Senior Source Resource Guide  May 2015 – April 2016  a publication of Senior Services of Snohomish County

Resource Guide expands its focus Sometimes change is so positive it is hard to believe it didn’t happen sooner. That is how we feel with this edition of the Resource Guide. In this year’s guide you will find not only information and resources to make the lives of seniors easier but many complementary resources have been added to better serve people living with disabilities. This expanded focus is referred to as Aging and Disability Resources nationally and has proven highly successful across the country. Created in 1974, Senior Services has a long history of growing and adapting to meet the needs of people living in our community. Each program or service that we have added over the years has enabled our organization to help more people and we will continue to expand into resources and programs that will serve people with disabilities. With the additional information, the Resource Guide is now fully aligned with Senior Services mission of promoting independence, preserving dignity, and enhancing the quality of life through the provision of services for older adults, people with disabilities, their family members and caregivers. And for those who have a computer and internet access or have made the leap to smart phones and electronic tablets, you can now view the Resource Guide online.

Safely dispose of unused medicine ...to protect your family, community & the environment!

roper disposal of medicine can prevent you from confusing old drugs with current prescriptions and avoids accidental overdoses, theft and other misuse of medications. Don't store unneeded meds in your home, and don’t dispose by flushing. Flushed medicines can pollute surface and ground water. You can safely dispose of many unused medications for free at participating pharmacies and at all law enforcement locations in Snohomish County. For chemotherapy drugs, contact your prescribing medical office to see if they will accept the drug.

Find details, locations and hours online at www.takebackyourmeds.org or call 425-388-3199.

Snohomish County Partnership for Secure Medicine Disposal Protecting our community from harm by collecting unwanted prescription medicines from residents

Take Back Your Meds is a group of health organizations, police, drugstores, local governments, environmental groups, and others in Washington state who support medicine take-back programs to reduce access to highly addictive drugs, reduce the risk of poisonings and reduce environmental contamination.

Legacy of Kindness

a nonprofit organization

Leave a Legacy of Kindness and Compassion As Susan watched her mom grow older, the challenges of aging really hit home. In a perfect world, every older adult would have nearby relatives or neighbors to make daily visits, prepare meals, clean the house and make small home repairs. But too many seniors in Snohomish County have no such support system. They are isolated and alone. After 20 years in Snohomish County, Susan and her husband Kenneth have deep ties to our community and see the clear need for our Meals on Wheels program and other services. They envision a future in which older adults, like Susan’s mother and those who care for them, will have access to all of the services and resources they need to maintain their health and independence. In fact, Susan has relied on Senior Services for advice on caring for her aging mother. Susan and Kenneth wanted to know that supportive senior services would continue to be available – so, they decided to make a planned gift to Senior Services of Snohomish County. In their research, they realized there are many different ways to leave such a gift, and that leaving a planned gift did not have to compromise their financial stability or family priorities. Leaving a planned gift is simple to do and satisfying – both as a way to leave your legacy and as a way to ensure that our older and disabled neighbors can get the help they need when they need it. Susan and Kenneth hope that others in the community will be inspired to make a planned gift as well. If you would like to know more about how you can leave a legacy or make a gift to Senior Services, please call Janet Duncan, Development Director, at 425-290-1262.

Four reasons to include Senior Services of Snohomish County in your will: 1. Leave a lasting legacy by enabling Senior Services of Snohomish County to continue bringing food, friendship and other critical services to older adults and people with disabilities far into the future. 2. Make a gift that costs nothing during your lifetime. 3. Make a gift without using cash. 4. Help your heirs in the future by eliminating or reducing estate and capital gains taxes. And, when you make a bequest or planned gift to Senior Services, we will be pleased to welcome you into the Senior Services of Snohomish County Legacy Society.
