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 “The Circle of Life” that has continually brought D. Michael Peasley and Douglas A. Tweddale together and made them such important players in the storied history of Foulkeways at Gwynedd, a Continuing

The Circle of Life

Care Retirement Community (CCRC) in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. Both men are Quakers, and members of Gwynedd Friends Meeting. They have also both served as CEO of Foulkeways at Gwynedd and caretakers of its proud history (see page 22). Our feature stories in this edition highlight the importance—and prevalence—of resident involvement at retirement communities. For instance, at White Horse Village, a CCRC in Newtown Square, Pa., the community’s industrious woodworkers are “Making a Buzz” (see page 32). From building shelves to handcrafting tables, these dedicated hobbyists and professionals are always willing to lend a hand. They work for free and donate the proceeds from many of their efforts to their beloved community and their fellow residents. Meanwhile, the residents of Dunwoody Village are the proud keepers of “A Living Legacy” and are busily preparing to celebrate the 40th anniversary of their historic community (see page 38). With events ranging from a barn dance to an open house at the on-campus history studio, the celebration will include something for everyone. At Kendal~Crosslands Communities, residents are actively participating in

preserving “A Natural Inheritance” (see page 48). Conservation efforts dating back to William Penn have been maintained and expanded by the Quakers who opened Kendal~Crosslands Communities, a 500acre property featuring arboretum-like grounds. Finally, In “The Art of Appreciation,” readers will meet Dr. Hal and Linda Robinson, residents of Waverly Heights, a CCRC in Gladwyne, Pa. Since retiring, both Hal and Linda have been able to dedicate more time to artistic pursuits. He is now a successful painter, and she is an instructor at the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia (see page 96). None of these families walked this road alone. They all worked closely with a network of trusted providers to create a successful plan for retirement. 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.

The Circle of Life

I

By Nancy Nolan Photography by Jim Greipp / Pau Hana Productions

n early 1986, Douglas Tweddale came to Foulkeways at Gwynedd, a Continuing Care Retirement Community in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, to fill an opening for an Administrator, vacated the previous year by Michael Peasley. Twenty-eight years later, on January 3, 2014, Michael Peasley stepped into the CEO position, surrendered by Douglas Tweddale upon his retirement. Ah, “The Circle of Life” and how it unfolds. Looking back, the lives of D. Michael Peasley and Douglas A. Tweddale have intertwined, merged, conjoined and crisscrossed for years! Both are Quakers, and members of Gwynedd Friends Meeting. Professionally, they have served on numerous boards together. Each became the CEO of a Quakerbased retirement community; Mike as Executive Director of Medford Leas, in Medford, New Jersey, and Doug as the CEO of Foulkeways at Gwynedd. In 2000, while Doug was doing volunteer work as a Site Surveyor for the Continuing Care Accreditation Commission (CCAC), he was sent to evaluate Shenandoah Valley Westminster-Canterbury, in Winchester, Virginia. Want to wager a friendly bet as to who was serving as their President/ CEO at the time? Yep, you guessed it; it was Mike! Mike ALSO served as a volunteer surveyor for CCAC, but was never sent to survey Foulkeways. (Are you beginning

to notice a pattern here, as each man moves in and out of the other’s life?) Doug and Mike were both influential in the formation of the Peace Church Risk Retention Program, a self-insurance organization established by members from Continuing Care Retirement Communities affiliated with the Church of the Brethren, the Mennonites and the Quakers. Both men attended the same national conferences on a yearly basis, representing the interests of their separate communities, and invariably setting time aside to share their favorite cuisine, Moroccan! Both Doug and Mike are highly motivated, well-educated professionals, who are considered experts in the field of senior living and share a passion for excellence. In 2006, Mike was asked to join the Board of Trustees at Foulkeways at Gwynedd. His history with the community had begun even before it officially opened in November 1967. He had spent many weekends during his youth in the sales office of Pennsylvania’s first Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) and the first Quaker CCRC in the country. In 1965, as his mother, Gina, handled inquiries from potential residents, she explained her son’s presence by deeming him the “sample grandson” in the “sample” apartment. In 2009, Doug and The Foulkeways Board, now under

Chandler Hall, Personal Care for Persons We Care About. Ask Anne Welsh about personal care at Chandler Hall and she’ll tell you about the convenience of being driven right to her doctor’s door when she has an appointment. But she’ll also tell you about the pastry chef who always has time to share a special recipe. You can also expect her to talk about the way Chandler Hall staff members check on her every night out of real affection and concern. She’ll also probably mention how Chandler Hall gives her a chance to live the active life she’s always lived, whether it’s volunteering for telephone duty, watching on-site performances, or being involved in several of our resident’s committees.

She’s sure to talk about the fun and friendship that comes with a Halloween party or Thanksgiving dinner as well. Yes, ask Anne about Chandler Hall and you’re sure to get an answer as individual as she is. Because the care we share with our residents, from doctor visits to pastry secrets, is more than just first quality. It’s personal.

Making a Buzz By Christy Brudin

T

he saws hum. The drills purr. The hammers bang. The woodworkers are making a buzz again. In the Woodshop at White Horse Village, a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) in Newtown Square, Pa., it is rarely quiet. Industrious woodworkers are going about their various tasks—from building shelves to handcrafting tables. Some of them are hobbyists, others professionals, but they all work for free and donate the proceeds of their efforts to the White Horse Village Endowment Fund or Residents’ Association. Most of the craftsmen’s philanthropic efforts benefit their beloved community and their fellow residents. Since its inception nearly 25 years ago, White Horse Village has been home to two woodshops, and carpentry continues to be a popular activity among residents. Although most of the participants are men, some female residents have gotten in on the action over the years. Today, most of the work going on in the wood shop is to benefit the White Horse Village Resident Reserve Fund. The woodshop has contributed more than $75,000 to the community through the years. The talented woodworkers are also always willing and able to lend a hand to a neighbor in need of a shelf or a furniture repair. While most of the projects benefit White Horse Village, the woodworkers have also taken on some interesting—and unusual—projects to help the larger community. For instance, several volunteer woodworkers have constructed bone boxes— boxes used by University of Pennsylvania medical students to hold bones from cadavers used for research. This past winter, the woodworkers partnered with Swarthmore College and Widener University to build Gamelan cabinets for Stetser Elementary School in Chester, Pa. A Gamelan is a set of traditional Indonesian instruments, and the custom cabinet was built to safely house the unique instruments. Over the years, the woodworkers have also helped with both preservation and environmental efforts. They constructed historic replicas of colonial water jugs and benches that are used at the Colonial Pennsylvania Plantation in Ridley Creek State Park, which is adjacent to the campus. Nearby Edgmont Township received custom cabinets to house their town’s archives. Finally, the woodworkers have been instrumental in the promotion of the statewide bluebird trail. Once an endangered species, bluebirds have returned to the east coast as a result of the efforts of various conservation groups. White Horse’s woodworkers have constructed and maintained 14 bluebird houses on campus. These houses keep the beautiful birds safe from predators, and are now monitored by a dedicated group of residents. The woodworkers also constructed and donated many bluebird houses to neighboring Ridley Creek State Park and Edgmont Township.

White Horse Village woodworkers: FRONT - Phil Voltz, Bill Erb and George Garman; BACK - Charlie Bates, Matt Laine and Anne Nichols.

Even while taking on outside projects, the woodworkers are still always ready to help at home. Their efforts were essential to the recent renovations to the White Horse Village Clubhouse. With their help, the community was able to salvage and repair much of the existing wood furniture—saving thousands of dollars. The newly refinished benches and tables perfectly complement the beautiful new pieces that were purchased as part of the renovation. The woodworkers have also been essential to the growth and expansion of another White Horse Village institution— the Village Singers. An 80-member chorus, the Singers are the pride of the community, and they continue to grow in both numbers and professionalism. A major boost to their development came when a local chorus offered to donate their library of choral music to the Singers. While the group gratefully accepted the donation, they quickly realized that storing such a large volume of music would be a challenge. “We had all the music envelopes stacked in a helter-skelter fashion,” recalled Kay Stretton, co-director of the chorus. “After we received a donation to purchase wood and supplies, two master craftsmen from the Woodshop volunteered to design and build a superb library, with floor to ceiling shelves, a builtin desk, and a work table, which were then painted by their colleague. The result was spectacular!” One project that never seems to end is the woodshop’s work for Octofair, the Resident Association’s largest annual fund-

raising event. The money raised during Octofair covers programs and activities for the following year; last year, the event raised more than $20,000. Throughout the year, the woodworkers make crafts, toys and gifts to sell at the fair. They also create an intricate dollhouse every year for the accompanying auction. The house is completely furnished and every room is painted, wall papered and carpeted. The projects the woodworkers take on for White Horse Village and the surrounding community are seemingly endless. The dedicated craftsmen are already preparing for Octofair 2014. These talented and generous individuals have become such an essential part of the community that nearly every day someone at White Horse Village says, “Ask the woodshop; they can fix it!” And they do. And that’s what all the buzz is about.

A Living Legacy

E

By Christy Brudin

veryone wants to leave a legacy. Whether it’s a family business, an accomplished offspring or a collection of worldly goods, most people strive to leave an impression on the world. While many people will succeed in making their mark, only a select few leave behind a legacy that continues to grow and thrive for generations: a living legacy. William Hood Dunwoody left a legacy behind that has not only lived; it has flourished. A humble man with a deep respect for life and an appreciation for all mankind, Mr. Dunwoody applied these ideals by founding a home for convalescent men. In 1974, this home became Dunwoody Village, one of the Delaware Valley’s first continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs). In fact, the long history of Dunwoody Village, which is located in Newtown Square, Pa., can be traced all the way back to a land grant made by William Penn in 1681. Today, the residents of Dunwoody Village are the proud keepers of this legacy. This year marks the 40th anniversary of the founding of Dunwoody Village, and the residents are commemorating the milestone with a year-long celebration. With events ranging from a barn dance to an open house at the on-campus history studio, the celebration will include something for everyone. “To have this historical perspective is amazing. It is so exciting that we can trace our lineage all the way back to 1681,” noted Norma Winther, the chair and founder of the community’s history committee. “It’s fun to spend this time remembering how we got started and important to reflect on our goals,” added Pat McCarter, who served on Dunwoody Village’s Board of Trustees before becoming a resident. Like many of their fellow residents, both women are proud of Dunwoody’s long history of providing an active and engaging lifestyle —a history they both benefit from in the present. Norma moved to Dunwoody Village nearly five years ago, shortly after her husband of 57 years passed away. Admitting that an emotional pull was her primary deciding factor, she said, “Dunwoody just felt right; it was like a comfortable, old shoe from day one.” Dunwoody also stood out for Norma because of its wide range of entertainment and activity programs. “Most of the programs here are run by the residents, and I felt that since I really liked the diversity of programs, I’d also like the people who created them,” she said. From live musical performances to lectures by college professors, Dunwoody’s residents have no problem keeping their

calendars full. In addition to special events, the community also offers a host of regular activities ranging from bridge to aerobics to woodworking to swimming. For Pat, the decision to move to Dunwoody was easy. “From my time on the board, I had a pretty good feel for what Dunwoody was all about. I liked what I saw then, and I still do,” she noted. One of the primary draws for her was the community’s homelike environment and picturesque location. “The campus has a country feel, even though we can walk to Newtown Square and several shops,” Pat said. Pat originally moved to Dunwoody with her husband, who passed away several years ago. While losing her husband was difficult, it was made easier by the fact that they had already established themselves in the community. “I never had to be alone. I have so many friends here who had already been

through losing a spouse and could help me,” she explained. Norma has had a similar experience. “I am never lonely,” she said. “In fact, we all wonder how we ever had time to do everything when we worked full time.” One of the things that keeps Norma busiest is her work in the History Studio, an apartment that showcases historic documents. With the help of other residents and employees, Norma has built a mini museum packed with valuable materials that document a distinguished history. Looking at the community’s history shows an impressive cultural shift in what it means to be older, noted Norma. “In the 70s, seniors started to rebel. They no longer wanted to be warehoused in a spare room in a family member’s home and sit and wait to die,” she said. “That was the impetus for communities like this—and that is still the great thing about living at Dunwoody. Here, we can still engage—still learn and grow and live.” The residents at Dunwoody Village are very much engaged and continue to live full and exciting lives. Norma and Pat are just two examples of the hundreds of residents whose dynamic interests and zest for life have made the community such a great place to live for the past 40 years. Each and every resident of Dunwoody Village is, after all, part of a living legacy.

products to keep you active advancements in medical equipment facilitate safe and healthy lifestyles

M

edical supplies and equipment fall into two major categories. Medical supplies generally refers to products that are used to make patients more comfortable and need to be replenished on a regular basis. Durable medical equipment includes items that are long-lasting and are generally one-time purchases. Medical Supplies Medical supply products help individuals cope with and manage the symptoms of illness or old age. Products include specially adapted socks and stockings, skin care products and other helpful items. Daily living aids are also available to help individuals who need

assistance dressing or taking medication. Home health monitors and specialized in-home tests let patients track everything from blood pressure to heart rate. Durable Medical Equipment Durable medical equipment includes items that help elderly or disabled individuals maintain mobility and/or receive necessary care in the comfort of their homes. Durable medical equipment products can be broken into two major categories: mobility products and care assistance products. Mobility products include a wide range of highly advanced equipment to help individuals get around. Scooters are available in a range of styles to meet individualized needs. Many individuals

find outdoor mobility challenging and are searching for a personal mobility vehicle that can help them continue to participate in activities. Lift chairs are another popular mobility product that provide assistance with moving from a sitting to a standing position. Stair lifts allow individuals to move from one level of their home to another with ease, eliminating the dangerous task of climbing and descending stairs. A wide array of wheelchairs, walkers, and canes are also available to help those with mobility assistance needs. Care assistance products include hospital-style beds, equipment to help with transferring and specially formulated mattresses. All of these products Continued on page 61

when to seek behavioral health support What will you do when your loved one is struggling with increased confusion, anxiety or depression? A primary care physician can rule out physical ailments but may not have a clear answer to the question, “Why can’t I remember?” Just as there is a clear diagnosis for heart disease and kidney disease, the same holds true for memory and mood disorders. Everyone’s aim is to live out their lives in a comfortable environment surrounded by family and friends, but this requires maintaining good physical and mental health. Nothing impedes the ability to accomplish activities of daily living more than unrecognized and/or untreated depression, anxiety or confusion. Following the loss of a loved one or

an illness, seniors often feel sad and hopeless. These feelings can be normal. However, key indicators that families should seek support from a professional mental health provider include: • Prolonged feelings of helplessness/hopelessness • Fearfulness • Sleep disturbances • Changes in appetite Steps to Take If a senior is exhibiting unusual behaviors or any of the symptoms mentioned above, a family member should consult a mental health professional, preferably one who has experience and/ or training in geriatrics. A geriatrician and a psychiatrist can work together to outline a treatment plan that includes

ongoing supportive services, and which may not require medication. If needed, medication can be prescribed to help seniors manage the neurochemical changes that are associated with memory and mood disorders. If the prescribed treatment plan is not effective or if exacerbation of the symptoms occurs, families may wish to consider a brief psychiatric hospitalization to evaluate the patient and provide a clear diagnosis or to review the effectiveness of the medications being used. While handling memory and mood disorders in older relatives can be difficult, families can turn to qualified professionals for help. Working with medical and psychiatric professionals, seniors can better manage their symptoms and realize their full potential.

Compassionate, effective geriatric psychiatric care

If the time comes... N

o one likes to talk about it. Or, think about it. But, if the time comes that someone you love requires psychiatric care, Haven Behavioral Hospital of Philadelphia is here. Our highly trained professionals specializing in geriatric psychiatry are led by a psychiatrist; supported by a team of geriatricians, psychiatric nurses, social workers, expressive therapists and other mental health technicians.

Haven programs are comprehensive and highly personalized, and are enhanced by full involvement of the patient’s family, physicians, caregivers and other referral sources. If the time comes, turn to Haven. Call (215) 475-3400 to make a referral or to request more information.

A Ne w Philoso phy on Healthf u l Ag in g E ig h t D i m e n sion s of We llne s s n

By Cher yl Anderson

With Americans living longer than ever – and, therefore, with “retirement living” lasting longer than ever – a new philosophy on healthful aging is emerging. Based upon the concept of “eight dimensions of wellness,” this whole-person philosophy focuses on eight categories of personal wellness development that enable individuals to build rich, fulfilling and healthy lives during their retirement years. 1. Intellectual: Expand your mind. Studies have shown that exercising the brain helps people stay mentally sharp. Join a literacy group. Write your own life biography to pass down to your grandchildren. Take time to explore the endless options for stretching your mind – and your imagination. 2. Physical: Strengthen your body. Your physical health can affect every part of your life. Make maintaining – and even enhancing – your body a top priority. Take a belly dancing class. Join the local gym. Lower your cholesterol with a healthier diet. 3. Emotional: Enhance your outlook on life. Retirees often miss the fulfillment and sense of accomplishment they had during their careers. Others feel the emptiness of their “nests” more strongly than before. Turn to family and friends to help you adjust to changes in lifestyle. This can lead to improving your personal relationships, regaining your zest for life and bolstering your self-esteem. 4. Social: Take advantage of increased free time to connect with people who share your interests. Start a quilting club. Plan a family reunion. Start a water volleyball league. 5. Spiritual: Explore and deepen your beliefs. When entering a new stage of life, many people find the need to draw strength from personal faith. Retirement is a great time to pursue spiritual goals – to find greater purpose in your life. Sing in a choir. Meditate with a yoga class. Participate in a Bible study. Research the beliefs and customs of other faiths. 6. Vocational: During retirement, many people enjoy using their wisdom and experience to give something back to society. Consider using your talents to help other people, which can also help you develop a sense of pride and personal achievement. Mentor a child. Volunteer at a soup kitchen. Play the piano for a local senior center. Or maybe full retirement isn’t for you. Consider starting a business or working part-time. 7. Environmental: Connect with the natural environment. “Going Green,” recycling and living a sustainable lifestyle isn’t just good for the environment. It’s good for people, too. Grow an organic vegetable garden. Participate in recycling programs or community clean-up days. Build a bird house or make a bird feeder to encourage the local bird population. Use chemical-free, non-toxic cleaners. 8. Health Services: Exercising and eating right are just the start. In retirement, preventive healthcare and a goal-oriented approach to wellness are keys to healthful aging. By taking a goal-oriented approach to achieving all eight dimensions of wellness, many seniors are living lives that are more active and fulfilling than they ever could have imagined. Cheryl Anderson is a Life Services Coordinator at The Heritage of Green Hills in Shillington, Pa. She can be reached at canderson@heritagegh.com.

are especially important for individuals who wish to remain in the home environment. Paying for Supplies & Equipment Medicare helps pay the costs for durable medical equipment. According to

Medicare, in order to be covered, “items must be reusable, such as walkers, wheelchairs, or hospital beds.” Durable medical equipment for home health services is paid for under both Medicare Part B and Part A. Medicare coverage varies, and some equipment must be rented. Coverage by private insurance for durable medical equipment will vary greatly depending on the company and the policy. Coverage for medical supplies by both

Medicare and private insurance will depend on the products required and doctors’ recommendations. Finding a Provider Individuals should be comfortable with the professionalism and reliability of the company. Request specific information about costs and product delivery time frames.

sort through items Donating 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 encyclope-

dias, bathroom fixtures such as toilets or sinks, tires, paint, swing sets, water heaters, windows or doors. Household items can also be donated to smaller or locally based charities, such as veterans’ associations, churches and synagogues, children’s charities, and programs for the elderly. Community theaters, women’s shelters, prisons, hospitals, rehabilitation centers and nursing homes also often accept donations of furniture and household goods. You might also inquire at local schools, preschools, day-care centers, art schools, and afterschool programs to see if they could use toys, games, books, desks, art supplies or musical instruments.

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 des-

ignation 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 Continued on page 67

older adult housing market improving consumer confidence boosting sales

uilder confidence in the 55+ housing market for the fourth quarter of 2013 was up sharply, according to the National Association of Home Builders’ (NAHB) latest 55+ Housing Market Index (HMI). All segments of the market—single-family homes, condominiums and multifamily rental—registered strong increases compared to the same quarter a year ago. The single-family index increased 20 points to a level of 48, which is the highest fourth-quarter reading since the inception of the index in 2008 and the ninth consecutive quarter of year over year improvements. “We are seeing continued improvement in the 55+ housing market because consumers have gained confidence in the economy and are able to sell their current homes and move into a new home or an apartment that fits the lifestyle they desire,” said Robert Karen, chairman of NAHB’s 50+ Housing Council and managing member of the Symphony Development Group. “We expect this optimism from builders and developers to carry on into 2014.” There are separate 55+ HMIs for two segments of the 55+ housing market: single-family homes and multifamily condominiums. Each 55+ HMI measures builder sentiment based on a survey that asks if current sales, prospective

buyer traffic and anticipated six-month sales for that market are good, fair or poor (high, average or low for traffic). An index number below 50 indicates that more builders view conditions as poor than good. All of the components of the 55+ single-family HMI showed significant growth from a year ago: present sales climbed 26 points to 53, expected sales for the next six months rose 24 points to 62 and traffic of prospective buyers increased 9 points to 33. The 55+ multifamily condo HMI posted a gain of 16 points to 35, which is

the highest fourth-quarter reading since the inception of the index. All 55+ multifamily condo HMI components increased compared to a year ago. Present sales increased 20 points to 37, expected sales for the next six months increased 15 points to 40 and traffic of prospective buyers increased 9 points to 30. The 55+ multifamily rental indices also showed strong gains in the third quarter. Present production increased 12 points to 43, expected future production rose 12 points to 46, current demand for existing units increased 16 points to 54 and future demand increased 16 points to 55. “The 55+ segment of the housing market contains more discretionary purchases, so as expected it has taken longer for that segment to join the housing recovery,” said NAHB Chief Economist David Crowe. “The 20 point year-over-year increase in 55+ HMI for single-family homes matches earlier gains in the NAHB/Wells Fargo HMI for the overall single-family market and surpasses the more recent gains in the other housing segments.” The National Association of Home Builders is a Washington-based trade association representing professionals involved in all aspects of residential and light commercial construction.

This means a wealthy relative can give away gifts totaling $14,000 per year, per individual, and the benefactor will not incur a tax. If your relative is in a really generous spirit, he can, upon his death, bequeath up to and including $5.34 million with no tax penalty to the recipient. The $5.34 million is a lifetime tax exclusion for gifts. This cap also applies to generation-skipping gifts.

power of attorney an important document for you n By E. Garrett Gummer, III, Esquire (CELA) While your will lets you appoint the person, your executor, who will be responsible for the disposition of your assets after death, a durable power of attorney lets you appoint the person, your agent, who will manage your financial and medical affairs if you become disabled or incapacitated during your life. You can give your agent many powers, including, but not limited to, the power to pay bills, make gifts, make bank deposits, buy and sell real estate and securities, sign income tax returns, begin a legal claim, make important medical decisions, and authorize your admission to a medical or nursing facility. If you or a loved one becomes disabled or incapacitated and there is no power of attorney in place, then the court will have to appoint a guardian to care for you and manage your affairs. This pro-

cess is expensive, because both your attorney and physician are involved, and a court hearing is required. Upon the court’s appointment of a guardian, you will lose certain legal rights to act on your own behalf, and the guardian will be empowered to act for you. You may revoke the powers given to your agent at any time. Since your agent must have actual knowledge of the revocation of the power of attorney for it to be valid, the revocation should be in writing and presented personally or sent via certified mail to your agent. Also, upon your death, your power of attorney will terminate upon actual notice to your agent. Taking the time to prepare your power of attorney now while you are healthy and able to do so will make the process easier for your relatives and loved ones,

who will be responsible for managing your financial and medical affairs in the event of your disability or incapacity. Without a durable power of attorney, the court may become involved in your affairs. Mr. Gummer is a Certified Elder Law Attorney (CELA) by the National Elder Law Foundation.

If you or a loved one becomes disabled or incapacitated and there is no power of attorney in place, the court will have to appoint a guardian to manage your affairs.

HOW TO

find an elder law attorney

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

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

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

HOW TO

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.

GCM spends a few more hours researching and discussing available options with the client and their family, helping them to implement the care plan.

Resolving Communication Breakdowns When it comes to the different challenges associated with caring for a loved one, poor communication is often at the root of the problem. You can take comfort in the fact that there are others who have grappled with the very same issues and who can share their mistakes and solutions. These individuals can be found through support groups, your employer’s human resources department, or even just by asking trusted friends and neighbors. Seeking Objectivity Sometimes an objective third party’s opinion is beneficial when you are faced with a personal family problem. Mediation professionals specialize in resolving conflicts, making compromises and leading family members through the communication process. One unique feature of this process is the non-judgmental mediator, who is skilled in improving communication among the family members. Seeking Support Attending support group meetings will allow you to meet with

like-minded people, share similar scenarios, confide in each other and build healthy camaraderie. Furthermore, important resources can be shared and solutions from experienced members will abound. Seeking Advocates When it comes to a breakdown in communication between residents and communities, ombudsman are available to advocate for the residents’ rights. This national program is a great solution, as the ombudsman will investigate any complaints and determine what appropriate action should be taken. Seeking Assistance Employee Assistance Programs, often known as EAPs, are a service put in place by most mid-sized and large employers. These programs usually have resources available to help both employees and their families through elder care challenges. Consult with your company’s human resources department for more information.

time to call 9-1-1 biological warnings many ignore

E

ach year, about 600,000 Americans—one in four—in the United States die from heart disease, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Of the 715,000 Americans who have a heart attack each year, about 525,000 are first-timers, says the CDC, and those individuals may not know what’s happening. Sadly, many people do not get to the hospital on time, says paramedic Dale Hemstalk. “If someone is having a heart attack, for example, they should get to the hospital without delay upon the initial onset of symptoms,” says Hemstalk, who is also a software developer with Forté Holdings, Inc., a provider of health-care software that works closely with paramedics, emergency medical technicians and firefighters to speed delivery of medical services. “We live in an age in which we should be taking greater advantage of our technology for health purposes - but you have to call for help first,” Hemstalk says. Here, he shares warning signs that it’s time dial 9-1-1.

spreads to the shoulders, neck or arms; chest discomfort with lightheadedness, fainting, sweating, nausea or shortness of breath. For women, symptoms tend to be back or jaw pain; difficulty breathing; nausea or dizziness; unexplainable anxiety or fatigue; mild flu-like symptoms; palpitations, cold sweats or dizziness. Triggers tend to be different between the sexes, too. In women, it’s often stress; in men, it’s physical exertion.

Symptoms for a stroke There are clear, telltale characteristics of a stroke, including sagging on one side of the face, an arm that’s drifting down and garbled speech. But there are also more subtle signs from the onset, such as sudden numbness of one side of the body, including an arm, leg and part of the face; sudden confusion; trouble speaking and understanding; sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes; sudden loss of balance; and sudden headache for no apparent reason. Risk factors include diabetes, tobacco use, hypertension, heart disease, a previous Symptoms for a heart attack stroke, irregular heartbeat, obesity, high Men and women frequently report dif- cholesterol and heavy alcohol use. ferent symptoms.

the heart muscle with oxygen and nutrients becomes completely blocked. Heart failure is a chronic condition where the heart can’t pump properly, which may be due to fluid in the lungs. Warning signs include shortness of breath, fatigue, swollen ankles, chest congestion and an overall limitation on activities. Just one of these symptoms may not be cause for alarm, but more than one certainly is. Risk factors include various heart problems, serious viral infections, drug or alcohol abuse, severe lung disease, and chemotherapy. “At no point should anyone be discouraged from calling 911; the bottom line is, if you feel it’s an emergency and you need to call 911, call 911,” Hemstalk says. “There are many reasons to seek assistance from emergency responders, and they are not limited to those that I’ve mentioned.” Dale Hemstalk is a United States Air Force Veteran and Career Firefighter Paramedic. Hemstalk has been providing emergency care for over 20 years. Joining Forte Holdings’ team was a natural progression combining his love of the Emergency Medical Services industry and new technology, along with his commitment to providing the best possible documentation on each and every call for service.

HOW TO

be a balanced caregiver

By Jody Gastfriend, LICSW

C n

aring for a parent, grandparent, spouse or loved one has its challenges and rewards. It can be gratifying as well as frustrating, with no clear roadmap on how to proceed. More than 65 million people in the United States care for a parent or disabled adult, and of those caregivers, more than a third still have minor children living at home. Middle-aged adults may find themselves sandwiched between limit testing teenagers, pushing for more independence, and aging parents, who want to hold onto the independence they still have. Is there a way for caregivers, whether you are a daughter, son, spouse or partner, to juggle it all without feeling depleted and guilt-ridden? The answer

is yes, but it takes time, patience, forethought and compassion – for yourself as well as everyone else. Sometimes, the best thing a caregiver can do is to take a step back, breathe deeply and evaluate their routine. Consider how caregiving rituals can be handled more effectively, without abandoning career, family and other aspects of life. Here are few things to consider: 1. Have conversations early and often. Unless your loved ones are completely incapacitated, you must include them in discussions about their care and accommodations. Approach decision-making from a place of love and respect. Many caregivers get frustrated by their parent or grandparent’s resistance to help. Continued on page 82

caregiver ... Continued from page 81

But that resistance may be a need to exert some control, especially at a time when things feel out of control. If you can help them understand why you feel they need a home health aide, a certain medical specialist, a safety-related home renovation or even a new domicile, you often get better participation in making the change. Rarely are plans made in just one conversation. It may be a series of conversations, lasting months or even years. Be patient and recognize that your loved one has the right to make decisions, even if you think they are bad ones.

2. Talk about money. Nobody likes to talk about money, but it simply must be done. When it comes to eldercare, finances determine options. Do your parents or grandparents have long-term care insurance? Do they have savings to liquidate or assets they’re willing to sell? (The family home may be non-negotiable, but what about the car your senior relatives no longer drive?) What kind of care and services can they afford? Keep in mind that home care costs around $20/hour and Medicare doesn’t pay for long-term care in a nursing home—which averages over $80,000 a year. If you’ve been operating on the assumption that long-term

decisions can be made “when the time comes,” you may be in for a harsh dose of reality. There’s no point in spinning your wheels, going over choices that just aren’t viable for your family. 3. Don’t try to do it all. In many cases, a nearby family member, perhaps you, will take on caretaking duties, thinking you can or should be able to handle it all. Plus, Mom really trusts and relies on you and wouldn’t feel comfortable with a stranger in the home. Things may go along fine for a while, but as the picture turns more complicated, you may quickly become overwhelmed and ineffective.

Go ahead and step up if you’re the one who lives closest or has the most time or financial wherewithal to deal with an initial crisis. But then, assess the situation and quickly marshal your resources. Call a family meeting—via Skype, if need be—and find out what other family members are willing and able to do. A brother or sister who lives across the country may not be able to make daily visits, but perhaps he or she could pay for or a cleaning service to help with laundry and housekeeping. And what about those teenagers striving for more independence? If they have a driver’s license, they can be tasked with making a daily wellness check, running errands or tending to Grandma’s pets. 4. Manage medications and therapies. Develop a simple system to track medication, prescribed exercises, nutritional supplements and other health related needs. There are websites that allow for information-sharing among family care-

givers, which can be great. But a simple calendar or spreadsheet along with prefilled pill boxes can also work. Make sure the system is user-friendly for all who will rely on it. Leave a spot for notes to indicate when medications must be refilled or supplies replenished. Keep in mind that most paid caregivers, unless they are nurses, are not allowed to administer medication—in other words, hand out pills. But caregivers can remind people to take their medication and this is often all that is needed.

ety can spice up life. Many colleges and schools of social work have volunteer programs for students interested in aging studies. 6. Reassess your routine every two weeks. Or more often if conditions are changing rapidly. See what’s working and what isn’t. Talk to your parents and grandparents, spouse or partner—find out if they’re happy with the care they’re getting, or if they’d prefer more, less or different. Consider whether your loved one is still safe living at home and whether you feel their mental or physical condition warrants a change. And don’t be discouraged by setbacks, along with an occasional crisis or two. If you keep yourself grounded, tend to your own needs, and are open to support, you will be able to withstand the ups and downs of caregiving. And hopefully enjoy the journey as well.

5. Explore community resources. Finding a handicap-accessible transportation service to take your mom to the hairdresser or to visit friends can go a long way toward maintaining her mental and emotional well-being. If Mom can’t leave the house, look into religious organizations, senior centers and local areas on aging that offer home supports or social Jody Gastfriend, LICSW, is the VP of calls.

The Art of Appreciation

D

By Christy Brudin Photography by Jim Greipp / Pau Hana Productions

r. Harold “Hal” and Linda Robinson both have had a lifelong passion for art. New residents of Waverly Heights, a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) in Gladwyne, Pa., the Robinsons are also true masters of appreciation— whether they are analyzing art or enjoying retirement. Born in Philadelphia, Hal attended the University of Pennsylvania for both his undergraduate studies and medical school. He began his residency at Bryn Mawr Hospital, where his career as a cardiologist spanned decades. He retired as the Chief of Cardiology at Bryn Mawr Hospital in 1999. Five years before his retirement, Hal began pursuing his second career as a professional artist. “I dabbled in art most of my life, but I was never trained,” he said. “I started taking night classes to develop a portfolio, so I could apply to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.” Hal was accepted into the Academy and launched an exceptional new Dr. Harold “Hal” and Linda Robinson wanted to move to a retirement community career as a painter. After more than a dozen shows, includ- and give up the burdens of home ownership, so they could continue to focus on other things—like their mutual love of art. ing two at Waverly Heights, Hal has sold well over 60 paintings.

novative Humanities Curriculum that combines literature, history, art and music into one course of study. “I am immensely proud that I was able to leave this legacy to the school,” said Linda. “They are still using my program today, and it is now one of their selling points.” Since retiring, Linda has remained active with The Barnes Foundation. She was one of the first members of the organization’s docent program and still gives tours frequently. She is also now an instructor in the adult education program that was so instrumental in her life. Several years ago, the Robinsons began to consider their retirement living options. “We started to think about eliminating the burdens of home ownership and planning for the future,” Hal recalled. After looking at several communities in the Philadelphia area, the couple realized that one clearly stood out. “No other community that we looked at even compared to Waverly. From the beautiful setting to the amazing staff, this place really is far beyond comparison,” Linda said. While moving from their longtime family home was challenging, the Robinsons have quickly settled into their new life at Waverly. “The process of selling our home of more than 40 years and preparing to move was one of the worst experiences of my life. It was really an ordeal,” said Hal. “However, it was quickly overshadowed by the wonderful experience of moving to Waverly.” 98

Since their move a little over a month ago, the Robinsons have received a warm welcome from Waverly’s staff members and residents alike. The couple has been invited to countless parties and already made several new friends. They have also reunited with some residents they met during Hal’s previous art shows at the community. During his June show at Waverly, Hal asked Linda to give a presentation on art appreciation. “It was amazing,” he remembered. “She was in a room doing what she does so unbelievably well, and the room was filled with my paintings.” The Robinsons have dedicated much of their lives to the love and appreciation of art. However, it is their admiration for each other, their gratitude for the community they call home, and the pleasure they take in living life to the fullest every day that really makes them remarkable. “We can’t overemphasis how gratified we are to be here,” concluded Hal. “It’s like living in an arboretum. Every aspect of this community and the people who live and work here have made this phase of our lives beautiful.” Hal and Linda may be Waverly Height’s newest residents, but they are already among its most vocal proponents. Between them, the Robinsons have a considerable amount of experience studying and analyzing. They know a good thing when they see it—whether it is a timeless work of art or a world-class retirement lifestyle—and they are not afraid to share their appreciation.

HOW TO

F

stay surrounded with activity

active adult communities keep residents moving

or those unfamiliar with available living options, the image of the “senior community” may need a serious makeover. Many individuals still think of retirement communities as dreary “facilities” with an institutional feel. This could not be further from the truth today. Active Adult communities, also known as leisure communities, are populated with adults who have come to live there by choice. In fact, individuals often choose to move into an active adult community as soon as they hit the requisite age – usually around 55. The amenity-filled communities are often adjacent to golf courses or other recreational facilities. Not Just Active, but Pro-Active These individuals say they’re making the move because they want to enjoy a hassle-free lifestyle, not because of deteriorating health. Simply put, it is their choice. Most active adult communities are not equipped to provide increased care or health-related services. However, several active adult residences are part of a larger Continuing Care Retirement Community where residents can count on extended care if they develop health problems. This continuum of care allows active adults to make the most of the present while planning for the future.

Gaining Independence Active adult communities are residences full of options, and most of the costs are included in the living fees. They are ideal for retirees, but are not limited to those who have stopped working. Many residents continue to put in hours at work, while others fully explore longlost hobbies or new interests. Homes in these communities are constructed of low-maintenance building materials and feature virtually maintenancefree yards. This way, residents can spend more time filling their schedules with favorite hobbies and group activities, rather than tending to home-related tasks. Tennis courts, swimming pools, hiking trails, biking and jogging paths, and fitness centers are among the many features generally available within the community. Instead of navigating traffic when going to the gym or beauty shop, residents can often walk a few blocks to an on-site facility. There is also something to be said for having an elegant dining room in the community, although cooking in one’s private residence is still an option. What to Look For You can start by requesting an information packet from every active adult community you are considering. Make sure to read it carefully, and keep them all organized in a folder or file cabinet. Once you’ve narrowed down your op-

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

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

boomers are retiring Despite the popular belief that Baby Boomers will continue to work well past the traditional retirement age of 65, those born in 1946 are retiring in droves, according to Transitioning into Retirement: The MetLife Study of Baby Boomers at 65. This study is a follow–up to the 2008 MetLife Mature Market Institute study, Boomer Bookends: Insights into the Oldest and Youngest Boomers (released in 2009), which looked at the same segment of Boomers at age 62. The study reports that 59 percent of the first Boomers to turn 65 are at least partially retired – 45 percent are completely retired and 14 percent are retired, but working part-time. Of those still working, 37 percent say they’ll retire in the next year, and on average, plan to do so by the time they’re 68. Half (51%) of those who are retired say they retired earlier than they had expected. Of those who retired early, fourin-ten say they did so for health reasons. The majority (85%) of respondents consider themselves healthy, and almost all (96%) retirees say they like retirement at least somewhat. Seven-in-ten (70%) like it a lot. Almost two-thirds, or 63 percent of respondents, are already collecting Social Security benefits, and on average began doing so at the age of 63, defying the conventional wisdom that people would

HOW TO

receive care for life

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

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

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

HOW TO

understand entrance fees

knowing the options when paying for ccrcs Most CCRCs require payment of a one-time fee, usually called the entrance fee, before moving to the community. The entrance fee amount often depends on the level of care at the time of entry, type of housing chosen (with larger units requiring a larger fee) and agreement type. The entrance fee allows the CCRC to offer lower monthly fees and provide for the future needs of residents. State regulations can impact the terms of the entrance fee and in some states, refunds are called rebates. Entrance fees are typically structured in one of three ways: Declining scale refunds, also known as amortizing entrance fees, specify a period of time in which the entrance fee will be refundable to the resident on a declining basis. For example, if an entrance fee under this arrangement

declines at the rate of 1 percent each month, after 6 months 94 percent of the entrance fee is refundable. Partially refundable entrance fees guarantee a specific percentage of the refund that will be returned within a certain period of time regardless of the term of residency. For example, 50 percent of the entrance fee may be refundable upon termination of the contract or to the estate upon the resident’s death. Full refunds offer just that, a full refund of the entrance fee. A fixed charge may be deducted before the refund is made, and the agreement generally states how long the refund is valid and under what conditions a refund is due. Entrance fees that offer full refunds are typically more expensive than those without refunds or those that are par-

what questions to ask about fees 1. Are there financial deposits for which I am responsible? If so, what is the refund policy if I decide not to move to the community? 2. What types of service contracts or agreements are available in this community? 3. How much is the current entrance fee? Are there plans to increase the amount of this fee in the future? 4. Is there a structure for refund or rebate of entrance fees? If so, what is the time period in which the refund/rebate can be granted, and when and under what conditions will the refund/rebate be paid? 5. What services are included in the monthly fee? 6. What are the costs for additional services? 7. How does the organization determine

how often and by how much fees will be raised? 8. Over the last few years, what has been the history of monthly fee increases? How frequently have fees been raised and by what percent each time? Why were the fees increased? 9. How will I be notified of changes in the fee structure? 10. If I require more services or move to a different level of care, how will that affect my monthly fee? 11. What happens if I encounter financial difficulty? Excerpt from Consumer Guide to Understanding Financial Performance and Reporting: Enhancing People’s Lives in Continuing Care Retirement Communities. The guide is available free of charge at www.carf.org.

When discussing fees, ask how the organization determines how often and by how much fees will be raised.

Quality First is about raising the consciousness of all the stakeholders–government, consumers, and their families. Quality First applies to the full continuum of aging services including adult day services, home health, community services, senior housing, assisted living residences, continuing care retirement communities and nursing homes. All LeadingAge members can improve performance by using Quality First in areas such as continuous quality improvement, better human resources management and risk management. Most importantly, adopting Lead-

can implement Quality First. Increasing staff awareness and upgrading equipment are some initiatives taking place as a result of Quality First.

lessons from life financial professional offers advice from experience “I am the caretaker for my Dad, a job I truly love. I guess I am just returning the favor. I know some day it might be me in his shoes. I have many kids, and I am setting an example for them. This is the circle of life,” says Bill Cummings, of Cummings Financial Organization. In the musical “The Lion King,” there is a song called the “Circle of Life” (go ahead and sing it). Part of the lyrics state: “It’s the circle of life. And it moves us all. Through despair and hope, through faith and love. Till we find our place, on the path unwinding, in the circle, the circle of life.” “I had a life moment last week with one of my kids that made me think of the circle of life and how it has affected my business,” says Cummings. “One of our grown daughters was

lessons from life ... Continued from page 115

The circle of life has affected Cummings in significant ways. His father has Alzheimer’s and is in an Alzheimer’s unit at Horizon Bay Memory Care in Tampa, Florida. Cummings serves as his caretaker and helps with responsibilities such as bills, shopping, doctor appointments, etc. “I am also responsible for making sure he is living in the right facility and has the proper care,” says Cummings. After experiencing the difficulties of learning “Care-Giving 101” on his own, Cummings has provided four essential caregiving tips, so that you don’t have to learn the hard way: 1. Take care of yourself. Being the care taker to your loved one can be a truly gratifying experience, but in order for this to be the case, it is essential that you remember to take the time to maintain your own health and well-being. Remember, you cannot help others if you do not help yourself.

2. Create a team of elder care specialists. Seniors are often treated for a wide array of medical conditions. Navigating through the various types of physicians best suited for your loved one can seem like a daunting task, but a geriatrician is a medical doctor trained to help you in matters specific to seniors. 3. Do the numbers. Determining cash flow and what can be afforded for their care is essential. Certain Certified Public Accountants offer specialized services, which are available to meet the unique needs of seniors and their families. 4. Hire the right people. As a caregiver, you are essentially a project manager, and you cannot do everything. For this reason, it is important to do your homework when hiring institutions, attorneys, social workers, therapists, etc. Research reviews, contact references and take your time when making your decisions.

Cummings often reflects on how the “circle of life” caught him off-guard. He was not prepared when his father had a stroke four years ago. “I was a busy business owner and dealing with my Dad was not on my schedule,” he says. “Where was I to turn for advice, the Internet? I had to drive to multiple places, see multiple doctors, interview caretakers, etc. Boy, did I make a lot of mistakes. This affected me so much that I made a pact that I did not want any of my friends or clients to go through this experience.” Adding Elder Care to his practice because of this “pact,” Cummings has developed strategic relationships with caregivers, elder law attorneys, home downsizers, therapists, social workers, physicians and bill payers. “I help families assess healthcare costs, living costs, and how to pay for it while maximizing what goes to their loved ones. It is truly gratifying to help someone through this process.” Bill Cummings is President and Owner of Cummings Financial Organization.

HOW TO

live independently

communities offer security with no home maintenance

T

he more years you put behind you, the more worries you may have about continuing to maintain your home. When you do not need medical supervision, but feel like washing your hands of endless home-related tasks, independent living is an option that can help. What is Independent Living? Independent living communities are residential communities for active older adults who want an enjoyable lifestyle free of the worries and trouble of home maintenance. They are similar to any apartment, condominium or single-family development, except that they provide special services, including security — an important consideration for many residents. Most independent living communities are fully secured, with staff members greeting and screening all visitors around the clock. Residents can leave home for extended periods of time knowing that their living quarters will be safe. As many individuals at this stage in their lives are looking to pursue new hobbies and interests with their free time, the activities and amenities available at a community are a major factor for potential residents. Several independent living communities provide a full range of activities such as shopping trips, outings to

understand rental options

what is available and how to qualify

A

ccording 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 24hour 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.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funds several rental assistance programs for seniors who qualify.

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.

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.

and who have incomes above the VA national threshold. Individuals in lower priority groups often have to pay copays for care and services. Once a Veteran’s eligibility is verified, they will be assigned a priority group. If an individual is eligible for more than one priority group, the VA will place them in the highest group for which they are eligible. Long-Term Care Benefits In addition to preventative, health maintenance and emergency care, VA benefits may also provide for long-term care in some instances. Long-term care benefits include assistance that is provided for an extended period of time to help Veterans with everyday tasks and/ or provide support for managing an ongoing illness. Long-term care, as defined by the VA, may be provided in a person’s home, a community site, residential setting, or nursing home. Eligibility for services covered by the VA are determined based on a Veteran’s need for ongoing treatment, service availability in their area, financial eligibility, priority group status and insurance coverage. Longterm care services may also be covered though Medicare, Medicaid, insurance or private funds. In some instances, Veterans may be able to use the Aid and Attendance Allowance to cover needed long-term care. The Aid and Attendance Allowance is an additional monthly monetary benefit

provided by the VA for certain Veterans who receive a pension. To be eligible, Veterans must: • Require the help of another person for everyday personal care needs (such as bathing, dressing, or toileting); or • Be bedridden; or • Live in a nursing home and be physically or mentally incapacitated; or • Have poor eyesight (5/200 corrected visual acuity or less in both eyes). The VA also offers a Housebound Allowance to certain eligible Veterans who are restricted to their residence because of a permanent disability. This additional monthly monetary benefit can be used to help pay for needed care services

provided in the Veteran’s home. To apply for either the Aid and Attendance or Housebound benefits, Veterans must send a written statement, including a report from their doctor documenting the need for services, to their Veterans Benefits Administration regional office. Additional information is available at www.va.gov/healthbenefits and www. myhealth.va.gov or by calling the VA toll-free at 1-877-222-VETS (8387).

HOW TO

choose assisted living/personal care

an option that provides supportive services Assisted Living/Personal Care communities offer housing and a variety of supportive services delivered by qualified staff members. As opposed to independent living communities, health care services are available at these facilities. In January 2011, the state of Pennsylvania instituted changes in legislation regarding the use of the term “assisted living.” The state’s new term “personal care home” is defined as follows: “A premise in which food, shelter and personal assistance or supervision are provided for a period exceeding 24 hours, for four or more adults who are not relatives of the operator, who do not require the services in or of a licensed long-term care facility, but who do require assistance or supervision in activities of daily

HOW TO

pay for assisted living/personal care

W

know your options when paying for care

hen considering potential assisted living communities, it is important to research your payment options. Although Medicare does not cover the costs of assisted living, there are a variety of payment sources available. The National Center for Assisted Living reports that “certain services are paid under Supplementary Security Income and Social Services Block Grant programs.” Individuals who meet income qualifications may also be eligible for assistance through their state Medicaid program. Some communities also offer internal financial assistance programs. State and local governments may offer subsidies for rent to those who are income-eligible. Contact the local Area Agency on Aging for more information on subsidies and other payment assistance programs.

10 Tips for Choosing an Assisted Living/Personal Care Facility 1. M ake an accurate and honest assessment of your physical, financial, mental and lifestyle needs. 2. Visit as many facilities as you can to get a sense of the choices in your area. 3. Narrow down your selection to the top two or three choices and return to those facilities and ask lots of questions.

4. Ask to review a copy of the Resident Agreement (facility contract). 5. Ask to review the licensing or certification inspection report. 6. Call the Long Term Care Ombudsman program and ask if there are complaints about the facilities you are interested in. Contact the ElderCare Locator at 1-800-677-1116 or www.eldercare.gov to find your local ombudsman who serves as an advocate for assisted living/personal care and nursing home residents. 7. Make an unannounced visit to the facilities you are interested in. Talk with the residents and their family members about the facility. 8. Ask what conditions or circumstances may result in the need to relocate or move to another facility. 9. Ask what the baseline fee is and what services are included in that fee. Ask what additional charges apply for services/products.

10. Choose the facility that comes closest to your needs. From The Consumer Consortium on Assisted Living (CCAL), a national consumer education and advocacy organization. Visit www.ccal.org for more information.

Alzheimer’s

HOW TO

choose alzheimer’s care

a special care residence may be the right option

C

ertification 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

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

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.

find hospice care A patient and family may turn to hospice care when the goals of patient care have switched from curing to comforting. Hospice involves a special system of supportive services, including pain and symptom management, social services, and emotional and spiritual support. Any individual of any age with a diagnosis of a terminal disease may turn to hospice. What is Hospice Care? Hospice is unique in that care and support are provided to the entire family, not just the patient. A team of skilled professionals and volunteers work to serve the special needs of everyone involved. Choice is at the center of the hospice approach — a person faced with a life-limiting illness is encouraged to remain in control of his or her life. As care is usually provided in one’s home, many hospice patients live out their lives in the comfort of familiar daily rou-

understanding home infusion therapy

W

hen Mr. Phillips was unexpectedly admitted to an area hospital and diagnosed with a serious infection, he was immediately started on antibiotics that were administered directly into the blood stream through a catheter in his arm. As he started feeling better, the hospital case manager spoke to him about finishing his therapy at home and choosing a pharmacy to provide the “infusion” services. The thought of going home with a catheter in his arm was overwhelming and Mr. Phillips wasn’t sure how to choose an infusion company he could trust. Mr. Phillips’ story happens each day in area hospitals. Patients find themselves needing intravenous antibiotics or other infusions that can be safely administered at home and minimize disruptions of the patient’s lifestyle and work activities. While many individuals prefer to receive treatment at home, going home on infusion medications can cause anxiety due to a lack of experience. Fortunately, there are devices available for administration of home intravenous medications that are safe and very easy to use. Infusion therapy involves the administration of medication directly into a vein. It is prescribed when a patient’s condition is severe enough that it cannot be treated effectively with oral medications. Infusion of these medications can be short or long term depending on the diagnosis and severity of the infection. There are also other reasons that you might need a home infusion company to provide medication. The most common types of therapy that need a home infusion company are anti- infectives, Parenteral Nutrition (TPN), Enteral Nutrition, Chemotherapy, Pain Management and Catheter care. The most frequently used infusion therapy is IV antibiotics; prescribed primarily for such diagnoses as cellulitis, sepsis, osteomyelitis, urinary tract infections, pneumonia and sinusitis. Home infusion therapy is appropriate for patients or caregivers that can learn to be 158

independent with the administration of the medication. The patient or caregiver will be taught to safely administer the medication at home and have weekly visits by the infusion nurse. Some people return to work with their physician’s approval, and resume all of their activities. Fortunately Mr. Phillips’ case manager has since arranged for a clinical liaison from Infuscience to speak to him about his therapy before leaving the hospital. The infusion company will coordinate with the hospital and physician to safely provide his medications at home. They will also briefly show the patient how to administer the medication, answering any questions. After verifying his insurance benefits, discussing coverage, and coordinating the delivery of medication to the home, an experienced infusion nurse will meet him at home and teach him medication administration and catheter care. The nurse will stay with Mr. Phillips until he is comfortable and independent with his infusions. When choosing a home infusion company, patients can ask an infectious disease physician or specialist for recommendations. They should inquire about a company’s reputation for customer service, clinical excellence and professionalism, while asking if

It is also important the company provide the following services: • Verification of insurance coverage and communication of out-of-pocket expenses. • Filing of all insurance claims for infusion services. • Same day delivery of medications and supplies via private courier. • Pharmacist and nurse availability 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. • Coordination of nursing and all home health needs, with provision of further instruction and care during treatment. • Regular communication with the physician ensuring appropriate care and consultation with regards to lab monitoring and clinical outcomes. • Meeting quality standards and accreditation requirements of a nationally-recognized organization. • Compounding medications in a state of the art, USP 797 compliant pharmacy. • The easiest method of delivery available for the infusion without additional charges.

Hospice

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

HOW TO

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 lifechanging 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 160

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. What to Look For in Nursing Care Before choosing a home, contact the Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program of your Area Agency on Aging. Ombudsman programs promote the highest quality of life and care for residents of nursing facilities and can help families and staff with inquiries and complaints. Visit your prospects at different times of day. Talk with residents. Be persistent about getting your questions answered. Entering & Adjusting to Nursing Care Although some people enter a nursing home temporarily for a short-term stay, it is still a sad day for most. Reassurance from family and friends that love and contact will be maintained can ease the transition. The following steps may help lessen the trauma of this change: n Talk about the admission in advance and describe the home in detail. n Visit the home with the prospective resident beforehand and get to know the administration. n Involve the prospective resident as much as possible in the decision-making process. n Decide together what items to bring to the nursing home. n Be available the entire day of admission to help settle the resident and provide 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?

HOW TO

solve long-term care issues

an ombudsman can help The word “Ombudsman” is a Swedish term for a person who acts as a third party in resolving problems. A Long-Term Care Ombudsman can assist consumers who are choosing long-term care providers (nursing facilities, assisted living facilities, retirement communities, adult day care programs and home care agencies) by offering information on an individual provider’s services, history of complaints and their licensure status. Ombudsmen are advocates who work to improve the quality of life for seniors and other individuals receiving long-term care services. In addition to providing the information necessary to make an informed decision about a long-term care provider, an Ombudsman can also investigate and help resolve complaints against specific longterm care providers.Utilizing volunteers, an Ombudsman can arrange for weekly visits to a long-term care facility. The overall goal of an Ombudsman is to educate the community at large about long-term care issues while simultaneously helping to train the staff of long-term care providers. An Ombudsman can inform consumers of their rights and long-term care providers of their responsibilities.

What Can an Ombudsman Do? An Ombudsman can formally address complaints and concerns. The Ombudsman strives to empower the resident first and then intervene as needed. They can assist through counseling, formal complaint investigation and negotiation. The counseling received from an Ombudsman is strictly confidential and can help individuals become an advocate for themselves or a loved one. An Ombudsman will listen to complaints and then offer information and referrals via the telephone, email or at an in-person visit to a long-term care facility.

If the concern requires a formal investigation, the Ombudsman will act as an advocate on behalf of the long-term care recipient during this investigation. He/ she will gather facts and relevant information to determine whether the complaint is valid. Then the Ombudsman will work with the long-term care recipient or their representative and the provider to determine the appropriate course to resolve the problem. This article was adapted from www.fairfaxcounty.gov/ltcombudsman, which explains the Northern Virginia LongTerm Care Ombudsman Program in detail.

Ombudsmen are advocates who work to improve the quality of life for seniors and other individuals receiving long-term care services.

• The bathroom is where 80 percent of home accidents occur. Avoid falls by adding non-slip strips to the tub/shower floor and non-skid mats to the bathroom floor, along with safety rails in the tub/ shower and next to the toilet. • In the kitchen, even the most savvy cook has had a loose sleeve catch on an open flame. Make sure your mom wears tight fitting sleeves when cooking, and remove towels and curtains that may be hanging nearby. • Elsewhere in the home, one of my biggest pet peeves is throw rugs – they’re an accident waiting to happen! Remove them along with any other clutter that can cause a fall.

M

y 89-year-old father had his foot caught between the gas and brake pedal of his car

Dear Linda: Watching our parents drive when we know they are not safe on the road is a very difficult position to be in. My most difficult conversation with my father was when we had “That Conversation.” My book Elder Care Made Easier touches on the subject. First and foremost, make sure that your father is physically, mentally and emotionally fit: hearing, eyes, balance, judgment, reactions and responses. Are any of his medications contra indicated (not mixing well with other medications)? Does he have one for the road thinking that just one drink (of alcohol) won’t do any harm? With his cooperation, have him checked out by his primary doctor and any other doctors that have an influence on him, or may be giving him medications that may contribute to his driving erratically or impair his judgment. I had my father go to a driving class, to reduce his insurance as well as reinforce the rules of the road. If it comes to truly having to take away the keys, after every thing possible has been done, be aware and sensitive to how that will impact on his independence, manhood and social life. Taking away the keys is a profound step, but if you keep in mind all of his needs and address them, the transition can be harmonious.

and he ran into the pillar at the front of the grocery store. Luckily, he did not hurt or kill anyone, and while he hit his head on the windshield of his Address car (hePhone was not wearing a seatbelt), a CAT scan showed he was fine. He did total his car and was found liable by the insurance company. My sisters and I had expressed our concerns about his driving given he had fallen a couple of months before and ended up with micro fractures of his leg just below his knee. He feels that as long as he can walk, he can drive. What he doesn’t want to admit is that he walks with assistance, either a cane or a walker, and that his balance is not that good. —Linda

y 85-year-old mom will not discuss her future care needs. She still drives and rarely asks for help. I will be her only future caregiver. —Bev Dear Bev: You are fortunate to have a parent who is still independent at the age of 85. I truly understand your concern and at the same time, I understand your mother’s need to demonstrate her obvious abilities to run her own life. The best time to have the conversation regarding her future is now, while she is capable both physically and mentally of giving you details regarding what she would want in the case of an unforeseen event or accident. You always want to carry out your mother’s wishes, but to do that you have to first know what they are, and you need to get them in writing. The conversation needs to start with how concerned you are about her. Let her know how your constant worrying about her is affecting your work, family relationships and health. Next, determine if she has all the necessary legal and financial papers in order. It is important that these papers are up to date. This might be a difficult conversation for both of you, but the time to have it is now.

HOW TO

remain at home

receive assistance while enjoying the comforts of home Home care can include a wide variety of healthcare and supportive services—from professional nursing and home health aide services to physical, occupational, respiratory and speech therapies. An advancing industry, home healthcare is essentially skilled nursing care and certain other forms of healthcare that you get in your home for the treatment of an illness or injury. It is an important option to consider regardless of one’s age or health conditions. Options in Home Care An incredibly diverse field, home care includes companion care, home healthcare or skilled nursing. COMPANION CARE is provided by caregivers or companions, who serve as surrogate family members, performing many of the tasks that family members would

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

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

HOW TO

pay for home care

understanding costs can help with decision making As remaining at home is becoming an increasingly popular option for many, it is important to understand the costs of care and your payment options while researching different home healthcare companies. Costs for companion care are covered primarily by private payments and range from $15-$25 per hour. Home healthcare must also be paid for with private funds, unless it is prescribed by a physician and provided by a Medicarecertified agency. Prices for home health care also range from $15-$25 per hour. Long-term care insurance policies may cover companion care and home health care. If you qualify for Medicaid, a government program for low-income individuals, it may subsidize some of your home care needs. Since laws vary from state to state, you will need to contact your local Area Agency on Aging for more information concerning government benefits. Skilled nursing care will be paid for by Medicare as long as it is determined to be “intermittent skilled care,” which includes occupational, respiratory, speech and physical therapy. To be covered,

Individuals who meet income requirements may be eligible to receive skilled nursing services through Medicaid.

care must be ordered by a doctor. Individuals who meet income requirements may be eligible to receive skilled nursing services through Medicaid. Major medical health insurance will also cover a limited number of skilled home visits. Costs for these services vary greatly

depending upon coverage by Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance. Contact your local Office on Aging or State Department of Health to find out if there are funds from social services block grants available to cover home care costs.

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

T

he year 2006 took a toll on Kim Moyer’s family. As her parents were approaching their 60th wedding anniversary that June, her father passed away. Just a few months later, her mother Dorothy suffered a massive stroke. As a result, Kim, the youngest of six, took the responsibility of seeing that her mom received the appropriate care. Dorothy spent two weeks in the hospital before entering a rehabilitation facility. In addition to the speech and cognitive effects from her stroke, she also suffered from the beginning stages of Parkinson’s disease and had knee problems. It was her wish, however, to remain at home and although Kim and her oldest sister were living with Dorothy, they knew they would need additional assistance. “My mother said she never wanted to go to a nursing home,” said Kim. “As long as we could do it physically and financially we were

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 of seniors. Understanding the Risks On both a national and a local level, the risk of falls is one of the largest, preventable medical challenges that seniors face. The statistics on falls and the injuries they cause are alarming. For instance: • In 2008, more than 19,700 older adults died from unintentional fall injuries, according to the CDC. • The death rates from falls among older men and women have risen sharply over the past decade (CDC). • In 2000, direct medical costs of falls totaled a little over $19 billion—$179 million for fatal falls and $19 billion for nonfatal fall injuries. This equals $28.2 billion in 2010 dollars (CDC). Injuries from a fall can range from minor to severe, but the risk of serious injury is much greater among the senior adult population. For many seniors, falls are the initial injury in what becomes a long hospitaliza-

tion and recovery process. For others, falls may result in a loss of independence, or in the most severe cases, a loss of life. Avoiding Falls One of the simplest ways that older adults can reduce their risk of falling is by exercising. Exercising helps improve balance and maintain leg strength. Leg muscles naturally weaken with age; weightbearing exercises that focus on improving leg strength can help mitigate the risk of falling. 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 peri-

odically 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 updated as needed to maintain the best possible vision. Finally, one of the most important things older adults can do to minimize their risk of falling is to evaluate the safety of their home environment. Whether 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 improve-

ment 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. Resources The CDC is partnering with several other government agencies to promote a national action plan to prevent falls, which includes research, state grant funding, evaluation projects and information projects. Education efforts have included the development of brochures, posters and a pocket guide for physicians. Information adapted from the Centers for Disease Control. More information is available at www.cdc.gov/HomeandRecreationalSafety/Falls/adultfalls.html.

For many seniors, falls are the initial injury in what becomes a long hospitalization and recovery process.

HOW TO

make aging in place possible

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

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

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 devel-

oped 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 in order to address the growing number of consumers requiring these modifications.

Making A SAFER HOME for Seniors NON-SKID RUGS

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

Used with permission from The Home Safety Council

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

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

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

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

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

Our nurse-supervised caregivers are not only there to assist with daily needs, but also to serve as an important advocate for our clients’ wellbeing.

A d u lt Day C a r e

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 for those who are socially isolated or need care and assistance. Caregivers can feel confident that their loved one is safe and well cared for while they are at work or performing other necessary tasks. Centers offer a variety of programs and amenities, including exercise programs and a diverse schedule of engaging activities. Assistance with the activities of daily living, including eating, walking, toileting and medication management may also be available. Additionally, many centers offer physical, speech and occupational therapies to their participants. All licensed centers provide nutritious meals and snacks on a daily basis. Choosing a Provider Information on local Adult Day Centers may be available through senior centers, family physicians or the local Area Agency on Aging. After locating nearby providers, call them to request flyers, brochures, calendars and application information.

While reviewing this information, pay careful attention to how many years the provider has been in business and their licensures and certifications. Be sure to understand the staff credentials, staff to participant ratio, and the medical conditions the facility and its staff are equipped to handle. Inquire about the availability of transportation to and from the program if it is necessary. The types of activities offered and the menu variety should be considered as well. Specific costs and any financial assistance that is available should be clearly outlined in the information packet. Reviewing printed materials and asking questions over the phone can help narrow the choices, but the final decision of which Adult Day Center to use must be made in person. During the visit, carefully observe the general atmosphere of the building and the program. The layout of the building and the rooms should ensure easy accessibility for persons in wheelchairs or using walkers. The entire facility should be clean and pleasant. Furniture should be sturdy and comfortable, with choices available for lounging and participating in activities. Beyond the general setup of the facility, focus on the interaction between the staff members and the participants. Do

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