Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Do you, or someone you care for, Conditions have arthritis, diabetes, asthma, heart disease, back pain, cancer, fibromyalgia, depression or ANY other ongoing health condition? Do you long for a better quality of life? If so, we can help you understand how to implement what your healthcare provider has suggested you do by attending the “FREE” Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP) developed at Stanford University. Caregivers are welcome too. CDSMP workshops are held in community settings and meet 2 to 2-1/2 hours per week for 6 weeks. CDSMP is an effective self-management education program designed to enhance regular treatment and disease-specific education. Workshops are facilitated by two trained leaders, one or both of whom are non-health professionals, with a chronic disease themselves. CDSMP deals with problems associated with chronic disease, appropriate exercise, appropriate use of medications, communicating effectively with family, friends, and health professionals, nutrition, and, how to evaluate new treatments. Participants who attend CDSMP receive a book “Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions” as well as a CD “Relaxation for Mind and Body” as supplemental materials to the program. 2 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

In studies, participants who took CDSMP demonstrated significant improvements in exercise, communication with physicians, self-reported general health, health distress, fatigue, disability, social/role activities limitations, and quality of life. We also offer a Diabetes Self-Management Program (DSMP) which is specific to Type 2 Diabetes. DSMP was developed at Stanford University and the class structure and materials are similar to CDSMP. DSMP subjects covered include: techniques to deal with the symptoms of diabetes, fatigue, pain, hyper/hypoglycemia, stress, and emotional problems such as depression, anger, fear and frustration; appropriate exercise for maintaining and improving strength and endurance; healthy eating;

2 3 4 5

appropriate use of medication; and working more effectively with health care providers. Participants will make weekly action plans, share experiences, and help each other solve problems they encounter in creating and carrying out their self-management program. For more information about all the programs we offer and classes in your area, please visit www.moarthritis.org.

Whose Peace of Mind Are At 74, Sarah wakes up each We Addressing? morning and goes through her regular routine. Sure, her arthritis makes the first few steps painful, but she has learned how to adapt.

It wasn’t too long ago that she was working full time, and before that running a house full of children. Life has been full of the need to adapt, and Sarah has always conquered her new challenges. Jessie is Sarah’s daughter. She lives out of town, is working and raising her family. On her last trip home, she noticed that her Mom was not getting around as easily as before and she started to worry about her being on her own. Jessie decided to get Sarah a personal emergency response system, or emergency button, in case she had a fall. “It will bring you peace of mind in case something happens when you are alone,” she said. But, Sarah keeps the button in her desk drawer. The idea of accidentally hitting it and having the paramedics knock down her door did not bring Sarah “peace of mind”, it brought on more anxiety. The things that bring peace of mind to a loved one, isn’t necessarily what brings peace of mind to the senior. We all have different motivations and priorities. Understanding that when communicating will help families find a comfortable middle ground that meets everyone’s needs.

18 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

What is it that truly brings your loved one their own peace of mind? For Sarah, it was connection to her children. Using technology to check in on her made it seem like her children wanted to use the tools instead of talking to her. It made her feel like a problem that Jessie wanted to solve. But, for her daughter, it was a way to make sure that her Mom was safe because she wasn’t close by. Taking the time to talk through your own personal motivations and not projecting your feelings onto the senior will help them understand why the safety measures are important to you. Likewise, getting the senior to talk about how the “help” makes them feel, will allow for open communication and can ultimately lead to compromises that work for everyone. For Sarah and Jessie, they compromised that they would start each day with a quick good morning phone call as a check in, and Sarah agreed to wear the button when she was going up and down the stairs to the basement to do laundry, bringing everyone their own personal peace of mind. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Dana Jessup, CSA, CADDCT, CDP.

How Do You Recognize A STROKE? Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability in North America.

It’s affecting greater numbers of younger people (about a quarter of all strokes occur in those under 65). Only about 30% if victims recognize the symptoms and get to the hospital in time to receive the brain-saving, clot-busting medication tPA. “You lose somewhere on the order of 2 million brain cells a minute during a stroke.” Says M. Shazam Hussain, M.D., head of the Cleveland Clinic Stroke Program. “If we educate the public, people will know that if they see someone having symptoms, they should quickly call 911.”

guess yourself. Many people don’t recognize the symptoms even when they know them. Maybe it’s because strokes involve the brain so people are not thinking clearly. Act first! Stroke treatments are extremely time-sensitive if you wait it may be too late. Go to a major medical center, if possible, where doctors have the ability to go into the brain with catheter to remove the clot. In the past, doctors would wait an hour to see if the clot buster tPA would work before

Symptoms or signs of a stroke: Be FAST – The acronym FAST from the American Heart Association tells us to watch for signs – F for face—does their smile droop? A for sudden arm weakness—does one arm not rise as high as the other? S for speech—is speech slurred or troubled? Finally, T for time is of the essence—act fast call 911. The Cleveland Clinic Stroke Program added BE to the symptoms. B is for balance—sudden balance difficulties or dizziness? E for eyes—sudden vision loss/blurriness in one eye or vision field? Be safe not sorry. Don’t second 28 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

they did the procedure. Because stroke victims lose 2 million cells per minute that is now too much time to wait. Now treatments tPA and catheter clot removal are done in conjunction with each other. Editor’s Note: Article was retrieved from the Cleveland Clinic website my.clevelandclinic.org

Medicaid and VA Pension In recent years a number of Planning non-lawyers have started businesses offering Medicaid and VA Pension planning services to seniors. While using one of these services may be initially cheaper than hiring an attorney, the overall costs may be far greater.

If you use a non-lawyer to do these types of planning, the person offering services may not have any legal experience or training. Bad advice can lead seniors to purchase products or take actions that won’t help them qualify for Medicaid or VA benefits and may actually make it more difficult. The consequences of taking bad advice can include the denial of benefits, inappropriate annuity purchases that have costly penalties to get out of, a Medicaid penalty period, or tax liability. This can cost seniors and their family thousands of dollars and results in worse care. In response to the complications arising from non-lawyers offering Medicaid planning services, some states, and most likely more to come, have issued regulations or guidelines providing that Medicaid planning by non-lawyers will be considered the unauthorized practice of law. For example, in these states a non-lawyer may not render legal advice regarding qualifying for Medicaid benefits, draft a personal service contract, determine the need for or execute a trust. Applying for Medicaid is a highly technical and complex process. A

32 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

lawyer knowledgeable about Medicaid law in the applicant’s state can help applicants navigate this process. An attorney may be able to help your family find significant financial savings and better care for you or your loved one. This may involve the use of trusts, transfers of assets, purchase of annuities or increased income and resource allowances for the healthy spouse. There are numerous benefits for hiring an attorney that is experienced in qualifying individuals for Medicaid and VA Benefits. An accredited attorney, needs to know how to meet the needs of their clients to protect their assets. This requires someone who has gone through these processes before and is up to date with changes in regulations and the law. Ensuring there are enough funds to cover living expenses and medical costs takes a comprehensive approach and a close relationship between an attorney and beneficiary. Knowledgeable and Pro-Active planning are key to affording the care you want. Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Jim Berger, JD, CFP®.

But did you ever stop to think this might be relevant for your brain as well? The human brain is the largest muscle in our bodies. And research indicates that the more we work it, the better it works! Mentally stimulating activities are associated with a variety of brain health benefits including lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, higher levels of memory and recall, and increased ability to perform all sorts of thinking tasks. This is great news! We can have a positive impact on our brain as we age! In addition, the harder we work our brain, the more it benefits. If you wish to create your own brain workout program, here are some guidelines to keep in mind: n

D o new things. That which is new is typically more difficult and thus a better workout for the brain. Take a new route home, learn to play a musical instrument, or learn a foreign language.

Do things that are mentally difficult. The more mentally challenging the activity, the better. Play chess rather than tic-tac-toe.

Do things with other people. Social stimulation is important for mental health. Attend lectures with friends or join a book group.

Make it fun. If it is drudgery, it won’t be sustainable. If you find something you like, that continues to be mentally challenging, stick with it! If you take exercising your brain seriously, you may reap the benefits for many years to come! ~

attention to diet and nutrition becomes even more crucial, both as a means of preventative medicine and ensuring quality of life.

Nutritional needs will vary from person to person and should ultimately be informed by a medical professional. However, there are small lifestyle and dietary changes every senior can implement to improve their quality of life. In fact, by adopting a more healthy diet, seniors can help improve chronic health symptoms, enhance their overall health, and improve their mood and mental agility. n

S tock Up on Fruits and Vegetables It’s no secret that fruits and vegetables are good for you, but according to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends that fruits and vegetables should make up half of your plate at every meal or 2 cups of fruit and 2.5 cups of vegetables a day. Fruits and vegetables are full of essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Additionally, they help to prevent heart disease, high blood pressure, and certain forms of cancer. S witch to Healthier Fats Saturated fats and trans fats have the potential to raise your “bad cholesterol” level and elevate the risk

of heart disease. By cutting back on animal-based products such as butter, bacon, and untrimmed meats, these unhealthy fats can be properly managed. Eliminating or cutting bad fats from your diet can be as simple as switching from whole to fat-free milk or milk alternatives, eating turkey burgers rather than beef burgers, or altering the kind of peanut butter you use. Of course, some fats are necessary to a healthy diet. Plant-based foods such as olive oil, nuts, seeds, and avocados contain healthy fats that enrich your diet by promoting cell growth and boosting your energy. Switching to healthier fats can help seniors properly manage diabetes, and promote heart health . The American Heart Association also recommends eating fish at a minimum of two times per week.

B ump Up Your Fiber Intake Increasing your fiber intake is a dietary recommendation for people of all ages, and for good reason. A high fiber diet helps to reduce belly fat, increases energy, reduces risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Fiber-rich foods (which include fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and beans) work to increase digestion and can make you feel fuller longer. Fiber is one of the easiest foods to add onto your normal routine. To increase your fiber intake, simply re-

place current grains with whole-grain breads, switch out white rice with a brown rice alternative, and switch out your pasta for a whole-wheat alternative. Additionally, you can add whole grain cereal to your yogurt, or add flaxseed to your salads. Nutrition is a vital part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle as you age. For caretakers and seniors alike, subtle dietary adjustments can help increase brain activity, prevent chronic illness, and drastically improve mental health. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was written by Danika McClure, Griswold Home Care – Griswold Home Care blog.

Green Tea, TTP, and Steps to We all live with aches and pains Better Health and find ways to deal with them. Sometimes it’s a little rest or a warm towel on the aching muscles. Often it’s a mixture of simple remedies, to soothe the pain, and medications from the doctor, to reduce swelling in the joints.

There’s no one “right” answer for everyone and it’s likely to change overtime. So it’s really about finding out what works, what we can afford, and what we can live with. Still, as far as reducing pain goes, seeing what our options are never hurts. Besides prescription pain medications, researchers are discovering soothing qualities in plants and things made from them. Things like green tea. For instance, your body naturally makes many proteins and some (specifically one called “tristetraprolin”, or TTP for short) naturally lower the painful swelling from arthritis, psoriasis, and multiple sclerosis. What’s this got to do with green tea? According to researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), green tea may encourage the body to make more of the pain-reducing TTP protein.

46 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

A research study by the Human Nutrition Research Program backs this up. The study found that one gram of green tea increased TTP. In other words, while green tea and TTP treatments may not replace pain medications, they offer another way to reduce pain and enhance your flexibility – in your muscles and in how you soothe them. Similarly, the Missouri Arthritis and Osteoporosis Program (MAOP) offers classes to help manage and prevent the effects of arthritis, osteoporosis, high blood pressure and other chronic diseases. Walk With Ease classes give you the support to make walking a regular part of your day. Living a Healthy Life teaches you skills for directly managing arthritis, heart disease, as well as diabetes and lung disease. For more information or to find classes near you, take a look at our classes. Like green tea, Steps to Better Health classes can help you stay active and lead a healthier lifestyle!

Courage There may have been a moment when you knew something was wrong—a moment where you may have acted in a way that surprised you or made you take a step back. There may be have been a moment when a loved one sat you down and told you that you needed help. There may have been a moment where you looked in the mirror and did not recognize the person you saw staring back at you. There may have been a moment where you decided that you were tired of feeling the way that you have for a very long time or a moment where you dropped to your knees wishing for it all to go away. The word courage comes from the Latin word cor meaning “denoting from the heart” or “the seat of feelings”. Many people think of courage as an extreme act against the odds, of doing something dangerous or different, or going above what you thought you could in bravery; however, to others—and maybe to you—courage is taking the first step. Courage is picking up the phone and dialing a number that can lead you to support. Courage is walking through the doors of a facility with an open mind and sometimes many tears stating, “I need help”. Courage is

52 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

walking into a group therapy session on the first day stating your name and telling a room full of strangers what brought you to that blue chair. Courage is trusting that this first step in asking for help is your first step in finding hope, in healing, and in seeing a glimpse of light at the end of a never-ending tunnel. You may have started reading this by accident. You may have just happened to stumble across an article that you hoped would have the “answer”. Though the letters in this text may not have the answers to take the pain of grief, of trauma, of depression, of anxiety, of addiction, or of loss away, it does have an answer. No, you’re not the only one hurting, and yes, there is help available. No matter how you got here, here you are. Only you know your truth. Only you can decide what your first step is. If you decide that a single blue chair may be waiting for you in a room where support, hope, and maybe even a light at the end of the tunnel lies, please call 816-795-1445, option 1, for your free assessment. Is it your time to be courageous? Editor’s Note: This article was retrieved from www.sphkc.net. See ad on page 53.

What is PACE? Midland Care’s Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) is a not-for-profit health care program that helps people at risk for needing nursing home care who meet a level of care requirement stay in their own homes and communities. For PACE participants, PACE means a team of experienced doctors, nurses and other health care professionals getting to know the participant and working with him or her to design a plan to aid in achieving health goals. PACE may be for you if you are interested in a team committed to helping you: Be as healthy as possible for as long as possible n Remain in your own home and community with your family n Focus on what you can do, instead of what you cannot do n

PACE includes health services based on a plan of care, such as doctor appointments, hospital visits, behavioral health services, dental and vision care, pharmacy, medical transportation, day center care, home support, nutrition services, medical supplies and, if needed, nursing facility care. Participating in PACE simplifies access to health care and prevents fragmented health care that can be unsafe. The PACE 62 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

team gets to know each participant and works with that person to make decisions about care. At the Midland Care PACE clinic, participants access their primary care physician, nurses, physical, occupational, speech and nutritional therapy services and social activities at one convenient location with transportation provided if necessary. In-home services may also be provided as needed. PACE is an innovative program offered by over 100 local providers in 32 states, including Midland Care. The PACE model of care was created in 1973 in an effort to help the Asian-American community in San Francisco care for its elders in their own homes. For these families, the option of placing their elders in nursing homes was not a culturally acceptable solution. In order to meet this community need, local organizations created an innovative way to offer a comprehensive array of medical services using home care and an adult day setting. The model was tested nationally and found successful. PACE has been available in Northeast Kansas since 2007, when Midland Care opened the 37th PACE program in America.

Most People Wish To Stay Out Of A The rise of home health care and Nursing Home why home health care and home health care insurance is more popular now than ever before.

Independence The ability to stay in one’s home is an option that provides freedom and independence to seniors. Familiar surroundings and the comforts of home have undeniable benefits, as does the ability to live where and how one wants to live. While health concerns and difficulties with transportation and household chores may prompt loved ones to investigate assisted living or nursing home options, home health care can help in these areas and ultimately serve as a realistic alternative to facility living. Flexibility While at first it may seem that assisted living or nursing home care is inevitable (especially if the level of required care for a loved one is likely to increase), many home health care providers can taper services up or down as needed. In other words, the transition to facility living may not be necessary. For example, a client may start out needing only a few hours of assistance per week, then gradually require additional services until 24hour care is a reality. Not only can home health care providers meet

64 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

these needs as they arise, they can even decrease services as a client improves. This level of flexibility means peace of mind for clients and their loved ones. Consistency Because home health care offers seniors independence and the flexibility of adjusting service levels as needed, it can eliminate disruptive transitions. Seniors can remain in the comfort of home rather than moving

from location to location as health care needs change. Plus, clients have the consistency of working with caregivers who truly get to know them. In fact, many home health care providers try to match clients with compatible caregivers, increasing the quality of care.

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.

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.

Senior Real Estate Specialist Seniors Real Estate Specialists are REALTORS® who have additional training to work with older clients. If we compare a real estate license to a bachelor’s degree, the SRES® designation is the agent’s major. SRES® designees recognize that a home often is the largest and most precious asset that baby boomers and people 50+ have. Thus, SRES® designees bring a unique approach to each transaction and interaction with clients. They not only offer a deep knowledge of real estate and the local and economic issues shaping market trends, but they’re also educated on issues of particular concern to aged 50+ clients. Their special skills help 50+ real estate buyers and sellers look at the big picture, factoring in financial issues and current and future care needs, to ensure that each client arrives at the best decision about selling a property and finding a new home. Such 50+ real estate specialized REALTORS® also recognize the emotional dimension associated with selling a beloved family property and

72 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

approach clients and family members with patience and empathy. A Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES) can help guide your family through the complex issues and unique situations you may encounter. This designation is only given to those REALTORS® that have been trained on how to help seniors. A real estate professional who has experience in senior’s issues, and who can

put you in contact with other similar trained professional advisors, can be an invaluable resource. You can count on a SRES to help guide you through the process and the special considerations, making the transaction less stressful and more successful.

Want Stress/Hassle-free Downsizing Solutions?

hen we buy your house, we can provide assistance and resources to make the transition to your next home as stress free as possible. Here’s how sellers describe their experience when Home Downsizing Solutions by The Sierra Group bought their home: On my behalf, and that of my sister and our family I wish to express our most heartfelt appreciation for all you have done for us. From a more than fair offer to 6 months of probate you have been nothing but understanding, compassionate and supportive. —Mike P Working with your firm and those colleagues that support you was the perfect fit for my family and I would without any hesitation recommend you to others that are interested in selling their home. I would tell them that they can expect empathy, honesty, integrity, flexibility, and a personal touch that is rare but in this case very real! My parents are incredibly thankful as am I and they are in a much better living situation that they both deserve. —Ryan W Having sold our house to Ben Souchek, I can honestly say it was the easiest transaction we’ve gone through in some time. Ben has been up front and done exactly everything he said he would do. It’s not often you run across someone these days that does this and is willing to help in any way he can. Our

74 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2017

experience with Ben has been nothing but positive. —Richard & Nelda T After many delays on my part you were patient and helpful. Everything you promised was fulfilled in very short period of time with no hassle at all. Thanks to you my move was stress free and offered me great peace of mind. I would highly recommend your company to anyone. —Estelle M Thank you so very much for buying my home so I can move to be closer to my family. You handled all the things I didn’t understand and answered all my questions. I would recommend your company to anyone. You people are great. —Regina R We appreciate being able to sell our house to you “as is,” with a flexible departure date, and to leave in the house those items that we did not wish to keep. We especially appreciate being presented with several offers from which we could select the offer that best suited our needs. —Robert R Because of health issues it was impossible for me to do the down sizing of over 50 years of things—you were God sent. Again, thank you so much for saving so much work & heartache for a 75 yr old woman. God bless you. —Mary T Call or go online to order a FREE book “Secrets to Downsizing My House.”

HEALTH AT HOME - NON MEDICAL HOME CARE

Managing Medication For With aging comes many changes Better Health that affect health and how health is managed. Seniors are more likely to have one or more chronic health issues such as diabetes or heart disease. With more illness comes the need for more medication.

The average senior will take more than four medications daily either to treat or to prevent disease. The more medication one takes the more potential there is for the medications to interact with each other or to cause an adverse effect on the person taking them. Seniors are more likely to be hospitalized for adverse medication effects such as falls, fractured bones and confusion. Polypharmacy, too many pills, occurs when a senior is taking four or more medications. The best way to minimize polypharmacy is to regularly review medications with your primary care provider by bringing in all your medication bottles as well as any nonprescription medications you take to each regularly scheduled appointment. It is important to work with your primary care provider to reduce medications whenever possible. A senior should not stop taking a medication unless

the decision is made in collaboration with their primary care provider. The time of day a medication is taken can affect how well it will work. Some medications, like thyroid pills, need to be taken on an empty stomach while others, such as pain medications, should be taken with food. Some medications, like cholesterol lowering drugs, work best at night. A primary care provider or the pharmacist can help determine the best time for you to take a medication. Remembering when to take medications is best achieved when medications are taken no more than once or twice a day. Medications have a place in helping to keep a senior healthy and free from disability but they must be managed appropriately. To do this effectively, a partnership must exist between the senior and the primary care provider that takes the senior’s health goals into account.

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

SeniorsBlueBook.com

Families tell me that if they bring up end-of-life, their parent will think they want to “push them aside”. Spouses worry that even thinking about it will somehow hasten passing or cause their partner to pass sooner. The reality is, given the right opportunity, those living with illness often welcome the opportunity to share their preferences about their end-of-life choices. Listening without judgment to the individual’s worries or advice can be a gift to them. Researching what is available to help care for a family member living with advanced illness relieves the individual from having to do the work themselves; hospice care can help. People often wait too long before seeking hospice care. It seems that misinformation about the benefit coupled with our general discomfort talking about end of life prevents families from taking advantage of the valuable benefit of hospice care. The benefits for caregivers is that an important part of taking care of yourself is taking breaks. Your hos-

pice team will offer to have volunteers come and sit with the patient or help with chores to make things easier for you.

HOSPICE CARE

Is Hospice Underutilized?

Hospice offers bereavement services to caregivers and families for at least one year. These services can take a variety of forms, including telephone calls, visits, support groups, and written materials about grief. Pursuing the Hospice Benefit and accepting help from hospice can feel like a major change in how the person receiving care and their family considers the remaining time they have together. Caring for someone with serious illness and at the end of life is a daunting task, both mentally and physically. Having a dedicated, skilled, and caring hospice team of professionals to help you and your family in the end of life journey can make a difference in everyone’s well-being. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Shaw Phillips, Owner, Doctor’s Hospice.

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-on approach, as well as providing an alternative to those who can’t take medication or prefer not to, massage therapy has become essential in hospice care. This is not reimbursed by Medicare; it is an added benefit that select hospice companies have decided to provide for their patients.

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. 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

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.

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. ~

(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

INTERMEDIATE CARE – 24 hour inpatient care residents who need licensed nursing supervision and supportive care, but do not require continuous nursing care. Residents may receive full assistance with ADL’s and transfers. Residents receive meds from a nurse following a doctor’s orders and may receive outpatient rehab services. Facilities may use a nurse as a their consultant and the residents receive periodic assessments from a licensed practitioner. MEDICAID WAIVER – An assisted living waiver may be used to transition individuals out of nursing facilities or to provide persons at risk of institutionalization with options for remaining in their communities. Assisted living waivers are designed to provide an alternative to more costly nursing home care. PRICE DEPENDENT ON LEVELS OF CARE – Flexible levels of service geared to accommodate different needs over time. Rates may vary depending on the changing levels of care while one maintains the same physical residence. PUBLIC HOUSING (PH) – affordable apartments for low-income families, the elderly and persons with disabilities.

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

SENIOR HOUSING DEFINITIONS

INDEPENDENT HOUSING – Apartments and communities for adults 55+ with little or no senior support services (e.g. no meals, etc...)

SeniorsBlueBook.com

RESPITE CARE / SHORT-TERM STAY – Otherwise known as a shortterm stay. Any provider of IL, AL, ALZ or SNF care can elect to provide fully furnished accommodations to a person for a short period of time. Rates usually quoted on a daily basis and are typically inclusive of all services and amenities. RETIREMENT COMMUNITY – Housing designed specifically for mature adults. Typically Studio, 1 BR or 2 BR rental apartments with full kitchens, and private baths are available. Services include meal plans, transportation, housekeeping, laundry and maintenance. Amenities are usually abundant; formal libraries, computer stations, swimming pools, gardens, and other social gathering spaces. Rates are monthly, and are typically based on size/location of apartment. Continued on page 157 Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com 139
