BRAIN INJURY IN OLDER ADULTS 2

Brain Injury in Older Adults In Massachusetts, approximately 16,000 people over the age of 60 sustain a traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year. The leading cause of these injuries are falls, followed by motor vehicle accidents. Oftentimes, TBI’s are not identified in older adults because other factors may contribute to changes in physical, cognitive, and emotional functioning. For example, some of the symptoms of a brain injury may be confused with normal aging or another condition. Pre-existing major neurocognitive disorder (previously referred to as dementia) increase the risk for sustaining an injury and may complicate the recovery process. Factors such as polypharmacy, problems with physical health, and decreased tolerance for drugs and alcohol affect the way an older adult rehabilitates after an injury as well. Because there are other reasons why an older adult may be experiencing a change in cognition, it is important to identify whether a head injury has occurred. In Massachusetts, there are support groups for brain injury survivors and family members as well as specific, State-funded services through the Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission that may promote a better outcome for an older adult who has sustained an injury. Paying attention to the onset of symptoms and conseGREATER BOSTON – SUMMER 2018 - WINTER 2019

quences after an older adult has had a fall, car accident, or other situation that may have resulted in injury will help to identify a possible TBI. Symptoms include difficulty with memory, processing, and other cognitive functions, headache, sensitivity to light and sound, irritability, and many more. An important distinction is that today we know that there does not have to be a loss of consciousness for an injury to occur and we know that even sub-concussive events, in accumulation, can have a negative effect on brain function. After identifying a possible injury, speak to a primary care physician, neurologist, or other medical professional who can properly diagnose a traumatic brain injury. Because neurological imaging such as CAT scan, MRI, or EEG do not always detect mild injuries (concussions), one of the best ways to identify a brain injury is through neuropsychological assessment. Be your own medical advocate and ask to meet with a neurologist and a neuropsychologist if you believe you or a loved one may have experienced an injury. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Liz Harnois of the Brain Injury Association of Massachusetts (BIA-MA) and may be reached at lharnois@biama. org or 508-475-0032. As a private, nonprofit agency, BIA-MA provides resources and support to those affected by brain injury.

Trouble remembering names? Here’s how to remember them better. First, pay attention when someone is telling you their name. Don’t focus on the delicious-looking hors d’oeuvres, how nice her necklace looks, or what you’re going to say next. You can improve your ability to pay attention using techniques such as mindfulness. Next, repeat the name back to the person aloud. When they say, “Hi, I’m Victoria,” you say, “It’s nice to meet you, Victoria.” That simple act of processing the name and saying it aloud will help you to remember it. Make an association between the person’s name and something that is meaningful to you, whether it is something public (Queen Victoria) or personal (my sister’s name is Victoria). Form a mental image between your association and the person. Imagine the Victoria in front of you wearing a crown, holding a scepter, and dressed like a queen. Or imagine your sister giving the Victoria you’ve just met a kiss on the cheek. Do these images seem silly? That’s good!

The sillier the image the more likely you’ll remember it. Find something in the person’s appearance that will help you to remember their name. For names beginning with “V” like Victoria, look for a V-shaped necklace or V-neck sweater and picture it as the first letter of their name. A pair of glasses held on their side looks like a “B.” The lower lip and chin can form a “D.” An ear can look like a “G.” Patterns on clothing can also form letters or give you other associations with names. Lastly, say the name again, either in the conversation or to yourself, sometime in the next minute or so, then again 5 minutes later, and when you part company. Say it as you’re driving home and again the next morning. Say it a week later, a month later, and six months later and you’ll remember that name for a very long time. ~

WHY HIRE A GERIATRIC CARE MANAGER?

Why Hire a Geriatric Care When it comes to aging parents, Manager? making decisions about what to do, how and when, isn’t easy. We’re used to our parents making their own decisions. It’s hard to intervene when you aren’t sure whether it’s really necessary. Families often disagree about what should be done. Consider these typical scenarios: You visit your mother in the morning and she is standing at the stove cooking a steak, a stack of unpaid bills on the kitchen table and prescription bottles mixed together in a bag along with a few unlabeled bottles containing an assortment of different colored pills. She assures you that she knows exactly what and when to take, but it doesn’t seem likely. n A fter the last fall, your father spent three days in the hospital and you are informed that he wasn’t really admitted, that he was under observation and that if he goes to rehab he will have to pay out of pocket. Didn’t he go to rehab last time he fell? n

Handling these issues is difficult and emotionally charged. A geriatric care manager is a certified professional, often social workers or nurses, who understands older adults, healthcare and the complex web of resources, public and private that support elders’ health and wellbeing. Care managers offer advice and sup4

port when it’s time to make important decisions about short- and long-term care, whether at home or in a facility. What you need to know: A private care manager works for you. They work on a straight consulting agreement, typically by the hour. n T hey can anticipate problems and they know how to overcome them. n T hey are especially helpful when adult children lead busy lives, caring for their own children, work or live far away. n I nvesting a few dollars upfront can save families thousands of dollars of mistaken choices or lack of awareness of special programs that exist to support older adults aging in place in their own home. n T hey can match you with service providers that meet an older adult’s needs. n

Still on the fence about hiring an elder care expert? Most families hire specialists to help with tax prep, college admissions and career moves. Hiring a professional to help with an aging parent is just as worthwhile. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Malka Young, LICSW,CCM.

Now more than ever, geriatric psychiatry services have become a healthcare necessity for the wellbeing of older adults in our communities. Neurodegenerative dementias are a particular concern for this population. Dementia is a global term describing the decline in a person’s cognition and functioning over time. There are many different types of dementia, the most common of which is Alzheimer’s Disease affecting 5.7 million Americans today with numbers expected to triple over the next 30 years. Alzheimer’s Dementia is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. More than 15 million family members and friends are caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s. Although age is the most common risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s (and along with genetics we have no ability to change), many risk factors are indeed modifiable and efforts to control them could reduce one’s risk of developing dementia with advancing age. Obesity, a sedentary lifestyle, cognitive inactivity and smoking are all considered modifiable risk factors for Alzheimer’s. Furthermore, a number of medical conditions including

high blood pressure, diabetes, alcohol/substance abuse, depression and high cholesterol can also play a role. If you have one of these modifiable risk factor conditions, it

does not mean that you will go on to develop Alzheimer’s, but talking to your doctor about how best to stay healthy could help reduce your risk. The Division of Geriatric Psychiatry at McLean seeks to treat patients who experience a wide variety of memory problems, including Alzheimer’s. We commonly evaluate individuals over the age of 65 years with subjective memory complaints who may also be experiencing increased anxiety or nervousness. Many of our patients have a history of depression or another psychiatric illness.

for adult day health services is expected to grow by 70%. Adult day health (ADH) programs empower people to age-in-place and provide critical support for family caregivers. The need for ADH programs is rapidly growing due to numerous reasons: our senior population will increase by 80% over the next 20 years; incidence of Alzheimer’s disease is projected to increase by 25% over the upcoming decade; and ADH programs are the most effective and affordable long-term senior care option in Massachusetts. Research has demonstrated the success of ADH programs in meeting the specific needs of seniors and adults with medical or cognitive challenges (nearly 62% of Massachusetts seniors – which is 550,000 people – live with four or more chronic medical conditions): n S eniors using ADH programs spend on average $10,000 less each year on community-based long-term care costs as compared to seniors with similar needs using other forms of care. n F ollowing discharge from acute inpatient hospital stays, seniors participating in ADH programs have a 6% chance of readmis-

sion and emergency room visit, while non-ADH seniors have a 22% chance. n S eniors suffering from social isolation are more susceptible to illness and have higher mortality rates than their peers who benefit from regular social interaction. Furthermore, ADH programs save the Commonwealth of Massachusetts $56,540 per person each year compared to the cost of nursing home care (a day of nursing home care costs five times more than a day of ADH programming). ADH programs support the physical, mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing of families living with medical or cognitive challenges. In the words of the caregiver of an ADH participant, “My mother has found a place where she feels part of a community. It has changed her life – and mine.” To learn more about the nonprofit, independent ADH programs operated by Cooperative Elder Services, Inc. in Arlington, Burlington, Concord, or Groton, please visit www.ElderDayServices.org. For a statewide directory of ADH programs, visit the website for the Massachusetts Adult Day Services Association at www. MADSA.net.

the Baby Boomers, especially related to financial exploitation, identify theft and scams.

It is estimated that American elders lose close to 2.6 billion dollars annually due to exploitation and scams. *A study conducted by Wells Fargo found that 1 in 5 people, over the age of 65, are victims of financial exploitation or scams with an estimated average loss of approximately $120,000. **The study also indicated that half of the people surveyed – knew someone this had happened to, but did not feel they were at risk. This study reveals exactly what the Protective Services staff at Elder Services of the Merrimack Valley is witnessing. People over the age of 60 are being victimized by scams via mail, telephone, or internet – and they are sending hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars to people they do not know. The victim is typically led to believe that he/she will win a very large sum of money. These scams often start with the caller – aka, the perpetrator – requesting a small amount of money, anywhere from $1 to $10, and then steadily increasing the number of requests and the amount. Elders have lost homes and lost property because of the inability to pay property taxes after the financial loss. And, with sophisticated

technology, it is easy to use personal information to scam anyone. When a person calls your home knowing the name of your grandchild, in that moment you believe what you are hearing and have found these scammers to be knowledgeable, believable and convincing. Elder Services of the Merrimack Valley along with the Middlesex and Essex District Attorney’s Offices work together to identify victims of financial exploitation and scams. We work with individuals to provide the DA’s office with as much information about each scam and try to secure the victim’s funds. This can happen to anyone. However, there is still much stigma and embarrassment, so getting victims of this abuse to step forward, speak out and understand they are not alone can be a challenge. If you or someone you know may have been a victim of abuse or exploitation please call 800-922-2275 to file a report. ~

What Are They Thinking? As an Elder Law attorney, knowing that our population continues to age and that the cost of nursing home care continues to increase, nothing irks me more than to have the state come up with short-sighted policy changes to “save money” when the overall cost is high in both dollars later and important benefits for aged disabled persons now. For more than 20 years, disabled individuals of any age have been permitted to fund so-called “pooled” trusts without interfering with their Medicaid (called MassHealth in Massachusetts) eligibility to have the state pay for long-term care. These trusts are state-mandated trusts that pool funds of disabled persons for investment and distribution in a way that will not render them ineligible for public benefits like Medicaid. MassHealth recently proposed regulations that will penalize any disabled individuals 65 and over who fund a pooled trust. To qualify for MassHealth an individual 65 and over must have assets below $2,000. A pooled trust provides a source of funds to pay for items and services not covered by MassHealth, which are necessary for disabled seniors to live independently in the community, or obtain services not otherwise available from MassHealth while they are in long-term care. Seniors can use funds from a pooled trust for home

36 GREATER BOSTON – SUMMER 2018 - WINTER 2019

care services, uncovered medical, dental and pharmacy costs, and other necessities. On the death of the disabled beneficiary, trust assets are paid to the Commonwealth to reimburse the State for MassHealth benefits paid (with a small amount paid to the non-profit administering the pooled trust.) Without pooled trusts, more seniors will be at risk of nursing home placement at greater expense to the Commonwealth, and more seniors currently in nursing homes will not get all the services they may need. In my practice I have had several clients that established pooled trusts for their future expenses, and obtained MassHealth eligibility to pay for their care while either at home or in a nursing facility. In every case so far any funds not used for the elder were returned to MassHealth at death. If you or a love one may need care soon, consider funding a pooled trust before it’s too late. And, if you have any questions or need help funding a pooled trust for a disabled person either under or over the age of 65, please do not hesitate to contact my office. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Timothy R.

The telephone is likely viewed as the quickest and easiest way to keep in touch. If you have difficulty hearing on the phone, it can become so frustrating that you stop using the phone altogether, but there are solutions available that can have an immediate impact on your life. With Hamilton CapTel® you can experience clarity and confidence on every call with Captioned Telephone (CapTel), a no-cost* service that allows users to listen while reading word-for-word captions of what’s said to them over the phone.

When the person you are calling answers, everything that he or she says is displayed on the bright, display screen of the CapTel phone. CapTel service is also available on the go – you can use Hamilton Cap-

own needs financially to support elderly family members.

Sixty-seven percent of caregivers have reduced their living expenses to take care of a family member, up 16 percent from last year, says a study from life insurance company Northwestern Mutual. Most Americans (57 percent) are aware of what it will cost to provide care to a loved one. However, 48 percent admit they haven’t planned how they will pay for it. “In an environment of rising costs and fluctuating economic and healthcare realities, winging it isn’t an option,” says Northwestern Mutual vice president of long-term care Kamilah Williams-Kemp. “Being proactive before a long-term event happens can help ensure that you can still take care of your own needs while caring for someone else’s well-being.” A Caregiver’s Expenses The number of Americans who don’t plan to take care of an elderly family member financially has increased by 13 percent since last year. While caregiver costs increase every year, according to the study. A full 68 percent of those who have not prepared financially still support their elderly family member. The average costs for medicine and medical supplies are $273 a month,

while food costs them an additional $159, monthly. Thirty-four percent of Americans use between 21 percent and 100 percent of their monthly budget to take care of a family member. Despite witnessing a family member who needs long-term care, most still don’t save for their own long-term care needs. More Americans expect they will need long-term care, than outliving their retirement savings, or losing a job, according to the same study. More than half (56 percent) of Americans say it’s a higher financial priority than paying down debt (55 percent), or saving for a home (30 percent). Still, 73 percent don’t plan for it, even though they see its increasing importance. It’s tough for Americans to plan how to take care of themselves in old age. Especially when most of us don’t talk about it. “Long-term care planning is increasing in importance by the day with more and more people approaching or in retirement, and living longer,” Nash says. “Being proactive before care is needed can make a lasting impact on the quality of care you receive, the ability to maintain dignity, and on your family’s financial security.”~

Stairs a Problem? Consider Are you, or someone you know, These Questions. having difficulty getting up and down stairs? A stairlift could be the solution, but it’s important to ask the right questions!

For many seniors, continuing to enjoy life in the place they’ve come to call “home” is a high priority. However, if stairs are a problem, the prospect of aging in place can quickly become a daunting challenge. If you find that you’re planning your day around the stairs, coming down in the morning and avoiding going back up until it’s time for bed, you’re probably already thinking about making a change. While some might suggest moving your bedroom to the first floor or installing a residential elevator, it can be difficult to cram everything into a half-sized living space and the costs associated with installing an elevator are often prohibitive for the average family. In many cases, a stairlift is the most practical solution for getting up and down stairs, allowing you to enjoy the full use of your home. While this is a great option, it is important to ask the right questions. How long do you plan to stay in your home? We’d all like to live in our homes forever, but it’s important to think ahead. Deciding how long you plan to stay in your home is an important first step in the stairlift process.

Some companies offer short-term rental plans and buybacks that allow you to install a stairlift for just a short time. 18 months is a good number to keep in mind; if you plan to stay longer than that, you’re probably better off buying the stairlift outright. What mobility restrictions does the user have? For some, the difficulty begins and ends with climbing the stairs. But, mobility can change over time. It’s important to consider additional features that could become necessary down the road. Features, like a powered swivel or an easy-to-use seatbelt, could later become critical in ensuring a safe trip upstairs.

What is the company’s reputation? When dealing with a stairlift company, it is important to make sure that they are honest and reputable. How long has the company been in business? Do they have any recalls on their products? What do their customers say about them? Knowing who you’re working with is half the battle!

with advances in treatment and the right support there is much an individual with Parkinson’s disease can do to live every day to the fullest.

The American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) is the country’s largest grassroots organization serving those touched by Parkinson’s disease. What makes APDA unique is that we are in cities, towns, and communities across the U.S. Throughout our nationwide network of Chapters and Information & Referral Centers, Centers for Advanced Research, Specialized programs in Young Onset, Veterans and Rehabilitation Resources, and countless support groups, we are able to quickly reach people and connect them to resources that will provide the best outcomes as they navigate Parkinson’s disease. Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological movement disorder. Over one million people live with Parkinson’s and there are 60,000 new cases each year in the U.S. alone. It can begin with a tremor, difficulty writing, stooped posture, stiff muscles, or slightly slurred speech; symptoms are different for every person. APDA’s mission is to provide information, education, and support to all impacted by the disease and to fund scientific research into the causes, prevention, treatments and ultimately the cure. We take pride in the fact that we are in

your community and many others across the country serving people with Parkinson’s disease to provide support from the day of diagnosis throughout the Parkinson journey. We have also been a funding partner in most major Parkinson’s disease discoveries and we will continue to fund research initiatives that can stop the devastation of living with this disabling disease. APDA is here to help with: Health and wellness initiatives delivering programs to help people maintain independence and optimism starting at diagnosis n Education and support programs connecting people with Parkinson’s in local communities n Expedited and innovative research to develop promising clinical approaches and better outcomes and funding the next generation of scientists dedicated to finding new treatments and a cure.

Veterans may access them through their VA Primary Care team who will help determine their eligibility for these services. Many services listed in this article are intended to support Veterans living at home. Older Veterans may be eligible for attendance at a VA community contracted “Adult Day Health Program” for which the VA will fund at least 2 days a week and sometimes up to 5 days. The VA “In Home Respite Care” program enables a caregiver to attend to personal needs while a contracted agency provides a personal care attendant to stay with the Veteran for up to 6 hours at a time for 30 times each year. Similarly, the “Inpatient Respite Program” allows the Veteran to check into the Brockton Community Living Center for up to 2 weeks twice a year so the caregiver can have an extended break. In the Home Based Primary Care program, the VA team comes to visit the Veteran at home. In some cases, a VA social worker visits the home and assists Veterans in connecting to community and VA resources including VA homemaker support services. To help a Veteran succeed at home, the VA offers detailed neurological

assessments if there are concerns about memory issues as well as an in-home safety assessment. The VA also offers a road assessment to assist veterans in strengthening their driving skills or determine an alterna-

Hospice Care Definitions continued from page 112 are covered by hospice during this period. CC-Continuous Care – Provided to prevent the individual from going to the hospital when a crisis occurs. Continuous care also is given when more help is needed to assist the individual and family in coping with the crisis. This level of care is usually provided at the individual’s residence no matter where that may be. The criteria for continuous care may include: Severe pain or symptoms which are out of control, psychotic episodes, breakdown of caregiver, imminent death and family unable to cope. Continuous care is typically reserved for end of life or other crises that requires a constant presence by a nurse or care team. 24/7 ADMISSIONS – Can a patient 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.

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

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 hands-on 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 Continued on page 139 Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com 1193

Four Ways to Improve Your Quality of Life Quality of life is the general well-being of an individual – engagement, health, independence and creativity are all components that may play a role. Here are four tips to help you on the journey to living your best life. Say “Yes” to Adventure Your quality of life can improve significantly as you take on new adventures and continue to grow in the hobbies you love. Adventure can be as simple as exploring your own backyard. Or you can seize daily opportunities to visit local museums, attend orchestra concerts or try new restaurants. Minimize Daily Stress Retirement doesn’t always mean a stress-free existence. Stressful demands once attributed to your career or raising a family may be replaced with additional stress. Financial planners, health care professionals and contacts at retirement communities can be excellent resources to ensure financial predictability and quality care. Make Health a Lifestyle A healthy lifestyle improves mood and your overall outlook on life. Scheduling weekly opportunities to get active by attending a group fitness class at the local senior center or taking daily walks with a friend may be the motivation you need. Grow Your Support System In large part, quality of life is attributed to the strength of our social

120 GREATER BOSTON – SUMMER 2018 - WINTER 2019

connections and the ability to socialize often. Consider volunteering for an organization you are passionate about or enjoying your hobbies with a group rather than on your own. Is a move to senior living right for you? Daily activities at senior living communities make new adventures as simples as saying “Yes!” These activities also allow you to grow your support system by providing opportunities to connect with others over shared interests and hobbies. These interests can even extend to a healthy lifestyle by participating in group fitness classes and utilizing the on-campus gym. The Lifecare Advantage, offered at New Pond Village, provides a financial and care benefit for a continuum of care to provide a worry-free lifestyle at any stage of health. While changes to improve your quality of life can always be made on your own, you may find a senior living community provides the support you need and the opportunities you want to help maintain your highest level of independence.~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Susan Cwieka, campus executive director of New Pond Village, a Benchmark Senior Living Community in Walpole, Massachusetts. She may be reached at 508- 669-3031. Susan is not a medical professional. Please consult your physician before making any changes to your lifestyle.

Smart Diet Choices For Seniors The Mediterranean Diet was originally conceived in the mid-1900s to reflect eating habits of countries like Spain, Italy, and Greece. Popularized in the 1990s by Harvard University’s School of Public Health, the diet features healthful ingredients like olive oil, nuts, fruits and vegetables, fish, and whole grains. Following the diet has had scientifically-proven benefits to cognitive and cardiovascular health. In fact, it was just named the “#1 Best Diet” by U.S. News & World Report. The Mediterranean Diet’s extensive health benefits and convenience make it perfect for seniors. Following the diet’s food guidelines, especially when combined with regular physical and social activity, mitigates risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and makes a condition less severe if it appears. The diet has also been shown to slow cognitive decline; how many popular diets can claim that outcome? The diet’s accompanying lifestyle elements which include both physical activity and eating socially, also work to enhance a senior’s quality of life and reduce the risk and can delay the onset of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. As a population vulnerable to loneliness, isolation, and depression, it is vital that seniors remain active and social.

134 GREATER BOSTON – SUMMER 2018 - WINTER 2019

It can be hard for a senior living alone to cook nutritious meals for just him or herself and equally challenging, especially during long winter months, to find quality opportunities for interaction and activity. These are reasons why assisted living can be a healthful and brain-boosting decision, especially if the assisted living community offers Mediterranean-inspired foods for healthy heart and brain! With a wide range of social opportunities, assisted living helps seniors fill their days with group exercise, meals with friends, and enriching activities like trivia and art, all mainstays of the Mediterranean Diet. Research has shown that seniors thrive in communities that offer engaging and stimulating activities and services. While the Mediterranean Diet can be a great option for seniors, it works best when tweaked to better benefit seniors, with modifications such as meals featuring locally abundant vegetables, low-fat dairy options for heart health, and whole grain breads made from white whole wheat to best resemble what seniors are accustomed to eating. Changes like these make the diet more accessible to seniors and more appealing. Seniors and their families can find sample recipes from this program at AgeRight.org. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Kim Smith, Director of Culinary & Dining Services with Senior Living Residences.

“Be Unique, Live Unique” A groundbreaking approach to serving residents with atypical dementias and other progressive neurological disorders. Research reinforces some realities the Aging Life Care Management industry has been aware of for some time. n

Finding appropriate placement for people with atypical dementias is extremely difficult. Residents are often bounced from placement to placement, their behavior labeled as “problematic” or “aggressive”. The inability to adjust to a facility is seen as failing, resulting in being hospitalized and often over medicated.

All of which can lead to multiple hospitalizations, being rejected by even more facilities, and leaving families to place their loved one in their 40’s or 50’s in a skilled nursing home facility. To address these findings local experts working with Golden Pond have designed an approach to serve residents with atypical dementias and other progressive neurological disorders. The program has adopted the tag line: “Be Unique, Live Unique” to emphasize their dedication to providing customized, person centered care as well as accentuate their distinctive clinical assessment 136 GREATER BOSTON – SUMMER 2018 - WINTER 2019

and behavioral management approaches. This unique approach has been to develop a therapeutic community that offers 3 types of engagement. Meaningful Engagement focused on person-centered engagement, i.e. evaluating what kind of activity is meaningful to the individual person. Purposeful Engagement where a team including Speech and Language therapists, can design individual plans focused on such things as executive function or communication strategies and Passive Engagement which can be as simple as sitting in the kitchen while staff is preparing food, experiencing aromas and finding successful connection with others. For each resident, an individualized program is created that specifically targets how the staff will engage the residents in these three different ways. This allows the functional abilities, changes in mood, or emotional status of each individual to be easily tracked and monitored using an extensive set of tools, collectively referred to as BCAT, to assess cognitive functioning, anxiety and depression and practical judgement. Success in the program is defined continuously, allowing the residents and their caregiver’s the opportuContinued on page 158

Three Tips to Delay Alzheimer’s Disease By 2050, 131 million people could be living with dementia.* While there is no cure yet, a few lifestyle changes may help delay memory loss. Cognitive Training Specialized memory training exhibits the greatest results in improving our ability to think clearly and make decisions. Rather than completing hours of crossword puzzles and brain teasers, developing specific systems to help remember everyday tasks is the most impactful. Instead of writing out a grocery list, create a mnemonic device to remember the items you need while you’re shopping. Use mental math to determine restaurant tips and weekly spending instead of using a calculator. Exercise Frequent aerobic exercise is proven to maintain cognitive health. Exercisers have better blood flow to the memory and processing centers of their brains and have measurable improvements in attention, planning and organizing abilities. The correlations between exercise and delayed symptoms of memory loss suggest the incorporation of regular exercise can delay Alzheimer’s. Participating in aerobic exercise like walking, swimming or cycling for 30 minutes five days a week yields the best results. Control Blood Pressure Evidence shows maintaining good blood pressure can reduce the risk

138 GREATER BOSTON – SUMMER 2018 - WINTER 2019

of memory loss and dementia, as high blood pressure can damage delicate blood vessels in the brain. There is growing evidence to suggest hypertensive people who do not have their blood pressure adequately treated and controlled in midlife are more likely to develop Alzheimer’s. A healthy diet consisting of fruits, vegetables and lean meat may result in immediate, positive changes to blood pressure. Where can I find support? At any point along your journey, a memory care community may provide the support you need. The neighborhood environment of memory care communities includes visual cues and themes to stimulate memory and help residents find their way, contrasting colors to better identify their surroundings, special lighting to reduce shadows in the common areas, and electronic door security inside and out for safety. Making the commitment to focus on health in mind and body will allow you to live a fuller life, but if you need more support, a memory care community may be the right choice.~ *Alzheimer’s Association – 2017 Alzheimer’s Disease Facts and Figures

INTERMEDIATE CARE – 24 hour inpatient care residents who need licensed nursing supervision and supportive care, but do not require continuous nursing care. Residents may receive full assistance with ADL’s and transfers. Residents receive meds from a nurse following a doctor’s

orders and may receive outpatient rehab services. Facilities may use a nurse as a their consultant and the residents receive periodic assessments from a licensed practitioner. MEDICAID WAIVER – An assisted living waiver may be used to transition individuals out of nursing facilities or Continued on page 179

Hospice Care Definitions continued from page 119 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 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 insurance. PCP-OVERSIGHT – Can the hospice patient retain their own primary care physician in addition to the hospice medical director? All hospice organizations require a medical director, a physician to oversee their care. Many times the hospice medical director will work in conjunction with the patient’s own physician. The patient, family and hospice team can determine which physicians will oversee the care and certify the hospice eligibility criteria.

SENIOR HOUSING DEFINITIONS

Senior Housing Definitions continued from page 120

PET THERAPY – There’s nothing like a visit from a four-legged creature to brighten the day of a terminally ill patient. Pet therapy teams visit with patients wherever they reside – at home or in professional care settings. For some patients, contact with these gentle animals evokes memories of pets in their lives, past or present. Studies have shown many benefits of pet companionship, ranging from reduced blood pressure and anxiety to relief from boredom, pain and loneliness. This service is not reimbursed by Medicare, it is an added benefit that select hospice companies have decided to provide for their patients. VA CONTRACT – If the patient is not a Medicare recipient and is covered by the VA, the VA will make payments directly to their contracted agencies. If a patient is a Veteran, but is a Medicare Recipient, they may choose any Medicare approved hospice agency for their care. ~

SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES

Getting Short-Term Rehab Right People have surgery for many reasons, and whether it’s a single procedure or a series, and regardless of where on the body it’s performed, there is one common denominator: everyone wants to return home as soon as possible. However, for some patients, the journey requires a post-surgical rehabilitation stay at a skilled-nursing facility, which can range from a few days to several weeks. Therapeutic treatments are tailored to the individual, and treatment is supervised by a physician and implemented according to an individual care plan. In traditional Medicare, Part A (hospital insurance) covers shortterm rehabilitation, but, as always, certain rules apply. Make sure you understand what is and is not covered, when and how. For instance, if you are away from short-term rehabilitation for more than 30 days, you will need a new three-day hospital stay in order to qualify for the additional rehabilitation services. Your health care provider has your best interests at heart and is rightly focused on your well-being. However, she or he has many patients and cannot be expected to know the specifics of your particular policy coverage, usage and exclusions. As the patient or family member, stay abreast of what your provider

174 GREATER BOSTON – SUMMER 2018 - WINTER 2019

prescribes, with an eye not only to health, but toward finances as well. Your provider may order services more frequently or for a longer duration than Medicare covers, or prescribe services that aren’t covered at all. Your provider is fulfilling their responsibility to focus on patient recovery. It’s up to you and your family to ensure you understand the provider’s plan, including the medical consequences of not following “doctor’s orders.” Find out exactly what any additional charges will be and consciously choose whether to incur them, in whole or in part. Ask your physician if there are lower-cost substitutes. If things are confusing, don’t be shy about asking for help. Get instructions in writing, obtain a copy of the care plan, or if need be, have things translated. It’s best to incur costs knowingly, rather than receiving an unfortunate “surprise” in the mail months later. Illness and recovery are enough for anyone without unnecessary financial stress. No one likes being away from home, and for that reason it’s important to do what’s necessary to recover fully. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted Rodney Gonsalves, regional vice president of operations at Wingate Healthcare. He has served as an administrator of nursing home and assisted living communities for more than 17 years.

Warning Signs of Stroke

Learn the many warning signs of a stroke. Act fast and call 911 immediately at any sign of a stroke. Use FAST to remember warning signs:

F ACE Ask the person to smile.

Does one side of the face droop?

A RMS Ask the person to raise both arms.

Does one arm drift downward?

S PEECH Ask the person to say a simple phrase. Is their speech slurred or strange?

T IME If you observe any of these signs,

call 911 immediately.

Note the time when any symptoms first appear. If given within three hours of the first symptom, there is an FDA-approved clot-buster medication that may reduce long-term disability for the most common type of stroke.

to provide persons at risk of institutionalization with options for remaining in their communities. Assisted living waivers are designed to provide an alternative to more costly nursing home care. PRICE DEPENDENT ON LEVELS OF CARE – Flexible levels of service geared to accommodate different needs over time. Rates may vary depending on the changing levels of care while one maintains the same physical residence. PUBLIC HOUSING (PH) – affordable apartments for low-income families, the elderly and persons with disabilities.

RESIDENTIAL HOME – Assisted living homes are private residential homes that typically have a small number of residents who live together and receive care from live-in caretakers. Adult family homes offer room and board for seniors who want a more private, home-like community. Assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing and dressing are provided. Amenities and nursing services vary greatly between homes. Ask about their services when you tour. They are also referred to as personal board and care homes. Most accept private pay; Medicaid in some instances. Continued on page 198 Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com 179

The surgeon inserts a tube into the opening to bypass an obstruction, allow air to get to the lungs, or remove secretions. VENTILATOR - Moves breatheable air into and out of the lungs, to provide the mechanism of breathing for a patient who is physically unable to breathe, or is breathing insufficiently. WANDERGUARD - Offered at some facilities. A resident with memory loss or confusion wears a small discrete pendant. Each external door in the care home is fitted with a radio detector which detects when a pendant moves near an exit. The WanderGuard will sound an audible alarm, alerting the staff of a patient wandering. ~
