GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - FALL 2022 - WINTER 2023
The Importance of Vaccines In 2020, COVID-19 changed our lives and how we view vaccines. Today, more Americans have received their initial vaccines and are following up with regularly scheduled booster shots than ever before. But COVID vaccines aren’t the only type you should be considering this fall.
Flu Vaccines Every year, more than 10% of Americans catch the flu. Each flu season is different, and each flu strain can affect people differently. That’s why it’s important to get the vaccine each year to protect yourself and loved ones from illness. The flu vaccine has been shown to have many benefits including reduced risk of illness, hospitalization, and even flurelated death. In 2019-2020 alone, the flu vaccine prevented an estimated 7.5 million flu illnesses and an estimated 105,000 flurelated hospitalizations. Pneumonia Shots Seniors should also consider receiving a Pneumonia shot. In the US, more than 250,000 individuals are hospitalized annually for pneumonia, and approximately 50,000 of those hospitalizations result in death. Adults aged 65 years or older are at a higher risk of catching bacterial pneumonia, as well as people with certain conditions including diabetes and chronic heart diseases. Pneumonia vaccines are shown to be highly
effective at protecting against and reducing symptoms of the disease. Shingles Another vaccination that may go overlooked by seniors is the Shingles vaccine. Shingles is a painful rash caused by the same virus that may have affected people as a child--the chicken pox. The CDC recommends that adults aged 50 and older receive two doses of the vaccine to prevent occurrence of the disease. In fact, the vaccines have been shown to be up to 97% effective in adults aged 50 to 69 and 91% effective in seniors over 70.
Vaccinations help protect us from harmful diseases while lessening the impact of symptoms. They also aid in recovery time. Depending upon your insurance coverage they may even be low cost or no-cost to you. With many pharmacies and grocery stores offering them regularly they’re easy to get. So, what’s holding you back? Talk to your pharmacist or other healthcare professional today about getting vaccinated. Editor’s Note: This article was written by Jay Pagni.

Pain not only impacts the ability to carry out day-to-day tasks and activities, it also steals time spent with friends and family, potentially leading to social isolation and depression. If this sounds like you or someone you love, it’s time to take back what chronic pain has taken away. That’s why the Arthritis Foundation is proud to introduce its new Vim app: the latest tool to help you fight against chronic pain. A word defined by energy and enthusiasm, Vim is an all—in—one
resource to help you reach your personal pain management goals — whether it’s running a 5K or walking around the block. Inside the app, you’ll have free access to a library of expert educational resources to help you live a fuller life, including podcasts, videos, recipes, exercises, and more. Vim also provides a network of community support from others living with arthritis — for emotional support and motivation as you achieve your personal goals. And with Vim, keeping a pain diary has never been more convenient. Your doctor will find it useful in updating your treatment plan. Download the Vim app at Google Play or the Apple App Store by searching “Vim Arthritis” or “Vim Pain”.

Wandering is one of the most dangerous and scary issues associated with dementia. You can decrease the chances of wandering by focusing on triggers and creating a safe environment. This can mean less stress, anxiety and fear for all. Facts about wandering: • It can happen in ANY stage of the disease. • A person who has wandered once is at increased risk for it to happen again. • The best wandering prevention is before a wandering incident ever occurs. Causes, Triggers and Warning Signs for Wandering: • Boredom, restlessness and a lack of physical activity. • Frustration or anger with their caregiver, feeling the need to “get away” from them. • Feeling that they need to “get home” though they are home. • Not being able to find someone, something, or someplace. • Trouble finding the bathroom and opening an exterior door. • Delirium or confusion from a UTI or dehydration. • A move to a new, unfamiliar location. • A person who is high energy and constantly moving.
Wandering Prevention: • Physical and mental activities throughout the day to prevent that bored and restless feeling. • Be positive and reassuring so that you are not the reason they want to leave. • If they say, “I want to go home,” be comforting and reassuring rather than telling them that they are home. • Don’t leave them alone. • Be sure their bodily needs are met – Are they hungry or thirsty? Do they need to use the toilet? • Increase lighting. A shadowy house can feel unfamiliar. • Put bathroom signs on the bathroom door. • Put stop signs on the front door or cover them with a camouflage poster. • Install barriers and alarms on doors and windows. • Get a wearable GPS device. • Let your neighbors know your family member is a wandering risk.

It’s OK to Hug Your Elder Law Attorney If I asked you to think of a mental image of a lawyer, you would probably see a cold-hearted, calculated, robot in a suit who wants to argue at the drop of a dime. Elder law doesn’t work that way. One of our primary goals is to help our senior clients find the care they need without going broke in the process. A typical client is someone who is already in a nursing home and is quickly burning through their assets. We employ strategies to help protect your home and savings while gaining access to the government healthcare programs you’ve been paying into your whole life. The government has very complex rules for eligibility for programs like Medicaid, which can pay for long-term care expenses. Some of the rules are harsh (heard of the 5-year lookback period?). Some of the rules are great (you can use trusts and annuities to protect assets). The trick is to know which rules hurt and which rules help. Then we make the rules work to protect our clients. Simple at a high level; complicated in the details. A nursing home admission is a legal problem and you should seek legal advice. Nursing homes cost almost $15,000 per month in Pennsylvania and the government
doesn’t help until you go broke. It is not uncommon for elder law attorneys to protect up to 90% of a family’s savings, even after a nursing home admission. And when we get those kinds of results for a client, yes, they frequently want to give us a hug, and that’s just fine by us. You shouldn’t be nervous or intimidated about calling a lawyer. We’re here to help. If you want more information about how the Medicaid process works give us a call 724-564-6615. Our firm has provided a complimentary guide that you can download.

John recently attended one of our Elder Law workshops. At the beginning of the workshop, he asked one of the most common questions we get: “Should I use a will or a trust in my estate plan?”. It’s a good question and one you should be asking yourself. There was a time when most middle-class people used wills. Trusts were reserved for the rich and famous. Those times are long gone. See, it used to be the case that trusts were primarily used by wealthy people to avoid taxes and administrative headaches. Those are still great reasons for wealthy people to do trust planning. But what about the Middle Class? At the Sechler Law Firm, we frequently recommend using trusts for a very specific reason: we want to protect our clients from nursing home costs. Consider the following: • One-third of seniors will develop dementia. • Two-thirds of seniors will need long-term care. • The average monthly cost of a nursing home is almost $15,000 per month.
• The average nursing home stay exceeds two years. When we are meeting with our retired (or soon to be retired) clients, our job is to help them understand what issues could upend their retirement plans. The answer is almost always the risk of one of them getting sick. Simply stated, Asset Protection Trusts are the best way for most people to protect their home and savings from the crazy government rules that require you to go broke if you get sick. John was asking the right question. The answer for him was to plan with a trust to protect his house. What’s your answer for long-term care costs?

3 Reasons Why Single Folks With No Children Need An Estate Plan As more young adults opt for nontraditional lifestyles, the number of single childless households is likely to steadily increase in the coming years.
It is very important to have an estate plan if you are single and childless. Consider these three inconvenient truths before you decide to forego estate planning: 1. Someone Will Have to Handle Your Stuff In the event of your death, everything you own will need to be located, managed, and passed on to someone, which can be a massive undertaking. Without a clear estate plan, including a will or trust, your assets will go through the court process of probate, where a judge and state law will decide who gets everything you own. In the event no family steps forward, your assets will become property of the state. If you have little financial wealth, you may own sentimental items, that you’d like to pass to a close friend or favorite charity. If your estate contains significant wealth and assets, this could lead to a costly and contentious court battle, with all of your relatives hiring expensive lawyers to fight over your estate. 2. Someone Will Have Power Over Your Healthcare Some of the most critical aspects of estate planning have nothing to

do with your money at all, but are aimed at protecting you while you’re alive. If you are single with no kids, you need to create an estate plan in order to name healthcare decision maker for yourself and provide instructions on how you want those decisions made should you ever become incapacitated and unable to make those decisions yourself. This estate planning tool is a medical power of attorney. 3. Someone Will Get Power Over Your Finances As with healthcare decisions, if you become incapacitated and haven’t legally named someone to handle your finances while you’re unable to do so, the court will pick someone for you. Avoid this by granting someone durable financial power of attorney, which gives the person you choose the immediate authority to manage your financial, legal, and business affairs if you’re incapacitated. This agent will have power to handle things like paying your bills and taxes, running your business, collecting your Social Security benefits, selling your home, and managing your banking and investment accounts.

Protecting Social Security Payout With more than 5 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s, planning for the possibility of long-term care, and considering who will make decisions if you can’t, is not just smart, it’s necessary. PROTECTING YOURSELF While you may think creating legal documents that grant authority for someone to act on your behalf, financially or even medically, will be enough to protect your wishes, usually more is required. When it comes to handling Social Security payments for a disabled senior, establishing powers of attorney, medical directives or guardianship arrangements are not enough. The Social Security Administration (SSA) requires a special designation known as representative payee. A representative payee is someone who acts on behalf of another person who is incapable of representing themselves and is responsible for directing payouts exclusively to meet a beneficiary’s needs. The SSA may determine that an individual is incapable of managing or directing someone else to manage his or her benefits and would then appoint a representative payee. Generally, a family member or friend serves as representative
payee. If friends or family are not able to serve as payees, the SSA will look for qualified organizations to be representative payees. A critical thing to keep in mind about the responsibilities of acting as a representative payee is that the permissions that accompany the role do not extend to other facets of your affairs. Making medical decisions or signing legal documents on your behalf will still require that someone be granted powers of attorney or guardianship. PROTECTING A LOVED ONE If you assume the role of representative payee, this will likely require a trip to a Social Security office and a completed SSA-11 form explaining why the beneficiary needs assistance and why they have selected you for the job. Recall, too, that this designation will be in addition to any other legal or medical role you might be playing for your loved one. It’s one piece of the larger whole that, with forethought and planning, can help ensure your loved one’s – or your own – future is secure. Editors Note: This article was submitted by Erin Weber.

For seniors who are ready to downsize, or for those who need more care than can affordably be provided at home, a senior living community can be an excellent choice. Independent living communities offer social activities, meals, and the security of knowing help is nearby. Assisted living and memory care communities do the same, but also provide the care ailing seniors need to live as independently as possible. If you or a loved one is struggling with whether it’s time to move, consider the following. RED FLAGS Immediate action is needed. • Wandering. People with dementia may get lost in familiar surroundings or they may set out for a location from their past. They are at significant risk if they are alone. • Frequent falls. Injury from a fall often marks the beginning of a steep decline in physical and mental health. • Drastic weight loss. Weight loss may be due to a medical condition, self-neglect, or simply not eating enough because it’s too difficult to shop and/or prepare meals adequately. • Inconsistency taking medications. Confusion and forgetfulness can lead to under- or
over-medicating, resulting in falls, overdoses, or poorly controlled medical conditions. • Self-neglect. Self-neglect shows up as very poor personal hygiene, unkempt appearance, malnutrition and/or dehydration, squalid or unsanitary living conditions, and/or hoarding. ELLOW FLAGS Y A move should be considered. • Isolation. Studies have shown that socialization and mental stimulation are key components to healthy aging. • Increased forgetfulness or confusion. These can lead to a senior leaving the stove on, forgetting, or doubling up on medications, and vulnerability to financial predators. • Caregiver burnout/declining health. Caregiving is emotionally and physically stressful. If a caregiver feels burned out or has health issues of their own, a “Plan B” should be put in place. • Loss of driver’s license. Giving up a driver’s license is easier when there are alternatives. A senior living community may provide transportation to local businesses and doctors’ appointments.

LIFE Programs (PACE) enhance the ability of seniors to live in their own homes through high-quality and comprehensive services. They are a community-based alternative to nursing homes and personal care/assisted living, providing in-home care to those whose health limits their independence. What care is provided? • Primary, preventative, and emergency care • Vision, dental, foot, and hearing care • Access to on-call emergency assistance from doctor/nurse 24/7 • Prescription drugs and home delivery • Assistance with dressing, bathing, grooming and other daily activities • Homemaker and chore services • Transportation to and from medical appointments • Behavioral healthcare and counseling • Specialists • In-home skilled care • Skilled nursing care • Physical, occupational, and speech therapy • Medical supplies and equipment • Nutritional counseling • Medical imaging • Laboratory services • Continual and comprehensive medical evaluations
How much does this cost? If your gross monthly income is less than $2,523 and you have less than $8,000 in assets (excluding one house and one car), the program would be paid for you by the State and Federal government. This includes medications and medical equipment. If you answer Yes to any of these questions, a LIFE Program may be an option for you: • Are you 55 years or older? • Do you need assistance with your daily activities, like bathing, dressing, grooming? • Are you having difficulty with managing your medications? • Do you need assistance with basic housekeeping, laundry, or cleaning? • Have you noticed significant weight gain/loss in the last few months? • Do you have difficulty with walking, balance, endurance, or flexibility? • Do you see several specialists and doctors and have difficulty making those appointments? • Have you recently fallen? • Could you benefit from ongoing physical, occupational, or speech therapies?

Determining Medicare Health Costs in Retirement
As we approach retirement, one of the greatest concerns is determining the cost of health care, which will likely be your biggest expense during the golden years. Obviously, these costs are a tough number to nail down and one that will vary by person. Since 1966, the government’s Medicare program, also known as Medicare Part A and Part B, has helped millions of Americans obtain health care. It includes coverage at the hospital (known as Medicare Part A) and at the doctor’s office (known as Medicare Part B). Most people don’t pay a premium for Medicare Part A, which covers hospital visits. But you will pay monthly premiums for Part B (doctor services and outpatient care), Part D (prescription drugs), and supplemental coverage which may cover the cost for deductibles, co-pays and medications. Some of these premiums may be deducted from your Social Security checks. The premium for Part B is tied to inflation. You may have to pay more if you do not receive Social Security because you receive a government pension, or if your annual income is more than $85,000. The premiums for Part D and supplemental insurance are
set by your provider and vary by plan and by where you live. You can expect these to take up a big chunk of your expenses and are big drivers of rising health care costs. You’ll still have to pay for some expenses out of pocket. Medicare doesn’t cover things like longterm care, or dental and vision insurance. Studies show that Medicare patients’ satisfaction with their coverage depends on whether they were enrolled in traditional Medicare supplemental plans or in Medicare Advantage plans that are offered by private insurance companies. People with Medicare Advantage plans also were more likely to have trouble affording their medical care than those with traditional Medicare. Health care costs are a major concern in retirement and should be an integral part of your retirement planning. The role of a Licensed Medicare Advisor is to advise those approaching retirement to understand Medicare coverage and the affordability of comprehensive coverage.

Holiday Tips for Senior Travel With the holidays approaching, if your senior loved one wants to travel, get them where they need to go safely, and with minimal stress. Below are a few tips to make holiday travel a seamless process that will keep them comfortable, relaxed and arriving at their destination with ease. Prepare documents and medications When booking flights, get as much information as possible. Having an informational packet put together will help everyone know what to expect and feel prepared. Your packet should include: • Flight departure / arrival times • Transportation options to and from the airport • Terminal maps and gate locations • Medication regulations and necessary documents • TSA safety check process Look through the TSA website to learn about which medications are allowed and how to communicate with an officer about medically necessary bottles or containers. Request copies of prescriptions and statements of medical conditions from each physician and medical center for verification. Make photocopies of passports, driver’s license, insurance cards, travel tickets and the trip’s itinerary provides a backup in case of any unforeseen emergencies. Many seniors no longer have a driver’s GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - FALL 2022 - WINTER 2023
license, which can present a problem when going through airport security. Be sure that the individual has state ID, military ID, passport, or similar credential. Keep one set of copies with you, place a set of the documents in your senior’s carryon bag and forward a set of the documents to the destination. Consider insurance When traveling, seniors are at greatest risk of being in need of a health care emergency. The right insurance package for one’s age group can protect their health and give you peace of mind. Health Insurance: If traveling within the United States, be sure to look up what hospitals accept your health insurance and if there is coverage during travel. If going abroad, look at buying a travel medical plan or vacation plan that includes medical emergencies. Trip Insurance: There are a few different options when choosing trip insurance. For seniors, there can be unexpected delays due to appointments, or medical clearance delays. Therefore, it is ideal that trip cancellation protection is provided. If your loved one is nervous about the upcoming trip, let them vent and answer their concerns. Be calm and optimistic. Remember that all of this preparation is worthwhile.

GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - FALL 2022 - WINTER 2023
Choosing to get additional in-home support for yourself or a loved one is an important decision. In some cases, a physician may recommend certain services that can be received at home following a fall, surgery, or an illness. But in other cases, the need for in-home care may not be as clear. How do you know if the time is right to get some additional support in your home? 1. Is family support or a support network readily available? If not, this is one clue for the need for additional care. 2. Does you or your loved one have freedom of mobility being able to ambulate indoors and outdoors without falling? Is getting into/out of bed, climbing stairs, or negotiating the shower/tub a concern? 3. Is the person able to drive safely? Do they drive at all? 4. Does the loved one still have a capable memory and is able to perform tasks such as remembering to take medication, turn off a stove burner, and lock doors? 5. Is this person able to follow complex medical directions such as taking vital signs, or following a prescription regimen without supervision?
6. Can the loved one shop for themselves, stocking the home with healthy groceries, and then able to prepare these consistently? 7. Is this person able to pay attention to personal hygiene as well as do their own laundry including clothes, towels, and bedlinens? 8. Does the loved one’s home offer a safe environment for living and socializing? Do they keep it clean, well heated and cooled, and free from pests. Is the home free from clutter and hazards (loose rugs, exposed wiring, slippery tile, uneven surfaces, etc.), and would they know what to do in the case of an emergency?
HEALTH AT HOME - NON MEDICAL HOME CARE
Is Home Care Right for Me?
9. Are the levels of social interaction what they were 5 years ago? The points mentioned above should give you a starting point to think about in-home care and then have an appropriate conversation with your loved one. It might be urgent if the points above are not being accomplished, or it might be beneficial if the points are not consistently being accomplished.

Dementia and Staging
The Alzheimer’s Association uses a three stage approach for classification of dementia, including mild, moderate, and severe. Understanding these varying stages can make it easier to provide support, know what to anticipate, and prevent caregiver burnout.
In dementia’s mild or early stage, most people can do things for themselves, are able to drive, and participate in favorite activities. However, they may require assistance with some activities and cues or reminders for keeping appointments or remembering words and names. They may also need help maintaining familiar routines, managing household bills, grocery shopping, or preparing full meals. Fluctuations often start early and happen throughout all stages. The moderate or middle stage of dementia is usually accompanied by difficulty with immediate recall, logic, situational memory, language, and organization. New daily care needs may arise when routine isn’t enough. An individual may have more difficulty starting and completing tasks in order. There may also be more repeated comments or questions about the situation. They may experience confusion, depression, anxiety, agitation, irritability, suspiciousness, and repetitive behaviors. Sleep changes, physical and verbal outbursts, and wandering may occur. Loss of independence and privacy can be
difficult. Instead of taking over, it may be beneficial to ask for their help or present steps in order with visual cues and participation praise. The severe or late stage is characterized by declines in environmental response, conversational skills, and movement control. Because of motor memory damage, most time will be spent resting. The person’s immune system may weaken as the brain can shrink to 1/3 of its original size. Automatic movements like swallowing and eating can be challenging, and liquid can build in lungs. Infections or skin breakdown may result from poor nutrition. Repositioning, slow muscle movements, singing, playing music, or saying prayers may bring comfort and relaxation. Caregivers must read facial expressions, body language, and sounds to detect pain or discomfort due to a lack of communication. Dementia progresses differently for each individual, and their ability to function varies from week to week and day to day. Staging helps determine how much help and what kind of help loved ones may need. It’s important to observe subtle changes and patterns and remain flexible as solutions may need to be adapted.

Watching your parents age can be heart wrenching. Whether they are struggling physically, mentally, or emotionally, it may be harder to navigate than you think. Imagine how frustrating – and scary – it must be.
5. PATIENCE IS KEY. The best way to handle the inevitable vulnerability your parents will feel is with patience. Their reactions may be masked as avoidance or anger. Your patience will help them make practical decisions.
The best way to support your parents is to have a calm, thought-out conversation although they may be resistant. They may have ideas and plans that they haven’t shared with you yet. With empathy and compassion, you can help them prepare for their next chapter. Here are some tips to get started:
6. CONSULT A PROFESSIONAL. There are many resources and community programs to support you and your parents, whether they opt to “age in place” or move to a more supervised environment. Familiarize yourself with local options so you can navigate the conversation with suggestions.
1. D ON’T PROCRASTINATE. These are conversations to have when everyone is relaxed, rather than when faced with a medical emergency.
BONUS TIP! 7. Some opening lines to get the conversation started:
2. E NLIST SUPPORT FROM YOUR FAMILY. By getting your siblings and other family/friends involved, you may have a clearer picture of what kind of assistance your parents need most. 3. SET THE STAGE. This is not a conversation to have over the phone. Pick a time and place where your parents will be relaxed and open to a productive conversation. 4. S TART SMALL. Every topic should not be discussed – or resolved – in this first conversation. If your parents see you as a partner in these decisions rather than an authority figure, it will be an easier.

6 Tips To Start “That” Conversation with Your Aging Parents
“One of my friends was telling me about [an emergency] they just had with their [mother/father] – and how they wish they had discussed options before this crisis. It occurred to me that maybe I should be asking you those questions now.” “How are you feeling about living alone? Have you ever thought about getting some help with housekeeping or errands? “I’ve noticed that sometimes you sound lonely. Would you like to spend time with people your own age?” Editors note: This article was written by Patty Toner, Director of Marketing with the Seniors Blue Book Greater Pittsburgh.

This is not reimbursed by Medicare. P-PET THERAPY – There’s nothing like a visit from a four-legged creature to brighten the day of a terminally ill patient.

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.
A-AROMA THERAPY – 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.

MA-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.
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 hospice companies provide Grief Groups that meet and address issues of grief in a supportive group setting.
MU-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.

Many have a non-profit organization that can help support the care of non-covered 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.
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.

HOSPICE CARE
Grief may not be a comfortable topic, yet it is something we all experience. Below are two definitions for grief: GRIEF: 1. normal and natural reaction to loss or change of any kind; 2. the conflicting feelings caused by the end of or change in a familiar pattern of behavior. Many believe that grief occurs only when a loved one dies, and don’t realize that there are over 40 life experiences that can result in a grief response. Here are a few of those losses: Death, Divorce, Empty Nesting, Job Change/Job Loss/Retirement, Financial Changes, Health, Aging, Moving. Grief in aging is very normal as we may experience health concerns, change in living arrangements, dependency on others, memory loss, or the inability to perform tasks once completed with ease. Along with these changes, seniors may feel they are no longer valued for their accomplishments and therefore grieve the feelings of no longer being respected or recognized. The four-star general wants to continue to be honored for his/her service, the college professor’s impact on thousands of students is not to be forgotten no matter how many years he/she has been retired. Adult children of aging parents
may find themselves grieving, as well. What reason is there to grieve? It is after all the natural progression of life. Aging parents is a BIG change in the familiar. There comes a time when the roles shift and we become the caregivers, decision makers, money manager, etc. We grieve the parents who raised us, the parents who were once agile, and sharp. Whether you are a senior or the adult child of an aging parent, be gentle with yourself as you navigate these significant changes.
HOSPICE CARE
The Experience of Grief
Give yourself permission to feel those feelings of concern, sadness, fear, frustration, etc. Grief is the normal response to a change or end in a familiar pattern of behavior. Let’s cease using the following platitudes: Don’t Feel Bad, Be Strong, Keep Busy, Time Heals, At Least (fill in the blank), I Know How You Feel, and just be present for ourselves and the grievers in our lives.

8 Ways for Seniors to Feel Fit and Fabulous Fitness is important for all ages and is one of the best tools to help combat chronic diseases. Even a single session of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity can boost your mood, sharpen your focus, reduce stress, and improve sleep.
When it comes to senior health specifically, doctors recommend getting at least 2.5 hours of moderate exercise every week, which averages out to about 30 minutes a day. Research shows we need four specific types of exercises: endurance, strength, balance, and flexibility. We created a list of activities that check off all four categories. As with any new fitness routine, be sure to consult with your doctor before trying these exercises. Walking: Experts agree that walking is probably the best exercise for seniors, as it’s one of the most accessible ways to get your heart pumping. For many, a goal of 10,000 steps per day is advised. Start tracking the number of steps that feels comfortable and work toward increasing that number over time. Dumbbell Strength Training: Dumbbell exercises are some of the best ways to strength train. Holding dumbbells in each hand allows you to isolate and strengthen specific muscle groups that can help with improving balance and flexibility. Resistance Band Workouts: Resistance bands are stretchy strips of GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - FALL 2022 - WINTER 2023
lightweight rubber that add resistance to a workout with reduced stress on your body. Bodyweight Workouts: Bodyweight workouts are a great way to build strength and counteract the effects of muscle atrophy as we get older. Chair Yoga: Chair yoga is a style of yoga that doesn’t put as much stress on muscles, joints, and bones as more conventional forms of yoga. It’s performed seated in a chair and consists of low-impact poses, gentle stretching, and breathwork. The intended outcome is improved muscle strength, mobility, balance, and flexibility. Pilates: Pilates is a popular low-impact form of exercise developed over a century ago. It concentrates on strengthening the body with an emphasis on core strength. Similar to yoga, pilates focuses on posture, balance, and flexibility. Dancing: Moving to the rhythm of music can be an extremely satisfying activity. It’s also highly beneficial as it helps you burn calories, build muscle, and enhance your flexibility and endurance. Gardening & Yard Games: Gardening is a great way to get fresh air, sunshine, and vitamin D. Plus, the added benefit of enjoying the nutritious fruits of your labor.

4 Ways Seniors Can Prepare for a Successful Retirement Retirement is something everyone dreams of. However, as you near the age of retirement there are a few things you should do to prepare. Here are some ways to ensure you have the best retirement possible! SET GOALS Creating goals can help you get a better vision of your future during retirement. Try to set at least 3-5 realistic goals. What kind of lifestyle you want and who you want to be around? Do you want to spend more time with family and friends? Get involved in the community? Take some time to travel? Then get more specific. For instance, if you want to travel, think about where you want to go and how long you want to stay there. Do you want to travel internationally? Go somewhere warm? EVALUATE YOUR FINANCES An essential part of having a successful retirement is having enough money saved up for when you aren’t working. At the start of your career, you probably enrolled in your company’s 401(k) program or opened a similar account to prepare for retirement. While these will probably have you covered, it’s smart to evaluate your current financial situation to ensure you have enough money saved. Once you know what your income will be during retirement, create a budget to live off of. If you have
154
debt, make a plan to pay it off before you retire. Remember, it’ll be much harder to tackle debt payments without your normal income from work; it’s best to be proactive! FOCUS ON YOUR HEALTH Being healthy will make retirement much more enjoyable and will allow you the freedom to do whatever you want! Be proactive and schedule preventative checkups with your doctor so you can make a plan to improve your health or get treatment for any serious conditions. You should also continue to stay active and exercise regularly to maintain your muscle and bone strength. Eat a healthy diet, get enough sleep, and focus on your mental health so you’re ready for this lifestyle change! CONSIDER YOUR OPTIONS Think about your retirement goals and where you envision yourself later in life. Moving into an independent living community might be the right choice for you! In these communities, you can meet new people, participate in social events, and have access to luxurious amenities (like room service, fitness centers, gourmet chefs, and more!).

INDEPENDENT / RETIREMENT COMMUNITIES
Ingredients • 2 large avocados chilled • 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk • 1/3 cup raw cacao powder Optional Toppings • hazelnuts roughly chopped
INDEPENDENT / RETIREMENT COMMUNITIES
Chocolate Avocado Pudding Recipe • 1/3 cup maple syrup • 2 tsp vanilla extract
• sea salt
Instructions 1. Slice avocados in half and remove the pit. 2. Scoop out the flesh into a food processor. 3. Add the remaining ingredients. 4. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. 5. Test and see if you’d like to add any additional sweetener. 6. Divide the chocolate avocado pudding into four serving bowls. 7. Serve with your favorite toppings such as hazelnuts or sea salt. The HASS Avocado Board supports nutrient research suggesting one avocado a day increases lutein levels. Lutein is one of two major carotenoids found in the human eye, the macula & the retina. Higher lutein levels improve the macula, retina, cognitive performance, skin, joint, and cellular health in older adults.
