LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER / CONTACT INFORMATION

DEAR VALUED READERS: Seniors Blue Book continues to be the most comprehensive and trusted resource guide in the Dallas area. We are proud to support our community. This year we partnered with Aging2.0, where I will serve as the Dallas Chapter Ambassador. The Dallas Aging2.0 Chapter will focus on accelerating local, aging-focused innovation by providing a networking and collaboration hub for entrepreneurs, researchers, senior care and senior living providers, aging experts, community members, and investors. Watch for an update in our next edition. During 2019, my third year as President of the Dallas Area

Gerontological Society (DAGS), we offered over $19,000 in educational scholarships to students and professionals to further their education in gerontology. This year we are hosting our 30th DAGS Annual Fall Forum, which has become our primary source of fundraising for our scholarship program. In closing, I want to thank God, my family and team, along with our community partners and advertisers for making it possible to offer this comprehensive resource guide to each of you. Blessings, Kathleen Warshawsky, BSN, RN Publisher

Reduce Bathroom Falls!

ustaining our quality of life as we age is important. We value our independence and as a result are delaying the move to an assisted living center or senior care facility. According to the CDC, the leading cause of injuries among senior citizens is simply falling down. One of the highest risk areas is the bathroom. Consequently, bathrooms are a fall hazard especially so for those suffering from reduced coordination, flexibility and strength, and/or failing eyesight.

Falling risks can be significantly reduced by make some adjustments or with a complete bathroom renovation so that the hazards are either eliminated or mitigated. Below are just a few suggestions to protect yourself and those you care about from bathroom falls. Curbless showers. For the seniors that can’t lift their legs, putting in a curbless shower can be a lifesaver. Regardless of your age, if you’ve ever had knee surgery you know how difficult it can be just to enter the shower. A curbless shower can make the transition from wheelchair to Continued on page 26

The Best Preventative Medicine: Exercise

f there is anything we have learned in the last 50 years, it is that exercise is the best preventive medicine. The evidence is now clearer than ever that a sedentary lifestyle is one of the greatest threats to our health and wellness. It is even considered by many to be as dangerous as smoking. The easiest way to improve our overall health is the increase our daily physical activity. The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans recommends a minimum of 150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week for adults. Over 80% of adults do not meet this minimum standard, and it shows in our overall poor health. It is never too late to improve physical fitness and every minute of activity counts. A single bout of moderate to vigorous physical activity can:

The evidence is now clearer than ever that a sedentary lifestyle is one of the greatest threats to our health and wellness.

Start with simple improvements like walking more, taking the stairs, or even doing household chores like vacuuming and mopping more frequently. As you get stronger, do a little bit more or increase the intensity. If you can, add in muscle strengthening exercises to further reduce the risk of fall-related injuries. The cost of preventable chronic diseases has led to skyrocketing medical costs and diminished quality of life for older adults. Physical activity is also linked to reduced risk of cancer, dementia, depression, diabetes, stroke, heart disease, and heart failure. In fact, those who are highly fit are 74% less likely to be hospitalized for heart failure. One of the simplest ways to reduce our overall healthcare costs and improve quality of life in our later years is to be physically fit. Research from The Cooper Institute shows that being fit can result in a 40% savings in annual healthcare costs as we age. Imagine the impact that could have on healthcare costs across the country if we all improved our physical fitness. Quality of life is everything and becomes even more important as we age. Now is the time to get up and get moving. Every minute counts and can help you live Well. Into the Future. ~ Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Note: This article was submitted by the Cooper Institute, CooperInstitute.org Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com

Reduce Bathroom Falls! continued from page 14 shower seat simple and easy for the senior and the caregiver. Grab bars and Handrails. One of the fastest and easiest ways to make your bathroom more elderly-friendly is to install these in key locations. Installing grab bars and rails in the shower, bathtub and near the toilet makes bathing and using the toilet easier not only for the elderly person, but for the caregiver as well. These come in the same decorate finishes as the faucet and shower fixtures and can add to the beauty of a new bathroom while reducing the hazard level. Slip-Resistant Tiles. When remodeling your bathroom to make it more senior-friendly, consider installing slip-resistant tiles or simply applying slip-resistant sealer over the existing tiles. This can be

applied to the entire bathroom or just to the shower area. An anti-slip surface significantly improves the level of safety especially in wet areas. Making effort to improve bathroom safety is necessary, especially for seniors who prefer living independently. Besides, the majority of these improvements are easy and affordable but can make all the difference.~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Floor Coverings International.

Seniors with Dementia Face Common Problems Using the Telephone continued At teleCalm, we find that customers prefer the simplicity of a traditional big button desk phone. Caregivers can even insert photos on some models. Seniors need only pick up the handset and touch a photo to dial family and friends. Because the phone stays connected with a cord, seniors don’t need to fumble with finding the charger, and plugging it in, and keeping the phone charged. Additionally, as dementia symptoms surface, how to use a simple desk phone can be easier to remember than a smartphone or flip-phone. Phone Call Problems from Dementia Seniors with dementia are especially vulnerable to the growing epidemic of telephone scammers. But seniors with dementia also face additional problems with everyday phone calls. As symptoms progress, seniors with dementia may exhibit poor judgement or lose track of time. Your mom may call you at 3 am thinking it’s the

middle of the day. Or she might fall into a repeated habit of calling the police out of confusion, or fear, or the desire to talk to somebody. You can easily find many senior-friendly options for flip-phones and big button phones. Such options can help seniors who face physical challenges. But they don’t address issues like forgetfulness or declining judgement. We founded teleCalm after observing this gap - we built a telephone service specifically for seniors facing dementia and their caregivers. As caregiver, teleCalm lets you personalize phone service for your loved one. You can adjust the service to match your loved one’s needs as dementia progresses. teleCalm phone service can move with your loved one from home, to assisted living, and even to memory care. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Carl Ott with teleCalm.

Can You Help Find A Cure For Alzheimer’s?

bsolutely, finding better treatments and cures for diseases takes a large team, from basic science to clinical researchers, medical teams, clinics, hospitals, research centers and most importantly, participants who volunteer to be in clinical studies also known as clinical trials. Dr. Kerwin, with the assistance of participants like you who volunteer to be in clinical studies, has specialized in clinical trial research for Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases for more than 15 years. While many people have a general concept of what a clinical trial involves, for most, the process is unfamiliar and in this article we will provide an overview of what to expect and an understanding of the process. A few definitions: Study Participant: a person who volunteers to be in a clinical trial/study, signs informed consent to under-go study procedures such as blood work, imaging, completing questionnaires, memory testing, etc.

Communities Add Healthy and Diverse Living Arrangements for Seniors Aging in community offers a world of possibilities to seniors. It’s a chance to stay active, live a healthy life, and remain connected.

48 GREATER DALLAS – FALL 2019 - SPRING 2020

raditionally, people expected to live in their homes until they could no longer do so, then either stayed with a relative or moved to a nursing home situation. These days, some seniors are looking to alternative ideas, such as community-style arrangements, to help meet the challenges associated with aging. We’ve sorted out what this might entail so you can

F•F

Weigh your priorities Hand-in-hand with growing older, our needs tend to shift. Our bodies and minds aren’t what they used to be, and as a result, we sometimes need to rethink our priorities. That being said, some surveys indicate three quarters of older adults prefer aging in place for their golden years. They also prefer to remain connected with their current community, and about a third would consider sharing their home with someone else. Adding all that up, many seniors are redefining their home environments. When faced with their choices, some seniors are electing to go with community-type living arrangements to address both their needs and their wants. In these situations, seniors collect into one village so they can support each other in all respects - sharing grounds, duties, friendships, and so forth. As Women Living in Community explains, aging in community is a solution that nicely complements aging in place, since seniors can fill in any gaps aging in place might leave.

Building an ideal community What would an ideal aging in place community look like? According to some research, a few key aspects should be in place. Senior-friendly communities include things like transportation options, age-appropriate housing, safe common areas, and social inclusion. Transportation options As Huffington Post explains, seniors who no longer drive, or who drive on a limited basis, still have ample ways to get around town. There are taxi cabs or ride-sharing services they can call, and providers like Uber even offer seniors two free trips on the first day of each month. If a senior needs to visit a doctor, Medicare Advantage plans often help with transportation using those same ride-sharing services. And if there is an emergency or near emergency, Original Medicare itself will typically take care of transport. Don’t rule out public transportation, either. Many locations offer discounted programs to seniors, and some even allow them to ride for free. Similarly, some medical centers and hospitals offer their own shuttle services, so seniors considering building a community will find it’s worth checking around to see what’s available.

Is a Deaf Dog Right for You? faithful companion no longer gets excited to hear the leash being taken out, it may not just be old age; it may be that the dog no longer hears well. Now it’s possible to find out. Deafness in dogs, according to George Strain, Ph.D. professor in the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, is generally a genetics problem that is present at birth or shortly after and is usually an all-or-nothing phenomenon. The dog either hears or it doesn’t. However, a puppy that seems fine to the casual observer may not be able to hear. Breeders and owners alike want to know the likelihood that deafness is present or may show up later. Some breeds, such as Dalmatians, and coat patterns, such as that of the blue merle Australian Shepherd, are known to have higher incidences of deafness. The American Kennel Club now asks breeders to seek hearing testing on puppies, much as they advise testing for hip dysplasia. GREATER DALLAS – FALL 2019 - SPRING 2020

Audiologists may earn the Certificate in Animal Audiology through FETCHLAB, an animal hearing and bioacoustics laboratory at the University of Cincinnati. Animal Audiologists can even make hearing aids for dogs. Owners of dogs who’ve been fitted with hearing aids say that although they may paw at their ears at first, dogs soon adapt to wearing the devices. Interested in adopting a deaf or hearing-impaired dog? Check local rescues and Petfinder online for “special needs” dogs; some may be deaf. They are just as loving (or rowdy!) as their canine peers and can be trained much the same as other dogs. For training tips, go to www.deafdogsrock.com.

Medicare 2019 “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 $134.00 (Premium could be higher based on income)

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

$1,364 deductible (per benefit period) It is possible to pay the $1,364 deductible and other daily charges for multiple stays & extended care. 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.

$185 annual deductible. 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. 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 A popular option, Plan F will NOT be available for new enrollees in 2020 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.

A person on Medicare is also known as a “Medicare Beneficiary.” 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.

Patients attend weekly speech and singing groups and practice speaking with intent. The LOUD Crowd provides accountability, camaraderie, education, and support. When you walk into Parkinson Voice Project’s clinic, you do not feel like you are walking into yet another medical office. A warm atmosphere with smiles and cheery voices greet you. Many patients and families arrive early for appointments and meetings to say hello and practice their improved speech

with the friendly staff and fellow LOUD Crowd members. The sounds of speaking and singing with intent fill the hallways. The community that Parkinson Voice Project has created helps those with Parkinson’s disease find support and understanding along their journey. Parkinson Voice Project also hosts free lectures at its clinic that are streamed live on the organization’s website and Facebook page. The lectures are presented by experts on a variety of topics for those with Parkinson’s and their friends and family.

5 Tips for Renewing Life Loved One with Dementia

usic taps deep memories not lost to dementia and can bring those suffering from dementia back to life, enabling them to feel like themselves again, to converse, socialize and stay present. Most people suffering from Dementia have short term memory loss, so tapping into their long-term memories can have an amazing impact on mood. Since music is linked to emotion, our brains connect music with long term memory. Music has the power to transport us back to another part of our story, to connect us, to make us feel seen and understood. “One does not have to be especially musical to respond to music, to recognize music, or to react to music emotionally,” shares the late neuroscience legend Dr. Oliver Sacks. “Virtually everyone does, and they will continue to do so with dementia.” Music opens the door to engagement. What is happening that elicits this universal and emotional response to music? As neuroimaging continues to improve, in addition to research

116 GREATER DALLAS – FALL 2019 - SPRING 2020

on living with dementia, a picture of what is happening is beginning to emerge. “What seems to happen is that a piece of familiar music serves as a soundtrack for a mental movie that starts playing in our head,” explains Petr Janata of UC Davis’ Center for Mind and Brain. This phenomenon lasts through the journey of dementia. The part of the brain activated by music is the medial prefrontal cortex, which is often one of the last parts of the brain to be changed by dementia. Janata has seen music open new pathways to memories thought lost. “The parts of the brain which respond to music are very close to the parts of the brain concerned with memory, emotion, and mood. So familiar songs will bring back memories.”

Why Joining Generations? Our Mission We provide opportunities for the youth to engage and enhance the lives of the senior population. In Joining Generations, volunteers are able to set aside time and plan stimulating activities to engage the residents of senior home communities. We do this so that students as volunteers can be a part of something bigger than themselves, after all, when we include our youth in reaching out to senior citizens, more often than not, residents and volunteers feel the rush of satisfaction that comes from their interaction. This gives the younger generation the ambition to go out and give back to their community and help make the world better, the same way the residents did, not too long ago. Simply said, Joining Generations reaches out to a neglected part of our community and does so much more than just bring generations together, such as giving the youth more purpose and engaging the seniors in meaningful interactions. By establishing relationships between youth organizations and senior communities, we can help cure the disease of loneliness even if just momentarily.

HEALTH AT HOME - NON MEDICAL HOME CARE

Fear of Frailty Lack of activity threatens seniors’ independence and physical health.

e all face fears in our lifetime. Aging brings out new fears not thought of in our youth. For example, we worry about our loss of independence, running out of money, having to move out of our home, and many other factors. Fear of frailty is a huge concern for seniors and their caregivers. Medical professionals describe frailty as a syndrome of weakness, fatigue and decline in physical activity, which can rob seniors of their independence. This can result from a heart attack,

120 GREATER DALLAS – FALL 2019 - SPRING 2020

stroke, fall or weight loss. What often leads to frailty, however, is a lack of motivation and ability to stay active. Inactivity then becomes a big worry for seniors and family caregivers, and this largely is because they don’t want to lose their independence. According to the results of a recent national survey of seniors and grown children, staying physically active was a major challenge for older adults. 74% of seniors 65 and older say that staying physically active is a major challenge, and 81% of adult caregivers say this as well. Furthermore, 9 out of 10 seniors

surveyed say losing independence is their greatest fear. Frailty can be difficult to define, but most know it when they see it, said Dr. Stephanie Studenski

HEALTH AT HOME - NON MEDICAL HOME CARE

(University of Pittsburgh Institute on Aging). She is one of the nation’s foremost authorities and researchers of mobility, balance disorders and falls in older adults. After surveying health care providers and family caregivers on how frailty is viewed, they found that many family members base frailty on social and psychological changes they see in their loved ones. Doctors, on the other hand, focus more on the physical evidence. Therefore, it is important to look at the whole individual regarding social, psychological and physical factors. Notably, Dr. Studenski said that frailty can be both prevented and reversed by activity. The activities can be directed at the senior’s mind, body and soul, all of which are important to helping seniors age well. Staying active, therefore, is viewed by many as vital to healthy aging and, hopefully with time, eliminating the fear factors of aging. ~ Editor’s Note: The study noted was conducted by Home Instead Senior Care and Dr. Stephanie Studenski.

HOSPICE CARE DEFINITIONS

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.

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

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.

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.

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. MUSIC THERAPY – Music Therapy is an established healthcare profession that uses music to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals”.

HOSPICE CARE DEFINITIONS

Hospice Definitions continued from page 135 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 appropriate 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. 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. ~

Tribute Senior Living provides research-based, engaging programs designed to improve body, mind, and spirit for your loved one with dementia.

Communities Add Healthy and Diverse Living Arrangements for Seniors continued from page 49 basic principles. For instance, all essential rooms should be located on the ground floor, including the bedroom, kitchen, laundry, and bathroom. Throughout the home, flooring should be easy to clean but soft in the event of falls, and lighting should be upgraded throughout the home. Doorways and hallways should be wider than in traditional houses, and every property should boast at least one zero-step entryway. Lever-style door knobs benefit aging hands, and there should be at least one work zone in the kitchen that allows for seated food prep. The primary bathroom deserves extra attention, with things like grab

bars, a comfort-height toilet, and a walk-in shower or tub for washing. Common grounds Communities should be in safe neighborhoods, and also include even, level walkways and ample lighting for nighttime outings. Benches throughout the area allow seniors to take breaks, lounge, and interact. Staying social One of the biggest benefits seniors can gain from aging in community is remaining socially connected. By the nature of the beast, they can avoid isolation, which appears to have a detrimental effect on health. Continued on page 227 Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com 213

Communities Add Healthy and Diverse Living Arrangements for Seniors continued from page 213 Seniors who become isolated are more apt to experience memory problems, reduced wellness, mental health issues, and shortened life expectancy. In a community, peers are close, and interaction is convenient and accessible. Aging in community offers a world of possibilities to seniors. It’s a

chance to stay active, live a healthy life, and remain connected. When evaluating your future housing options, it’s worth considering.~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Seniors Blue Book reader Hazel Bridges. Hazel is the creator of AgingWellness.org.

5 Tips for Renewing Life for Your Loved One with Dementia Through Music continued from page 117

1 2 3 4

Ask “What are some of your favorite songs?” or “What song would you love to hear right now?” Thanks to music streaming, most songs are readily available. Create playlists for different moods or life stages. Music can calm, energize, help us grieve, and more. Be mindful about what music you play and when.

If verbal communication is limited, use trial and error. When a song clicks with the individual, add it to the playlist. A good place to start is with songs from when the person was between 18 – 25 years old. Depending on what years were most transformative for them, move forward and backward within the timeframe or decade you’re exploring.

Find songs in your loved one’s native language and recordings by the original artist. Try finding live recordings of a concert you know they went to and was important to them.

Music has the power to transport us back to another part of our story, to connect us, to make us feel seen and understood.

Anecdotally, the positive effects of music are endless. Stories of improved mood, reduced anxiety, subsequent medication reduction and deep connections abound. Formal research is now starting to catch up. The takeaway? Music is amazingly powerful but only with human connection and a nurturing supportive environment.~
