Are you caring for your mom or dad? Your spouse? Our senior day care program is a great daytime solution for seniors who just need a little supervision or assistance throughout the day. We provide a fun and exciting environment with stimulating activities, medication reminders, transportation, meals and much more. Our services are focused on keeping our participants active and engaged through live music, fun activities, social interactions and healthy exercises. It is our goal to help them remain as independent as possible.

Also, it is important for caregivers to care for themselves. We provide a great respite care solution for families and caregivers that just need some time to run errands, visit with friends or take a little break. If you work full time and you want your loved one to be safe and engaged during the day, our senior day care program is the perfect solution for you.

What Are My Duties and Liabilities Under a Durable Power of Attorney If someone appointed you as their agent (a/k/a “attorney-in-fact”) under a Durable Power of Attorney, you should be aware of the legal responsibilities you are undertaking and the potential liability for your actions and inactions. A durable power of attorney is a legal document that allows you as the agent to manage money or property for the person who signed the document, who is called the principal. The basic duties of the agent are to act only in the principal’s best interest; manage the principal’s money and property carefully; keep the principal’s money and property separate from yours (no commingling); and maintain good records of all transactions you take as the principal’s agent. It may sound obvious, but you should thoroughly read the Durable Power of Attorney document. You can only exercise powers that are stated in the document. You should generally avoid transactions where a conflict of interest, such as one that benefits you financially at the expense of the principal, would

impair your ability to act impartially in the principal’s best interests. With the responsibility comes a certain degree of liability. As a fiduciary for the principal, you can be sued or have to repay money if you improperly misappropriate or embezzle the principal’s assets. The principal, the court, or another fiduciary acting for the principal can require you to disclose the records of your transactions undertaken as agent. Tip: make payments by check or credit card rather than cash. The paper trail and receipts will assist you in accounting for the transactions, if necessary. While you are not required to hire an attorney to advise you about acting as an agent or complying with the Florida Durable Power of Attorney Act, you should consider consulting with a lawyer about your role, responsibilities, and liabilities. Bach & Jacobs PA is a unique law firm, focusing on elder law and estate planning, and advising fiduciaries such as trustees, personal representatives, and agents acting under a Durable Power of Attorney.

SENIOR HOUSING DEFINITIONS

SENIOR HOUSING DEFINITIONS ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING (ADLs): Define the personal care services available in assisted living and include bathing, dressing, grooming, bathroom assistance, eating and ambulation. Medication Administration and transferring are not ADLs but are factors in determining a person’s level of functioning. ADULT DAY STAY PROGRAMS: There are two general types of adult day care programs. One is based on a medical model and the other on a social model. The medical model provides comprehensive medical, therapeutic, and rehabilitation day treatment. The social model offers supervised activities, peer support, companionship, and recreation. Both models assist older adults and those with chronic conditions to remain as independent as possible, for as long as possible. ASSISTED LIVING: Florida providers must be licensed with a Standard Assisted Living Facility License. Two additional licenses: the Limited Nursing Service (LNS) and the Extended Congregate Care (ECC) allow providers to deliver some skilled nursing services and more personal care. Communities are typically apartment-style with kitchenettes and private baths. Some offer companion accommodations. Amenities vary. Services include

meal plans, cable television, local phone, housekeeping, laundry, maintenance and transportation. Also provided is personal assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). Payor sources usually accepted are private pay, and some insurance.

CCRC/LIFECARE: Continuing Care Retirement Community otherwise known as Life Care, offers a campusstyle environment that may include villas, apartments or condos, assisted living and skilled nursing services. A large endowment fee is usually required that entitles residents to use assisted or skilled services when needed throughout their lifetime. Residents “purchase” their villa or condo and then pay monthly maintenance fees. Payor sources accepted are private pay in villas/apartments/condos and some insurance plans in AL. See SNF for payor sources. EXTENDED CONGREGATE CARE (ECC) – An ALF with this license can provide extended congregate care services. An ALF with ECC beds may keep residents who become frailer than would normally be permitted in order for the resident to age in place. For example the facility can provide total help with bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting, and can provide or arrange for rehabilitative services, along with other services. However, this does not include 24hour nursing services.

IT’S A LOVELY PLACE TO RETIRE

ASTON GARDENS

ne zi

Rose Saperstein was born and raised in the sprawling metropolis of New York City but found that the small-town life was more her speed, which she learned when she moved with her husband to Walton, New York, to start a business in the 1940s. Despite growing up in the urban jungle, Rose found herself charmed by Walton’s earnest, Anytown, USA appeal. “I loved just going downtown and walking, greeting people and saying hello,” Rose recalls. “I’m a people person and I’d never had an experience like it.” That is until she came to Aston Gardens.

Rose Sapers

tein

Rose’s husband had passed away more than a decade ago, and she had remained resolute about living on her own for quite a while. She had lived in the Venice area for some time, and a friend had spent three years trying to convince her to make the move to Aston Gardens. She finally did in the summer of 2016. “I always tell people that living here is as close to Utopia as you get,” Rose says. “It’s a lovely place to retire. I love meeting new people when I go downstairs. The sociability of this place is one of its very best features. There’s no cooking unless you want to, no cleaning, we’re fed beautifully at night, and the young people in the dining room are well trained and the nicest kids you’ll ever want to meet.” Rose offers one bit of advice for newcomers to the community: “If you come in with an open mind and the ability to try and be comfortable, you’re going to love it!”

AVIVA: A CAMPUS FOR SENIOR LIFE

Dolly was ready to move to a senior lifestyle campus after living happily in The Meadows for 25 years. She wanted to stay in the neighborhood where she could easily visit her many friends, play golf and go to “Pasta Night” at The Meadows Country Club. She knew that Aviva — A Campus for Senior Life would be the best fit for her. Nestled in The Meadows neighborhood, Aviva is at the center of it all but without all of the traffic! For Dolly, the ability to maintain her lifestyle and cost value are the biggest selling points in senior living. “Unlike other communities that offer the continuum of care, I have peace of mind knowing that Aviva is a rental community requiring no big entrance fee to move in.” With the help of her realtors and Aviva’s staff, Dolly’s move to Kobernick Independent Living at Aviva was easy and stress-free. She quickly made new friends and experiences through Aviva’s life enrichment program and has maintained her strong social life in The Meadows. Before making her move to Aviva, Dolly was excited to learn that the campus provides enriching activities to sustain a healthy, happy lifestyle. “There are many opportunities to be socially and physically active,” said Dolly. “I often take a dip in the heated swimming pool and I use the state-of-the-art gym every day. Aviva’s on-staff personal trainer has helped me learn new ways to improve my balance and I plan on joining the Shakespeare Club.” Dolly emphasizes the importance of planning to move to a senior campus while you are healthy, active and able to enjoy the lifestyle. “I will be 89 this year and I am so happy to be here. Everyone welcomes you with open arms; just like family. I enjoy eating dinner in the fine dining room with my new friends and neighbors. The food is great but I can honestly say that the conversation is even better!”

Transportation and transition have always been a big part of Jalone “Jaye” Pitts’ life. Jaye and her husband Bill, moved to Discovery Village last November. “What I like most are the activities. We’re always busy. We go to movies in the evenings, exercise classes every day, and play card games, bingo, and do puzzles in between. It’s a great way to keep our bodies in shape and strong, and our minds sharp,” says Jaye.

Jaye Pitts

Jaye’s first experience with transportation came when she signed on with Pan-American Airlines in 1954 as a stewardess. Her sense of adventure soon had her flying to Central and South America as well as the Caribbean.

WHAT I LIKE MOST IS THE ACTIVITIES!

Transition came for Jaye in 1960 when she married her husband Bill. Jaye and her husband moved to Connecticut and opened a pair of real estate businesses. Both partnerships lasted 21 years until her husband passed away, at which point Jaye transported herself home to Florida and transitioned into a role as a real estate agent. Jaye remained single until three years ago when she married Bill, a longtime acquaintance who knew a thing or two about flying himself, having served 21 years as a pilot and navigator in the United States Air Force. “The transportation is amazing here,” Jaye says. “They take us to bookstores and the doctor. They bring pets in from llamas to dogs. They take us on picnics that are fun because it’s an out-of-the-ordinary thing. They also do a lot of things for veterans. When you’ve been around the world a time or three, it’s the little things that make the difference.”
