SENIOR HOUSING
First you should familiarize yourself with the many options available and determine which one is best for your needs. You will find definitions of each type of housing at the beginning of the housing section. Then turn to our easy to read comparison grids. The grids are divided into 3 categories, depending on the type of community: Independent Living and Retirement, Assisted Living, and Skilled Nursing. The buildings are listed by city or county so you can zero in on the specific areas you are looking for.

HEALTH AT HOME - HOME HEALTH AGENCIES
Adult Day Care or In-Home Care: Many of us were familiar with “day Your Choice care” when our kids were pre-school age, and we needed the kids to be cared for while we were at work.
Well, what about having mom or dad living with us when they shouldn’t be left alone at home all day. Not only would it be boring, but it may be medically unadvisable. We have choices of in-home care such as a Home Care and Personal Assistance agency (pages # - #), or away-from-home care in an Adult Day Care (ADC) facility (page #) The available level of care varies among agencies and ADC facilities, 60 SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI – 2020 WINTER–SUMMER
so be sure your loved one’s needs will be met when selecting care. In-home care with a caregiver affords certain “comforts of home” that may be beneficial, yet an ADC offers interaction with other seniors and activities not available at home. Both have advantages; we have had families tell us that they use both options, with in-home care on the first two days of the work week, and ADC the other three days. Whichever you choose, be sure it’s providing an enriching, satisfying experience for your loved one. ~

Make a will. Don’t burden your family with legal details that will be costly and time-consuming. Tell everyone what you want them to do with you and your property, even your debts. Real Estate and Finances: Plan for transfer of ownership while you can. Be specific; Consult an attorney listed in this Seniors Blue Book. What you want to happen may not be what actually happens after you die. Plan your funeral. A funeral home must pick-up your body so plan ahead. Otherwise your family will be burdened with an expensive and emotional event. Don’t leave them with decisions about what to do with you. Give-away “stuff”.

Five Good Reasons... continued from page 81 to take their medication as prescribed. Senior living communities have programs and processes in place that can help with medication reminders transportation to the pharmacy, and can notify a health care provider or family member if they notice a change in a person’s health condition or behavior. Nourishment Senior living communities have robust dining services that can help nourish residents. An older adult with a chronic medical condition like diabetes or high blood pressure may need to follow a special diet. Certain foods might negatively interact with medications, or medication may change a senior’s appetite. The staff
of an assisted living community will monitor their residents. Companionship Chronic loneliness can impact a person’s memory, physical well-being and life expectancy. Senior living communities support many of the aspects of life that can help mitigate loneliness, such as group meals, activities, outings and transportation to events. ~ Editor’s Note: For further information contact Care Patrol of Greater Mobile and Northwest Florida, Amy Boswell 251-930-4022 or Petra Percivalle 251-415-4800, and see listings for Assisted Living in this Seniors Blue Book.

Services include meal plans, cable television, local phone calls, housekeeping, laundry maintenance and transportation. Personal assistance with ADLs available.

REHABILITATION HOSPITALS 90
Know the Difference in Inpatient You never know when you may be Rehabilitation for faced with the challenging task of Better Recovery being a caregiver for someone you love. Stroke, brain injury, hip fracture, Parkinson’s disease and many other conditions may require the need for inpatient rehabilitation. Knowing the difference between an inpatient rehabilitation hospital and a skilled nursing facility–or nursing home–can help you as a caregiver to make an informed decision in choosing the best rehabilitation program for your loved one. Making the right choice gives your loved one a greater chance of reclaiming independence for a higher quality of life and a return into the community. When comparing rehabilitation choices, it’s important to ask questions and compare notes from place to place. Questions like, how often is the patient seen by a physician? Do the nurses specialize in rehabilitative care? How advanced are the technologies that will be used? How much therapy will my loved one receive? Are rehabilitation teams experienced and experts in their field? By gaining this knowledge, you gain a clearer view of the benefits one place offers over another, boosting patient recovery to optimum levels. When you conduct your own research, you will know the difference before you choose a rehabilitation provider. Pay close attention to the following areas, key differences in many locations for treatment. SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI – 2020 WINTER–SUMMER
Advanced technologies: New technologies and treatments consistently offer patients greater options for successful rehabilitation and recovery. Yet, some skilled living facilities do not offer these advancements, limiting progress and a successful return to independence. Frequent physician* visits: Patients are evaluated by a rehabilitation physician at least three times a week at a rehabilitation hospital, leading team meetings to discuss a patient’s progress in reaching goals of independence. 24/7 rehabilitation RNs: Patients have around-the-clock care from registered nurses that specialize in rehabilitative care. Three hours of therapy a day, five days a week: A rehabilitation hospital requires that patients receive at least three hours of therapy five days a week. Patients have their personalized therapies spread out throughout the day to improve appropriate skills including walking, swallowing, eating, cooking, grooming and dressing. A higher level of care in rehabilitation can make a proven difference for patient outcomes. ~ *The hospital provides access to independent physicians.
