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 partially refundable or refundable on a declining basis.

Utilize your resources and ask the right questions 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

A Place to Belong By Christy Brudin
P
at retired her snow shovel. Susan and Chuck left behind their home in California to be closer to family. Nancy quit worrying about home maintenance. Peggy and Jim gave up the snowbird lifestyle and returned to the Eastern Shore. They all found a place to belong at Londonderry on the Tred Avon in Easton, Maryland. Londonderry is a cooperative independent living community for ages 62 and over, offering residents all the amenities of a retirement community with the added benefit of controlling their financial investment. The community recently celebrated its 25th anniversary and remains the only waterfront independent living cooperative for residents 62 and older on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. It is also one of only ninety-eight independent living cooperative retirement communities in the entire country. At Londonderry, the residents are members of a corporation that owns all the real property, including all residences and common areas. The co-op owners control every aspect of Londonderry’s management and
operations. Ultimately, residents enjoy all the benefits of homeownership without the burdens of maintenance or upkeep. A Place to Lead “One of my greatest joys is to watch the snow plow go right by my door and to know I don’t have to touch any snow,” said Pat Lewers. Four years ago, Pat and her husband, Ted, moved to Londonderry in large part so they could relax—and retire their snow shovels. Prior to moving, the couple had lived in the same home for 40 years. Dr. Lewers had also practiced medicine in the area for more than 30 years, so the couple was very connected to the larger community. Beyond wanting to relax, the Lewers also wanted to find a place where everything was taken care of for them. Following Ted’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis, Londonderry allowed for Pat to worry less and focus on spending time with her husband. Ted and Pat lived for two years at Londonderry together before Dr. Lewers moved to a longterm assisted living to receive comprehensive care.

Cover Story
As the recently elected President of the Board of Londonderry, Pat Lewers is excited to give back to her beloved community.
Through all these changes, Pat has had the support of her fellow residents and the team at Londonderry. “This is not a community. It’s not even a village. It’s a home,” Pat said. “I truly love it here. I love every minute. It feels like one big family.” Pat was recently elected President of the Board of Londonderry and is really looking forward to the opportunity to give back. “This community is really operated by the residents,” she explained. “I feel very honored that they elected me and gave me this responsibility, and I hope I can live up to it.” Pat may have put down her snow shovel, but she is still very active—and very much a leader. A Place With Family When their son married and moved to Easton, Susan and Chuck Andrews became frequent visitors to the Eastern Shore. They loved the area, but California remained their home. “We saw Londonderry several years ago, and we thought it looked really nice, and we loved that it was on the water,” Susan recalled. “We started thinking that we really needed to find a place where we could be taken care of and just enjoy life.” During their next visit, the Andrews stopped and added their names to Londonderry’s waiting list. When they came back to tour their first cottage, things happened quickly. “Chuck said, ‘We’ll take it.’ And that was that,” Susan explained. “It was a major move for us—moving across country—but we wanted to be closer to family, and we couldn’t be happier with the decision.” Both former educators who were active participants in their long-time community in California, Susan and Chuck are still impressed by how quickly they felt at home at Londonderry. “We knew nobody coming in here, and we were immediately embraced,” Susan noted. retirementlivingsourcebook.com | 800-394-9990
After moving thousands of miles to be closer to their family on the Eastern Shore, Chuck and Susan Andrews were thrilled to find a whole new family in their new community.
“This is not a community. It’s not even a village. It’s a home. I truly love it here. I love every minute. It feels like one big family.” — Pat Lewers, President of the Board of Londonderry Although they never really considered the cooperative aspect of the community before moving, Susan is now grateful for the residents’ level of involvement. “I think most of the people here were involved in leadership roles in their past,” she said. “Once they get here, they can continue to be involved, and to have a say in everything about the community.” For Chuck, being involved means pursuing his passion for making wine and beer and sharing the fruits of his labors with his friends and neighbors. “Once a month, all of us on the wine committee dress up and serve the wine we made to everyone,” he said. “We also make beer for those who prefer beer. We really have a great time.” Susan and Chuck moved thousands of miles to be closer to their family, and they found a whole new family at Londonderry. A Place to Rebuild Nancy Burns and her husband, Bernie, had called the Eastern Shore home for more than 30 years prior to moving to Londonderry. They owned a place on the water and frequently hosted their four children and twelve grandchildren. “The children all called it the Burns’ Camp,” Nancy said. “It was wonderful, but it was big, and it was just getting to be too much for us to take care of. We realized that it

James and Peggy Sloan were ready to leave Florida and return to the Mid-Atlantic, and they found the perfect cottage--and lifestyle--at Londonderry.
Nancy Burns had only been living at Londonderry for six weeks when she lost her husband. She quickly discovered the value of living in a close-knit, supportive community.
wasn’t fun for us anymore.” When the Burns saw Londonderry, they discovered an answer to their home maintenance problems. They could still enjoy the beautiful shoreline and give up the burdens of seemingly endless home repairs. “We immediately liked the atmosphere here,” Nancy said of the couple’s first visit to Londonderry. “Everybody was friendly. We saw so many smiling faces, and people were always stopping to talk to us.” When tragedy struck just six weeks into her residency, Nancy learned the true value of the caring atmosphere at Londonderry. “We had only been here for six weeks when my husband passed away,” she said. “That changed my whole view of Londonderry. It is not just friendly; it is so much more. The support here has been wonderful. From the very first day, people came and invited me to dinner and activities and made sure I wasn’t alone.” At Londonderry, Nancy has found a place to rebuild her life as a widow. “I can’t tell you how grateful I am to be here. I have so many great friends and everyone is so supportive,” she said. “At least half of the people here have already lost a spouse, so they really know what it is like. I do feel like I am part of a big family.”
Peggy. “We also love owning our home and knowing that we have equity in it.” A retired nurse who spent many years working in geriatrics, Peggy is thrilled to have found a retirement community that is the perfect fit. “I was uncertain if I wanted to move to a community or not, but I’m having a ball,” she said. Peggy’s involvement in the community started shortly after the Sloans moved in when she joined the community’s musical group, the Jammers. “I mentioned to our CEO that I played the piano, and she brought a Jammers t-shirt out of her office and asked me to join the group,” Peggy recalled. “After that, I decided to participate in the talent show at the last minute, and I did a little Minnie Pearl routine. It was fun, and everybody called me Minnie for a long time after that.” As a member of the Activities Committee, Peggy appreciates how much influence the residents have on how the community is operated. “There are so many ways for people to get involved. It is nothing like what people think of as an old folks’ home. This community is filled with vibrant people doing exciting things,” she said. Jim added, “I always say that we live just east of Paradise, just a little east.” A former National Security Agency employee, Jim met Peggy when he went to the doctor’s office where she worked. After more than a decade, he was also ready to leave Florida behind and return to the Mid-Atlantic. At Londonderry, he has found an active community of like-minded peers. He participates in the beer and wine making club and enjoys an array of other activities.
A Place to Own A native of the Eastern Shore, Peggy Sloan spent most of her life in the area before moving to Florida with her second husband, Jim Sloan. After twelve years in Florida, Peggy and Jim decided it was time to head north again. “I just had enough of Florida,” recalled Peggy. “I thought it was time to get back to family, back to home.” The Sloans toured Londonderry and thought it would be a good option. When a cottage became available while they were still in Florida, they sent Peggy’s daughter to tour the property. They immediately knew it was the right place for them. “We are so glad to be here. To be close to family and to be a part of this close-knit community is just perfect,” said retirementlivingsourcebook.com | 800-394-9990
The Place They Belong All these residents have one thing in common. They were looking for the right place to retire. They needed a place to lead, to connect, to grow and to own. At Londonderry, they all found a place to belong—and that place belongs to them.

Resources Moving/Downsizing
Moving and Downsizing Professional help can make moving easy Moving can be a daunting task—no matter what your age—but it can be even more overwhelming for older adults who may be leaving a home they have lived in for decades. Luckily, the enormous growth in the senior population has led to the development of a wide variety of professional moving and real estate services designed specifically to help older adults and their families. Senior Move Managers®, Senior Real Estate Specialists®, and Certified Senior Housing Professionals are just a few of the professionals who are specially trained to help seniors with all the challenges of moving and downsizing. Senior Move Managers assist older adults and their families with the

emotional and physical aspects of relocation. They can also help families who wish to declutter or reorganize a home to better age in place. These professionals provide a multi-faceted approach to the move process, from space planning in the beginning to post-move support and advocacy. By addressing all aspects of the moving process, Senior Move Managers minimize the chaos and stress of moving. From initial planning to downsizing to the physical aspects of moving, Senior Move Managers create a comprehensive plan that includes selling or disposing of unwanted items and setting up the new residence. Many Senior Move Managers are also movers. Others work closely with a reputable local moving company to

complete that aspect of the job. Senior Real Estate Specialists are Realtors who are specially trained to manage the sale of a home for consumers over the age of 50. They bring targeted knowledge, senior experience and marketing savvy to each sale. These specialists have extensive knowledge about everything from reverse mortgages and the importance of universal design to the uses of pensions, 401k accounts and IRAs in real estate transactions. Finally, Certified Senior Housing Professionals (CSHPs) are real estate professionals who have completed extensive coursework on how best to assist older adults and their families in the home buying or selling process.

Moving and Downsizing Continued from 18 moves can be more complicated and require greater physical and emotional energy than traditional moves. They are trained to help older adults navigate the complexities of moving by addressing their fears, concerns, needs and goals. The first step in every move process should be to evaluate the current living situation and needs. Then consumers can contact the many local professionals to inquire about services and costs. Most professionals offer a diverse menu of services, ranging from full service moves to help with particular aspects of moving, buying or selling. Use the checklist on the following page to interview professionals and carefully document their answers. Using this information, it will be simple to choose the right professional for the job. While the moving process may never be fun, there is no longer any reason for it to be difficult. Older adults and their loved ones can now let specially trained professionals
handle all the details of selling, buying and moving—from cleaning out the cluttered basement to finding the perfect new place for every piece of treasured furniture. With profession-

Elder Law
What is elder or special needs law? Legal issues that affect people as they age and people with special needs are growing in number. Our laws and regulations are becoming more complex, and each state has different laws. Actions taken with regard to a single matter may have unintended legal outcomes. It is important for attorneys working with seniors, people with special needs, and their families to have a broad understanding of the laws that may have an impact on a given situation to avoid future problems. Elder and Special Needs Law encompasses many different fields of law. Some of these include: • Preservation/transfer of assets seeking to avoid spousal impoverishment when one spouse enters a nursing home • Medicaid
• Medicare claims and appeals • Social Security and disability claims and appeals • Supplemental and long-term health insurance issues • Tax planning • Disability planning, including use of durable powers of attorney, living trusts, “living willsâ€? for financial management and health care decisions, and other means of delegating management and decision-making to another in case of incompetency or incapacity • Access to health care in a managed care environment • Conservatorships and guardianships • Estate planning, including planning for the management of one’s estate during life and its disposition on death through the use of trusts, wills
and other planning documents • Probate and administration of estates • Administration and management of trusts • Long-term care placements in nursing homes and life-care communities • Nursing home issues, including questions of patients’ rights and nursing home quality • Elder abuse and fraud recovery cases • Housing issues, including discrimination and home equity conversions • Age discrimination in employment • Retirement, including public and private retirement benefits, survivor benefits and pension benefits • Health law • Mental health law Source: www. naela.org

Use our step-by-step guide Step 1 – Know Your Needs o Organize and outline all the information pertinent to your situation. o If you are calling on behalf of a loved one, make sure that you have as many specific details as possible. Step 2 – Call Attorneys o Use our list on the following pages to call some attorneys. o It is not unusual to speak only to an assistant during an initial call. Here are some questions to ask this person: o How long has the attorney been in practice? o Does his or her practice emphasize a particular area of law? o How long has he or she been in this field? o What percentage of his or her practice is devoted to Elder or Special Needs Law? o Is there a fee for the first consultation, and if so how much is it? o Given the nature of your problem, what information should you bring with you to the initial consultation?
Other Services
Step 3 – Initial Consultation o When you have found a prospective attorney, make an appointment to see him or her. After you have explained your situation, ask: o What will it take to resolve it? o Are there any alternate courses of action? o What are the advantages and disadvantages of each possibility? o How many attorneys are in the office? o Who will handle the case? o Has that attorney handled matters of this kind in the past?
24
o If a trial may be involved, does the attorney do trial work? If not, who does the trial work? If so, how many trials has he or she handled? o Is that attorney a member of the local bar association, a health advocacy committee, or trust and estates committee? o What is the estimate of the cost to resolve your problem and how long will it take? Step 4 – Discussing Fees o There are many different ways of charging fees and each attorney will choose to work differently. Be aware of how your attorney charges. Ask: o Do you bill weekly, monthly, or upon completion of work? o Do you charge by the hour? Are there different hourly rates for work performed by attorneys, paralegals and secretaries? o Is there a flat fee for this service? o Will there be any out-of-pocket expenses (charges for copies, postage, messenger fees, court fees, deposition fees and other such costs)? o Do you require a retainer? Step 5 – Make It A Good Experience o Once you decide to hire an attorney, ask that your arrangement be put in writing. A positive and open relationship between an attorney and a client benefits everyone. The key is communication. Source: National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys

Understanding Elder Law Find an attorney to meet your legal needs An elder law attorney is an individual who specializes in areas of the law that are particularly relevant to senior citizens and their family members. These attorneys generally focus their practices in a few of the following areas: estate planning, long-term care planning, social security, public and private pensions, Medicare, Medicaid, Medigap insurance, long-term care insurance, age discrimination, durable powers of attorney, living wills, conservatorship and guardianship, or abuse. Elder law attorneys can offer an especially sensitive ear concerning the sometimes difficult decisions involved in one’s later years. While dispensing legal advice, they are also able to refer clients to other professional and/or non-legal resources that are available to help meet their needs. Because of the expense of legal services, you want to be absolutely cer-
26
tain that your situation necessitates the assistance of a legal professional before hiring an attorney. Before consulting an attorney, you should consider the following questions: Is this a complex legal issue? Is it likely that you will have to go to court? Are there non-legal resources available to help you? Can you resolve this difficulty on your own or with the help of a family member? To pick the right attorney and save yourself time and money, you must
know your needs. If you aren’t familiar with your own situation, it can be difficult to explain it to someone else. Know your own financial limitations and the financial benefits of engaging the services of a specific attorney. In other words, only buy what you need and what you can afford. If you only want a will that names your spouse as your sole beneficiary and there are no other needs, you probably don’t need an expensive package. Be a smart consumer.

life plan communities HOUSING
Life Plan Communities Offering diverse lifestyle options Life Plan Communities are properties offering a combination of living options for older adults. These communities offer an active lifestyle for residents, as well as a wide array of amenities and services. Life Plan Communities were formerly known as Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs). Following a two-year research and review process, a task force led by LeadingAge and Mather LifeWays, identified a new name for CCRCs that would resonate with the boomer target audience. The new name better reflects the communities and their residents—individuals who are active, engaged and focused on the future. Living options available at Life Plan
Communities may include independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing services. These different levels of care are all offered on a single campus. Residents have the option to have all their current or future healthcare needs met without ever leaving campus. Life Plan Communities afford residents endless opportunities to remain active and involved. These communities generally appeal to young, healthy older adults. Amenities vary widely but often include swimming pools, fitness centers, gardening areas, and golf courses or putting greens. Additionally, residents have access to hundreds of clubs and activities—from art classes to yoga classes and from drama clubs
to walking groups. Residents are also very involved in the operation and management of Life Plan Communities through resident boards or councils. Finally, Life Plan Communities are generally integrated into the larger community. With active residents, these communities can focus on giving back and acting as a socially responsible neighbor. Life Plan Communities give older adults the freedom and security to live active, healthy lives. They are the perfect option for individuals who want to plan ahead for future care needs, while focusing on enjoying every day. Source: lifeplancommunity.org

In keeping with their goal to make sure that Life Plan Communities are as good as they can be, for current residents as well as future residents, NaCCRA developed a model bill of rights that can be adopted by Life Plan Communities throughout the country. Several states have already enacted a legislative Bill of Rights for Life Plan Community residents.
Model Bill of Rights The residents of a Life Plan Community have the right to: 1. Expect full, prompt and complete fulfillment by the management of those services delineated in their contracts. 2. Establish, organize, fund, develop by-laws for, and operate a resident association. 3. Freely assemble, with or without the participation of management and staff. 4. Select and appoint, in accordance with the resident association’s own by-laws, at least three members of the corporate governing board. 5. Be kept informed by the administration, on an ongoing basis, about all significant issues of management,
which directly affect residents’ well-being or their financial investment. 6. Full disclosure of the finances of the corporation, presented at least on an annual basis. 7. A plain English list of those services guaranteed by the contract, as well as a list of those services offered by the community but not guaranteed in the contract. 8. Visit the assisted living and skilled nursing facilities, as well as all the amenities associated with independent living, before signing a contract. 9. Be informed in advance of, and to comment on, changes in the delivery of services, including changes in staffing levels. Continued on page 37

life plan communities HOUSING
Reviewing Life Plan Contracts Understanding different options Life Plan Communities 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 resident can move up or down this continuum of care for the rest of their life. Most Life Plan Communities 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 Life Plan Community contracts. An extensive contract covers shelter, residential services, and amenities, plus unlimited long-term nursing care without an increase in monthly payments. 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 contract covers shelter, residential services and amenities, plus a specified amount of nursing care. After the specified amount has been received, the resident can re-
PRESENTING THE
ceive care at daily or monthly nursing care rates. A fee-for-service contract covers shelter, residential services and amenities. While emergency and shortterm nursing care is usually included in the contract, access to long-term nursing care is guaranteed only at daily rates. Entrance and monthly fees are lower because residents are responsible for all long-term nursing and health care costs. Most Life Plan Communities provide a variety of residential services that may be covered by monthly fees or be available at extra cost, depending on the contract. Potential residents should carefully review all contract options available to new residents.

HOUSING Independent Living
Independent Living Communities Providing security with no home maintenance Independent living communities are residential communities for active older adults who want an enjoyable lifestyle free of the worries of home maintenance. They are similar to any apartment, condominium or single-family development, except that they provide special services, including security. Most independent living communities are fully secured with staff members greeting and screening all visitors around the clock. As many individuals at this stage in their lives are looking to pursue new hobbies and interests, the activities and amenities available at a community are a major factor for potential residents. Most independent living communities provide a full range
of activities such as shopping trips, outings to cultural events, organized gatherings and an array of clubs. Some communities also have tennis courts, swimming pools and other amenities. Independent living communities typically offer a variety of meal plans. Residents also have the option of preparing their own meals. Most independent living communities do not offer health care services. However, some communities are affiliated with health care facilities that can provide such care when it is needed. Residents also have the option of purchasing home health care services from outside providers. Most independent living communi-
ties are rental communities, but some are condominiums or single-family communities in which residents purchase their units or homes. Costs and services vary widely. In some communities, a monthly fee covers many services, while in others a fee-for-service system is used. A few communities offer subsidies based on strictly defined need. To learn more, contact your local Area Agency on Aging. Consumers should carefully research the independent living community options in their target areas or neighborhoods. After requesting and reviewing information from communities, prospective residents should plan on-site visits to each community they are considering.
Considering Independent Living Questions for consumers The questions below will help seniors and their families determine if an Independent Living community may be the right choice for them. • Do you feel isolated in your home? • Do you find it difficult to get around your neighborhood? • Do you lack relationships with your neighbors? • Do you have difficulty driving? •D o you wish that someone else would drive you to your errands and appointments? • Do you have a hard time getting out of the house? • Do you frequently go for weeks without seeing friends? • Do you wish you had more of a social life? • Do you miss participating in favorite activities? • Do you find it difficult to run errands alone? •D o you have a difficult time keeping up with home maintenance?
48
• Do you find it challenging to clean your home? • Do you feel unsafe in your home or your neighborhood? • Do you find it hard to climb the stairs into or inside your home? If you answered “yes” to most of the above questions, you may want to consider Independent Living. However, you will also want to consider your current and future health care needs before making a final decision. For instance, if you have a chronic health condition, you may want to consider an Assisted Living community, or a community that offers both Independent Living and higher levels of care on the same campus. For many seniors, Independent Living offers the perfect lifestyle—one with no home maintenance or transportation worries and with plenty of social and recreational opportunities. With a wide array of communities available locally, you are certain to find a community that offers you both the independence you desire and the security you need.

Congregate Meals and Housing Services available in Maryland In Maryland, some apartments participate in the “Congregate Meals” program or the “Congregate Housing Services Program.” Congregate Meals Congregate meals are offered in more than 250 meal sites including senior centers, religious facilities, housing facilities or other community sites throughout Maryland. Many meal program locations are within stateof-the-art facilities and offer a variety of engaging activities such as health promotion and exercise centers. Meal sites offer an opportunity to meet new friends and participate in
other social or health-related programs, including nutrition education, physical activity and health screening. In 2015, seniors received nearly 1.1 million meals in congregate settings throughout Maryland. Congregate Housing Services Program The mission of the Congregate Housing Services Program is to provide support services and state subsidies to eligible residents of low and moderate income senior housing who, due to advanced age or chronic health conditions, need daily help with activities such as meal preparation, housekeeping and personal services.
retirementlivingsourcebook.com | 800-394-9990
The cost of the Congregate Housing Services Program varies by site. Individual program participants contribute to the cost based on a sliding scale. State subsidies are available for eligible residents of participating sites who require financial assistance. To qualify for a subsidy, an individual’s income may not exceed 60 percent of the State median income, and assets may not exceed $27,375 for an individual or $35,587 for a couple. To view a list of congregate housing sites in Maryland or to receive additional information on local housing programs, contact your local Senior Information and Assistance Program or visit aging.maryland.gov.

HOUSING Assisted Living
Assisted Living
Offering needed assistance and rewarding activities Assisted living communities offer a vital option for older adults who need some assistance with daily living. While the specific amenities will vary, all assisted living communities offer basic services, including meals, supervision and security, and help with personal care needs. For many seniors, the help available at an assisted living facility can allow them to continue to live their best life. In most states, assisted living communities are registered, licensed or certified by an appropriate department or agency of the state that has a process for issuance of initial licenses and for renewing existing licenses. This process provides basic protections for consumers. Residents of assisted living communities are generally seniors who need some assistance with basic
activities, frequently called the activities of daily living (or ADLs). Some communities may accept residents with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. In fact, some communities may specialize in serving individuals with specific medical conditions, including dementia. A few communities serve individuals of any age with developmental disabilities. When reviewing assisted living communities, consumers should ask about any specializations the community may have. The services and activities provided in assisted living communities help to promote the quality of life and independence of the residents. One key offering is 24-hour supervision of the residents and the property. Resident safety and security is a priority at all assisted living communities.
All communities also offer three meals a day in a group dining room. However, dining options can vary dramatically in terms of the meals available and the costs associated with meal plans. Finally, all assisted living communities offer personal care services, also known as help with the ADLs. These services include assistance with bathing, dressing and toileting. Other services and activities available at some assisted living communities include: • Medication management, or assistance with self-administration of medicine • Coordination of services by outside health care providers • Assistance with arranging medical, health, and dental care services • Social services

• Transportation services • Outdoor areas for walking or gardening • Supervision and assistance for persons with Alzheimer’s or other dementias and disabilities • Recreational and spiritual activities • Exercise and wellness programs • Laundry and linen service • Housekeeping and maintenance • Individualized services While assisted living communities do provide a high level of care, it is important to consider what is not provided at these communities before selecting one. Assisted living communities are a bridge between living at home and living in a nursing home. Assisted living communities do not typically provide the level of continuous skilled nursing care found in nursing homes and hospitals. For instance, if a prospective resident needs constant care, a nursing home
may be a more viable option. There is no set standard for assisted living accommodations. Therefore, options can vary greatly from one assisted living community to the next. For instance, some communities offer private rooms featuring kitchenettes and private bathrooms, while others offer shared units or shared bathrooms. Consumers must consider the prospective resident’s personal needs, financial means and personal preferences before selecting a community. Assisted living communities are constructed and equipped to comply with a host of local, state and federal regulations. They are operated, staffed and maintained in a manner appropriate to the needs and desires of the residents served. While all communities will meet mandated requirements for safe operation, some communities will far exceed those re-
Woodholme Gardens
quirements, providing extra security features. In particular, communities that provide care for residents with Alzheimer’s or other dementias and disabilities generally feature special designs to assure resident safety and autonomy. Source: www.ahcancal.org

Pay for Assisted Living Know your options when paying for care When considering potential assisted living communities, it is important to research your payment options. Although Medicare does not cover the costs of assisted living, there are a variety of payment sources available. The National Center for Assisted Living reports that “certain services are paid under Supplementary Security Income and Social Services Block Grant programs.” Individuals who meet income qualifications may also be eligible for assistance through their state Medicaid program. Some communities
also offer internal financial assistance programs. State and local governments may offer subsidies for rent to those who are income-eligible. Contact the local Area Agency on Aging for more information on subsidies and other payment assistance programs. Long-term care insurance policies provide another financing option for assisted living. Most of these policies will cover the costs of assisted living. Some of the costs of assisted living are also reimbursable through individual health insurance policies.
retirementlivingsourcebook.com | 800-394-9990
While there are other payment options available, the vast majority of assisted living/personal care costs are covered through private payments by residents and families. Individuals should investigate all available payment sources and obtain specific information on standard rates and fees for additional services before choosing an assisted living community. Financial and insurance experts can provide more detailed information about all the available payment sources.

Nursing & Rehabilitation HOUSING
Nursing & Rehabilitation specialized care for individuals who need daily assistance At a nursing home, care is administered by professionals under the direction of a physician. Many facilities also offer sub-acute, respite, rehabilitation and other short-term care. Rehabilitation services can be especially helpful for individuals who are recovering from surgery, an illness or any other life-changing event. Who is Nursing Care For? These homes serve as permanent residences for individuals who are too sick or frail to live at home, or as temporary facilities during a recovery period. Some enter a nursing home for a short-term stay after a surgery or illness, while others enter on a more permanent basis.
Who Pays for Nursing Care? Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance and personal assets are all used under various circumstances to pay for services in a nursing care facility. If a facility is not certified by Medicare and Medicaid, the care will have to be paid for entirely with personal funds. In general, Medicare pays for skilled nursing care following hospitalization for the same illness or condition at 100 percent of the cost for days 1 – 20. Some long-term care insurance pays for nursing home care; insurance payments are usually a fixed amount for a specified number of qualified days. The basic daily rate is the standard charge the nursing home bills
to all residents, which covers the fundamental services every resident receives, including rent for the room, housekeeping, meals and general nursing care. It is important to understand all the services and amenities that are not included in the basic daily rate. 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.

Paying for Nursing Home Care Nursing home care can be expensive. There are many ways you can pay for nursing home care. For example, you can use your own money, you may be able to get help from your state, or you may use long-term care insurance. Most people who enter nursing homes begin by paying for their care out-of-pocket. As you use your resources (like bank accounts and stocks) over a period of time, you may eventually become eligible for Medicaid. Will Medicare pay for nursing home care? Medicare generally doesn’t cover long-term care stays in a nursing home. Even if it doesn’t cover nursing home care, you’ll need health coverage for hospital care, doctor services, and medical supplies while you’re in the nursing home. Part A covers skilled care provided in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) under certain conditions for a limited time. Skilled care is nursing and therapy care that can only be safely and effectively performed by, or under the supervision of, professionals or technical personnel. It’s health care given when you need skilled nursing or skilled therapies to treat, manage, and observe your condition, and evaluate your care. Medicare covers certain daily skilled care services on a short-term basis (up to 100 days in a benefit period). For more information on Medicare’s coverage of SNF care, visit Medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-6334227). Personal resources You can use your personal money and savings to pay for nursing home care. Some insurance companies let you use your life insurance policy to pay for long-term care. Ask your insurance agent how this works. Important: Be sure to get help before using either of these options.
There are important issues you need to understand. Help from your state (Medicaid) Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that helps with medical costs for some people with limited income and resources. Most health care costs are covered if you qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. Most, but not all, nursing homes accept Medicaid payment. Even if you pay out-of-pocket or with longterm care insurance, you eventually may “spend down” your assets while you’re at the nursing home, so it’s good to know whether the home will accept Medicaid. Check with the nursing home to see if they accept people with Medicaid. Medicaid programs vary state to state. Most often, eligibility is based on your income and personal resources. Many states have higher
retirementlivingsourcebook.com | 800-394-9990
Medicaid income limits for nursing home residents. You may be eligible for Medicaid coverage in a nursing home even if you haven’t qualified for other Medicaid services in the past. Sometimes you won’t be eligible for Medicaid until you’ve spent some of your personal resources on health care. Generally, even if you’re eligible for Medicaid, all of your income (except for a monthly personal needs allowance and amounts considered necessary to support your spouse and family living in the community) will go to pay your nursing home expenses and Medicaid will cover the rest. To get more information on Medicaid eligibility in your state, call your local Medicaid office. Information excerpted from a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services publication. More information is available online at medicare.gov.

Memory Care Specialized Care
Memory Care Knowing when it is time As Alzheimer’s disease or dementia progresses, there often comes a time when the patient will need more care than can be provided at home. For instance, Alzheimer’s patients frequently need 24-hour supervision to ensure their safety. Individuals with late-stage Alzheimer’s or dementia may even need intensive care around the clock. While it may be difficult for family caregivers to turn to a residential care facility to care for their loved one, it is often the best choice for both the patient and the caregiver. The questions below may be helpful when determining if a move to residential care is a good option: • Is the person with dementia becoming unsafe in their current home? • Is the health of the person with
dementia or my health as a caregiver at risk? • Are the person’s care needs beyond my physical abilities? • Am I becoming a stressed, irritable and impatient caregiver? • Am I neglecting work responsibilities, my family and myself? • Would the structure and social interaction at a care facility benefit the person with dementia? Even if a family has planned for a move, making the transition to a residential care facility can be a stressful experience. Caregivers may feel guilty and wonder if they are doing the right thing. These feelings are common. Try to remain focused on the fact that this decision is ultimately about making sure the patient receives the best possible care.

Options for Memory Care Considering a Residential Facility For older adults with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia, moving to a residential memory care facility may be the best option. These communities can offer varying levels of care, depending on the needs of the patient. They also offer valuable peace of mind for family members and caregivers, who may no longer be able to provide care at home. Most retirement living communities offer options for individuals with memory care needs. Before selecting a community, potential residents and their families should carefully evaluate their current and future care needs. Consumers should also familiarize themselves with the wide variety of community options available. More information about housing options is available starting on page 33.
Life Plan Communities These communities provide a full range of care options from independent living to nursing care. Residents with memory care needs would generally move in while they are still healthy and progress to higher levels of care. Assisted Living Assisted living facilities offer additional support for residents, including assistance with the activities of daily living. Many assisted living facilities offer services specifically designed for people with dementia. Skilled Nursing Facilities These communities offer roundthe-clock care for patients. Some nursing homes have specialized units and specially trained staff

to accommodate the needs of patients with dementia. Special Care Units Special Care Units, or SCUs, are also called memory care units and are designed to meet the specific needs of individuals with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. These units are often located within other residential care options. Some of these units are locked or secured for the safety of residents. SCUs generally offer other specialized services, including highly trained staff and activities designed for individuals with varying stages of dementia.

Hospice Specialized Care
Hospice Care Improving the quality of life remaining 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. How Does One Receive Hospice Care? Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance generally require a prognosis of six months or less for services to be covered. In addition to traditional medical hospices, there is a non-medical hospice program in Montgomery County that offers support for patients with a year’s prognosis or less who may choose to continue their curative treatments. Hospice is unique in that care and support are provided to the entire family, not just the patient. A team of skilled professionals and volunteers work to serve the special needs of everyone involved. Choice is at the center of the hospice approach — a person faced with a life-limiting illness is encouraged to remain in control of his or her life. As care is usually provided in one’s
home, many hospice patients live out their lives in the comfort of familiar daily routines, surrounded by their treasured possessions along with family and friends. However, hospice services may also be provided in long-term care facilities or in-patient hospice residential settings. What Services are Provided? Hospice team members focus primarily on managing the patient’s pain and symptoms with medication, medical supplies and equipment. Other services, such as speech and physical therapy, are available if necessary. If managing the symptoms within the home becomes impossible, hospice providers can offer shortterm inpatient care. While family members learn how to properly care for the patient, information and support is also available to help everyone deal with the emotional, psychosocial and spiritual aspects of dying. Surviving loved ones will receive bereavement care and counseling from the hospice professionals. How Do I Pay for Hospice? Most services are fully or partially covered by Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers or prepaid health plans.
The non-medical services available in Montgomery County are free and delivered by a staff of trained volunteers. For traditional hospice services, financial assistance is available. The National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization notes that, “Eighty percent of people who use hospice care are over the age of 65, and are thus entitled to the services offered by the Medicare Hospice Benefit. This benefit covers virtually all aspects of hospice care with little out-of-pocket expense.” To receive the Medicare Hospice Benefit, patients must be eligible for Medicare Part A, have a terminal disease or condition with a less than six months prognosis, and sign a document certifying that they are choosing hospice care instead of routine Medicare benefits. Patients may only receive covered benefits from a Medicare-approved hospice program. In addition to Medicare’s coverage, hospice services are also generally covered by Medicaid or private insurers. Adapted from Caring Connection’s and the American Cancer Society’s websites. For more information, see www.caringinfo.org or the information on hospice care at www.cancer.org.
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.

Hospice Care Use this checklist to review options Many individuals and families could benefit from hospice care but are unaware of how to access hospice services.

Home Care Receive assistance at 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

Home Care - Western Maryland Aging in Place
Pay For Home Care Understanding Costs Can Help With Decision Making As the decision to remain at home is becoming an increasingly popular option, it is important to understand the costs of care and your payment options while researching different home healthcare companies. Costs for companion care are covered primarily by private payments. Home healthcare must also be paid for with private funds, unless it is prescribed by a physician and provided by a Medicare-certified agency. Long-term care insurance policies may cover companion care and home health care. If you qualify for Medicaid, a government program for low-income individuals, it may subsidize some of your home care needs. Since laws vary from state to state, you will need to contact your
local Area Agency on Aging for more information concerning government benefits. Skilled nursing care will be paid for by Medicare as long as it is determined to be “intermittent skilled care,” which includes occupational, respiratory, speech and physical therapy. To be covered, care must be ordered by a doctor. Individuals who meet income requirements may be eligible to receive skilled nursing services through Medicaid. Major medical health insurance will also cover a limited number of skilled home visits. Costs for these services vary greatly depending upon coverage by Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance. Contact your local Office on Aging or State Department of Health to find
out if there are funds from social services block grants available to cover home care costs.

Planning for Care at Home by Phyllis Mensh Brostoff, CISW, CMC, Aging Life Care AssociationTM Member, Fellow of the Leadership Academy If you took a poll of older adults and asked each person if they wanted to remain in their own home until the end of their life, most people would say, “of course.” That is a wonderful goal, which often takes a lot of sound planning to be successful. Anything can get in the way—accidents, illness, lack of energy, declining physical abilities—of achieving your desired independence. It is hard to give up even a little autonomy, but asking for assistance can help keep you where you want to be—in your own home. What if You Become Homebound? If you are recovering from an acute illness, you may be eligible for home health services that are paid for by the Medicare program. An Aging Life
Care Manager™ can help you access licensed home health services by facilitating a conversation with your physician about your need for skilled nursing services, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and/or speech therapy in your home. This is an important conversation to have with your doctor and discharge planner if you are in the hospital or a nursing facility and need to decide on and plan for services in your home once you are discharged. However, Medicare will only pay for these services if you are “homebound.” Homebound is defined as only leaving your home for “medical treatment or short, infrequent absences for non-medical reasons, like attending religious services.”
You may also receive help from a home health aide under the supervision of a professional nurse or therapist. A physical or occupational therapist can evaluate your home and recommend equipment (such as grab bars in the bathroom) that will improve your safety. Accessing services These services must be obtained from a state licensed home health agency certified to provide Medicare-reimbursed services. They may be freestanding agencies, or they may be part of a large, hospital-based organization. Licensed home health services are usually time-limited, ending when you have met the goals Continued on 122

Choosing Home Care 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.
retirementlivingsourcebook.com | 800-394-9990
o W hat procedures does this provider have in place to handle emergencies? Are its caregivers available 24 hours a day, seven days a week? o How does this provider ensure patient confidentiality? o If the hired caregiver becomes ill or otherwise unavailable, what alternate arrangements can be made? o Are social security, federal and state taxes, and unemployment insurance paid so the family is not legally responsible? o Is there verification that the paid caregivers can legally work in the U.S.? o If the hired caregiver is injured, who is responsible? Remember that many homeowners’ insurance policies exclude such injuries via “domestic employee exclusions.” o Are criminal history background checks, state abuse registry checks, and prior work reference checks completed? o Is there bonding and insurance in place that would cover any injury to the client, damage, or theft? When an agency says they are “bonded,” family members should be sure that this covers injury or damages.
Adult Day Care
o H ow long has this provider been serving the community? o Does this provider supply literature explaining its services, eligibility requirements, fees and funding sources? Many providers furnish patients with a detailed “Bill of Rights” that outlines the rights and responsibilities of the providers, patients and caregivers. o How does this provider select and train its employees? o Does it protect its workers with written personnel policies, benefits packages and malpractice insurance? o Are nurses or therapists required to evaluate the patient’s home care needs? If so, what does this entail? o Do they consult the patient’s physicians and family members? o Does this provider include the patient and his or her family members in developing the plan of care? o Are patients involved in making care plan changes? o 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? o 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? o Who can the patient and his or her family members call with questions or complaints? o How does the agency follow up on and resolve problems? o What are the financial procedures of this provider? o Does the provider furnish written statements explaining all of the costs and payment plan options associated with home care?
Many providers furnish patients with a detailed “Bill of Rights” that outlines the rights and responsibilities of the providers, patients and caregivers.

Medicare and Home Care Know the coverage options When it comes to understanding Medicare coverage, many individuals can find themselves confused by a complex web of information. This especially applies to those who want to know if they are eligible for Medicare coverage when entering a nursing home or receiving home health care. Below is some helpful information on whether you can use your home health care benefits if you have Medicare and what services and products it will cover. First, you can use your home health care benefits if all of the following applies to your situation. Your doctor must prescribe that you need medical care at home and create a care plan. The care you need has to be intermittent and in the form of skilled nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy or speech therapy. The home health agency must be Medicare-certified and you must be homebound, or unable to leave the home unassisted. Once you have established those requirements, it is important to understand what Medicare will actually cover, which includes the following: • Home health aide services on a part-time or intermittent basis, as long as there is a skilled need • Medical social services
It is important for older adults and their families to fully understand which home health care benefits will be covered by Medicare and which will require private payments.
• Certain medical supplies • Durable medical equipment (wheelchair, walker, bedside commode, etc.) Given the services and products that Medicare does cover, it is also valuable to take note of what is not covered. Care that is required 24 hours a day will not be covered. Other services not covered include personal care provided by home health aides such as bathing and dressing, along with homemaker services like cleaning and laundry. Also not includ-
retirementlivingsourcebook.com | 800-394-9990
ed are home-delivered meals. If you require care that goes beyond intermittent visits for a limited amount of time, or if your needs are not covered by Medicare, an important option to consider is private duty home care. For more information on Medicare coverage, visit medicare. gov. Information Provided by Family & Nursing Care/Legacy Home Care and adapted from medicare.gov.

Planning for Care at Home Continued from 109 of treatment and the need for the skilled care has ended. If you have enrolled in a Medicare Advantage program, you may also have access to additional services such as home visits after a hospitalization. Other Home Care Services Many other care services are provided in the home but are not licensed or paid for by Medicare. An Aging Life Care Manager can help you understand what they can offer, access reputable services, and monitor them on an on-going basis.

Non-Medical Aides, Companions and Homemakers There are many types of paid care giving services available—often called non-medical aides, companions and homemakers—who many people hire privately. If you do, you or your family should check at least two work-related references, develop a specific set of tasks and expectations for the caregiver, arrange to pay all appropriate taxes, and have the required insurance coverage. Caregiver services can also be arranged through an agency. While this may cost more per hour than hiring an aide yourself, hiring an agency assures
you of coverage when the aide is sick, on vacation or quits. The agency also carries liability insurance and is responsible for all employment taxes and employee bonding. An Aging Life Care Manager can help you find a reputable agency and get important questions answered, such as: do they check police and driver license records; do they provide supervision; how do they handle cancellations; and how long have they been in business?

Adult Day Centers & Services Aging in Place
Adult Day Care Providing socialization and care Adult Day Centers are an important option for family caregivers, as they offer socialization, activities, and necessary supervision to those who are socially isolated or need care and assistance. Caregivers can feel confident that their loved one is safe and well cared for while they are at work or performing other necessary tasks. Centers offer a variety of programs and amenities, including exercise programs and a diverse schedule of engaging activities. Assistance with the activities of daily living, including eating, walking, toileting and medication management may also be available. Additionally, many centers offer physical, speech and occupational therapies to their participants. All licensed centers provide nutritious meals and snacks on a daily basis. Choosing a Provider Information on local Adult Day Centers may be available through senior centers, family physicians or the local Area Agency on Aging. After locating nearby providers, call them to request flyers, brochures, calendars and application information. While reviewing this information, pay careful attention to how many years the provider has been in business and their licensures and certifications. Be sure to understand the staff credentials, staff to participant ratio, and the medical conditions the facility and its staff are equipped to handle. Inquire about the availability of transportation to and from the program if it is necessary. The types of activities offered and the menu variety should be considered as well.
