A Bird’s Eye View of Senior The U.S. has the most expensive Healthcare in healthcare in the world, but it is last or near last on dimensions America of access, efficiency, and equity. (Commonwealth Funds 2014 International Healthcare Review)

Grayest States (those 65 and above) in proximity to St. Louis 14% or Greater – Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas 13-13.9 % - Ohio, Wisconsin 12-12.9% - Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky, Tennessee Average Annual Growth rate of elderly population (U.S.) 2010-2030 = 28% 2010-2030 = an increase from 40M to 80M There is a mass migration of tens of millions (10,000-12,000/day) global citizens turning 60, with the Baby Boomer generation accounting for the bulk of this growth in the U.S. To put it another way one Boomer turns 69 every 8 seconds. 50+is the fastest growing segment of society and will by 2018 will outnumber children under 5 in our country, thus there will be more walkers than strollers in America… this will be the first time there will be more older adults than children on the planet (Amy Hanson, 7) or as Ziegler states it: by 2015 there will be more over 65 than 15 in America, a fact that will never change. Some refer to this event as more

dramatic than the industrial revolution. It is commonly referred to as the “Silver Tsunami”, “Longevity Revolution, or the “Aging Revolution”, “Age Wave”, “Coming Generational Storm”, “the Great Midlife Migration”. In America alone this demographic is creating its’ own economy. At 7.1 Trillion, it is right behind the total economy of China and third only to the entire economy of the U.S. (Oxford Economics). On a global scale the number of people age 60 is expected to grow past 2 Billion by 2050 (United Nations Population Fund) ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Michael Quirk, Publisher, Seniors Blue Book, Chicagoland, you can reach Mike at 708-515-8220 or mike@seniorsbluebook.com

out of how to get durable medical equipment (DME) covered with Medicare. There are a few things that you should know as you go through the process.

The first thing that you need to understand is how durable medical equipment (DME) is defined. Medicare considers medical equipment as durable medical equipment based on the following criteria: n

It must be deemed medically necessary by your doctor or primary care provider (to help a medical condition or injury) The doctor must provide an order or prescription for it It must be durable (can be used repeatedly) It must be suitable for use in your home (can also be used outside of the home) It must be likely to last for at least 3 years

The next thing that is important for you to understand in regards to DME and Medicare is your Medicare coverage type. Knowing your Medicare coverage type will help determine what and how Medicare will pay. Medicare Part B will cover DME that you can use in the home. While Medicare Part A covers DME for use when your are in a skilled nursing facility or a hospital. Some of the common types of DME covered by Medicare include, but is not limited to the following:

• Canes • Crutches • Walkers • Wheelchairs • Bedside commode chairs • Hospital beds • Seat lifts • Home oxygen equipment

The last thing that I would like share and ask that you keep in mind, is that the amount that Medicare pays for your DME may vary. An example of the variation would be Medicare pays 80 percent and you are responsible for paying the other 20 percent. There are several factors that are considered and determine how much Medicare pays for your DME. Those factors include, but is not limited to Medicare competitive bidding program. Medicare now uses a competitive bidding program which changes the amount that Medicare pays for certain DME. Under this program you may be required to use certain suppliers and other terms and conditions may apply. For more information and/or to clarify any questions or concerns that you have regarding any of the contents in this article please call Medicare directly. For DME questions and or orders please feel free to contact your local Walgreens Home Health and DME Solution Center. ~

IS MACULAR

DEGENERATION STARING YOU IN THE FACE? If you’re over 50, you are at risk for an eye problem that may cause legal blindness. Macular degeneration is easy to diagnose, and early detection and treatment can slow or even stop its progression. If you have been diagnosed with macular degeneration, or if you notice segments of your vision are distorted, darkened, or blurry, you need the professional help of the Irwin Retina Center at Ingalls Hospital. The Irwin Retina Center at Ingalls Hospital is one of the Chicago area’s premiere ophthalmology centers, specializing in advanced procedures for treating macular degeneration. Serving the South Suburbs, the Irwin Retina Center is a university-affiliated, research-based pioneer in the treatment of conditions affecting the retina.

Recognizing and Depression can occur at any Treating Depression age. It is an illness that affects the brain. It crosses all educational and socioeconomic levels.

However, as people age they experience more losses; retirement, divorce, deaths of friends and relatives, and independence, for examples. Additionally, they may have chronic illnesses, such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and arthritis that may lead to depression. Often people become depressed following a stroke due to experiencing some physical limitations. Depression may occur with anxiety and substance use disorder. Additionally, a person who is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or another type of dementia may experience depression because they understand the progressive nature of dementia and know they will reach a point where they will no longer be able to care for themselves. Family history can be a contributing factor. If someone has had depression before, they are at risk for a repeat episode. One in five women and one in ten men will experience it in their lifetime. Often a combination of factors may lead to depression. Depression causes marked changes in a person’s behavior and routine. Symptoms of depression include: enduring sadness, lack of motivation, loss of interest in usual activities, feeling irritable, isolating from friends and family, loss of energy, difficulty concentrating, disturbed

sleep, changes in appetite and body weight, body aches that have no medical cause and thoughts of harming oneself. Appetite and sleep could be increased or decreased. Some people over eat which causes weight gain and others lose their appetite therefore lose weight. Some people sleep too much; others have difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. There are many treatment modalities available. A counselor can provide individual supportive therapy. There are also small group sessions available facilitated by a behavioral health counselor. Medications can be prescribed by a physician or nurse practitioner. The best treatment option is a combination of therapy with anti-depressant medication. Social support is very important, as people with depression tend to push others away and isolate. Exercise, proper nutrition and spiritual beliefs are additional treatment support. The key is to recognize the signs and symptoms and seek professional help. An assessment and plan of care can lead to successful treatment. Depending on the severity level of the depression a person may be treated outpatient or inpatient. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Maureen Rafa BS, RN, C, the Community Assessment Coordinator for Metro South Medical Center, Senior Behavioral Health Unit.

What Is Magnetic Resonance Have you ever called a hospital to Imaging? (MRI) schedule an MRI and been placed on hold for 15 minutes only to be disconnected? Have you ever gone to the hospital for an MRI and had to walk from the parking garage down long hallways to one registration desk only to find out you had to walk to the other end of the hospital to the MRI suite. Did you ever wonder, what exactly is an MRI and CT and how safe are they? What is Magnetic Resonance Imaging? Magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, uses a strong magnet and radio waves to provide clear and detailed diagnostic images of internal body organs. Not only does MRI avoid exposure to x-rays, it also allows evaluation of body structures that may not be as visible with x-ray, CT, or other diagnostic imaging methods. What is Computed Tomography? Computed Tomography (CT), also called a CAT scan, uses x-ray and computer equipment to produce images of the body. Our modern multidetector CT scanners acquire images rapidly. Powerful computers are used to modify the images so that they can emphasize diverse tissue types such as bone, lung, solid organs or blood vessels. Our

equipment is specially designed to minimize radiation exposure so it is completely safe for the patient. Why Choose Progressive Radiology? We have earned our reputation for excellence by performing specially tailored examinations for your exact clinical problem and providing rapid, accurate interpretations. At Progressive Radiology we offer: n

Quick scheduling availability to accommodate your needs by caring, friendly staff High field and OPEN MRI at our locations RI Arthrography to better M visualize the inside of your joints and surrounding structures.

COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND SERVICES

Transitions Made Easy Do you have loved one in need of downsizing? Are you a home health care provider with a client that is in need of transitioning or selling their home? We assist seniors and their families that are in need of downsizing and selling the family home. CAB Properties takes the pain out of the sale process so you can focus on your loved one. There is no need to clean out the home or try to fix it up to sell. Take what you want from the home and we will do the rest. One of the best reasons to contact us is that we give options. One option is to close in 30 days with cash. Another option is we can rent out the property and the senior or the family can have some monthly cash flow which is perfect if you’re upside down on your home. We are leaders in property management and have the best systems in place. Everyone has a different sit-

uation and circumstance that is why CAB Properties customizes a plan and option that best suits the needs of the senior and their families. There are no contracts other than the contract for the sale of the home and there are no hidden fees or realtor commissions. We eliminate long closings and contingencies. CAB Properties is committed to making a

difference in community’s one home at a time. It costs you nothing to call us and find out what we can do to make a difference in your situation. We over promise and over deliver! Call today to find out how we can help you and your family. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Mike Fisher of CAB Properties LLC 815-955-1271.

HOW CAN I HELP YOU?

I’m a leader in property management, and I buy properties in any area in as-is condition. No repairs, updates, or cleanouts required. There are no realtor fees, hidden fees, or obligations. YOUR HOME IS IN GOOD HANDS

It was in my own mother’s transition that I learned there was a need for this service. This, coupled with my experience in remodeling for over 25 years, has made me passionate about assisting seniors like my mom as they begin their journey into retirement.

New Wellness Center Keeps The Franciscan Senior Health and Seniors Healthy Wellness Center at Franciscan Health Dyer opened in March and is and at Home centered around a philosophy that the well-being of seniors who have chronic care needs, as well as their families, are better served in their own communities, when possible. That is why Franciscan Senior Health and Wellness offers all-inclusive care for seniors living in Lake County, including nursing care at home. The goal is to keep them living independently and safely, at home The program is designed to help people aged 55 and older, who have chronic health conditions and that qualify for nursing home care, continue to live safely in their community. Franciscan Senior Health and Wellness provides their medications, transportation to and from the center and to doctor appointments. The program has an interdisciplinary team that includes a medical director who will be their primary care physician, nurses, a physical and occupational therapist, a dietitian, social worker, center manager, home care coordinators, recreational therapist, transportation manager and a personal care attendant. The program likewise has an adult center where participants can socialize and offers an interdisciplinary

approach where it coordinates all of the care needed to enable participants to safely live at home. The team approach enables them to address the individual medical, social, emotional and practical challenges that many seniors and their families face.

The program also assists adult children who are helping to take care of their parents by helping with education on the aging parent and facilitating advanced directives. And, the clients see a physician, who is a geriatrician. The center is located in Suite 305 of the Franciscan Health Dyer South Pavilion, 2150 Gettler St., and is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. For more information or to arrange a tour, call (219) 864-2630, or toll-free, 1-844-8177223. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Laurie Matthys, Wellness Center Manager.

The “Forgotten Benefit” Gives Dignity and Dollars As a young mother, giving birth shortly after the tumultuous times to Veterans & their of the Vietnam war, I used to pray that my children did not have to Surviving Spouse experience the horrors of war.

Thanks to those brave veterans who served in the previous wars, my children were able to grow up in peace. For that I will always be grateful. Fortunately, our Political leaders provided more than gratitude for these Veterans. The Veteran’s Administration provides a benefit for the Veteran and surviving spouse and yet the majority of individuals who qualify, do not even know the benefit exists. At the close of World War 11, President Truman declared that we needed to provide for our Veterans (and their spouse) as they go thru the aging process. Thus the Aid & Attendance pension was created. It is not charity. It is not automatic for being over age 65. It is not just for the impoverished. II is a reimbursement benefit for those individuals who are blind, have dementia or are paying for assistance with two or more “Activities of Daily Living” whether they are living at home or in an Independent, Assisted Living, or Nursing home Community. It is a tax free benefit that keeps many Veterans from having to go on Medicaid. It often enables the Veteran

to remain in his/her own home or be able to pay the rent in an Assisted or Independent Living Community. But you won’t find it advertised on TV and often its very existence is denied. So many families come to my office and say they were told the benefit does not exist. It definitely does! It is not easy to obtain. as the application process is very paperwork intensive. The chance for approval if you file your own application is small. If you have no assets and low income, the local VA office can help you. If however you do have assets that would probably disqualify you from the benefit, you should seek professional help from a Financial Advisor or Attorney that specializes in this area. The 2017 benefits are: Veteran: $1794/mo., Spouse: $1153/mo., Veteran & spouse: $2,127/mo (where Veteran needs care) You may reach Veteran’s Consultants, Inc. at 815-277-2267 for your free consultation. Remember you earned this benefit many years ago, don’t be afraid to apply. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Kenda Pardy, CEO, Veterans Consultants, Inc

With more and more families dispersed geographically, adult children who live far away from their elderly parents face ongoing worry about their health and safety. As aging parents, particularly those who live alone, face medical and mobility issues, questions relating to their physical, social and psychological well-being arise. How do you know if a parent’s needs have changed and more care is necessary? Adult children should be aware of any changes in their parents’ attitudes or behavior— changes which are often undetectable over the telephone. There are, however, clear warning signs that some type of intervention is needed.

Mail and bills are left to pile up. The simple act of opening and filing mail becomes overwhelming. Managing a checking account can also become too much for a parent to handle. The house is cluttered or unkempt. This is especially troubling if a parent has always been neat and orderly. Food in the refrigerator is uneaten or spoiled. Shopping, cooking, and cleaning become too

much trouble. A parent might eat just enough to get by, but suffer nutritionally. Losing weight can be another sign that a parent is not eating a nutritious diet. Signs of scorching on the bottoms of pots and pans. A result of short-term memory loss, this is a dangerous sign that parents are forgetting about pots left on the stove, causing a fire hazard, and threatening both the individual’s and the surrounding neighbors’ safety. The parent wears the same clothing over and over again and has other personal hygiene issues. Doing laundry has become physically challenging, particularly if the washing machine is in the basement. Or there may be a fear of falling in the tub or shower. Missed doctor’s appointments. Sometimes this is simply a product of not having transportation and not knowing how to access ride options. Repeated phone calls at odd hours. When a parent telephones friends or family at odd hours, it may be a sign of memory loss, or a cry for help— a sign of depression or isolation. Arranging

for a regular check-in phone call and a regular visit, could make all the difference. Forgetting to take medication. A sign of short-term memory loss or depression, this isn’t just a quality of life issue, but a real risk factor. Inappropriate behavior, clothing or speech. You may hear about this from a neighbor, someone who has noticed that your parent is not dressing appropriately for the weather, for instance. That’s a sign that he or she might be confused. Symptoms of depression. A frequent problem for many older people, depression causes marked changes in behavior and

routine. Feelings of hopelessness or despair, lack of interest in once pleasurable activities, crying, listlessness, and not wanting to get dressed can all be indications of a problem. Once adult children decide that a parent needs assistance, the next step is determining what kind. Call LifeStyle Options, Inc. for a FREE conference. Even if adult children live out of the area, we can be their eyes and ears so a parent’s every day well-being will no longer be such a worry. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by M. K.

HEALTH AT HOME - NON MEDICAL HOME CARE

Information Seniors Seniors are the true Gems of the Need to Know world; such knowledge, such life experiences, such stories.

Sadly, many of our seniors throughout our communities are struggling with different types of dementias. This disease carries with it a stigma and sadly the isolation and loneliness for those affected. Families don’t always know where to turn for help. Most villages and townships have wonderful senior programs, and events one can get involved in. Many villages have volunteer programs where retired seniors can volunteer and have a meaningful purpose. What few families don’t know is that most villages have what’s known as a “nurse’s closet.” These closets facilitate residents of that particular village the ability to borrow medical equipment if needed whilst recovering from an illness. Some seniors need this equipment temporarily for post-operative procedures. Medicare does not cover all equipment needed in the home, so it’s worth a phone call to learn about what you can borrow. In addition to the nurse’s closet, did you know that every village has a non-emergency number that our citizens/seniors can call if they have

a question in regards to what may or may not be an emergency? This simple phone call can save you a lot of expenses as an ambulance ride is not always covered by Medicare and certain conditions apply in order for Medicare to cover it. The Emergency Management and 911 Communications Center is proud to announce the implementation of a program designed to assist you and /or your loved ones in the event of an emergency. On August 28, 2009, Senate Bill 2057 – Premise Alert Program – was signed into law and passed in the General Assembly with unanimous, bipartisan support. The Illinois Premise Alert Program (PAP) allows individuals with disabilities or special needs their families or caregivers to register with Police, Fire and/or Ambulance agencies. The information provided will supply these agencies with potentially life-saving information about their conditions if called upon to provide emergency services. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Aishling Dalton Kelly, Aishling Companion Home Care, 708-361-7845 information@aishlingcare.com

HOSPICE CARE

The Role of a Hospice Social Workers play a crucial role in Social Worker providing patients and their families with quality, compassionate care and help bridge the gap between caregivers and doctors. In hospice care, their presence on every care team is very important.

At VITAS Healthcare, the nation’s leading provider of end-of-life care, our social workers are vital members of the interdisciplinary team, which is comprised of nurses, physicians, chaplains, volunteers and other specially trained palliative care experts. Their purpose is to assess the psychosocial needs of the patient and family, define social service goals for alleviating any issues that may arise, and provide the counseling and casework required to meet these goals. The social worker’s evaluation helps make medical care effective and suitable for each unique family. They share their assessments with the rest of the team so that all are aware of each family’s needs and wants. If there are extenuating circumstances or difficulties, emotionally or financially, social workers can assist and provide extra support if needed or suggest beneficial

resources. VITAS’ interdisciplinary team conducts weekly team meetings where they discuss the patient’s plan of care and any necessary adjustments that should be made to accommodate the patient and family’s immediate needs. During these meetings, the social worker’s role is to advocate for the patient and family’s wishes and to ensure that what is outlined during the meeting is carried out. Once the patient passes away, social workers team up with the chaplain to provide bereavement information and resources like grief support groups to help loved ones cope with the loss. For these reasons and more, each VITAS patient’s interdisciplinary team includes a dedicated social worker who advocates for them and their families. For more information about hospice care, visit www.VITAS.com or call (708) 781-4400. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Cathy Carlson, RN, VITAS Healthcare General Manager

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. 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-

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. Continued on page 146 Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com 137

HOSPICE CARE

Hospice Care Definitions continued from page 137 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. 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. ~

HOSPICE CARE

Hospice Helps Patients and Families Focus It’s an all too common situaon Quality of Life

tion – a family is at the bedside of a loved one who is nearing the end of life. Each family member has a different opinion about the decisions that need to be made.

Far too many people wait until they are in the midst of a health care crisis before thinking about what options are available or what their loved ones would have wanted. By waiting too long to learn about options, such as hospice, people often end up spending difficult days in the hospital, and opportunities to be with loved ones at home are lost. When a family is coping with a serious illness, hospice provides the type of care most people say they want at the end of life: care with comfort and dignity. Hospice care is an alternative to traditional health care specifically geared to the unique needs of terminally ill patients and their families by providing physical and emotional care to patients. Some people may not realize that hospice is not a place – rather, it’s a plan of care. Unity Hospice provides care wherever it is that a patient calls home – family residences, senior or assisted living communities and nursing homes. Care is provided by an inter-disciplinary team of dedicated professionals. Physicians, nurses and hospice aides provide levels of medical care dependent on patient and family goals. A dedicated, caring staff of social workers, chaplains and bereave-

ment coordinators provide emotional and spiritual support and can further access community services available to patients if needed. Volunteers are also available to provide the “little things in life” that sometimes mean the most, such as socialization, support from pets, reading poetry or just being present. Knowing that it is a difficult time for a patient and their family, the goal of Unity Hospice is to understand how patients define quality of life and do all they can do enhance their comfort and dignity. Perhaps the most important goal in hospice is to create magical memories that outlast time. With the individualized, comprehensive care provided by Unity Hospice, patients and families experience more meaningful moments together. Not knowing when to call hospice is especially difficult. Serving patients in Illinois, Indiana and Missouri, Unity Hospice is available 24/7 to discuss if hospice is the right choice for you or your aging loved one. The services provided by Unity Hospice are covered by Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance. No person is turned away due to inability to pay. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Unity Hospice Regional Manager of Communications Jenna Matzer. For more information about hospice and how it can help you or your loved one, contact Unity Hospice at 219-769-8648 or www.UnityHospice.com.

SENIOR HOUSING DEFINTIONS

Senior Housing Definitions

(Sec 8) - find your own place and use the voucher to pay for all or part of the rent. Participating households are required to pay the greater of 10% of their gross annual income or 30% of their adjusted income towards rent. To qualify, a household’s annual income must not exceed the applicable income limit for the area as adjusted by family size. (Sec 236) Property owners in this program make mortgage payments that are based on a 1% mortgage interest rate. HUD then provides a subsidy to their lender to cover the difference between 1% and the market interest rate on the property’s loan. Participating households are required to pay rent equal to the greater of 30% of their adjusted income (not to exceed the market rent) or the basic rent amount set by HUD for that particular property. Any amount paid by the household that is more than basic rent is considered excess rent, which the owner pays back to HUD in repayment of the subsidy.

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

SeniorsBlueBook.com

A Lot Happened in 2016. 2016 is a year that will go down in the history books as extraordinary. Political and economic disruptions (Brexit and the unexpected U.S. election results among them) occurred both globally and domestically. We saw significant shifts—in politics and the economy; in attitudes regarding globalization’s benefits and costs; and in the availability of debt and the cost of capital, particularly with interest rates. Seeds of change were planted in the skilled nursing and post-acute care sector, as well, with the ongoing movement away from fee-for-service payment systems to value-based payments. Change Is the Operative Word for 2017. Indeed, change is the operative word for 2017 with regard to skilled nursing. Despite the shift in administration from President Obama to President Trump, it is likely that the push toward value-based purchasing and away from fee-for-service by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) will continue. The “new normal” for skilled nursing reimbursement is likely to focus on care transitions— coordinated care—that are built on a foundation of measurable quality outcomes and data sharing. Mandatory and voluntary bundles, accountable care organizations, managed long-term care support services, and value-based purchasing for hospitals are likely to become more common. Eventually, this transition will incorporate more risk sharing on the part of health care providers. Location, Location, Location. With

regard to broad trends in the seniors housing sector, the NIC MAP® Data Service has timely and relevant measures to gauge performance. At the national level, the combined seniors housing sector—independent living, assisted living and memory care properties-- appears to be near equilibrium. Occupancy has oscillated around 89.8% for the past three years. Despite the run-up in construction and the delivery of roughly 36,000 seniors housing units since late 2013 in the nation’s largest 31 metropolitan area markets, demand has largely matched new supply. At the local level, however, the data shows that not all markets are created equal. In some instances, markets are booming, such as San Jose, while others are not, such as San Antonio. As with any real estate, it’s all about location and, subsequently, it’s all about local market area supply and demand conditions. Influencing factors related to supply conditions include the availability of labor, natural and regulatory barriers to entry, entitlement procedures, and the competitive landscape. And for demand, influencing factors often include the concentration and number of adult children and retirees, income levels, net worth, home ownership rates, the velocity of home sales and home prices, and broad-based employment conditions and drivers. Combined, these factors will determine a local market’s performance. ~

Short-Stay “Respite” Memory Care: 4 Reasons You If you are a caregiver, you may have heard the term “respite” care. Need It Basically, respite care is an arrangement that allows you to make a reservation for your loved one for a short stay in a senior living community. Respite care is especially useful for those caring for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Why? Because the intensity of the care you provide can really take its toll. Respite care gives you a chance to re-charge and tend to things you’ve been neglecting. And it gives your loved one a break as well, exposing them to the benefits of professional memory care in a nurturing environment. Here are four important things to know about respite care:

It gives you a break. Your physical and emotional health can have a major impact on the wellbeing of your loved one. A break (even one week) makes a huge difference.

It gives your loved one a break. The Alzheimer’s Association recommends that caregivers provide loved ones with regular opportunities for socialization with new people and experiences. Memory care communities provide that opportunity.

It lets you “try out” a memory care community. What would it be like for your loved one to live in a memory care community? Trying it out, through respite care, can help remove the “fear of the unknown”. Should a move become necessary downstream, you will both be better prepared.

Not all respite care is the same. Not all communities offer the same level of services, however. Your loved one should receive the same level of care as permanent residents. He or she should be treated like family. So, before you make a decision, visit communities in your area. Find out what is included in the respite stay. And don’t be afraid to ask questions! For more information on respite care near you, please contact one of the following Anthem Memory Care communities: Porter Place in Tinley Park at (708) 336-3105 or Harvester Place in Burr Ridge at (630) 5047941. Or visit the Anthem Memory Care website for more information. Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Joy Nance, VP Operations, Anthem Memory Care.
