay for home care
understanding costs can help with decision making 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 Medicarecertified agency. Prices for home health care also range from $15-$25 per hour. Long-term care insurance policies may cover companion care and home health care. If you qualify for Medicaid, a government program for low-income individuals, it may subsidize some of your home care needs. Since laws vary from
state to state, you will need to contact your local Area Agency on Aging for more information concerning government benefits. Skilled nursing care will be paid for by Medicare as long as it is determined to be “intermittent skilled care,” which includes occupational, respiratory, speech and physical therapy. To be covered, care must be ordered by a doctor. Individuals who meet income requirements may be eligible to receive skilled nursing services through Medicaid. Major medical health insurance will also cover Individuals who meet income requirements a limited number of skilled home vis- may be eligible to receive skilled nursing its.

“I
don’t really think of them as employees; I think of them as family,” said Linda Eisenbrandt of the team of caregivers from Access Nursing Services that cares for her son, Brian. Brian has Duchenne Muscular Distrophy, a rare disease that strikes boys around the age of 13. Brian’s muscles slowly started to disintegrate as a result of the disease. Now 30, he is paraplegic and needs a variety of respiratory and physical therapies to help him remain as active as possible. “Brian loves to play on the computer. He has a graphic tablet with a pen he can control with his fingers, and he is really good with it,” said Linda. “He also loves sports and going to sporting events.” As Brian’s condition has worsened, Linda and her husband, Fred, have increasingly needed the assistance of inhome caregivers.

for Brian. However, several years ago, they started to experience some problems with scheduling caregivers. “I was getting really frustrated because the nurses would call out from work, and I would have no back up,” Linda recalled. As the co-owner of a women’s consignment shop in Baltimore, Linda needed more reliable help, so she could focus on building her business. Linda turned to her friend Tom Weadock, Senior Vice President of Access Nursing Services for help. “Tom told me that they would love to help us, and it has been great since then,” Linda said. “I am never left stranded now, and all the staff is fabulous and responsive.” In addition to their reliability, Linda and her family have also benefitted from the professionalism and compassion of Access
Nursing’s caregivers. “I am so grateful to have these people in our lives. They are so capable and so good in emergencies. They have also really become a part of our family. Some of them are truly Brian’s best friends,” she said. Access Nursing’s team of caregivers provides care for Brian 16 hours a day, including a day shift and a night shift. Their care allows Linda and Fred to work and rest and still enjoy time with Brian and their two other children. “The nurses do everything,” Linda says. “They order his medications and his medical supplies. They do his respiratory therapy and physical therapy. They feed him breakfast and lunch. There really isn’t anything they don’t do.” Having qualified caregivers in their home allows Linda and Fred to focus on enjoying their family. The couple frequently goes out to dinner with Brian, and they also plan periodic vacations. “Every summer,
we go to a beach house that my husband’s family owns that is accessible for Brian. It’s just wonderful to get away, and he loves it,” Linda said. “We also regularly visit my family in Scranton, and my parents and sisters have all made their houses accessible as well, so we can go wherever we want. Brian loves spending time with his cousins.” When they are at home, Linda and her family are grateful for the peace of mind that Access Nursing provides. In addition to the regular caregivers, the company also has a nurse coordinator who checks in with the family and the caregivers periodically to make sure Brian’s care plan is up-to-date and everything is going well. “Ultimately, I’m just excited to have them, and I hope other people will be too,” Linda concluded. While the Eisenbrandts have faced their fair share of challenges, they are enormously grateful for the team of quality caregivers who are now a part of the family.

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

HOW TO
make aging in place possible
professionals can help modify the home Countless studies have shown that homeowners overwhelmingly prefer to age in a familiar place, but when daily life becomes too much to manage, substantial home alternations may be necessary. Certified Aging-In-Place Specialists (CAPS) can help reconcile the need for a familiar environment with the need to prioritize safety and accessibility. Such specialists have been trained in the specific needs of the older adult population and unique ways to modify homes. They are also experts in designing 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

crease access and improve maneuverability include brighter lights, bath and shower grab bars, higher countertops, multifunctional first floor master 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 aesthetically-pleasing, 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.

the impact of hearing loss By Gora Ganguli
H
earing loss is an evergrowing problem that robs people of their quality of life. Because it takes away the capacity to communicate and reduces social interaction between people, studies have shown that untreated loss leads to increasing isolation, depression and even dementia. Always thought of as an “elderly person’s problem” it is, in fact, occurring at much earlier stages of life than ever before, due primarily to the ever-increasing noise levels of modern day life and the pervasive use of portable audio devices like phones and music players. New studies are showing occurrence of hearing loss in average people in their early 20s, for the first time in recorded history. Studies have also shown that those in the workplace with hearing loss tend to earn less than those with similar qualifications who have normal hearing. As the onset of hearing loss occurs in younger and younger people, the consequences for society will be economic as well as social and mental health related. A little-known fact about hearing
Hearing loss should be treated early to prevent the loss of ‘sound vocabulary’ in the brain.
loss is that if left untreated, it causes the auditory functions of the brain to atrophy. Sounds that are not heard, over a prolonged period, result in the loss of “sound vocabulary” in the brain. That is, the brain eventually forgets the association of that sound with the source. For example, when we don’t hear the
high-pitched chirping of birds because we have a hearing loss in the high frequencies, we will eventually forget that sound and its source. If later in life, hearing devices are used, what was once recognizable as birds chirping is no longer recognizable and simply sounds like annoying noise. This is one of the main

Home Car e reasons many people have difficulty in adapting to hearing aids if the loss is untreated for long periods. Despite these significant impacts on life, less than a quarter of the people that could benefit from hearing devices use them. The reasons are mainly about money and stigma. The prices of hearing aids range from $4,000 to over $7,000 a pair, certainly a significant purchase decision, especially for someone on fixed income. Having been marketed for decades to seniors, because most hearing loss was seen to be age-related, it is natural that hearing aids have become synonymous with aging and, hence, a stigma for people who are experiencing hearing loss at a much younger age due to environmental factors (like too many rock concerts!). This new generation of the hearing impaired are averse to devices that resemble hearing aids. The effects of the early stages of hearing loss are seen (or heard!) in the
increasingly louder volume settings of television, much to the chagrin of other family members; difficulty in conversing over the phone; enjoying music; and difficulty in following conversations in noisy social environments like restaurants. Cost and stigma may still dissuade people from purchasing hearing aids for these situations, but assistive devices such as the Personal Audio Enhancer are certainly worth considering. At a fraction of the cost of hearing aids and a completely different look and style, VitaSound’s Personal Audio Enhancer is a great solution for the typical hearing difficulties and may just help to preserve the brain’s “sound vocabulary” that much longer.
Quick Facts • In North America, 1 in 9 individuals
(11.3 percent) of the total population suffer from a hearing loss.
• 80 percent of hearing aid users wear
two aids and 20 percent wear one aid
• Up to 20 percent of hearing aids are returned, due to cost and performance
• On average, people will experience seven plus years of loss before considering a hearing aid purchase
• Hearing aid users, on average,
replace their aids every three to four years (first time users account for only 10 percent of annual sales in the industry)
• The average age of hearing aid
purchasers is 69 years. 60 percent are male and 40 percent are female.

application of universal design concepts By Michael Leite, P.E.
U n
niversal Design calls for the construction and/or modification of living environments to make them accessible to individuals of all ages and abilities. Applying Universal Design concepts to real-world living spaces often requires careful planning and expert knowledge. Most Universal Design modification projects involve the retrofitting of an existing space with all of its limitations, rather than the construction of a new space in which the designer has an empty palette. To be more affordable, the design must accommodate the specific needs and disabilities of the intended occupant, rather than meeting the needs of the general population. Expert designers can create customized, functional spaces that improve the lifestyles of occupants by following the principles of Universal Design. The first consideration in creating a universally designed space is mobility. This involves the selection of flooring that allows the resident to move with-

out tripping and falling. It also includes the installation of grab bars in strategic locations to enable residents to get up and down and maintain their balance. Lighting is also an important consideration when designing accessible spaces. Individuals with impaired vision often require special task lighting, in addition to quality general illumination. A thorough analysis can determine both the amount of light needed and the best light source. Different individuals need different light sources and varying light levels to achieve optimum vision. Having addressed the issues of mobility and lighting, Universal Design specialists will next review bathroom fixtures and controls. The installation of a comfort height toilet with an integral bidet function can facilitate personal hygiene. The shower and bathtub should have accessible controls. Other fixtures, like the sink, should be positioned to allow residents to move about freely. Universal Design principles can also improve functionality in the kitchen. Appliances should be selected based on
the user’s physical limitations. This includes both the major appliances and the portable appliances. The design should be based on workflow in the kitchen, as well as personal safety considerations. When designing a space that is accessible for all, the final consideration should be the general living area. Using a variety of sensors, remote controls and alarms can ensure the comfort and safety of residents. From heating and cooling controls to universal remotes and emergency response systems, these electronic devices are easy-to-use and can help simplify daily tasks. Applying the principles of Universal Design can make the home environment safer, more accessible and more enjoyable to live in. With the help of a design expert, most individuals can retrofit their existing homes to incorporate features that will enhance their daily life. Michael Leite is a Test and Evaluation Engineer for DigiFlight, Inc. and co-owner of M. Quinn Designs.

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
When seniors experience depression and a chronic medical condition together, the depression can aggravate the condition and interfere with successful treatment.
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, 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 Continued on page 136

advocating home care trade association promotes in-home care
T
he Maryland National Capital Homecare Association (MNCHA) is the only trade association for the home care sector in Maryland. It represents both non-profit and for-profit health care providers in Maryland and Washington, DC including: • Medicare-certified home health agencies, • Private duty agencies and registries, • Home medical equipment businesses, and • Related businesses that provide services to providers listed above. MNCHA members are the executives and decision makers of the industry, but staff members of each member organization have access to a full array of educational, government affairs, training, meeting and membership services. Membership includes all the major hospital systems, non-profits and businesses in Maryland involved in homecare. MNCHA’s prestigious Board of Directors directs the activities of the association, along with its active committees and membership. MNCHA is a primary provider of information and training for the home care sector and last year provided 12 educational conferences or meetings on clinical, service delivery or business issues. MNCHA meetings are open to nonmembers, as are three Leadership Fo-
rums each year, which are attended by members and non-members. MNCHA is a 501(c) 6 non-profit incorporated in the state of Maryland. MNCHA members believe that in a time of rapidly escalating healthcare costs, patients deserve to be treated with dignity and be given a chance to receive care in their homes surrounded by their friends and loved ones. Home care reduces costs; provides quality services to patients at home; and assists family members in caring for the aged, disabled or injured at home. MNCHA is dedicated to: • Advocating for legislation which im-
proves the delivery of and appropriate funding for home care products or services, • Promoting high standards of home care products or services, • Promoting appropriate utilization of home care products or services, • Providing top quality educational, clinical and other training for both members and non-members, and • Representing the Maryland and Washington, DC home care sector at the national level.

HOW TO
locate resources
help is available in your neighborhood and across the country Government agencies are an invaluable resource and can serve as clearinghouses for much needed information and provide a vital connection to programs and services. The Older Americans Act (OAA) of 1965 created the Administration on Aging (AoA), an agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and a national network of agencies that promote and protect the health and well-being of older adults. Amendments to the OAA provided grants to Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs), giving them the resources to identify local needs and plan and fund local programs. The Department of Health & Human Services describes this comprehensive network as the National Aging Network. The National Aging Network serves seven million Americans age 60 and over, as well as The key components of this network, 325,000 caregivers. which serves seven million Americans age 60 and over as well as 325,000 care- responsible for providing grants to worth- tions.

marci’s medicare answers Dear Marci, Does Medicare cover shots and vaccines? —Job
Dear Job, Yes, Medicare covers some shots and vaccines. However, the way Medicare covers them depends on which shot or vaccine you need. Medicare Part D, also known as the Medicare prescription drug benefit, covers most shots and vaccines that you get. However, Medicare Part B, the medical insurance part of Medicare, may cover certain shots and vaccines in some situations. Specifically, Part B covers vaccines to prevent the flu, pneumonia and hepatitis B. Keep in mind that Part B will cover your hepatitis B shot only if you are at medium-to-high risk for hepatitis B. If you are at low risk for hepatitis B, your shot will be covered under Part D. Medicare Part B also covers shots, after you have been exposed to a dangerous virus or disease. For example, if you step on a rusty nail, Medicare Part B will cover your tetanus shot to treat the spread of the tetanus bacteria. All other shots or vaccines, other than the ones mentioned above, are generally covered under Part D. Medicare Part D plans must include all commercially available vaccines on their formulary, or list of covered drugs, including
the vaccine for shingles. Before you get a shot or vaccine, check with your Part D plan to see where you should get your shot at the lowest cost.

marci’s medicare answers Dear Billy, Yes, if you are eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid, you can have both. Medicare is the federal health insurance program for disabled individuals and people 65 years or older. Medicaid is a federal and state health insurance program for people with low incomes. While both programs are different, they can work together to provide comprehensive health care coverage. People who have both Medicare and Medicaid are oftentimes referred to as dual-eligibles. If you receive health care services covered by Medicare, Medicare will pay first on those health care services and Medicaid may pay for any remaining costs. If you receive health care services that are strictly excluded from Medicare coverage, Medicaid may pay for those health care services depending on your state Medicaid program’s benefits and rules. For general information on Medicare coverage of health care services or items, you can go online and visit www.medicare.gov or call 800-MEDICARE. For more information on your state’s Medicaid benefits, you should contact your state Medicaid program directly.

Dear Gretchen, If your mother meets certain requirements, Medicare may cover the following home health services: • Skilled nursing services, such as tube feedings and wound care • Skilled therapy services, such as physical therapy and speech therapy • Home health aide services, such as help bathing or dressing • Medical social services ordered by a doctor to help with social and emotional concerns related to an illness • Medical supplies, such as wound dressings • Durable medical equipment Medicare will only pay for the home health services listed above, if your mother is homebound (i.e. it is extremely difficult for her to leave her home and she requires help to do so) and has a need for skilled nursing care or skilled therapy services. Skilled care is when the care can only be provided by a licensed nurse or therapist.

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.
• 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 long hospitalization and recovery process. For others, falls may result in a loss of independence, or in the most severe cases, a loss of life.
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 injuAvoiding Falls ries, according to the CDC. • The death rates from falls among One of the simplest ways that older older men and women have risen sharply adults can reduce their risk of falling is over the past decade (CDC). by exercising.

For many seniors, living an increasingly sedentary lifestyle is one of the biggest contributing factors to falling. The CDC highly recommends exercise programs and classes, such as Tai Chi, to help improve and maintain balance. Of course, seniors should consult with their doctors before beginning any exercise routine. Medication interactions are another major risk factor for falls. Seniors should check with their doctor or pharmacist periodically to ensure that their medications are not causing unwanted interactions or dangerous side effects. Many prescription and over-the-counter medicines can cause drowsiness or dizziness, which might increase the risk of falling. Seniors should also make sure to have their vision checked by an eye doctor at least once a year. Eyeglass prescriptions should be reviewed annually and updat-
they enlist the help of a professional for a comprehensive home safety evaluation or just make some minor changes, seniors should be aware of the dangers in their own home. One quick and easy safety improvement all adults can make is to reduce the clutter in their home, focusing particularly on items that may be tripping hazards. Additionally, homeowners can consider adding grab bars and railings and enhancing lighting options.
There are several steps that can be taken to identify and correct potential fall hazards in or around the home.

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
Tell them you saw it in the SourceBook
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.
