You hold in your hands our 10th edition of the Seniors Blue Book Sarasota, Manatee and Charlotte Counties! The Seniors Blue Book is a true example of an “Authoritative Publication”. We have worked diligently to provide you with the most comprehensive and up-to-date resources to help our seniors and their caregivers make educated decisions regarding optimal living. 2020 will bring a lot of exciting changes to the services we offer our network! Our website is undergoing a total revamp where we will offer so much more on our new platform – such as an interactive blog, 24/7 chat, and speech recognition options! In addition to our Annual Senior Symposiums, and our Educational Speaker Series (SBB University), we will be

Samantha Hersch Publisher

adding two new and exciting forms of media! Starting in early 2020, The Seniors Blue Book Aging Well Radio Show will be streamed on WENG Radio stations 98.1 FM, 107.5 FM, and 1530 AM. We will also be taking our efforts to the “big screen” and starting a television show on SNN called, The Aging Well News Network by Seniors Blue Book, where we will share useful information for professional caregivers, families, and the seniors they serve to better advocate for themselves and their clients and loved ones. Thank you again for your continued support of the Seniors Blue Book, as our mission and purpose are truly a passion of ours! Samantha Hersch, Publisher

SENIOR HOUSING

First you should familiarize yourself with the many options available and determine which one is best for your needs. You will find definitions of each type of housing at the beginning of the housing section. Then turn to our easy to read comparison grids. The grids are divided into 3 categories, depending on the type of community: Independent Living and Retirement, Assisted Living, and Skilled Nursing. The buildings are listed by city or county so you can zero in on the specific areas you are looking for.

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

Everything you need to know when choosing care for you or your loved one! We completely understand how difficult it is to navigate the complex world of senior care. How do you know where to start? Do we hire an elder law attorney first? Should we meet with our local VA representative? What’s the difference between Medicare and Medicaid? Should we look into assisted living or home care? How do you choose the first step? How do you know if it’s the right step? How do you know what to do next? Most people caring for their aging

parents, spouse or a loved one face these questions at some point during their journey. This process can be extremely overwhelming, however, there is hope. We are on a mission to eliminate the confusion and frustration by giving people an easy to follow guide to help them understand what they need and who to talk to in 5 simple steps. To get a free copy of Florida’s 5-Step Guide to Senior Care, call (941) 677-7233.

Most of us understand what a “will” or “last will and testament” is: a document that specifies who your assets go to when you die and who you appoint to administer your estate. Some of us are familiar with a “living will” which is a document that declares your choices for end of life care and treatment. However there is another will, one not often recognized, referred to as an Ethical Will. An Ethical Will is a non-legal (but not illegal) document that is intended to help you convey to your family and friends, perhaps for many generations to come, your personal philosophy, morals, values, beliefs, memories and advice. It is important to note that an Ethical Will is not intended to replace the traditional “last will and testament” which deals with your “valuables,” but a means of conveying your “values”: the lifetime of knowledge you’ve gained and experiences you’ve had. It is a vehicle to pass on your values, life lessons, hopes, dreams, beliefs, love and forgiveness. There is no specific format for an Ethical Will. The format is not what is important. An Ethical Will can be as simple as a letter or as complex as a diary spanning a lifetime. What is important is the message. Regardless of the quality or complexity of your Ethical Will, the simple act of writing it is an expression of your love and concern for your family and friends.

Historically, the Ethical Will was appealing for many because those persons had little or no property to dispose of, and the Ethical Will served as their only means to leave something behind. This was especially true for women. Perhaps the most compelling reason for why you should write an Ethical Will is that if you don’t tell your story, who will? The Ethical Will is also an effective tool to help you come to grips with your own mortality. It provides you with the sense that a part of who you are can continue to live on well past your lifetime. It will help you feel a sense of completion and peace of mind knowing that no matter what should happen to you tomorrow, your loved ones will have an expression of your love to get them through their toughest times. An Ethical Will allows you to reflect on and re-frame your own life experiences. It allows you to fill the gaps of knowledge of its recipients by providing historic or familial information, it allows you to convey feelings, thoughts and “truths” that may be hard to say face-to-face, and it allows you to express regrets and apologies which may open the door for you to forgive and be forgiven. In our next article we will be describing ways of creating an Ethical Will. In the meantime, stay tuned for our upcoming workshops on designing an Ethical Will.

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

We may not like to think about it, but tough things happen to real people. We don’t think it will happen to us, and if we don’t have a plan, an already bad situation can have detrimental effects on our families, emotionally and financially. According to the WHO a new case of dementia is diagnosed every 3 seconds (https:// www.who.int/ features/factfiles/dementia/en/). In America, it’s estimated that one in six women and one in ten men, living past the age of 55 will develop dementia. (https:// braintest.com/ dementia-stats-u-s-worldwide/). We don’t plan to fail; we fail to plan.

Dr. Jack Wazen, Director of Research for Ear Research Foundation and Otolaryngologist with Silverstein Institute weighs in on this highly-publicized correlation between hearing loss and cognitive decline. Dr. Wazen believes that many facets affect brain health. One of those is being able to hear well. As we age and our brain function begins to decline. We need to use all the available methods to preserve our brain and bodily health. These methods include a healthy diet, exercise, socializing, brain stimulation and good hearing. When there is auditory deprivation, there is significant strain on the brain’s temporal lobe called the primary auditory cortex. Individuals

often experience cognitive decline due to less social interaction and mental processing. Ear Research Foundation suggests you see a qualifed otologist or audiologist for any signs of hearing loss. They are trained to find the best resolution for your specific issue. What if I already have Hearing Loss? This does not mean that you ultimately have brain dysfunction; however, treating your hearing deficit is essential to lessen the chances or progression of cognitive decline. Especially if you have a family history or are at high risk for Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.

We specialize in regenerative medicine using mesenchymal stem cells to repair, regenerate and replace damaged joints and tissue. If you injected them in the knee, they help repair the cartilage. If you put them in the shoulder, they repair the tendons and ligaments. If they’re injected into the back or neck, they help to repair the disks. This therapy is a great alternative to avoid knee or hip replacements, as well as shoulder back or neck surgeries. Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, Renewed Life Stem Cell Clinic emphasizes improving your health to reduce the risk of pain and illness before any occur-

rence. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they can. This is one of the main reasons for the big surge in the popularity of our wellness center. People are recognizing the benefit of seeking an alternative to traditional medicine; one that will help them achieve and maintain optimal health.

VEIN DISEASE: Our circulatory system keeps our body and its tissues healthy, but when that system goes awry, we develop a series of diseases, including vein disease and all its symptoms. Based on the latest scientific data, vein disease in the US is underdiagnosed and undertreated, and it affects more than 40 million Americans. Unfortunately, less than one-half of one percent of Americans seek treatment and fewer than 500K ever receive treatment for vein disease.

At Allure Medical, we believe in curing the disease, not just managing its symptoms.

What Causes Chronic Vein Insufficiency? The short answer is -- malfunctioning valves inside the veins. When blood circulates inside the body, the heart pumps blood down the leg. To get the blood back to the heart, however, the body relies on a combination of valves and muscle contractions to push the blood upward. Healthy valves within the veins act as a backflow prevention device in the legs to keep blood from dropping back down the vein. Faulty valves don’t completely close, resulting in blood back-flowing and pooling in the leg veins where varicose veins develop along with swelling, heaviness, itching, and a whole host of other life-changing symptoms.

What is the Treatment? Luckily, treatment is in your favor.

Nursing Styles is a private home health agency offering a variety of services to assist you and/or your loved one in your home, private residence, ALF, or skilled nursing facility. We can even provide care during a hospital stay. Nursing Styles family consists of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nurse assistants, home health aides, companions, and sitters. Our employees have training in Alzheimer’s care, are required to pass a level 2 background screen and drug screen. All caregivers are CPR certified and supervised by registered nurses. Our privately owned and operated

agency will begin by sending one of our highly-qualified registered nurses for a free assessment that will help us identify your individual needs and how Nursing Styles can best meet those needs. A registered nurse will be assigned to oversee and evaluate your needs regularly. Additionally, an on-call nurse is available twenty-four hours a day to address any emergency situations. Schedule a meeting with us to help us choose the ideal caregivers for you and/or your loved one.

INDEPENDENT / RETIREMENT TABLE COMMUNITIES OF CONTENTS

INDEPENDENT LIVING DEFINITIONS

INDEPENDENT LIVING DEFINITIONS ACTIVE ADULT RETIREMENT COMMUNITY: Active adult communities offer independent, relatively maintenance-free living to residents aged 55 and over. In “age restricted” active adult communities, 80% of homeowners must be 55 and over, while “agetargeted” communities simply market to the 55+ crowd. INDEPENDENT LIVING (IL): Communities designed specifically for the aging adult to enhance quality of life and remain independent as long as possible. A community may offer annual rentals or month-to-month. Independent Communities provide residents with convenient access to dining and meal plans, entertainment and social activities, transportation, housekeeping and laundry, maintenance, wellness clinics, and access to third party medical services. Apartment styles vary and can include studios, one bedrooms, or two bedrooms. Communities offer amenities such as full kitchens, on-site pool, fitness center, walking paths, and more. These communities are NOT licensed to provide personal/ nursing care.

being completely independent and not necessarily needing all of the care assisted living residents may need. Traditional independent options plus the option of adding ala carte personal care services as needed. CCRC/LIFECARE: Continuing Care Retirement Community otherwise known as Life Care, offers a campusstyle environment that may include villas, apartments or condos, assisted living and skilled nursing services. A large endowment fee is usually required that entitles residents to use assisted or skilled services when needed throughout their lifetime. Residents “purchase” their villa or condo and then pay monthly maintenance fees. Payor sources accepted are private pay in villas/apartments/condos and some insurance plans in AL. See SNF for payor sources.

SUPERVISED INDEPENDENT LIVING: If you or your loved one may not need all the benefits of assisted living, then supervised independent living may be the right option for you. It’s the perfect bridge between 170 CHARLOTTE, MANATEE & SARASOTA COUNTIES – WINTER/SPRING 2020

ASSISTED TABLE LIVINGOF DEFINITIONS CONTENTS

ASSISTED LIVING DEFINITIONS

ASSISTED LIVING DEFINITIONS WHAT ARE ASSISTED LIVING COMMUNITIES? Assisted living communities provide full-time living arrangements in the least restrictive and most homelike setting. Communities can include individual apartments or rooms that a resident has alone or shares with another person. These communities can also range in size from one resident to several hundred residents. The basic services include, but are not limited to: • Housing, nutritional meals, and special diets • Personal care (help with bathing, dressing, eating, walking, physical transfer) • Give medications (by a nurse employed at the community or arranged by contract) or help residents self-administer medications • Supervise residents • Arrange for health care services • Provide or arrange for transportation to health care services • Health monitoring • Respite care • Social and leisure activities • Mental Health services TYPES OF ASSISTED LIVING COMMUNITY LICENSES There are three types of assisted

living licenses. A community must have a standard assisted living community license in order to operate in the state of Florida. The other three licenses can be added in order for the community to provide services designated outside the spectrum of a standard assisted living community license. STANDARD LICENSE: A residential community that provides direct physical assistance with or the supervision of activities of daily living, assistance with medication(s) and other similar services. LIMITED NURSING SERVICES (LNS) LICENSE: An assisted living community with a LNS license provides the basic services of an assisted living community as well as nursing services provided by licensed nurses within the scope of their nursing practice. The resident would still need to meet admission and continued residency criteria. EXTENDED CONGREGATE CARE (ECC) LICENSE: An ECC community can provide all the same services as an LNS community and the following: • Limited nursing services and assessments • Total help with bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting • Measurement and recording of vital signs and weight

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

SeniorsBlueBook.com

PRIVATE/SELF-PAY: Self-pay residents use their own resources to pay for nursing care. This is sometimes referred to as private pay. Even if another payer covers your nursing home bill, you might have to pay for a portion of the bill. This is referred to as a co-payment. You might have to pay for the nursing home during a short absence from the nursing home. This is referred to as a bed hold. Make sure you understand how much of the nursing home bill that you are responsible for paying with your own money. INSURANCE, HMOS, AND OTHER PAYERS: Some long-term care insurance, commercial insurance, commercial Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), Veteran’s Administration, Workers’ Compensation, and other programs cover nursing home stays. Plans vary widely.

TABLE OF CONTENTS ASSISTED LIVING DEFINITIONS

• Dietary management, including special diets, monitoring nutrition, SHORT TERM/RESPITE CARE: food, and fluid intake Circumstances require a caregiver • Supervise residents with dementia to seek temporary senior housing for your loved one. Knowing they can and/or cognitive impairments move seamlessly into an emergency • Provide or arrange for care environment that supports the rehabilitative services wellness needs of seniors allows • Provide escort services to medical peace of mind when you are called appointments away for business or vacation, or • Educational programs to promote if you just need a short break from health and prevent illness caregiving. ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING (ADLs): Define the personal care services available in assisted living and include bathing, dressing, grooming, bathroom assistance, eating and ambulation. Medication Administration and transferring are not ADLs but are factors in determining a person’s level of functioning. ADULT DAY STAY PROGRAMS: There are two general types of adult day care programs. One is based on a medical model and the other on a social model. The medical model provides comprehensive medical, therapeutic, and rehabilitation day treatment. The social model offers supervised activities, peer support, companionship, and recreation.

Cadbury Park – A Better Way to Care Cadbury Park at Jacaranda Trace offers secure assisted living and memory care in a neighborhood setting designed to enhance the Physical, Intellectual, Spiritual, and Social aspects of Residents’ lives. The key to this nurturing lifestyle is a just-like-home atmosphere that provides many opportunities for positive engagement – with both caregivers and other residents. This approach maximizes the potential for each Resident by helping them to develop supportive relationships while enjoying a life of quality, meaning, and purpose. Cadbury Park’s Assisted Living Center is located in our Clubhouse Commons Building and features bright private rooms and spacious living and dining areas. In this lively setting, Assisted Living residents can enjoy a higher degree of independence just steps away from community activities and services, including on-site medical care. Caring staff are always nearby to lend a hand with the activities of daily living, housekeeping, and laundry. Family visitors are always welcome, and transportation is available for outside appointments and other needs. Cadbury Park’s Secure Assisted Living and Memory Care Neighborhood is for those in need of a higher level of support, including cognitive care, and features two 18room family-style homes connected by a secure outdoor walking area

and landscaped veranda. Meals are prepared in an open kitchen with a spacious living and dining area for residents to experience all the sights, sounds, and smells of home. In this setting, residents enjoy the best of all worlds – the familiarity and comfort of home, the security of a well-designed environment, and the support of a more personal, relational level of care. At Jacaranda Trace, our goal as caregivers is to meet our resident’s needs as they are, so we offer a range of assisted living environments and levels of care. Whether you choose the freedom and activity of our Assisted Living center, or the peace of mind of our Secure Neighborhood. We think you’ll agree that Cadbury Park is a better way to care and a better way to live. Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by CadburyPark.

AT SARASOTA BAY:

OUR RESIDENTS SAY IT BEST! Meet Wonnor and John, Resident Ambassadors from Discovery Village At Sarasota Bay. Both became Ambassadors in December 2018, and love meeting new residents and helping them get acquainted. Wonnor moved to Discovery Village after working in medical research at NYU and also volunteering as a church parish worker. Her unique name is a form of Cantonese, and means “grace,” a fitting title for someone who truly embodies the essence of the word. John is a Vietnam veteran who worked 50 years as an Electrical Technician for Con Edison Company in New York City before migrating south for retirement. They both make sure to embrace each day by enjoying all of the amenities and activities available in the community, particularly the field trips to the park and beautiful, nearby beaches. They also appreciate the very friendly team members. “Everyone is very nice and easy to talk to. All of our meals are taken care of, and our favorites are the fish and shrimp. I really love the variety of activities offered here. My favorite is the morning exercise in Lucky’s Card & Game Room, but we both enjoy Wii Bowling, too” says Wonnor.

Compassionate Senior Living is Lily’s Promise

After many years of specialization in Alzheimer’s, we have found that the symptoms of the disease often result in a reversion back to childhood, both emotionally and physically.

The world becomes frustrating as basic things like brushing your teeth becomes daunting. Now think back at how the world was as a child. How reassuring it was to be with a small number of your peers in a calm, stable and familiar setting with warm and recognizable individuals providing catered care for you. This is what Lily’s Promise is all about. Everything we do is geared to address the above scenario: 1) a residential

home provides a homelike setting, 2) a nurse in each house provides the six residents constant medical attention 3) a 2 to 1 caregiver ratio (during busiest hours of the day) will address the most attention seeking individual, 4) homecooked meals and personalized activities will satisfy the soul and warm the heart. All this in a safe and professionally managed setting.

Lily’s Promise is indeed the closest thing to home. Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Patrick Bismuth, founder, Lily’s Promise who can be reached at patrick@lilyspromise.com. Visit us online at www.lilyspromise.com.

SaraBella Senior Living Coming in 2020 to Sarasota, Florida SaraBella Senior Living is a new Senior Living community currently under construction located at 5650 Gantt Rd., Sarasota. Scheduled to open in the Summer of 2020, SaraBella will offer the highest levels in “resort-style” of life, leading-edge technology, outstanding amenities & programs, state-of-theart care, and unparalleled services. “SaraBella is a place where residents can enjoy life, and their friends and families can have peace of mind knowing that their loved one is being cared for with dignity and respect,” says Kim Champagne, SaraBella’s Executive Director. “Choice and flexibility are hallmarks of the SaraBella touch.” The SaraBella will offer seniors both Assisted Living and Memory Care services. Assisted Living apartments will be available for rent, where each resident will enjoy the benefits afforded by us having 24-hour trained care staff and full-time licensed nurses. Whether residents need minimal assistance, or a more thorough and comprehensive care plan, SaraBella staff assists residents each day with personal activities of daily living. Medical assessments are done prior to admittance into the community and routinely thereafter to ensure the expert staff are providing the top-notch care residents will come to expect. All care plans are determined with input by the resident or their representative, the SaraBella staff, and the resident’s primary care physician;

in concert, SaraBella will be able to provide the care necessary to achieve optimal success while maintaining dignity and respect. SaraBella will feature a separated Memory Care portion within the community, for residents that need extra care due to Alzheimer’s related dementia. All of the residents in this portion of the community will be provided customized service plans provided by SaraBella trained care staff, available 24 hours a day with licensed nurse oversight. The service provided will be available in a tranquil and compassionate environment, catered towards those with higher needs related to memory loss. “Our focus here is on achieving the highest practical quality of life, while treating the residents in a manner that allows them to function as independently as possible, while receiving the personalized assistance and care they need,” Ms. Champagne says. Families will be able to choose from both private and shared accommodations. For those loved ones and family members who need assistance with short-term respite stay accommodations, SaraBella will provide that as well, with a fully furnished unit that includes all utilities, meals, and care services.

SKILLED NURSING TABLE OF DEFINITIONS CONTENTS

SKILLED NURSING DEFINITIONS

SKILLED NURSING DEFINITIONS SKILLED NURSING COMMUNITY (SNF): This level of care is typically found in a nursing center or a transitional care unit in a hospital. Skilled Nursing commonly offers two types of care within the community, short-term rehabilitation and longterm care. Short-term rehabilitation is typically paid for by Medicare or Insurance Plans and includes but is not limited to therapies and nursing care. Physical, occupational, speech and respiratory therapies are commonly offered within a SNF. Health monitoring, 24 hour personal care (activities of daily living), trach care and more are provided within a SNF. Rooms are typically furnished and depending on the community may offer both private and shared accomodations. Other services include meals, activities, transportation, phone service, cable television and all personal care. Depending on the facility, payor sources accepted are Medicare, Medicaid, VA, insurance plans & private sources. PHYSICAL THERAPY (PT): Refers to assessing and treating large motor function, utilizing rehabilitative techniques of exercise, gait training, prosthetics, and heat to restore the client to his/ her highest functional level of strength, range of motion and mobility. SPEECH THERAPY (ST): Assesses and treats speech and swallowing disorders. Provides individually designed treatment programs to maximize

communicative effectiveness for the client, such as stroke, head injury, laryngectomy, voice disorders, as well as cognitive deficits. OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY (OT): Assesses and treats small motor function. Utilizes rehabilitative techniques of exercise, splinting and assistive devices to increase the client’s ability to carry out normal daily activity such as feeding, dressing, grooming, and performing household tasks. Guides client through specialized regimes and encourages sensory and muscle return. Exercises and activities are used to increase upper body extremity function. TRACH CARE: Refers to care administered to patients who have undergone a tracheotomy. A tracheotomy is a surgical procedure in which a cut or opening is made in the windpipe (trachea). The surgeon inserts a tube into the opening to bypass an obstruction, allow air to get to the lungs, or remove secretions. LONG TERM CARE: Skilled nursing communities can offer care to people who cannot be cared for at home or in the community. They provide 24 hour care, nursing and rehabilitation services, meals, activities, help with daily living and supervision. Many communities also offer temporary or periodic care called Respite Care. METHODS OF PAYMENT: Not all nursing homes accept all forms of payments. Furthermore, some nursing

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

INSURANCE, HMOS, AND OTHER PAYERS: Some long-term care insurance, commercial insurance, commercial Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), Veteran’s Administration, Workers’ Compensation, and other programs cover nursing home stays. Plans vary widely. SOCIAL WORKER: A clinical social worker whose purpose in health care is to enhance, promote, maintain, and restore the best possible social abilities of the patient or family. Services provided may be preventative, developmental, or remedial in nature. MEDICARE: Medicare is a Federal program that serves people 65 and older and those with certain disabilities, regardless of income. Qualified individuals are automatically enrolled in Medicare Part A, but must apply to become eligible for Part B coverage. Medicare generally pays for the first twenty days in a nursing home following a hospital stay of at least

three days. Medicare generally pays a portion of the nursing home bill (after the first 20 days) for up to 100 days per year. MEDICAID: Medicaid is a state-administered medical assistance program that serves low-income families, those 65 and older, people who are blind, and people who are disabled. You must apply and qualify for Medicaid before you are eligible for Medicaid coverage. Schedule an appointment with your local Department of Children and Family Services’ Medicaid Eligibility office to determine if you are financially eligible for Medicaid. Applicants must demonstrate that assets and income are below a maximum level, as well as other criteria in order to be eligible. Medicaid applicants must also meet medical eligibility for nursing home placement.
