The campaign focuses attention on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits.

Rock County Council on Aging Provides Funding to Purchase New Project LifeSaver Units The Rock County Council on Aging has partnered with the Rock County Sheriff’s Department with a grant of $1800 to purchase an additional six more Project Lifesaver units. The Rock County Sheriff’s Office implemented the Project Lifesaver Program in 2010. The primary mission of Project Lifesaver is to provide timely response to save lives and reduce potential injury for adults and children have Alzheimer’s, Autism, and any other circumstances that people may have that creates a danger of them wandering off. The task of searching for wandering or lost individuals with Alzheimer’s, Autism, Down Syndrome, Dementia or other cognitive conditions is a growing and serious responsibility. Citizens enrolled in Project Lifesaver
wear a small personal transmitter around the wrist or ankle that emits an individualized tracking signal. If an enrolled client goes missing, the caregiver notifies the Rock County Dispatch Center, and a trained emergency response team responds to the wanderer’s area. Most who wander are found within a few miles from home, and search times have been reduced from hours and days to minutes. Recovery times for Project Lifesaver clients average 30 minutes — 95% less time than standard operations. To date, twenty-one participants ranging in age from 6 to 88 have been enrolled in Rock County’s Program. For more information please visit www.projectlifesaver.org or contact the Rock County Sheriff’s Department at 757-7961.

CONSUMER ALERT: The Real Virus in a Tech Support Scam? The Scammer.
MADISON – If you receive a call out of the blue claiming that your computer has a virus and that the caller can help you get rid of it, hang up immediately. It is a scam. These “tech support” scams have been around for a long time and are very common. The callers often falsely claim to represent Microsoft or a local tech support company to gain the consumer’s trust. They tell the consumer that they can remove the (non-existent) virus from their computer for a fee.
The caller asks the victim to download software from the internet that grants them remote access to the system. If you allow these scammers to access your computer, they can load any number of malicious software programs onto your machine and they may access your files as well. For people who shop, file taxes, access medical records or bank online, a computer may hold a wealth of personal and financial information including Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses and banking and routing account numbers. Giving access to a computer-savvy scammer is a recipe for disaster. In addition, these scammers often require payment for their “services” by phone using a credit card. With the victim’s card numbers, the
*Housekeeping *Meal Prep *Alzheimer’s Care *Personal Care *Errands
scammer is likely to pile on additional charges to the account. Again, if you receive one of these tech support phone calls, simply hang up. If you fear that your system may actually be infected with a virus, contact a trusted local tech support company instead. For additional consumer information or to file a complaint, visit the Consumer Protection Bureau at datcp.wisconsin.gov, send an e-mail to datcphotline@wisconsin.gov or call the Consumer Information Hotline at 800-422-7128.

Leona Petit has lived in Beloit since she was nine years old and has raised her family here. When Leona moved to Riverside Terrace in early 2011, she didn’t realize how many residents would be familiar faces. “Some of us even had our first jobs together,” she explains. “It’s so nice to not be alone and feel so comfortable.” What else does Leona like about her Riverside Terrace apartment?
“I can’t come up with anything I don’t love!” she replies. She enjoys the programs, delicious food, and is one of the “Baking Ladies” concocting goodies for the residents. Her doctor and children wanted her to live where she could “be active” and she is!

National Nutrition Month® Bite Into a Healthy Lifestyle
cheese or watch the portion of how much high fat dairy you are using? If cheese is your vice, can you watch the portion and frequency that you eat it? Let’s be honest, we live in Wisconsin and dairy is a part of life, but how much of a part is up to you.
March is National Nutrition Month® which is a time for us all to take a moment to be grateful for the plethora of food available to us and reflect on the healthy habits that we do or do not have as part of a daily routine. The theme for this year is “Bite Into a Healthy Lifestyle,” which is acknowledges that a healthy lifestyle includes the foods we eat, physical activity, food safety, sleep, relaxation, and countless other things that make our lives complete. Finding balance is an important part of wellness, and making healthy choices while still enjoying the foods can make a difference in our physical health as well as our mental well-being. For most people eating is a pleasurable necessity, so finding pleasure in nutritious foods is getting the best of both worlds. So what will your “Bite” be? Take a minute and think about your healthy and possibly not-sohealthy habits. If you need some ideas, here are some “mini bites” to get you started.
• Switch to whole grains. Try something new like a whole wheat English muffin, wild rice, or a whole wheat tortillas or barely as part of your meal. Balance: Find the whole grains that are enjoyable, and make the permanent switch. If there are some grains that are just not enjoyable, then stick with your standard. With the goal of making half of the grains you eat whole grains, even changing one or two to whole grains makes a difference!
• Low fat or fat free dairy. While many
people will say that 1% or fat free milk “taste like water,” foods like yogurt, cottage cheese, and sour cream the change is not as noticeable. Balance: If the taste quality of a higher fat dairy product is something you just can’t compromise, consider what some foods are that you can make the change. For example, if you can’t do without 2% milk, can you use 1% or fat free yogurt and cottage
• Choose lean protein foods. If you grew up on meat and potatoes, then meat is likely an expected staple of a meal. The more we know about nutrition, the more we learn that red meat should be a “sometimes” food versus an “always” food. Trying different kinds of protein foods can be a really healthy change. Using plant proteins like nuts, peanut butter, beans, or soy are inexpensive and easy. Balance: If you are not ready to make the meat change, be aware of the portion. The protein food at a meal should only take up a ¼ of the plate. If there is more than that on your plate, cut back add some more vegetables! • Pile the plate with produce: Fresh, canned, or frozen fruits and vegetables should be a part of every meal and ideally should make up ½ of the meal! With a huge selection available in grocery stores, finding at least a small list of likes should be pretty easy. During winter months, try the frozen version if it is less expensive. Balance: If ½ of your plate or a fruit/vegetable at every meal is a lofty goal, start small and build. Typically when people start with reasonable goals and work at them until they become a habit, those habits can be hard to break. In this case, that would be a good thing! So take a “Bite” and see where it takes you. Reprinted from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics at www.nationalnutritionmonth.org

Social Security to Expand Field Office Hours Nationwide
Budget for Fiscal Year 2015 Allows Agency to Restore Some Service Hours News Release: LaVenia J. LaVelle, Press Officer, press.office@ssa.gov
Social Security announces as a result of Congress’ approval of the fiscal year 2015 budget, the agency will expand its hours nationwide and offices will be open to the public for an additional hour on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, effective March 16, 2015. A field office that is usually open from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. will remain open until 4:00 p.m. Offices will continue to close to the public at noon every Wednesday so employees have time to complete current work and reduce backlogs. “This expansion of office hours reaffirms our commitment to providing the people we serve the option of top-notch, face-toface assistance in field offices even as we work to expand online services for those who prefer that flexibility,” said Carolyn W. Colvin, Acting Commissioner of Social Security. “The public expects and deserves world-class customer service and thanks to approved funding, I am pleased we will continue our tradition of exceptional service.”
Now Open!
In recent years, Social Security reduced public office hours due to congressional budget cuts, growing backlogs and staffing losses. The agency began recovery in fiscal year 2014 by replacing some field office staffing losses and providing overtime support to process critical work. With the commitment of resources in fiscal year 2015, the agency is able to restore some service hours to the public. Most Social Security business does not require a visit to a local field office. Many services, including applying for retirement, disability and Medicare benefits, creating a my Social Security account, replacing a Medicare card, or reporting a change of address or telephone number are conveniently available anytime at www.socialsecurity.gov. Social Security also offers assistance via a toll-free number, 1-800-7721213 (Voice) and 1-800-325-0778 (TTY). Representatives are available from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday thru Friday. Editor’s note: The local Social Security office is located at 222 N. Academy St., Janesville, WI 53548. The phone number is (877) 850-7826. Their current hours are Mon – Tue 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM; Wed 9:00 AM to 12:00 AM; Thu – Fri 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM.

• Corned beef and cabbage is a traditional St. Patrick’s Day dish. In 2009, roughly 26.1 billion pounds of beef and 2.3 billion pounds of cabbage were produced in the United States. • Irish soda bread gets its name and distinctive character from the use of baking soda rather than yeast as a leavening agent. • Lime green chrysanthemums are often requested for St. Patrick’s Day parades and celebrations.

Looking for the “Value” in Finding Home Care Solutions
Y
ou would maybe agree that given a corresponding need, there is value in taking advantage of home care services. You probably are aware that there is more than one home care agency available in the area. Doing your home care “homework” is essential. However, what is more “black and white,” such as pricing, scheduling and hiring practices, should be overshadowed in your mind by a home care provider’s stated Values in giving compassionate care and exceptional service. This way of thinking will more often result in Peace of Mind. According to Wikipedia, Values are: “Broad preferences concerning appropriate courses of action or outcomes.” The words “broad” and “appropriate” in relation to values certainly tells us that we will not all agree on the level of importance of each value in relation to home care for ourselves or for a loved one. However, I think we can all agree that each value discussed here is significantly important to the overall success of caring for individuals and families.

► Accountability means delivering what is promised, when it is promised and in the way it is promised. Talk about the scheduling process and the plan of care. ► Compassion means that you and your family and friends are treated with dignity, respect and
sincerity in all interactions. ► Diversity means you are comfortable that more than one opinion is considered and differences are respected. ► Excellence means striving to be the best. Has the agency achieved any type of national accreditation that holds them to high standards? ► Family means that there are agency indicators of teamwork, sharing success and a good life/work balance. ► Generosity means that there is evidence that the agency is an active participant in giving back to their communities through sponsoring events, doing volunteer work and donating to charities. ► Integrity means that from the initial phone call through all contact with the agency, people are honest, genuine and forthcoming. The biggest VALUE of course, is your Peace of Mind! Submitted by Pam Hatfield, Branch Manager, BrightStar Care of Janesville

You Have a Choice When Choosing a Home Health Care Agency
ew things are more overwhelming than making decisions in the middle of a health situation. Even the easiest things seem like quantum physics when you’re experiencing a hospital stay – Where should we park the car? Do we call all the family for updates? Who is going to walk the dogs while we’re away? And if your hospital visit is of the unexpected kind, that just throws another wrench into things. When you are discharged from a hospital, you or your loved one may need continued care at home and you’ll need to make a decision on a home health agency. The importance of home health care is often overlooked and is often confused with unskilled home care, which generally provides non-medical care, assisting with dressing, bathing, eating and other daily activities. Skilled home care is a critical part of the healthcare system, providing care for homebound patients with medical or therapy needs on a short-term or long-term basis. Skilled home care can be provided wherever a patient lives such as their own home or apartment, a relative’s home, assisted living facility, etc. According to federal law, Medicare patients being discharged from a hospital have freedom of choice in choosing a
home health agency to provide skilled care for them. Patients covered by other types of insurances may be restricted to certain preferred providers, so be sure to check your specific insurance coverage. Being a wise health care consumer can come in handy when you feel pressured for an answer. Here are some points to consider: • Ask for some time to make your decision. • Ask yourself what is important to you? • Do you want to be serviced by an agency that has a history of obtaining high patient quality outcomes of care?
“ Mercy Hospice
gave us peace.”
—Lucy Nordeng, wife pictured with Kathy Patrick, Mercy Hospice caregiver
“We were overwhelmed by the loving care the entire Mercy Hospice team gave my husband and me. I can’t say enough about how wonderful they were during a very difficult time.” Call us for more information about the quality care we provide and how it improves quality of life, (608) 754-2201.
• Do you want an agency that has been in business for a long time? • Do you want an agency that provides a variety of services so you have continuity of care as your needs change? You should be provided with a list of certified agencies to choose from by the hospital staff. You may ask your hospital staff for a recommendation on which agency to choose and they are able to respond as follows: “As you can see from this list, our hospital owns this agency” or “This provider has a specialty program on orthopedics which is the focus of care you need, maybe you’d like to choose it” or “This agency has consistently scored high
in the national HomeCare Elite survey of certified home health agencies across the country, maybe you’d like to choose it.” Then you as the patient need to make a choice and let your choice be known to the hospital staff. If you have a planned upcoming hospital stay, it is a good idea to research your options ahead of time. Contact area home health care agencies for information, ask family or friends for recommendations, or check out online resources such as the Home Health Compare page on Medicare’s website, to help you make the best decision for you and your loved ones. Have questions about Home Health Care? Home Health United can help. Call 800-924-2273 to schedule an informational visit to go over options available from Home Health United.

38th Janesville CROP Hunger Walk — “Marching to a Million” By Deb Fischer, CROP Chair $969,819 is a huge number representing a huge effort on the part of the churches in Janesville over the past 37 years. $969,819 is the total dollars raised by participants in 37 CROP Hunger Walks in Janesville. The basic premise of CROP Hunger Walks is churches recruit people to walk/run either 2k, 5k or 10k on a Sunday afternoon in April. Some years the weather has been absolutely picture perfect; other years it has been cold and rainy. It does not matter what the weather conditions, people walked! They walked because of a promise made to all who supported them financially that they would walk. And they walked because they care passionately about children, youth and adults who go to bed hungry night after night after night. They know 75% of the funds raised will go to help fight hunger in developing countries and 25% stays in Janesville to support the excellent work of ECHO. While you are reading this article, I invite you to take a quarter either out of your pocket or out of your purse. Place it on the page and look at it for a minute. That quarter is the size of an arm of a
five-year-old in a developing country. Malnutrition causes the body to deteriorate. That’s when organs fail. The body wastes away and death is not far behind. Participation in CROP Hunger Walks does more than just provide food and water. It saves lives! In 2014 the CROP Hunger Walk gave $9,675.00 to ECHO. The donation comes during the summer months when overall donations decrease. It provides necessary resources at an extremely critical time of the year. Your efforts and donations make a difference to your neighbors in Janesville.
The CROP Hunger Walk in 2015 will be Sunday, April 26th. We will gather at Cargill United Methodist Church at 1:00 pm. We are actively recruiting participants in the first Walk which was in 1977. If you participated in that Walk, please contact Deb Fisher (608-743-0937). We would like you to be one of our honorary leaders. Crossing the million-dollar threshold is an historic occasion. Therefore we would like the early participants, as well as those who have walked each of the 37 years, to be our honorary leaders. All church recruiters and Pastors are invited to a complimentary breakfast at the Citrus Café on Saturday, March 7th at 8:30 am. You will receive your CROP materials for your congregation that morning.
The important dates to remember are:
▪ March 7th ,8:30 am: Complimentary breakfast at the Citrus Café for all recruiters and Pastors ▪ April 26th 1:00 pm: 38th Annual CROP Hunger Walk Reprinted from the Winter 2015 “The ECHO Times” newsletter.

Microwave Ovens Cook Food Fast and Safe
Cooking for one or two people can be a challenge. Microwave ovens can be valuable for this purpose. But are they really safe? And do they impact nutrition? Foods cooked in a microwave oven actually keep more of their vitamins and minerals because microwaves cook food quickly with just a little water or fat. Both heat and moisture can deplete nutrients so shorter cooking times and less water is a winning combination. The biggest problem with microwave cooking is not the oven but the container you use in the oven. Most plastic containers should not be used in a microwave because they can melt. Of course, do not use metal in a microwave. It is best to always use a container that is labeled as microwave safe. Reprinted from the Iowa Nutrition Network July 2013 newsletter
