TABLE OF CONTENTS

Seniors certainly want to remain in their own homes, whether it is their own residence and/or wherever that may call home in their Golden Years.

Hearts in Motion Aids Seniors in Guatemala Soon after Heart’s In Motion opened our Children’s home in Gualan, Guatemala we realized children weren’t the only age group that needs help and attention, there were plenty of seniors. In Guatemala agriculture is the main source of income, so when age slows you down or physical ailments hold you back there is no work. In a country with few living with benefits or any type of government assistance, if you don’t work you don’t eat. In 2015 we opened our own Senior Center in which a group of 39 seniors gathers for a meal, crafts and outside activities. Having our Senior Center on the same property as our Reese House for children has been beneficial to both our seniors and children. Our senior men are excited to help our teenage boys learn all they can about gardening and grow enough vegetables to feed both houses. Our senior women are eager to help all our young girls learn the art of knitting and artisan

work. It’s a win, win for all involved and our seniors; some without any families are able to take an important role in these children’s lives. They can become the grandparent they never had. We here at Heart’s In Motion are proud of how we are serving internationally and right here in our own communities. But we need help. Help to continue all the programs. To help us fund our programs, Hearts In Motion opened a resale shop at 2210 US Hwy. 41, Schererville, IN 46375 Come in and volunteer with Hearts In Motion and think about us as you downsize or move into your next home. Your donation of furniture or household items can help us change the lives of people in need. Editor’s Note: Submitted by Kimberly T Berryman, Community Relations Director and Volunteer Recruitment. You may contact Kim at kimberryman@heartsinmotion.org or visit our website at www.heartsinmotion.org

Senior Oral Health Care – The Oral/Systemic Link Can you imagine not being able to brush your own teeth? Perhaps it is due to arthritis, poor vision, or dementia. Your inability to perform routine and effective oral hygiene care leads to dental decay and likely periodontal (gum) disease. It can also contribute to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and aspiration pneumonia. Controlling your diabetes will be much more difficult. Oral hygiene care is more than routine grooming like brushing one’s hair, or shaving—it is infection control! Inflammation of the gums will negatively effect overall health. The mouth is connected to the body! The blood that is in the infected gum tissue is the same blood that is traveling to the heart. Many seniors have had the benefit of preventative dental care. They have their natural teeth! Who will take the responsibility for caring for them when they can no longer care for themselves? This responsibility falls on the family or caregiver. Basic steps can be taken to assist and encourage oral hygiene care. AT HOME Be prepared. Set up the toothbrush with a thin layer of toothpaste in the bathroom. Have a cup of water ready to rinse. (If rinsing is not possible, use a thin layer infant toothpaste gel—it is safe to swallow) Have the individual stand (if possi-

ble) or sit at the sink. Hand the toothbrush to the individual and ask them to brush. If this is not possible, place the toothbrush in their dominant hand and have your hand over theirs and gently brush. Ask your dental professional (dentist or dental hygienist) what might work best for cleaning between the teeth. IN MEMORY CARE/ASSISTED LIVING Ask who is providing oral hygiene care (brushing and between the teeth oral hygiene care) and how often. Once a day? Twice a day? What training did the caregiver receive? How is your loved one responding to this oral care? Are they cooperative? What steps are being taken to make it successful? One of the main reason seniors are hospitalized is aspiration pneumonia (AP.) AP is the inflammation of the lungs caused by breathing in foreign material. Where is that material coming from to “set up shop” in the lungs? Many times, the mouth! Hospitalization and antibiotics may be needed to prevent respiratory failure. One’s overall health depends on quality oral health! Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Mary Jensen RDH, MS. Mary is a Registered Dental Hygienist and the Lead Oral Care Specialist with the HyLife Oral Health Alliance and provides weekly oral hygiene care to dependent seniors.

Medicaid Planning for the Elderly Becoming elderly is not for the faint of heart! It’s painful, frustrating, and downright scary at times! For the elderly, they live everyday with the fear of the rising cost of medical care and the fear of no longer being able to make a living. I absolutely love it when I can give the elderly some of their power back! As an elder law attorney, it is an honor to help my elderly clients find ways to preserve their assets and resources while simultaneously obtaining financial assistance for their medical expenses. Many people are unaware that there are techniques generally referred to as “Medicaid crisis plans” which can help an elderly person to obtain Medicaid assistance for long term care in a nursing home while preserving anywhere from 50% to 100% of their resources. Generally, your nursing home facility will either not know about crisis planning or will not be concerned with asset preservation for its patrons. Thus, it is important to speak with an attorney knowledgeable in Medicaid, Medicare, Veterans Benefits, etc. when you enter an assisted living facility or a nursing home. More importantly, it is wise to start and maintain a relationship with an elder law attorney long

before you reach an advanced age. Many techniques utilized by elder law attorneys are done well in advance of needing long term care, generally called “advance Medicaid plans.” In addition, the earlier you plan for a possible stay in a nursing home, the more resources you can preserve when the time comes. Many of my clients who are seeking only an estate plan such as a will, trust, powers of attorney, etc. will simultaneously discuss the dangers and pitfalls of failing to plan for nursing home costs and planning. As a result, when the time comes, I will know their assets, resources, and income and will be prepared to assist them in either crisis planning or advanced planning. In short, whether you are contemplating an estate plan or the cost of nursing home care in the future, it is time to start developing a relationship with an estate planning or elder law attorney. This will allow both you and your attorney to be ready to deal with long term care costs when they arise. It is never too late to start planning ahead.

Rosemary Thomas of Chicago proudly endorses physical ﬁtness and the saying, “If you don’t move it, you will lose it.” After two hip replacements and fluctuating weight, she knew she needed to step up her fitness routine to regain mobility. Joining SilverSneakers® provided her with the consistency she desired and the confidence she needed to begin fine-tuning her body. In addition to attending SilverSneakers classes regularly, she loves cardio and dancing. Thomas encourages others to get active and says, “Don’t meet me at the gym; beat me getting to the gym.” In 2016, Thomas was selected as

As Thomas’ story shows, fitness is personal. Each individual should exercise where, when and how they want. That’s why SilverSneakers has built a national network of more than 13,000 participating locations and fitness centers – use the pool at one location in the morning, jog on a treadmill at another in the afternoon And take a class at another gym in the evening. In addition, the program includes SilverSneakers FLEX®, with more than 70 unique types of classes in convenient neighborhood locations, such as churches, recreation centers and older-adult living communities.

There is a plethora of articles about how to prevent and treat brain health conditions such as dementia and Alzheimer’s, as well as how to ensure a healthy brain. Research efforts are immense, as brain health is a major concern across this country. M.D. Anderson, a world-renowned cancer research hospital, is leading a consortium to organize these research efforts. At a recent public panel discussion on brain health, the leader of that consortium answered a question on everyone’s mind: What does the research say is most effective for preventing dementia? His answer, and the answer in all of these articles, revolves around three things in particular: exercise, the importance of social interaction, and cognitive rehab. What is cognitive rehab? Think of it in terms of taking your brain out for a walk. To keep your brain healthy, it needs to be using the skills you want to hold on to. Whether that means verbal/visual memory, concentration, processing speed or deductive reasoning, the old adage of “use it or lose it” applies. So, the question arises, “In senior living communities, who is providing this service on an individual basis, if at all?” Inspire Senior Care is a psychology

group that is introducing this service to senior living communities across Illinois. Whether it’s independent living, assisted living or memory care communities, Inspire hopes to bring this service to as many seniors as can benefit from it across the state. This has been a highly successful program in Texas, but being an Illinois owned company, Inspire is now reaching out to you. They do this service without having seniors sign any contracts, and if they have Medicare Part B coverage or various other PPO insurance plans, they can offer this service at no out of pocket expense. If your community would like to learn more, have them contact David Lawton at 815-603-6162 or email him at david@inspireseniorcare.com to schedule an appointment.

Wisdom – perspective - time to do the things you enjoy – these are just a few of the things gained with age. However, as we get older, we may have more difficulty performing tasks that were previously done with ease. We may find the day-to-day activities, more challenging, and that can be frustrating.

Are there products or services that can assist you in better addressing your challenges? If driving has become more difficult, ask family and friends to set up a ride schedule

While you’re at it, be sure to make time to nurture your hobbies, or take up new ones.

be admitted to the particular hospice agency 24/7? If a patient qualifies for hospice care, they should be admitted as early as the family requests. Many agencies admit patients to hospice, 24/7, evenings weekends, and holidays.

GRIEF SUPPORT GROUPS – Grief is the normal and universal reaction humans have to the loss of those they love. When your loved one passes, you may go through a period of bereavement and experience grief. Each Hospice Agency will have a grief and bereavement support program. Many provide Grief Groups that meet and address issues of Grief in a supportive group setting. INDIGENT PATIENTS – Does the hospice accept non funded or indigent patients? This is usually on a case by case basis and at the determination of the hospice company. Many have a non-profit organization that can help support the care of non-covered patients. Many Hospice agencies utilize Social Workers to help find resources for indigent families. LICENSED MASSAGE THERAPY – Massage has become one of the fastest growing trends in therapy for hospice patients. Used as a method for relaxation to alleviate stress, anxiety and pain with a light handson approach, as well as providing an alternative to those who can’t take

medication or prefer not to, massage therapy has become essential in hospice care. This is not reimbursed by Medicare; it is an added benefit that select hospice companies have decided to provide for their patients.

MUSIC THERAPY – Music Therapy is an established healthcare profession that uses music to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals” A music therapist is not just a music performer, but actually trained in counseling and music. A music therapist creates goals and objectives for their patients and uses music activities and music experiences (listening, composition, improvisation, or playing/singing a familiar song) in order to achieve those goals. This is not reimbursed by Medicare; it is an added benefit that select hospice companies have decided to provide this to their patients.

PAIN PUMPS AVAILABLE – Many patients have their symptoms controlled through oral medications. Some situations require a pain pump where medications are administered through an IV pump. If this is the situation, inquire with the hospice RN case manager to see if pain pumps are available through their agency. PCP-OVERSIGHT – Can the hospice patient retain their own primary care physician in addition to the hospice medical director?

HOSPICE CARE

Transitions Hospice: It’s About Living Transitions Hospice was founded with a very simple and basic philosophy“Keep People at Home”. The concept of hospice care is a mystery to many. It is something no one wants to think about until they have to. However, people do have basic expectations about the type of service they would want to receive from hospice care. Being able to stay at home, surrounded by loved ones, having nurses, aides, social workers and spiritual counselors present at the times that they need them to be there, hospice staff being present when a person passes are just a few examples. Many hospices don’t live up to those basic expectations. Research has shown that the national average for hospice staff being present when someone passes in a home setting is under 18%. That means 82% of families handle this delicate and emotional situation without the support of the team that was hired to do just that. At Transitions, every day is focused on helping patients and families live life to the fullest. We have nurses and support staff available 24/7 365 days per year because we know that health care is not a convenient 9 to 5 service. It is individualized around the clock care, meeting patients and families whenever and wherever they need it most. Jim Palazzo (founder of Transitions Hospice) puts it this way “Most people

working in health care are compassionate. But we have people that are passionate. They come to work every day with one goal in mind- making every patient feel like they are the only patient you’ll visit that day.” At Transitions, we have a core belief that no one should die alone. We’ve translated that belief into action by being present at over 90% of patient deaths last year. We know that this layer of support and comfort is what families expected when they sought out hospice care. Transitions offers a wide array of community based services, including home health, palliative care, physician services and private duty caregivers. Our philosophy is to empower patients and families by providing medical, emotional, and social service support that is necessary to embrace life. That philosophy fuels all the services that we provide and guides our company mission. Transitions operates under three fundamental principles (Our Commandments): Commit to Caring Each Patient Is Unique Always Do the Right Thing

“It’s About Living” Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Jim Palazzo. Jim is founder and owner of Transitions, a community based health care organization providing services throughout the states of IL and IN. He can be reached at 847-515-1505 or by email at info@transitionshospice.com

HOSPICE CARE

There’s No Place Like Home Near the End of Life As people get close to retirement age, many face questions about where they are going to live as they get older. According to AARP, nearly 90 percent of seniors want to stay in their own homes as they age. Even if they need day-to-day assistance or ongoing healthcare, most (82 percent) would prefer to “age in place.” With that in mind, if you want to age in place, planning for the future is key. Making decisions about remodeling the home to accommodate health-related changes and clearly assigning caregiving responsibilities are important steps. Such planning should include directives about your healthcare wishes, especially for tough situations – such as

near the end of life, when you may need hospice care. Hospice focuses on maintaining the patient’s comfort level and quality of life during their last six months of life by treating physical symptoms, providing pain management, and addressing emotional and spiritual concerns. As the nation’s leading provider of end-of-life care, VITAS Healthcare brings hospice services to you or your loved one, in the place they call home. An interdisciplinary hospice team – physician, nurse, hospice aide, chaplain, social worker, volunteer – brings clinical, compassionate hospice care to patients wherever they live, whether a private residence, assisted living facility or a nursing home.

Most people have heard the terms Assisted Living and Supportive Living, many people use the terms interchangeably and believe the programs are the same.

While the programs are somewhat similar there are differences that anyone looking for a community should be aware of. Supportive Living is a program that is regulated and administered by The Department of Healthcare and Family Services. Illinois developed the program as an alternative to nursing home placement for low-income seniors, 65 or older, or persons with disabilities, 22 to 64. The program allows for these individuals to remain in a community setting, while focusing on health and wellness. Residents are responsible for the room and board costs of their apartment and are entitled to keep $90 per month out of their income, the remaining income is paid to the supportive living community. Medicaid then supplements the cost of care above and beyond the amount the resident paid to the community. There are communities that are licensed for the 65 and older population while there are a few in the Chicagoland area that are licensed for the 22 to 64 age group. Supportive Living requires a pre-screen know as a Determination of Need (DON) prior to moving in. These screens are completed by an independent agency. Assisted Living is a program that is regulated by the Illinois Depart-

ment of Public Health. The intent of legislation for Assisted Living Facilities and Shared Housing Establishments was to provide residential environments designed to meet the ever changing needs of the elderly population, so that they can remain as independent as possible. Assisted living establishments have an age requirement of 55 or older and residents pay privately for their apartment and care needs. Cost per assisted living vary per community and it is important to get a full list of prices for room and board and care charges. A physician certification is required prior to moving into an assisted living community and should be completed by the potential residentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s primary care physician. Asbury Court located in Des Plaines offers; Independent Living, Assisted Living, Supportive Living, and a new Skilled Nursing facility scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2018. You can call (847) 228-1500 to inquire about services or to learn which program might be right for you or a loved one. Asbury Gardens in North Aurora offers; Supportive Living, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing. You can call (630) 896-7778 to inquire about services and availability. Asbury of Kankakee in Kankakee offers Supportive Living. Please call (815) 963-1000 to inquire about availability.

A Whole New World of Senior Living Adult children and their aging parents often find information about senior housing to be confusing, frustrating and overwhelming, but it doesn’t need to be. Most people agree they want to maintain their privacy and independence. However, adult children often need confidence in knowing their parent is not only safe, but also has a support system in place – should they need it in the future. Before you begin pounding the pavement to find a compromise, it may be helpful to ask yourself a few questions: • Are you looking for a community that meets your current active agenda, but can also accommodate future health changes with support through the end of life? • Are you recovering from an injury, illness or event and not really sure what long-term setting is the right fit for your loved one? • Are there increasing concerns about personal care, nutrition, isolation or safety? • Are you managing challenges related to progressive memory loss, age related dementia or Alzheimer’s disease? If you answered YES to any question above, a whole new world of senior living is waiting for you to explore! Here are a few tips to consider: • On your first visit, keep the

conversation simple and focus on the uniquely different qualities of each location you visit. Stay in a 30-minute radius of the family hub. • Let the community “feeling” guide you to plan or opt out of a second visit. Often visitors are encouraged to stop-in and join a resident program/activity, plus a meal. • Society may separate by age and category, but the care provider you select should embrace the opportunity to know each resident as a unique and complex individual. This approach provides a roadmap for person centered care services and long-term success. • Select a solution provider that rejects assumptions based on resident categories or behavioral challenges. Senior communities should commit to the hard work of “doing the right thing” by embracing the importance of heartfelt, personal connections and extraordinary hospitality.

Successful Aging: Importance of Peer Socialization According to CBS News (2012) nearly a quarter of senior citizens have an interest in participating in more social events. The data collected by Statistics Canada (2012) analyzed the barriers many seniors face that may prohibit social outings or participation in activities. The connection between social engagement and self-esteem is very important to observe as our population ages. Here is a guide to understanding the barriers to peer socialization and some key benefits of peer socialization The Barriers to Socialization – Understanding barriers to peer socialization is an important next step in building social “capital”. Health Limitations – Many seniors feel health issues prevent them from participating in social activities. Solution: Researching “senior” based activities can highlight the diversity of social engagement. Not all activities require “physical” strength or you leaving the home for participation. Consider activities such as a puzzle project with a friend, arts & crafts, sewing, jewelry making or learning a new language at a local college. Not Wanting To Go Alone – The fear of conquering activities or outings alone is a major concern for many seniors. Solution – Why not ask a friend or family member to attend an event or

outing with you until you are comfortable? Take a chance and take the opportunity to meet new people! Benefits of Socialization – Research suggests that seniors who are more active members of society through volunteering, visiting friends, attending church, and other outings have a better perceived idea of health. Although this is a subjective assessment of health this perception can positively correlate with self-esteem. If one has positive self-esteem they are more likely to engage in social activities, avoid feelings of being lonely, and have a better quality of life. Improved self-esteem and healthcare can lead to improved relationships with friends and family members. The constant contact between family members or friends through social activity helps one to develop a better support system and better social “capital” among a diverse group of people. The increased social “capital” from different relationships increases the chances of new friendships developing as well as new interest. Research shows that an increased quality of relationships can help with feelings of loneliness and depression. Those individuals who are active throughout the day in social activities have a greater sense of internal control and independence.
