If you’ve been told to cut down on your sodium (or salt) intake or are unsure of what foods you should avoid or cut back on, here are some things you can start doing today to lower the sodium in your diet:

COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND SERVICES

On average, Americans consume 3,436 milligrams of sodium every day. That’s more than twice the 1,500 milligrams that is recommended by leading health experts! It’s clear that Americans have a taste for salt, but too much sodium leads to heart diseases such as high blood pressure, heart failure and other diseases such as stroke, osteoporosis (bone disease), kidney disease, and stomach cancer.

Read nutrition labels. Sodium can be sneaky. Pay attention to sodium amounts and serving sizes. Limit sodium to 1,500mg/day

e e

Think fresh. Make fresh fruits and veggies your choice. Limit processed foods and canned foods like soup, which are high in sodium

3. Avoid temptation. Take the salt shaker off your table; keep it out of sight in a cabinet instead.

Cook creatively. Experiment with using things like lemon juice, herbs, and spices instead of salt.

5. SOURCES: American Heart Association: http://www.heart.org/ HEARTORG/GettingHealthy/ NutritionCenter/ HealthyDietGoals/SodiumSalt-or-SodiumChloride_UCM_303290_Artic le.jsp;

Cook at home. Making your own meals allows you to limit the amount of salt in them. If you do dine out, ask about low sodium options

Eat more potassium. It counters the effect of sodium and is found in bananas, sweet potatoes and many dried beans, fruits and vegebables Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com

How do scammers get your information? Scammers look for information that will help them appear to know their victim. Social media is one of their targets that helps fill in the blanks of information they don’t have - especially for the Grandparents scam. They also use information on mail not shredded

Senior Financial Fraud 101 and phone calls. Information is also purchased on the internet from other scammers. What are the tell-tale signs of a scam? If someone you don’t know contacts you and promises you something, but you have to give them money first, it’s a scam. If the person dangles bait on the phone, but they want your personal information, it’s a scam. If they want your money NOW, there is no time for you to verify the details or call them back, it’s a scam.

COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND SERVICES

f you are a senior, you are a target. Scammers and telemarketers want your money. And sometimes family members and caregivers want more than their fair share as well. The average financial cost for a victim of an elder abuse scam was $28,800, with the telephone being the most common way scammers contact you. According to Merriam-Webster, a scammer is “a dishonest person who uses clever means to cheat others out of something of value.” In 2016, the top scams reported to the Better Business Bureau included the IRS scam, fake sweepstakes/ prizes/gifts, the Tech Support scam, and the Grandparents scam.

It is very easy for scammers to fake the caller ID information (called Spoofing). n Don’t take company information at face value. Look up the company’s information yourself and call them back. Don’t call the phone number the person on the phone gives you. n Don’t stay on the phone just to be polite. Hang up, or tell them “I don’t give money over the phone. Send me something in writing.” n Don’t use gift cards or money orders or wire transfers to pay for anything. It’s the same as sending cash, and cannot be reimbursed. n Check your credit statements for unauthorized activity. n Protect your personal information. When in doubt, don’t give it out. What are the signs you’ve been scammed? n Unrecognized charges on credit card/bank account statements n Missing money from bank account n Stop receiving bills that you expect n Receiving mail at your address but addressed to a different name n See procedures on medical explanation of benefits you don’t recognize n Find accounts that aren’t yours when you check your credit report

The Medicaid Myth – Finally Busted For Good!

veryone’s heard the statement – “Ya gotta be broke to qualify for Medicaid!” It’s a common myth that the most highly-skilled elder lawyers bust almost daily. You DO NOT have to be broke to qualify for Medicaid, and Medicaid is a terrific alternative for anyone concerned about the extremely high cost of long term care. But… Qualifying for Medicaid is not easy. Its laws, administrative regulations and related processes are very dense, intimidating and frustrating. And everyone’s situation is, inherently, different. For that reason, those interested in Medicaid should consult with an attorney who is deeply-steeped in the unique knowledge of how Medicaid works and how to protect one’s hardearned assets from the high cost of a nursing home.

Did you know these things about Medicaid? n There are fifty different types of Medicaid. Yes - fifty! Although it’s a federal program, each state 32 GREATER DALLAS – 2017 SUMMER–WINTER

runs its own, and they’re all a little different. Qualifying in one state, doesn’t qualify you everywhere. n Texas is very generous to the spouse of someone who needs long term care. The “well” spouse can have a substantial amount of assets and still qualify their loved one for assistance… but only if they know how or seek the advice of someone who does. n Even in those “emergency” cases when the applicant needs long term care immediately, there are strategies that can preserve up to 75% of all his assets. Don’t panic! Get advice from someone who deals in this area daily. It’s not just some subset of estate planning. Then, there’s Medicaid’s “pesky ole” lookback period. Nearly everyone has heard of it, but very few really understand it. In short, Medicaid looks at the five years immediately preceding one’s application, and they assume that transfers made (for less than fair market value) or gifts given outright,

In This Economy, Know Who You Can Trust.

he average income for an individual 65 years and older is $18,657 annually. The National Council on Aging reports that 25 million adults 60 + are at or below the federal poverty line, and in many instances, grossly below the federal poverty line as evidenced above. Older Americans are facing significant economic challenges including maintaining cost-efficient housing, affording skyrocketing insurance rates, meeting basic everyday needs, and more. In Dallas County, the Elder Financial Safety Center, a collaborative partnership made up of The Senior Source (a nonprofit dedicated to helping older adults), Dallas County Probates Courts, and District Attorney’s Office reports the average social security benefits their clients receive is $998.72. “Retired adults are in the spending phase of their lives, many still have mortgage payments, are paying rent, or facing foreclosure”, center director Julie Krawczyk explains. Regardless of socioeconomic status, all older adults 50 and over are at risk of financial exploitation from family members, con artists, and strangers. True Link reports financial abuse of older adults is a $36 billion dollar annual problem. 42% of the exploitation cases in Dallas County occur by a family member, caregiver or close friend according to the Elder Financial Safety Center. In a time where economic stability is plaguing older adults and vulnerable elderly, you and your loved ones need a trusted resource to turn to for support with questions and guidance regarding aging and financial longevity. Services provided by the Elder Financial Safety Center include unbiased and professional financial coaching, insurance counseling, help with debt management, assistance with benefits, and help to find a job. If you believe you or someone you love is a victim or could become a victim of exploitation, fraud or a scam, call 214-525-6130 to reach the experts at the Elder Financial Safety Center. Regardless of income or debt, if you are considering retirement, need to change jobs or go back to work, if you need help creating solutions to stretch your money, or if you know a vulnerable elderly adult that needs ongoing support with their finances, we can help. The Elder Financial Safety Center serves older adults 50 and over in Dallas County of any income level. ~ Editor’s Note: To learn more about the Elder Financial Safety Center, call Julie Krawczyk at 214-823-5700.

How Do Hearing Aids Work in Noisy Places? Speech is difficult to understand in noisy places, but if you have hearing loss, this problem is complex. Hearing aids can help with this. Ever wonder how?

44 GREATER DALLAS – 2017 SUMMER–WINTER

ood-quality, properly-fit hearing aids have the ability to distinguish noise from speech. They process sounds in complicated ways that help you understand speech. Yes, you DO hear more background noise than before wearing hearing aids, but the background noise does not get amplified as much as the speech does. In addition, many hearing aids can change the direction of their focus when things start to get noisy. If you turn toward the person you want to hear, noise to the sides and back of you are lowered, while the person’s voice is increased to allow you to hear over the noise. Understanding well in noise may not happen the first time you go to a restaurant wearing your new hearing aids. You will hear more of ALL sorts of sounds; this includes

The solution to the problem of hearing what you want to hear and filtering out the rest is next to impossible unless you are fitted

with hearing aids customized to do the job for YOU and no one else. If your hearing aid fitter doesn’t get it right the first time, it’s no one’s fault (unless you’ve inadvertently chosen someone who isn’t especially good at this programming!). Ongoing adjustments are to be expected. Stick with it! One day, you’ll find yourself in a restaurant thinking, “I can’t believe I just heard what s/he said to me, even in this noise!” ~ Editor’s Note: This article was written by Laurie Bornstein, MS, CCC/A with Executive Hearing.

noise. It takes a little while for your brain to relearn how to filter out enough of these noises that you can understand someone speaking to you. Don’t give up! You can help by wearing your hearing aids all day and not only when you think you need them. Your brain will start filtering out those subtle environmental sounds that aren’t worthy of your attention. When it does, you will happily discover that you can hear someone talking right over the background noise.

Medicare 2017 “In A Nutshell” (Parts A, B & Medigap Plans) Original Medicare is a government health insurance program primarily for people age 65 and older. It has four main parts: A, B, C & D. The chart below is an example of how Parts A & B work together with a traditional Medicare supplement also known as a “Medigap Plan.” Medicare Part A Hospital Insurance

Medicare Part B Medical Insurance

Supplemental Policy Plans A - N Medigap

Generally no cost (If you paid Medicare taxes while working)

Most people pay monthly $104.90 - $121.86 (Premium could be higher based on income) $166 annual deductible.

Premium varies by company, age, location & other factors.

$1,288 deductible (per hospital stay) It is possible to pay $1,260 several times a year. Plan covers: Inpatient hospital care, home health care services, hospice, inpatient skilled nursing & more. Providers are paid by Medicare assignment. No coverage outside USA. No out-of-pocket maximum. Many people add a Medigap plan, Part D or an Advantage Plan (Part C) to fill the “gaps” in the coverage.

80/20 after deductible. Plan covers: health care providers, ambulance, emergency care, outpatient surgical, preventive services and other Medicare approved benefits. Most doctors accept Medicare patients. No coverage outside the USA. No out-of-pocket maximum. Many people add a Medigap plan, Part D or an Advantage Plan (Part C) to fill the “gaps” in the coverage.

These plans generally pay the Part A & B deductibles, the 20% not covered by Part B & other Medicare eligible benefits. When this coordinates with Medicare, many benefits are 100% covered Plans coordinate with any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare Can provide benefits outside USA Plans are only available through insurance companies. Need to add a Part D plan to cover prescription drugs & avoid penalties. Must have Part A & B to enroll.

For more information visit www.medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE. There is no additional cost to use the services of a full time insurance professional. Please call us or a broker in your local area for additional assistance. This article was written by Craig N. Anderson, President of Anderson Benefits, Inc. located in Salt Lake City, Utah.

COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND SERVICES

new Medicare billing code (G0505) now allows clinicians treating Medicare beneficiaries to be reimbursed for providing care planning to those experiencing cognitive impairment (memory loss), including Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease. This is a very important change in the billing system as it will allow physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists and certified nurse midwives to offer assessment and care planning services beyond the scope of the Annual Wellness visit and receive reimbursement from the Physician Fee Schedule.

Home Care Success Story

Your company is amazing. Jessie, Jill, Mimi, and the woman in charge of staffing were efficient, fast and kind. I found out late Wednesday that mom was coming home Thursday mid-day. I called Jessie Thursday morning. Jill called me and by 1:00 they were ready to come in with someone on a 24-hour-basis. Unbelievable! Mimi has been terrific. She has helped mom with her physical needs, prepared meals, helped in the middle of the night, done laundry when mom needed it...and has kept mom safe. It has been a relief; we have not had to alter our own schedules and enjoy your spare moments visiting with mom and Mimi in a carefree manner. Family members who didn’t think it necessary for mom to have any help are now on board including mom! Thanks You! — Connie L.

HEALTH AT HOME - NON MEDICAL HOME CARE

Alleviating Family Caregiver Stress continued from page 104 the issue of being socially isolated because their ability to drive, walk and communicate are compromised by their illnesses. Children and spouses can feel a high degree of stress if this issue is not ameliorated by professional companion care. It is very important for discharge planners, patients and their family to identify, acknowledge and plan for non-medical home care for patients and their elderly spouses with chronic conditions such as Alzheimer’s, dementia, ALS and Parkinson’s disease. Over 90% of the medical professionals in attendance at a recent continuing education seminar about caregiver stress reported that they

would change their professional performance by both a) Making an effort to determine if the family members would be available to provide the home care that the patient needs; and b) Recommending that families use professional non-medical home caregivers if there is a need. So, when confronted with the problem of caring for an older adult, using a professional non-medical caregiver is an option that can enhance the lives and well-being of both family members and the older adult who needs extra care. Here are some examples of outcomes created by families who chose to use professional, non-medical caregivers: “Martha arrived and the entire

Caring for yourself also requires having the courage to ask for and accept help when necessary.

A full 90% of caregivers surveyed reported suffering from chronic sleep deprivation. Add the physical and emotional stress of caring for another person, and you’ve got a recipe for disaster, often resulting in a condition commonly referred to as caregiver burnout or compassion fatigue.

HOSPICE CARE

Hospice Care Definitions HOSPICE Hospices provide individuals facing terminal illness with care at home or in a healthcare facility. The goal is to assist patients to live the last stage of their lives with dignity. The focus is on comfort rather than treatment. Services Provided: N-NURSE – Assesses patient’s physical needs, develops and coordinates the plan of care, ensures symptom control and management, provides patient/family teaching as needed SW-SOCIAL WORKER – Assesses patient and family emotional and social needs, develops a plan of care, provides counseling, referrals and support to meet identified needs CHAPLAIN – Assesses patient and family spiritual needs, develops a plan of care, provides counseling, assists with memorial preparations. HOME HEALTH AIDE – Provides direct personal care to patient, emotional support to patient and family, reports identified needs to RN. VOLUNTEER – Provides respite and needed non-medical services for patients and their families, offers support at time of death and during bereavement. Levels of Care: RO-ROUTINE CARE – Occurs when regularly scheduled visits are adequate in maintaining the individual’s symptom management. Care is provided at the individual’s private

residence, a retirement community, an assisted living, or a skilled nursing facility. RE-RESPITE CARE – Provided when the family needs time to rest or go out of town for a short time. Care may be provided in a long-term care facility depending on the condition of the individual. Hospice is responsible for financial arrangements with the Long-term care facility. GIP – General In-Patient Care – Provided in a skilled nursing facility when the symptoms cannot be managed elsewhere. The skilled nursing facility must have 24-hour R.N. coverage as deemed by Medicare guidelines. General in-patient care is usually short in duration. This level of care is usually due to symptoms which are out of control and more intensive nursing services are required. If an individual is at a care facility, room and board are covered by hospice during this period. CC-CONTINUOUS CARE – Provided to prevent the individual from going to the hospital when a crisis occurs. It 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 – 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. AROMATHERAPY – Uses plant materials and aromatic plant oils, including essential oils, and other aromatic compounds for the purpose of altering one’s mood, cognitive, psychological or physical well-being. This is not reimbursed by Medicare. 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. 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. IN-PATIENT CARE – These hospices offer full hospice services in their on-campus unit or building. The patient moves into the inpatient care facility to receive their hospice services rather than in the patients’ home setting.

LICENSED MASSAGE THERAPY – 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.

Hospice Care Definitions continued

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 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. 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. PALLIATIVE CARE – Specialized medical care for people with serious illness. It is focused on providing patients with relief from the symptoms, pain and stress of a serious illness – whatever the prognosis. It is approContinued on page 139 Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com 131

Can Death Be

Affordable?

What some funeral homes don’t want you to know.

he median U.S. funeral costs $8,508, not including cemetery costs – a 28.6 percent increase over the previous decade. This is just one of the reasons people are considering direct cremation which can be purchased for less than $800. The good news is even for those opting for traditional burial, there are ways to reduce the total cost. Alternatives to full-service, traditional funeral home. Today, there are full-service funeral homes specializing in affordable services. Typically, they avoid expensive real estate and opt for modest office locations saving families $1,000s by reducing their overhead. The saving is passed on to the families. There also are cremation service providers taking the same approach. All funeral homes hold the same licenses and are subject to the same inspections regardless of how much they charge.

Can Death Be Affordable? continued from page 136 Embalming is not required. Unless you are planning a public viewing, embalming is rarely required, and is not required by the State of Texas. A popular option is having a closed casket, (or the deceased person is not in attendance at all) with a framed photo, enabling people to see the person as they were in life. Shop around for a casket or urn You are not required to buy caskets or urns from the funeral home, although most provide a wide range for your convenience. Today, they can be purchased through outlets including Costco and Amazon. And, by Federal Law, the funeral home can’t charge you more for providing your own. Place your own obituary If a funeral home is going to

charge you to coordinate placing the obituary, do it yourself. Most large newspapers provide the capability for you to submit, review and pay for obituaries online so you never speak to a salesperson. Unlike generations past, there are many funeral options offering the same quality of service at lower costs. The trade-off is you must ask questions; do your research; and be open to the available options. Planning enables you to take your time to make these very emotional and important decisions. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was written by Frank Seddio, General Manager and Funeral Director with Local Cremation & Funerals.

priate at any age and at any stage in a serious illness and can be provided along with curative treatment. 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. 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.

nursing care. Payor sources usually accepted are Medicare, Medicaid, VA, some insurance plans and private sources. TRACH CARE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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.

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. Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com 145

Eat a healthy diet — Recommend the DASH eating plan. Eat a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, low fat dairy and reduced in fat. Lower your cholesterol by significantly reducing saturated fats, and avoiding trans fats. xercise E — At least 30 minutes almost every day of the week. Dancing and walking are great at any age.

top smoking S — Smoking raises your blood pressure, which increases your risk for heart attack and stroke estrict sodium intake R — Limit sodium/salt intake to less then 1,500mg per day Moderation of alcohol consumption — No more than 1 drink per day for women (2 drinks per day for men) n

ontrol your blood C pressure — Blood pressure measures the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries. If your blood pressure stays high for a long time, you may suffer from high blood pressure or hypertension. High blood pressure increases your risk for heart attack or stroke more than any other risk factor.

Making life long changes is the key to preventing heart disease. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was written by Kathleen Warshawsky, BSN, RN Publisher of Seniors Blue Book Greater Dallas and President of Dallas Area Gerontological Society.

Keys to Assisted Living

[Cost] is much like used car sales. Not due to unprofessional marketers, but because of similar market dynamics.

OPTIONS Greater DFW has over 500 options just for assisted living - and more every month. Try finding a list. Many web sites offer selected information at the cost of unexpected marketing calls and hidden commitments. Large, new, and heavily marketed locations are easy to find. Some of the best care, however, is found at places with limited marketing budgets and even less marketing expertise. A good advisor knows the options.

HOUSING PLACEMENT & RESOURCE SPECIALIST

Senior living and care decisions are some of the hardest in life - especially those involving Assisted Living or Memory Care. Safety, quality of life, and dignity are all affected and costs average $3,700/mo. A professional called a senior placement agent works in person with families to find peace of mind by addressing 4 vital areas:

SAFETY Safety should be the first criteria in narrowing options. In Texas, however, only recent violations are published for Assisted Living. Years of historic data plus personal experience make for the best assessment. Long Term Care Ombudsmen are advocates organized by each state. They know their locations intimately. Senior Care Authority is a placement agency that tours extensively and assigns safety ratings based on years of violation and complaint history. A good advisor knows the safety record.

4 Keys to Assisted Living continued CARE Care is impacted by leadership, staffing, licensing, training, policy, culture and other factors. Many families are pointed in the wrong direction through generic lists, internet research, or inexpert referrers. They invest precious time and energy considering a community, only to later realize it could never meet their needs. A good advisor knows the capabilities of each option - especially when they differ from what is advertised.

combined with monthly corporate goals, create cyclical pressure to fill rooms. Specials are common, change monthly, and can obscure long term impacts of “inflation” and care adjustments. Families have a huge information disadvantage. A good advisor helps get a fair price.

COST This is used car sales. Not due to unprofessional marketers, but because of similar market dynamics. Every location is unique. High holding costs,

All transitions in life have their own share of ups and downs. Buying that first house is an exciting time as we voice our independence to the world.

ith that independence comes taxes, insurance, filling the house with furniture, and the list goes on. When the time comes to transition out of that independent setting and look for assistance with activities of daily living the difficult decisions seem endless. How do I find the right place for my parents or myself? Who’s going to help pack up Mother’s belongings since I live out of the area? How do I know if the facility provides Quality Care? What do I do with my parents’ house? Dad keeps falling and needs physical therapy but refuses to go to a nursing home; what do I do? These questions and more will continue to arise as we age. When life transitions become taxing there are people that you can turn to for help. To find the right place for your parents, contacting an experienced Referral or Placement Agency is a good first step. There are Senior Move Managers to help with reducing clutter and packing up belongings. CMS.Gov (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) regulates many of the services for seniors and is a good resource to research some types of facilities. There are agencies that specialize in working with seniors in selling their homes once they transition to a new community. Some agencies have combined services to assist families in multiple areas of need. Also, DADS (The Department of Aging & Disability) is another resource that provides information on Care Managers and Social Workers that can assist you as well. Remember when faced with life’s never-ending transitions as we age, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Just remember the services you need are out there and available to you. You are not in this alone!

A floor plan can be an excellent guide to ensure items will fit with ease. Draw in furniture to determine what items, such as a comfortable chair can be brought along. This will make moving day much smoother.

One of the best ways to help your

loved one feel at home in a new setting is to make their personal surroundings as homelike as possible. This means setting up a room with personal effects, photographs and other items your loved one associates with home. Familiar pillows and memorable blankets can add comfort and familiarity.

Tips for Helping a Loved One Downsize to Residential Memory Care

elping a loved one transition into a memory care setting usually means downsizing to a smaller residence. Here are some that can help make downsizing decisions easier and make the move as comfortable as possible. When feasible, let your loved one take an active role in selecting their residential care setting. Once a care location is selected, empower your loved one to help choose items to bring along.

An entire wardrobe is not necessary, but your loved one will need several outfit changes, night clothes and undergarments. Daily laundry and housekeeping are often available to make sure garments are kept clean.

Bedding should be soft and comfortable. A plush, but lightweight comforter can be soothing while

MEMORY CARE ASSISTED LIVING COMMUNITIES

Person Centered Care he core principals of Person Centered Care (PCC) include assurance of choice, dignity, respect and independence. At the heart of PCC is the idea of choice, and that every person deserves to make their own choices. For some, this may mean sleeping in late. This may seem like a simple choice, but for many elders it’s not that simple. For years traditional large facilities have been based on a model of care that is focused on task-oriented efficiency. Staff duties often come before elder’s choices. PCC rebalances those work priorities to focus on the elder rather than the

tasks to be accomplished. Nowhere is this more evident than in the Small House concept. Small House has been pioneered alongside PCC to allow one-on-one, reciprocal relationships between resident and caregiver based on a resident’s needs, not on accomplishing duties or tasks. While one-on-one contact is desired in the large facilities, the caregiver-to-resident ratio doesn’t allow for prolonged direct contact. In Small House there are only 6 to 16 residents, and it is about the care the resident receives, not about the task of giving care. Instead of following strict schedules, which are needed for larger numbers of residents, this concept gives more freedom of choice. The bottom line is that

At the heart of Person Centered Care is the idea of choice.

Moving: Where Do You Fit In?

In the end the decision is usually made based on location...

OVING. That single word strikes fear in most people. Moving is not fun. Moving is stressful. Knowing that moving is no small feat, now add moving into a retirement community and you have what can possibly lead to a meltdown of all parties involved. Sure, there are professionals that will help guide you in this process. They will help arrange the move and they will help find you a place to live as long as that community is on their preferred list of companies who offer a commission if you move in. They might even pack a few boxes for you. What happens though after you move in? You would think that one would choose a community based on care or amenities or even because of the activities. In the end the decision is usually made based on location; as it pertains to relatives or children in the area and the feel of the community. When it is all said and done we make a life changing decision based on our gut instincts and how that community makes you feel while you are standing in the entry way. You want to have that feeling.

What do smaller assisted living facilities have to offer over the larger, more corporate-type assisted living facilities? hen older adults consider variations in assisted living facilities within Texas, it is important to be aware of the facility differences. The most important differentiating factor deals with the number of residents the facility is licensed to care for. A smaller assisted living facility will care for residents ranging between 3-16 in occupancy. While a larger assisted living can have dozens if not hundreds of residents within their care. A sought after alternative to commercial settings are smaller assisted living facilities called Residential Care Homes. These are licensed facilities by the state of Texas doing business out of a residential property. Do to sheer size of properties found with larger facilities, smaller assisted living alternatives have proven to result in both residents

meeting basic requirements. More than the frequency of contact between a staff and residents, an environment with a corporate feel can trigger unwelcoming emotions for someone wrestling with familiarity. Sometimes a larger assisted living facility will use linoleum floors, hospital style curtains in semi-private rooms, and cafeteria-style food services. Residential Care Homes have proved to be a solid option for older adults while seeking a welcoming place to call their new home under the assisted living umbrella.

Being that the state regulations for assisted living facilities are moderate, it may surprise seekers to discover that there is a difference between the staff to resident ratio found in smaller versus larger facilities. It is not uncommon to encounter a Residential Care Home with a ratio of 1 caregiver to 3 residents. While at larger facilities they could surpass a ratio of 1:12 during shifts. Neglect and abuse are growing concerns due to the influx of new facilities simply AL Lic#146355

and family members feeling more in touch and connected. The benefits of a home-like setting for assisted living (or a residential setting for older adults) is the personal touch, and the attention to detail in set of choices and creative approaches towards senior care - working closely with the doctors, the families, and the residents. Within the homelike setting, owners and staff are known to be more hands on with all the day-to-day operations. As a result, there is a familiarity with the medication requirements, and personal needs of each resident.

What Is Palliative Care?

he term “Palliative Care” has become a popular phrase in healthcare, but many patients and caregivers are confused by what the term really means. Palliative care is a broader philosophy that can include hospice care, but isn’t necessarily required. Palliative Care can be used as a separate area of medical practice while the patient is receiving treatment. It’s appropriate at any age and at any stage of the serious illness. As with hospice, palliative care aims to improve quality of life from every different angle. It can include the following goals: To keep pain to a minimum, using clinical methods. n To treat symptoms and improve health where possible. n

226 GREATER DALLAS – 2017 SUMMER–WINTER

To assist with mobility and safety. n To allow meaningful interactions between patients and their friends, family, and community. n To improve spiritual and emotional well-being through counselling, art and pet therapy programs, and more. n To help reduce the sometimes heavy burden on caregivers through training, respite care or everyday hands- on assistance. n

How Hospice and Palliative Are Similar Hospice and palliative care both offer compassionate care to patients with life limiting illnesses. But palliative care – which is always a component of hospice care – can be used as a separate area of medical

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

When They Are Used Hospice care is reserved for termi-

nally ill patients when treatment is no longer curative during the last 6 months of life, assuming the disease takes its normal course. Palliative care can be employed while the patient is continuing active treatment through different phases of their life limiting condition. Emotional care Hospice care and Palliative Care treat the whole patient and the family, offering psychosocial and spiritual counseling. ~

practice while the patient is receiving treatment. Hospice care includes palliative care and addresses the patient’s physical, emotional, and spiritual needs as well. Hospice can help with such daily activities as administering medications, bathing, and dressing, but hospice does not provide full time caregivers. Hospice requires that a willing, able and available caregiver be in the home, unless alternate arrangements are made. Palliative care is also focused on relieving symptoms associated with the patient’s condition while receiving active treatment.

Tips for Helping a Loved One Downsize to Residential Memory Care continued from page 203 allowing for easier movement at night. Bedside lamps that are easy to turn on, or nightlights, are excellent additions so that your loved one is not in the dark at nighttime. Decorating the front door to their room with a wreath or other personal item can help your loved one remember which room is theirs.These visual cues will be helpful.

Downsizing into a residential care setting can be difficult for

loved ones living with memory disorders, but there are ways to make the transition go as smoothly as possible. By taking the time to select the right setting and then empowering the loved one to make it feel like home, families can ease the process and reduce stress for themselves and their loved ones. ~ Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Note: This article was submitted by The Cottages at Chapel Creek.
