Advance Medical Advance directives are written Directives instructions relating to medical care for an incapacitated person. Estate planning is not just about planning for after death; it is also about planning for who will make medical and financial decisions in the event of incapacity and explaining a person’s end of life wishes. A medical power of attorney is signed to appoint an “agent” to make health care decisions in the event that a person is unable to make his or her own medical decisions. Without a valid medical power of attorney, if a person becomes incapacitated the family may need to go to court to establish a guardianship. In a guardianship hearing, the court determines who will be in charge of medical decisions. If there is a disagreement in the family about who should be in charge, this process can be very expensive and difficult for the family. A living will directs when life sustaining treatment, artificial nutrition, and artificial hydration should be withdrawn. If two doctors state that a person has an incurable or irreversible condition or is in a persistent vegetative state and lacks decision-making capacity, that person can let their loved ones know if or when they wish for medi-

cal services to be stopped. In addition, a HIPAA release is necessary to ensure that medical information is released to both medical and financial decision makers. A seriously ill person or someone who is already in a nursing facility may also speak to their physician about a Medical Orders for Scope of Treatment (MOST) form, which is designed to summarize a person’s wishes. The bottom line is that planning ahead by executing advanced directives will save you and your family time, expense, and conflict. When there is a medical crisis, the last thing that the family needs is an argument about who is in charge and the course of treatment that should be followed.

New Colorado Law for Mandatory Reporting of The Colorado law now has mandatory reporting requirements so that Elder Abuse at-risk elders are afforded more protection. (C.R.S. 18-6.5-108) On July 1, 2014, mandatory reporting of abuse or exploitation of at-risk elders began.

An at-risk elder is any person who is age 70 or older. Abuse includes all forms of abuse, neglect, self-neglect. Exploitation occurs when a person uses deception, harassment, intimidation, or undue influence to permanently or temporarily deprive an elder of the use, benefit or possession of their money, assets, property, or any other thing of value. The law provides that when certain persons observe abuse or exploitation or if they have reasonable cause to believe that the elder has been abused or exploited, or even if they believe there is an imminent risk of abuse or exploitation, that person is required to make a report to a law

enforcement agency within 24 hours of the observation or discovery. There are penalties for those persons that fail to report. The list of “mandatory reporters” includes: medical and mental health professional, social workers, dentists, chiropractors, law enforcement officials, guardians, conservators, clergy (with some exceptions), caretakers, home health providers, professionals associated with care facilities, personnel at banks or financial institutions, fire protection personnel, pharmacists, and many others. These professionals, whether paid or unpaid, must report the abuse or exploitation to law enforcement or risk being charged with a misdemeanor.

new colorado Law for Mandatory Reporting of elder Abuse continued required if the person knows that another person has already reported the abuse or exploitation. Law enforcement must notify the county department and the district attorney’s office within 24 hours of the report and shall complete a criminal investigation when appropriate. Immunity from suit and liability for damages is given to the person making the good faith report, except that no immunity is given to the alleged perpetrator. Atrisk elders now have more protection because many people are required to make a report to law enforcement. The days of “looking the other way,” “minding your own business” or assuming that someone else is reporting the abuse or exploitation are now gone. A mandatory report-

er that observes or has reasonable cause to believe that an elder has been abused or exploited is required make a report within 24 hours.

As an alternative to traditional burial, funeral, or cremation, whole body donation for medical research, education and training offers the chance to make a contribution that benefits others. You can help advance medicine and improve the quality of life for patients today and in the future. Most will meet the criteria for donation, including those with cancer, heart disease, arthritis and diabetes. Pre-registration is usually not required though you should check with the specific program you are considering. Plus, you can often be both a whole body donor and an organ donor. A life-affirming choice, donation is

also a highly individual decision. It is important to research the program that best fits your needs and wishes. Typically the program provides cremation and the filing of the death certificate at no cost. A few areas in which whole body donors contribute to medical advances: n n n n n n n

C) are not the same as Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans. Even though most people don’t understand the differences, they are very different kinds of insurance. As such, the rules that the beneficiary must follow to receive health care are also very different. Make sure you understand these differences before enrolling.

If original Medicare (Parts A & B) is your primary insurance, you are not restricted by HMO or PPO networks for your medical care. Without referrals, you may see any doctor or provider within the U.S. that agrees to see you.

Sometimes you can shift drug coverage from Part D to Part B. If you are using insulin, pain medication, or certain inhalers (which can all be pricy, even under Part D), the same active ingredients may be available for use in insulin pumps, pain pumps or nebulizers. These devices are considered Durable Medicare Equipment (DME); therefore, the equipment, as well as the medications administered through the equipment, are covered under Part B, which in many cases will result in substantially lower out of pocket costs for the beneficiary.

Talk to your doctor to see if this is an option for you.

Medicare Supplement (Medigap) carriers are still allowed to deny coverage due to pre-existing conditions, even with the ACA becoming law. This is one of the most misunderstood aspects of the ACA (Obamacare). When you apply for a Medigap policy outside of being new to Medicare (or recently turning 65), the insurance company in most cases can review your health history and deny coverage if you’re health history or current condition doesn’t meet their underwriting criteria. This hasn’t change under the ACA. Note: There are numerous

Tenure of Administration: Research has proven that facilities which have longevity among their Administrators and Director of Nursing have better clinical outcomes. Policies and processes are more consistent with stable leadership Employee turnover rate: Health care is individual specific, therefore, facilities with low turnover rates provide more consistent care and foster better patient caregiver relationships. Adequate Staffing Levels: Staffing levels are critical to a safe and healthy environment and should be evaluated by shift to include a

staffing ratios of licensed staff RN/ LPN as well as Certified Nursing Assistants. Quality care is difficult to achieve when patient loads are high, delaying response to patient needs. RN Coverage: RNs in Colorado practice through assessment of patient health status, therefore it is imperative to have 24 hour RN coverage to be sure a change in medical condition is identified early and accurately. Call-in Procedures: Inevitably employees miss work, therefore a facility should have a comprehensive plan on how call-ins are managed and who covers when shortages occur.

CHRISTIAN LIVING COMMUNITIES

Stephen Dailey tackles life with a smile and hard work – always willing to do what needs to be done. When he found himself needing short-term rehabilitative services he chose Christian Living Communities, who shares his same values, as his partner in wellness.

Stephen progressed quickly, increasing his mobility, improving his gait and becoming independent again – putting in the hard work with his team cheering him on. However, when it was time to go, Stephen had a change of heart. He loved the life at Holly Creek, a neighborhood of Christian Living Communities, so much that he stayed – making a new home with new found friends. Now, a year later Stephen continues to stay well with out-patient visits to the rehab gym. He joins in programs and activities and enjoys the peace of mind that living in a retirement – or should we say re-firement living community brings. Stephen has definitely re-fired his living.

REHABILITATION HOSPITALS Rehabilitation Hospitals, sometimes referred to as Inpatient Rehabilitation Hospitals, provide intensive rehab to patients who are generally medically stable but need help to recover from injury or other medical conditions. They can be found within a hospital or in a free-standing building. Rehabilitation hospitals were created to provide services less costly on a per diem basis than general hospitals but provide a high level of professional therapies such as physical, occupational and speech therapies. Rehabilitation Hospitals must offer a minimum number of physician visits, increased daily rehab hours (3 hours/day, 5 days/week of PT, OT, and/or Speech), and interdisciplinary services including increased RN oversight and nursing hours per day.

Patients who choose an in-patient rehabilitation hospital have daily doctor visits, receive specialized rehab nursing care and undergo more significant rehabilitation. These facilities specialize in intensive rehabilitation teams to include physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech language pathologists, psychologists and more. Each patient receives at least three hours of rehab therapy per day, five days per week. 80 SOUTH METRO DENVER – MaY 2015-2016

Saluting WWII World War II was a global war Veterans that lasted from 1939 to 1945 involving the majority of the world’s nations, including all of the great powers.

It was the most widespread war in history and directly involved more than 100 million people from over 30 countries. The major countries threw their entire economic, industrial and scientific capabilities toward the war effort, eliminating the distinction between military and civilian resources. Marked by mass death of civilians, including the Holocaust and the strategic bombing of industrial and population centers, it resulted in an estimated 50 million to 85 million fatalities. This made World War II the deadliest conflict in human history. The war in Europe ended with the invasion of Germany by the Western Allies and the Soviet Union and Germany’s unconditional surrender on 8 May 1945. The United States dropped atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 6 and 8 August 1945. With the threat of additional atomic bombings and the Soviet Union’s declaration of war on Japan, the Japanese surrendered on 15 August 1945, thus ending the war in Asia and the final destruction of the Axis Bloc. World War II altered the political alignment and social structure of the world. The United Nations was

established to promote international cooperation and prevent future conflicts. The United States and the Soviet Union emerged as rival superpowers setting the stage for the Cold War which would last for 46 years. It brought about major innovations in technology and established the groundwork that permitted social changes including the end of European colonialism, the civil rights movement in the US, and the modern women’s rights movement.

The increasing number of RMSG participants demonstrates the demand for senior athletic competition.

Hosting more than 75 sporting events, RMSG participants have the unique opportunity to grow and prosper in a variety of athletics including badminton, basketball, cycling, pickle-ball, racquetball, swimming, track & field, bowling, tennis, and many more. The friendly atmosphere RMSG cultivates reaches beyond the sports, including a mixture of social events, prize giveaways, parades, ceremonies, feasts, and live entertainment, making this event an experience that leads to tradition. “I have won 87 medals in 23 consecutive years of RMSG competition spanning 12 different athletic events including track and field as well as weight lifting,” said 79-year-old RMSG athlete, Vern Spencer. “I have won 55 state

Bessie’s Hope Celebrating Since 1994, Bessie’s Hope has 20 Years served 50,000 nursing home/ assisted living elders and youth.

Co-founders Sharron Brandrup, Linda Holloway and Marge Utne began the non-profit as a legacy to Holloway’s grandmother. The organization trains and works with volunteers of all ages, including families, individuals, corporate and civic groups, and youth groups. Mutually rewarding relationships are cultivated across generations. The youth come from preschools through high schools and other youth programs, including those for “atrisk” youth, such as residential treatment centers. Through participation with Bessie’s Hope, bullies stop bullying, and compassion and respect are cultivated within all the youth. Many at-risk teens leave their rut of violence and hopelessness and turn toward brighter futures. An 18-yr old boy stated, “Bessie’s Hope helped me find a new me inside---a kinder me.” The ripple effects of this work are far-reaching. From a 96-yr old woman, “Bringing the young and old together like Bessie’s Hope does is not only a pleasure; it’s a necessity.” Sixty percent of nursing home elders receive NO personal visitors. Thus enters Bessie’s Hope, the only organization of its kind in the country. The elders feel valued and gain a renewed sense of purpose, while they share their wisdom and life stories with younger generations. A project in which the youth volunteers

participate is “Living Histories”. Youth interview their “grandpartners”, compose biographical sketches, and share the bios with the group at a subsequent visit. A large percentage of the elders served have Alzheimer’s Disease. Bessie’s Hope has expertise not only in intergenerational programming, but also in providing volunteers the education and training that enables them to have meaningful interaction with elders of all cognitive functioning levels, including advanced Alzheimer’s. This training helps families have better communication with their own family members, who are experiencing cognitive decline. The Bessie’s Hope education also includes communication with elders who have vision, hearing and speech challenges. Corporate volunteers state that community service through Bessie’s Hope is the best, because “you can see and feel immediately the impact you’ve made in someone’s life.” Bessie’s Hope also needs administrative volunteers, committee and board members, as well as financial support through donations, grants and event sponsorships. To get involved as an individual, with your family, with your company or civic organization, or with a youth group, go to www.bessieshope.org or call 303-830-9037.

Local Media Alert for The very fear of your loved one with Lost Seniors: dementia wandering away from your home could become a reality. The Silver Alert “Experts report that 60 percent of people with Alzheimer’s disease will wander at some point during the progression of the disease, and half of those will become lost and separated from a loved one. Using the incident rate of one critical wanderer per year per 1,000 persons over the age of 65 (1998 Census figures), the expected total of critical wanderer incidents reported to local law enforcement comes to 31,000 cases a year. Research suggests that most people become lost within close proximity to their home,” as stated in the Report, LOST and… FOUND by the Alzheimer’s Foundation, June 2012. The State of Colorado, Department of Public Safety has recognized these staggering statistics and has established a Missing Senior Citizen and Person with Developmental Disabilities Alert Program (24-33.5-415.8) (individuals with dementia, Parkinsons, diabetes, etc.). This is very similar to the

Amber Alert Program, which alerts the public of any missing child. The programming procedure for The Silver Alert entails the family reporting the description of the missing senior along with the last know location to law enforcement. This data is relayed to participating radio and tv stations, and other media outlets in Colorado. The public notices will be placed along the media every 15 minutes for 2 hours thereafter on 30 min intervals until the individual is found.

Angel Flight West – Angel A small child, ravaged by cancer, in the Cockpit needs specialized treatment at a hospital 300 miles away. A senior citizen needs to travel to medical treatment not available at home.

A father, separated from his family during a disaster, wants desperately to be reunited. A domestic violence survivor longs to start a new life in another city, but cannot afford to leave. A young burn survivor wants to attend a special camp for other kids who understand her emotions. They can get there when there’s an angel in the cockpit. For those whose lives are in turmoil, the financial, physical, and emotional burdens of travel can make ordinary trips difficult. That’s when they turn to Angel Flight West, a network of 1,200 volunteer pilots who fly their own planes and pay for all costs (which average from hundreds of dollars to thousands of dollars per flight) out of their own pockets. Angel Flight West pilots fly more than 3,500 of those every year These pilots who give so much of their time and money to help strangers, come from all walks of life. But as different as these men and women are, they all have two things in common: The love of flying, and the desire to touch people’s lives. Not only have they earned the gratitude of their passengers, they’ve earned the trust and respect of a long list of organizations of all types.

104 SOUTH METRO DENVER – MaY 2015-2016

Seventy one year old Larry G. needs to travel from his home to a major medical facility for treatment of his cancer. 120 miles away – but several hours of driving in traffic, Larry isn’t strong enough to make the drive. As pilot Tom Close noted about this particular flight “The events around Larry and this flight are indeed emblematic of Angel Flight West. AFW puts in touch those in need, and those of us with the luxury of giving back, using the opportunities and capabilities in our lives where they can have the biggest impact.” The passengers and their families, the healthcare organizations – pay nothing at all, ever. At the Santa Monica, California, headquarters, a dedicated staff manage the complex system of matching pilots with passengers, coordinating the flights, spreading the word among referral agencies, and continually recruiting new volunteers among 13 western states. If you are a caregiver, a patient who needs assistance, or someone who would like to donate, please visit their website www.angelflightwest.org or call them at 888-426-2643.

Achieve Maximum Independence

Many people experience some form of vision loss during their lifetime and it becomes even more prevalent as we age. According to the National Eye Institute, one in 28 Americans over the age of 40 will experience vision loss or blindness. However, by age 65, one in three people will experience some degree of vision loss related to eye disease. By 80 this number increases even further to two in every three people. Therefore, it is imperative that older adults begin to take the necessary steps to recognize and treat eye disease early in order to mitigate the loss of vision that may result. At the American Council of the Blind & Visually Impaired of Colorado (ACBCO) we strive to help our clients adapt and adjust to their vision loss to achieve maximum independence and quality of life. Whether vision loss is something you have dealt with before, or you are facing new vision challenges for the first time, ACBCO can help. Here is brief overview of the essential services we are able to provide

“Amada is amazing. They helped turn on both my and my wife’s long-term care insurance policies. They helped us collect the money we were promised. They helped my wife move into memory care and now they’re taking care of me. It has been seamless. They even bill John Hancock and John Hancock pays them directly so there is no more money out of pocket. They have made using our long-term care insurance so very very valuable.” — John SoareS, amada Client

Great Activities to do with Someone with Keeping individuals with AlzheiAlzheimer’s Disease mer’s Disease active stimulates their brain, brings forth moments of joy or Dementia and promotes a sense of usefulness. Here are some great activities that encourage social engagement and promote self-esteem: 1. Make use of skills that are not forgotten. From buttering bread, to drying dishes, to raking the garden, simple jobs are great for engaging someone with dementia and providing them with a sense of accomplishment and contribution. 2. Take the person on a small trip. Even if he won’t remember where he has been, the experience in the moment is what is important. But be selective about your outings and try to avoid crowded places, or having an agenda (like getting the grocery shopping done), as it may be too overwhelming. 3. Go through old photo albums. Help them recall treasured moments from the past. Or if they are at a point in their dementia where they are unable to remember, use the photos as a starting point to tell wonderful stories. Ask them what they think is happening in the picture, rather than what they remember. 4. Play a game or activity the person has always enjoyed. A bridge player may no longer be able to play, but may enjoy holding the cards and a simpler game like matching the suit, color or number. 5. Garden together. If she is unable to help you, bring her outside and sit her next to you as you garden. Letting

her enjoy the sunshine and look at the flowers as you garden can prove very comforting. 6. Play sorting games. Try sorting objects like buttons or swatches of fabric by color, shape and design. 7. Go on a walk. Exercise stimulates the brain, body and soul in all of us. No matter where they are in their disease, some form of exercise will be beneficial (for you and them!) Things for caregivers to keep in mind: ■ Break activities down into one step at a time. For instance, fold the napkins and put them away should be delivered as “fold the napkins”. Then, when they are done folding, you can ask them to “put them in the drawer”. ■ Don’t get stuck on the rules or things being done the right way. The objective is to make the person feel involved and successful. ■ Stay in the moment, use encouraging comments and realistic praises. And remember, it is our duty (and honor), as a caregiver, to help them achieve that sense of enjoyment and purpose, if even just for a moment.

Key Questions to Ask When Finding and utilizing home care Seeking a Home services is a personal experience, as caregivers often become a part of Care Provider your family. It is vital to know what to ask when you begin your search.

First determine if you need skilled or non-skilled home care. Skilled home care professionals are licensed and certified and provide medical care based on a doctor’s order. Nonskilled or non-medical home care professionals assist with bathing, cooking, cleaning, or dressing. Non-medical home care doesn’t require a physician’s order and can include transportation to and from appointments and outings, errand running, companionship, medication reminders, and protective oversight. It often offers the needed support to help you or your loved one continue to live at home as long as possible. These questions and answers can help you assess potential home care agencies for non-skilled home care:

Is the agency licensed with the state? What areas of town do you serve? a. ALL home care providers are required to be licensed with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and agencies must indicate the counties they will serve. Licensing provides an additional level of oversight and creates an outside source for complaints or concerns.

132 SOUTH METRO DENVER – MaY 2015-2016

Are your caregivers hired as full-time or just ‘as needed’? Can the caregivers cover up to 24/7 care? a. Agencies who offer full-time staffing create a more consistent schedule of caregivers for yourself or your loved one, verses those who only staff on an as-needed basis.

Am I able to increase or decrease hours if my loved one’s needs change? What is the process I need to follow? a. As we age, our needs typically increase. Make sure you choose a home care agency that can meet your changing needs to minimize switching agencies later.

Describe the training your caregivers receive. Does it include safe driving training? a. Caregivers are required to be trained annually in the duties they perform. Caregivers often provide transportation for yourself or your loved one. Look for a company that trains caregivers in safe-driving techniques.

Are you and your caregivers bonded and insured? a. This covers your caregiver if they are injured in your home as well as replacement costs if damages or losses are inadvertently caused by a caregiver. Continued on page 143

encounter. While there is no onesize-fits-all formula, there are tried and true proven techniques to help you. Utilize these five techniques that can empower you and make your situation more manageable:

Take Time and Just Be Spend time with no pressure, no agenda, no tasks, no judgment and no expectations. Allow the person to be who they are now. Keep in mind you can only tell the person with dementia what they can handle, and they can handle less and less. Don’t Ask Questions or Give Too Much Information Questions can be distressing at the best of times and can put pressure on people. Questions simply become too much information for the person with dementia to process. KEEP IT SIMPLE! Remain Calm, Confident, Patient and Present in the Moment Although people with dementia may seem distant or confused at times, their emotions and feelings remain. Hold their hand, give them a hug. Show them compassion and care. Think of these three lines of my favourite Maya Angelou’s poem: “People will forget what you said, People will forget what you did, But they will never forget how you made them feel”.

Ask for Help from Family and Care Professionals. Caregivers often feel obligated to sacrifice themselves for the sake of the person they are caring for. Regular family meetings and good communication can help clear the air before things reach a breaking point. If you are the primary caregiver, be sure you remember to take care of yourself. It is essential to everyone’s well-being that you remain in good health and can balance your care responsibilities with your own happiness. Educate Yourself The more you understand about the various causes of the dementia symptoms, the more you’ll see that your loved one’s behaviors and changes are par for the course. Keep in mind “it takes a village to care for someone presenting dementia symptoms”. You must gather your “villagers” (family members, friends, trained professionals, community resources) in order to successfully make it across the finish line in the “dementia care marathon”.

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

How often will staff conduct supervisory visits? a. State regulations require at least one visit every 90 days. Some agencies conduct more to improve customer service and better monitor your assigned care plan.

What do I do if I have a complaint/concern and when can I expect a response? a. All agencies have procedures for complaints/concerns. It’s important to clearly understand the procedures and expected outcomes

What are the policies or procedures regarding missed/ cancelled visits or inclement weather? a. It’s important to understand the agency’s cancellation/reschedule policies. Is there a required notification time? Associated charge? If your caregiver is ill, what is the agency’s backup plan to make sure your needs are met? Getting answers to these questions are the first steps in your journey to finding the right provider for you and your loved one.

If an individual is at a care facility, room and board are covered by hospice during this period. CC-CONTINUOUS CARE – Provided to prevent the individual from going to the hospital when a crisis occurs. It also is given when more help is needed to assist the individual and family in coping with the crisis.

care for people facing a life-limiting illness or injury, that involves a team-oriented approach to expert medical care, pain management and emotional and spiritual support expressly tailored to an Individuals needs and wishes.

Hospice affirms the concept that death is a natural part of life and not only considers the individual, but the family as the center of care. To receive hospice care, an individual must have a life limiting illness in which they are no longer seeking aggressive or curative medical treatments and if the illness were to run its natural course has a life expectancy of six months or less. Similar to hospice, palliative care is family-centered care that optimizes quality of life by anticipating, preventing and/or treating suffering. Palliative care addresses physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs to facilitate patient autonomy, access to information and choice. Palliative care is available to individuals that desire additional support while still pursuing aggressive, curative treatments; individuals admitted to Hospice are not seeking

Cardiac Rehab Patient Is All Heart As Dwight Hapeman lay in a Lutheran Medical Center Hospital bed recovering from triple bypass surgery, he promised himself three things: (1) He’d get well again. (2) He’d volunteer to help other cardiac Patients. (3) He’d meet his partner in life.

All lofty goals, but he was feeling lucky. Hapeman, of Aurora, knew what he had to do to get well, because he’d done it just a few months before. In March 2007, a routine EKG had revealed damage to his heart from a previous, silent heart attack. A subsequent cardiac catheterization and stenting procedure revealed that two of his arteries were significantly blocked. WAKE-UP CALL “I was completely shocked,” he says. “I never had any symptoms, and I thought I was healthy. But I knew I had to take this seriously.” Hapeman committed to Lutheran’s Outpatient Cardiac Rehabilitation Program, where he participated in monitored exercise sessions with a caring, knowledgeable staff; classes on nutrition, stress management and other health topics; and support groups. He lost almost 50 pounds and was feeling great. And then, in October, he had a massive heart attack. “This time, I had all of the typical symptoms— nausea, chest pain and breathlessness,” he says. After the emergency 166 SOUTH METRO DENVER – MaY 2015-2016

triple bypass saved his life, Hapeman recommitted to outpatient rehab to get healthy again. PROMISES KEPT Today, Hapeman, 63, has kept all three promises. He’s healthy and fit, weighing in at 160 pounds. He leads Lutheran’s cardiac support group and visits patients at hospitals throughout Denver as a volunteer with Mended Hearts, the oldest national cardiac support group in the U.S. Visiting other cardiac rehab programs has given him a new appreciation for Lutheran. “The level of personalized care that patients receive is truly special,” he says. Promise No. 3 was fulfilled on a beach in Fort Lauderdale in January 2011, when he married his wife, Maggie (they’re shown together above). Coincidentally, Maggie is a former cardiac nurse and is now a hospice nurse in Aurora. “There is life after a heart attack—even two heart attacks MENDING HEARTS To learn more about Lutheran Medical Center’s cardiac rehabilitation programs, please call 303-403-3604 Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Lutheran Medical Center.

Hospice does not mean giving up hope.

Hospice Care Definitions continued from page 157

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. Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com 169

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

SeniorsBlueBook.com

Wondering how to improve balance and agility, build strength and endurance, and enjoy time with friends? Make exercise a part of your weekly routine. No matter your age or ability, there is a place for you to accomplish your goals. Daily exercise is not only physically rewarding, it is a great way to improve your mood, work your brain, and relieve your anxieties. It can be food for your soul. Balance classes are a great way to focus specifically on improving balance, but most exercise will aid in building better balance. Why do you need to improve your balance? Better balance means less chance of falling. According to Consumer Reports’ chief medical adviser, each year, about half of those in the U.S. who are 65-plus suffer a fall; almost 10 percent are seriously injured. In 2011, almost 23,000 U.S. adults older than 64 died from a fall. Some were immediate, but most deaths occurred as a result of complications from the initial injury. Have you ever tried warm water therapy? Talk about a fantastic way to get in some exercise and build your core strength. Water provides a unique environment in which to ex-

ercise safely. It’s easy on the joints, relaxing to the muscles, and soothing to the mind, body, and spirit. Adding water weights or a resistance channel to your pool therapy will increase strength and endurance while keeping the intensity low. Starting slowly and adding weights or extra time to your workout is highly recommended for safety and injury prevention. It’s a perfect place to exercise if you have arthritis. Look for Aqua Arthritis, or water walking classes at your local pool. Additionally, look for social events or senior activities at local wellness centers. Several places may have life-long learning for a small cost or may even be free. The social aspect is not only fun but gives encouragement to those around you. If you don’t have an exercise buddy, go to your local gym or wellness center to find a class that fits your needs. Remember to listen to your body and make modifications as necessary.

two decades than in the prior two centuries and most of the news is really good!

And given all the information that has become available in recent years regarding Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease and dementia, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time for some good news! Scientists are discovering new things about the human brain every day and this is changing the way people view healthy aging. The old belief was that aging was a long, slow process of ever declining mental functioning. While there is some truth to this beyond middle age, most scientists now believe in a more complex view of brain aging. Recent studies have demonstrated that older brains actually become

more adaptive. Tasks that younger brains accomplish with one part of the brain are often accomplished by several parts of the older brain. In addition, the brain is much more flexible than previously thought and is constantly rewiring its functioning in based on what we do and how we think. This is called neuroplasticity. Studies have proven that our brain continues to adapt, evolve, and even grow new neurons and pathways our entire life, something that has been thought impossible in the past. Older brains are often less nimble, making it harder to switch tasks, make quick decisions or assimilate complex information, but they outperform many younger brains in tasks that require a higher degree

Understanding & Caring for the Brain continued from page 191

of integrated thinking—this is the “wisdom” that makes older brains comparatively better for activities such as coaching, editing, or practicing medicine. Overall, the ability to index and manage information and extract meaning increases with age. Scientists believe this may be the result of more complex pathways built up over years of collecting information. This ongoing growth and change in the brain turns out to be good for it. Those who engaged in regular cognitive activities (such as attending educational seminars, discussion groups or learning a new language) had higher levels of brain functioning and lower rates of Alzheimer’s

disease, dementia and other forms of cognitive impairment. The brain is a muscle like any other and benefits from regular exercise. As the saying goes, “use it or lose it!” So, don’t accept the notion that aging brings an unavoidable mental decline. It doesn’t have to be that way. Find something you enjoy that is mentally challenging and make it a regular part of your life. Your brain will thank you for it!

We have five employees dedicated solely to facilitating both on-site and off-site activities. Our program has been recognized by the Colorado State Health Department through the receipt of the “Best Practice” award. Serenity House is also highly regarded by numerous consumer advocacy groups.

Serenity House is owned and operated by Michael W. Zislis, PT a licensed physical therapist with over 30 years of experience in rehabilitation and senior care.

play piano, tend garden, and take Tui (my little Maltese) for walks.

Then, I had an unexpected, severe fall. My head punched a hole in the dry wall and left a big hole. An ambulance rushed me to the trauma center at Swedish Hospital where the CAT Scan revealed some cranial bleeding; several days of observation followed. Eventually, the blood disappeared. My son took me home, weak as a puppy - my invincibility scheme shattered. I quickly realized that this could happen again and next time, the emergency room doctor could tell me I can’t go home. I decided I want a choice in this process and decided to get proactive and investigate assisted living places in Denver. But how? Where do I begin? A friend suggested I call a company that helps seniors find housing options. Marnie came to my house, asked me all kinds of questions about my goals and preferences and said she would take me directly to tour various communities, at no charge

to me. It turns out that the communities pay the placement company so in my eyes it was a win-win. Because they are in and out of senior living communities every day they have a pulse on the ones that will fit an individual’s criteria and budget. The first two places disappointed--too small or too expensive, and too far from my church. But soon, we did find just the “right place” for me… just four miles from my church-smart, cheery, and well run, and one that would accommodate me, my Tui and believe it or not my seven-foot long grand piano! So if you find yourself in a situation where you just ‘don’t know where to begin’ call a Housing Placement company. The search services they provide at no charge to you will help you narrow your search quickly and help find just the right place for you.

y dear mother spent her last year of life in one of the Assured Assisted Living Homes. Though she suffered so from this horrible disease she was cared for with mercy and tenderness. Your staff and your training enables the resident to maintain their dignity right to the end of life. All of your staff are exceptional and treat the residents with such compassion and professionalism. No words can express how grateful I am for your vision and expertise in providing such a wonderful

home for residents with Alzheimer’s and memory loss. I only wish we had known of your homes earlier as she was initially placed in a nursing home before we found out about Assured Assisted Living. Thank you, Sheila Vella, daughter of Lura Brown.

Home Sweet Home Assured Assisted Living Homes are “Specialty Memory Care Homes” that are designed to meet the physical and emotional needs of residents with Alzheimer’s disease or related memory impairments, while providing peace of mind and ongoing support to their families. Most professionals agree that memory impaired individuals function better when they live in a smaller environment with a familiar group of people and continuity of staff. As a result, our homes are “real homes” in “real neighborhoods” similar to the ones our residents have lived in most of their lives. Our tranquil secure home environment encourages feelings of safety; freedom

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

SeniorsBlueBook.com

It seems today that everyone is interested in the next big thing to help ward off health problems and keep their minds active and fresh. Whether it’s regular exercise, quality sleep or an active social life, retaining your independence in your aging years is something to strive for. With the prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia climbing and no clear treatment or prevention in sight, it’s never too early to start boosting your brain reserves. Regardless of your age, taking steps to keep your mind and body healthy can play a huge role in your overall happiness according to the Alzheimer’s Research and Prevention Foundation. Just like with any health and fitness plan, boosting your brain reserves can be as simple as incorporating super foods into one’s diet. Even for those who may already struggle with memory loss, adding certain brain boosting foods may make a world of difference in their overall health, according to HelpGuide.org, a trusted non-profit resource website. By definition, super foods are calorie sparse and nutrient dense foods that pack a lot of punch for their weight in terms of wellness. They can be great sources of anti-oxidants and essential nutrients. Some examples of super foods include green leafy vegetables, spirulina, wheat grass, goji berries, acai, raw cacao and even bee pollen, seaweed or ginseng! Super foods can be added to ones diet in a variety of ways; one

included being the B3 Smoothie Program. This innovative brain boosting benefits (B3) program incorporates super foods into diets through the form of smoothies. An easy treat to create and consume, all the nutrients and vitamins are kept in their most concentrated and beneficial form by blending them raw in a blender unlike cooked fruits or vegetables that can lose nutrients in the cooking process. Adding these smoothies along with regular exercise, quality sleep and active socialization could add another facet to a long well lived life. Incorporating this daily afternoon or morning snack into a Memory Care community can provide residents with the best possible source of nutrients. The smoothies are designed to enhance and fuel a part of the body that may be affected by dementia or Alzheimer’s. But more importantly, eating right is an additional benefit related to life enrichment. It’s not to say that by consuming these super foods you are ridding yourself of any and all memory loss diseases, however, incorporating a wide variety of healthy activities and foods in your diet could prove to extend your life and your overall wellbeing. To learn more about a brain boosting B3 Smoothie Program and how it may benefit your loved one, please visit Spectrum Retirement’s Dining Page at, www.spectrumretirement.com
