Introduction & Contents “The home should be the treasure chest of living.” – Le Corbusier In its essence, 50plus Living is dedicated to home and everything that concept entails as we age. Whether it’s modifying your current house to accommodate changing needs, downsizing to a smaller residence, or considering the future and the possibility of mobility issues, 50plus Living gathers the resources and housing options available to the 50-plus community in the Susquehanna and Delaware valleys and presents it all in a readable, concise format. We are fortunate to have abundant healthcare, residential, and community resources in Central and Southeastern Pennsylvania, and the 19th edition of 50plus Living is designed to help you navigate the myriad choices available to you when it comes time to consider your changing needs or those of a loved one. In the pages that follow, the housing and care categories that compose 50plus Living are identified and explained and are then presented in descending order of independence: from entirely independent residential living, to assisted living residences, to dementia/Alzheimer’s care facilities, to hospice services and all points in between. Also included are available support services for caregivers, such as respite care and adult day centers. And although 50plus Living is free to you, we hope this publication will be a priceless tool when considering a move or lifestyle change. The businesses and organizations included the pages of 50plus Living are all eager to help you find—and fill—your best “treasure chest.” Regards,

Donna K. Anderson President, On-Line Publishers www.onlinepub.com

How to Use This Guide 1. Determine the type of need by referring to Types of Facilities, Care Options on these two pages. 2. Select the region desired on the map featured on pages 24 and 25. 3. Refer to the Index on pages 44 and 45 for type of facility or care option with corresponding page number. 4. Refer to care codes on pages 10, 14, 21, and 47.

Types of Facilities, Care Options A number of broad categories of care options and facilities are included in this guide. Terminology may vary from facility to facility. Residential living is for individuals who are responsible for their own basic needs. Nursing services are not available on site nor are residential communities affiliated with nursing care providers. No meal service or activity programs are offered. Active Adult Communities are residential-type communities for mature adults only. Individuals are responsible for their own basic needs. Nursing services are generally not available on site. Meal service is not provided. Outdoor maintenance service may be provided. CCRCs (Continuing Care Retirement Communities) are facilities offering a variety of residential living options in addition to comprehensive medical and nursing services. Many CCRCs are selfcontained communities offering educational and recreational activities, dining accommodations, banking facilities, transportation services, etc. Residents move between independent living, assisted living, and nursing care based on changing needs. Retirement Communities are planned for those who are able to care for their

own basic needs (or almost so) who choose to live in a community with other seniors. Organized social programs, meal service, transportation, recreational activities, and access to health and shopping are typical amenities. Nursing care is not usually provided. Some do offer assisted living/personal care designed for individuals who function on their own most of the time but may require assistance with medications, bathing, or dressing. Services offered are similar to those provided by assisted living/personal care facilities. Retirement communities can be freestanding or affiliated with a complex offering nursing care services. Personal Care Homes offer food, shelter, and personal assistance or supervision. They are ideal for people who do not want to forfeit independence and do not require the services in or of a licensed long-term care facility but do require assistance or supervision in activities of daily living (ADL). Some ADL provided are transferring in and out of a bed or chair, toileting, bladder and bowel management, personal hygiene, securing and managing healthcare, self-administering medication, and proper turning and positioning in a bed or chair. 50plus Living 2015

Assisted Living Residences are designed to provide an environment that combines housing and supportive services to allow residents to â&#x20AC;&#x153;age in placeâ&#x20AC;? without having to move to a licensed long-term care facility when their care needs increase. ALRs will have living units with kitchen capacity and private bathrooms and only one person per unit. An ALR may provide services that otherwise would be provided in a long-term care facility (Personal Care Homes may not). As of January 2011, changed regulations regarding licensure for assisted living communities became effective. Nursing/Rehab Facilities provide nursing care and related medical or other personal health services 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to individuals who require full-time care or supervision but do not need more intensive, hospitalbased care. Nursing/rehab facilities may be independent or part of another community. Individuals may be temporarily placed for rehabilitation following an illness, injury, or surgery or reside long term due to illness or aging. Nursing facilities offer skilled medical care under the supervision of licensed nurses, and at least one registered nurse must be on duty during the day. Custodial care is also offered and includes services that assist in the activities of daily living, which include bathing, dressing, using the bathroom, or transferring from a bed to a chair. Nursing centers are licensed by the State Department of Health. Acute Care Facilities are licensed as hospitals. They provide the highest level of care under a physician. Some of the www.onlinepub.com

services provided at an acute care facility include emergency services, critical care, medical/surgical services, and maternal/childbirth services. Dementia/Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s services offer assistance and support to those who are living with memory issues. These units/communities offer the person living with memory issues the opportunity to be as independent as possible while enhancing their freedom of movement in a safe, secured environment. Adult Day Centers offer programs in facilities or function as independent organizations. The services may include but are not limited to personal care, assistance with eating or using the toilet, assistance with taking medication, and social assistance. Centers offer a protective, supervised setting and generally operate during normal business hours. Respite Care provides caregiving opportunities on a short-term basis. Care may range from personal to nursing care. Home Care Services may be provided in a residential setting or as ancillary services, such as in personal care and assisted living or a nursing care environment. Services include skilled nursing services, therapies, and changing and reinforcing simple wound dressing, as well as non-medical services such as light housekeeping, transportation to doctor visits, shopping, respite, and more. Hospice Care is for families living and coping with life-limiting illnesses. Hospice provides professional treatment of pain and symptom management with support and counseling. It includes medical, psychological, and spiritual support.

State Lottery Benefits The Pennsylvania Lottery contributes to programs such as Property Tax/Rent Rebate; the Mass Transit Program; PACE, PACENET, and PACE Plus Medicare; long-term care services administered by the Department of Public Welfare; and the 52 Area Agencies on Aging.

PACE To be eligible for PACE, you must be 65 years of age or older and a Pennsylvania resident at least 90 days before the date of application. You cannot be enrolled in the Department of Public Welfare’s Medicaid prescription benefit.

PACE and PACENET eligibility is determined by your previous calendar year’s income. Effective in 2014, Social Security Medicare Part B premiums are excluded from income. For a single person, your total income must be $14,500 or less. For a married couple, your combined total income must be $17,700 or less. Once you are enrolled in the PACE program, a benefit card will be sent to you, and you will pay no more than $6 for each generic prescription medication and no more than $9 for each brandname prescription at your pharmacy. These co-payments are based on a 30-day supply.

PACENET To be eligible for PACENET, you must be 65 years of age or older, a Pennsylvania resident at least 90 days before the date of application, and you must not be enrolled in the Medicaid prescription benefit program. A single person’s total income must be between $14,501 and $23,500. A couple’s combined total income must be between $17,700 and $31,500. PACENET cardholders that do not enroll in a Part D plan will pay a nominal deductible each month at the pharmacy, which will be calculated through the cost of their medications. If the deductible is not met each month, it will accumulate. In addition, the individual will pay no more than $8 for each generic prescription medication and no more than $15 for each brand name. 50plus Living 2015

PACENET cardholders enrolled in one of the program’s partner Part D plans will pay the Part D premium at the pharmacy each month, which will be calculated through the cost of the medications. PACENET cardholders enrolled in a Part D plan that is not one of the program’s partner plans will pay the Part D premium directly to the Part D plan. In addition, they will pay no more than the PACENET co-payments of $8 for each generic prescription medication and $15 for each brand name. To apply for PACE or PACENET, call (800) 225-7223 or visit the PACECares website at https://pacecares.magellanhealth. com.

PACE Plus Medicare Under PACE Plus Medicare, PACE/PACENET coverage is supplemented by federal Medicare Part D prescription coverage and offers older Pennsylvanians the best benefits of both programs. Older adults continue to receive the same prescription benefits while, in many cases, saving more money.

Transportation Pennsylvania Free Transit Program – Provides free transit service on bus routes, trolley, and rapid-transit lines. Individuals 65 and older may ride free on fixed-route services at all regular operating times on weekdays, weekends, and holidays. You will need a senior citizen transit identification card to ride free. The www.onlinepub.com

identification card is available free of charge from participating local transit operators. Shared-Ride Program – Provides reduced-fare transportation services to persons 65 and older utilizing shared-ride transportation services. Reduced-fare transportation is provided to medical appointments, senior community centers, and adult daycare centers. Mature Driver Safety Program – There is a mandated auto insurance discount for older drivers who complete a mature driver improvement course. Courses are offered through AARP, AAA, and the National Safety Council. It is intended for drivers 55 and older.

Total income must not exceed $19,200 and vehicles must weigh less than 9,000 lbs.

What to Consider When Choosing a Walk-in Bathtub Jim Miller

Dear Savvy Senior, I’m interested in getting a walk-in bathtub for my wife that’s easy for her to get into and out of, but I could use some assistance. Can you offer any consumer tips? – Need Help Dear Need, A walk-in bathtub is a great option for seniors with mobility problems who have trouble getting in and out of a traditional tub. But with so many options available today, choosing one can be challenging. Here are a few tips that can help. Bathtub Basics Walk-in bathtubs are specialty products that have a watertight, hinged door built into the side of the tub that provides a much lower threshold to step over (usually 3 to 7 inches) versus a standard tub that’s around 15 inches. In addition to the low threshold, most walk-in tubs also have a built-in seat, grab bars, anti-slip floors, and a handheld showerhead. And many higher-end models offer therapeutic, spa-like features that are great for www.onlinepub.com

seniors with arthritis and other ailments. The kind of walk-in tub you choose will depend on the size and layout of your bathroom, your wife’s needs and preferences, and your budget. Prices for a good walk-in tub typically run between $3,000 and $10,000 installed. Here are some other things you should know. Quality check: The best walk-in bathtubs on the market today are made in the United States. Also, make sure the company you choose has a lifetime “leak-proof ” door-seal warranty and lengthy warranties on both the tub and the operating system. Tub size: While walk-in bathtubs vary in shape and size, most models have high walls (3 feet or higher), are 26 to 32 inches wide, and will fit into the same 60-inch-long space as your standard tub without having to reconfigure the room. If the walk-in tub doesn’t quite fit Continued on next page 37

your old bathtub space, extension kits are available to ensure a good fit. Door options: Most walk-in tubs have an inward-opening door, but if your wife uses a wheelchair or is a large person, an outward-opening door may be a better option because they’re easier to enter and exit. But be aware that because these doors swing out, they require more bathroom space. One other style to consider is the “rising-wall” bathtub made by Kohler, which sits about 2 feet off the ground and has a side panel that slides up and down. These tubs can be entered from a seated position, which makes it a nice option for wheelchair users. Tub type: Most companies offer several different types of walk-in tubs. The most basic type is a soaker tub, or you can get a therapeutic tub that offers either whirlpool water jets or bubble-massage air jets, or a combination of the two. Fast fill and drain: One drawback to using a walk-in bathtub is that the bather must sit in the tub as it fills and drains, which can make for a chilly experience. 38

To help with this, choose a tub that has fast-filling faucets and pump-assisted drainage systems, which significantly speed up the process. Where to shop: While there are many companies that make, sell, and install walk-in bathtubs, some of the best in the industry are Safe Step (www.safesteptub.com, (800) 346-6616), Premier (www.premiercarebathing.com, (800) 934-7614), American Standard (www.americanstandard.com, (866) 423-0800) and Jacuzzi (www.jacuzzi.com, (800) 288-4002). Many big-box retailers like Lowe’s, Home Depot, and Sears sell walk-in bathtubs too. Unfortunately, Medicare does not cover walk-in bathtubs, but many companies offer financing with monthly payment plans. To get started, contact a few companies who will send a local dealer to your home to assess your bathroom and give you product options and estimates for free.
