Letter from the Publisher It’s been a crazy past year because of Covid-19. And, although it’s not over just yet, progress has been made. Medications have been found that help symptoms and vaccinations have been developed that are starting to be administered. Until Covid-19 is a thing of the past, we’ve learned that there are things that we can do, ourselves, to try to stay safe, such as washing our hands often, wearing masks and social distancing. Although living in these uncertain times can be stressful, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has offered some tips to helps us cope, emotionally and mentally. • Stay connected with other people • Get a good night’s sleep • Eat healthy, well balanced meals • Stretch, take deep breaths, or meditate • Exercise regularly • Give yourself time to do activities that you enjoy and that help you unwind We’ve also included some ideas for exercise and fun activities, in this issue of the Guide, that you can do at home. Take care and best wishes for a healthy and happy 2021!

NORTH ST. LOUIS CITY / COUNTY SENIOR LIVING GUIDE 2021
Our decisions about where we live can change throughout the different stages of our lives. We, oftentimes, have small starter homes and, as children come along, larger homes are purchased to accommodate our growing families. After children leave the nest, some choose to remain in the home, while others decide to downsize, once again. Whether we’re independent active Seniors, or, in need of assistance...we’re fortunate, today, to have many types of living options to choose from, to meet our changing wants and needs.
LIVING OPTIONS Aging In Place
Rehabilitation
Aging in Place is staying in the home you live in. And, if needs arise, those needs are met by hiring outside assistance. Assistance can include home making assistance, transportation, personal care and skilled medical care. Frequency and duration of assistance varies by situation and can range from weekly visits to live-in assistance. Hospice can be available to assist the terminally ill.
Short-term live-in centers that offer rehabilitation services to help recovery from an injury, illness or surgery.
Independent Living – Senior Communities
Skilled Nursing
This is the choice of many active Seniors that choose to downsize. Senior Living Communities are age-restricted, usually to those 50 or 55+, and consist of low-maintenance apartments, homes or villas, attached or detached, where residents can care for themselves, completely, without assistance.
Respite Care
Assisted Living An Assisted Living Residence is a fulltime residence for adults that do not need ongoing skilled nursing care but require ongoing assistance with everyday tasks, such as dressing, bathing and eating.
Full-time residences that offer private or semi-private rooms, medical care and rehabilitation, meals, activities and programs.
Memory Care Live-in residences that offer a safe & secure setting and therapies and programs that allow those with Alzheimer’s Disease, or other memory-related conditions, to live life to their fullest.
Temporary care for a dependent, outside of the home, providing a short-term break for family caregivers at home. 5

Fun, Creative PROJECTS You Can Do At Home In addition to being fun, doing creative arts, regularly, results in a significant increase in a person’s overall health. It is a great way to overcome feelings of loneliness and boredom and to enhance emotional, mental and physical well-being. When we’re fully engaged in a project, we forget about day to day concerns. Hand movements, while working on a project, can help maintain or improve fine motor skills, too…which are important for tasks that are required for daily living. Doing creative crafting projects can help socialization, too. There are crafting groups, in-person or online, where new friendships can be made. And, being able to show and talk about our latest project with friends and relatives can be a great topic for conversation. Whether you have an artistic talent or you’re new to creative endeavors, there are so many fun projects available, there are options for everyone!

Low Impact & Aerobic Exercises that are Good for You
Walking Walking can be done inside the home or around the neighborhood and can be done at your own pace. Brisk walking is also a great aerobic exercise that can improve your cardiovascular health, lower stress and lower blood pressure.
Leg Raises Leg raises can be done either sitting or standing, where you lift your leg, either straight, or bent at the knee. Leg raises can increase strength and, also, help improve balance.
Arm Raises Arm raises can be done either standing or sitting in a chair, and can be
done by raising the arm at the elbow or at the shoulder. Weights or resistance bands can be used to increase the workout.
Dancing In class, and at home, dancing is an aerobic activity that can help increase energy levels, strengthen your heart, boost overall mood and improve your memory.
Toe Lifts Toe lifts can be done by standing behind a chair and holding onto the back of the chair, while lifting up onto your toes and, then, lowering your foot back down flat onto the floor.
