Summer tip for Seniors

Stay Safe Druing Travel

If you have travel plans for the summer, ensure your safety and comfort. Consult with your doctor before embarking on any trips to address any health concerns or necessary medications. Plan your itinerary carefully, considering your mobility and accessibility requirements. Pack essential items such as medications, a rst aid kit, and copies of important documents. If ying, request any necessary accommodations from the airline. Take breaks during long drives to stretch and stay hydrated. By taking precautions and preparing ahead, you can make the most of your summer travels.

Hocus Focus

How To Maintain Mental Acuity

Read more. Avid readers may be happy to learn that one of their favorite pastimes can improve the efficiency of their cognitive systems while delaying such systems’ decline. A 2013 study published in the journal Neurology by researchers at Chicago’s Rush University Medical Center found that mentally active lifestyles may not prevent the formations of plaques and tangles associated with Alzheimer’s disease, but such lifestyles decreases the likelihood that the presence of plaques or tangles will impair cognitive function.

Monumental Memories

Full range of cemetery memorials & services. Many granite stones, colors, shapes & engraving options on display. Friendly, caring & here to help!

Proprietors: David & Kathy Cooper (585) 261-0012 5650 County Rd. #41, Farmington, NY 14425 Tues.-Sat. 10-5 or by appointment.

STEPS INVOLVED WITH ESTATE PLANNING

Medical directives. In addition to a will, estate planning includes your wishes if you become incapacitated or suffer from a serious medical condition that precludes you from making decisions about your care and finances. Spouses can be named to make important health decisions, but you may want to indicate other information, such as life support measures or organ donation, as well. If you have strong opinions on treatment, medical directives and living wills are a necessity.
