December 2018 Goodbye and Good Luck

The ADRC will be saying “goodbye” to its Director, Jennifer Speckien. Her last day is Friday, December 7. She started at the ADRC in July 2008 and has been Director since July 2013. She’s moved the ADRC forward with her great ideas and careful carry through. The staff and board join me in grieving her moving on, but being happy for her as she takes on her next challenge. She’ll be contracting with the Greater Wisconsin Agency on Aging Resources to develop a statewide care transition program. They’re lucky to get this dedicated, hardworking woman! In the meantime, we’ll be hunting hard to find our next director. Since we’re known as a dynamic leader in the world of ADRCs, I’m sure we’ll find a fine director. Stay tuned! The Top 10 Things I’ve Learned at the ADRC By: Jennifer Speckien, ADRC Director

As you just read, I will be leaving the ADRC on December 7 to pursue a new opportunity. I’m leaving with very mixed emotions. I’m very excited about my new adventure but I am certainly going to miss the daily interactions with the staff at the ADRC, Eau Claire County and our customers. The good news for me is that my new work will still intersect with the ADRCs throughout Wisconsin, so I’ll get to see a lot of familiar faces! I have learned A LOT in my 10+ years at the ADRC from both the staff and our customers. I thought I would share some of those lessons with all of you. 1. Every single person and their situation is unique. You never see or hear the same thing twice. 2. Humility goes a long way. You never really feel like you know it all and that’s OK. You never will. Repeat after me “I’m sorry but I don’t know the answer to that. I will gladly look into it and get back to you.” This is our mantra. 3. Just when you think you’ve met someone or heard of someone’s situation that has to epitomize the words survivor and resilience, something comes along that takes your breath away. 4. Never underestimate the power of information. Knowing something that someone else doesn’t and choosing not to share it is abusing that power. Our main service is providing information and that’s a really important responsibility. 5. Nothing ever stays the same. And if it does, that probably means you are missing something. 6. A listening ear is more meaningful than you’d think. 7. Just when you think you can’t possibly give anything more to a new project, the thank you calls start rolling in and before you know it, you’re ready to take on the next big challenge. Which leads me to #8. 8. Gratitude and kindness is what keeps people going. 9. I didn’t truly understand multi-tasking until working in the ADRC. 10. Something amazing happens when you put 30+ people together who truly believe in the same mission. This is not the norm but it is here. I wish you all a joyous holiday season and hope our paths cross again in the future!

“It’s time to say goodbye, but I think goodbyes are sad and I’d much rather say hello. Hello to a new adventure.” – Ernie Harwell

Goodbye is never an easy thing to say, and in this case, it is exceptionally difficult. When trying to decide what to say that would sum up Jennifer and our time together, I remembered back to a few years ago when I reached out to staff to describe Jennifer in a word. I put together the characteristics shared above. These were, and are, a true testament to Jennifer not only in her work life, but in the community as well. Jennifer has been a constant at the ADRC over the last 10 1/2 years, and it is strange to imagine this office and the ADRC world without her positive leadership, dedication, inspiration and kind, caring advice. Thank you, Jennifer, for your years of service not only to this office but to the members of the community, various boards, peers and families; what an impact you have made in each of our lives. We know you will do amazing things on this new adventure! With many thanks, Emily Gilbertson, ADRC Assistant Director
Jennifer Speckien There are several thoughts on Jennifer from ADRC staff throughout the newsletter. “ I can’t tell you enough how much I enjoy working for and with Jennifer. She is smart, forward-thinking, an excellent communicator and amazing team leader. She is supportive and trusts her team to do good work. I will miss her tremendously. I am happy for her and the new opportunity she has. She will do great. I am sad for us here…”

Employee Spotlight Dave Okas ▪ Transportation Coordinator
I worked on the City of EC Fire Department for 30 years. I worked on the ambulance transporting patients for many of those years, which made this position a natural fit. I enjoy interacting with the clients, which is never boring! I like being able to assist clients who really need the help as communication with people who are hard of hearing and/or forgetful can be a challenge. After a transport to Walmart, a sweet older lady found herself with two birds and a cage that required total assembly. She looked at me and smiled big. Somehow I found myself assembling a birdcage on her front porch. Like I said, never boring! I enjoy spending time with my family, including 3 grandkids ages 2 ½, 1, and 5 months. I also like working outside, riding my John Deer tractor and duck hunting. After many years as a carpenter for hire, I enjoy working on my own things now.

Dementia And
the Holidays
The holidays are a "me when family and friends o@en come together. But for families living with Alzheimer's and other demen"as, the holidays can be challenging. With some planning and adjusted expecta"ons, your celebra"ons can s"ll be happy, memorable occasions. Familiarize others with the situa on Let guests know what to expect before they arrive. You may find this easier to share changes in a le#er or email that can be sent to mul"ple recipients. Here are some examples: "I'm wri"ng to let you know how things are going at our house. While we're looking forward to your visit, we thought it might be helpful if you understood our current situa"on before you arrive.” Adjust expecta onsͶmee ng to discuss upcoming plans Invite family and friends to a faceͲtoͲface mee"ng, or if geography is an obstacle, set up a phone conference call. Be good to yourself Give yourself permission to do only what you can reasonably manage. If you've always invited 15 to 20 people to your home, consider paring it down to a few guests. Do a varia on on a theme If evening confusion and agita"on are a problem, consider changing a holiday dinner into a holiday lunch or brunch. If you do keep the celebra"on at night, keep the room wellͲlit and try to avoid any known triggers. Involve person with demen a Focus on ac"vi"es that are meaningful to the person with demen"a. As the person's abili"es allow, invite him or her to help you prepare food, wrap packages, help decorate or set the table. Maintain a normal rou ne S"cking to the person's normal rou"ne will help keep the holidays from becoming disrup"ve or confusing.

The drive, dedication, and passion she has for the ADRC, the consumers we serve and those in our community is incredible. Jennifer takes “thinking outside the box” to another level by not only coming up with new and innovative solutions to a problem, but then also putting those ideas into action and following through all the way to the end result. Jennifer strives to be the best possible version of herself that she can be; by doing this she inspires those around her to be the best they can be – in both their professional and personal lives.

Breakfast For Your Brain The Breakfast For Your Brain monthly class ended in October at the Augusta Senior and Community Center. A delicious breakfast was served each class from the ADRC kitchen, and attendees learned tips to challenge the brain. After several months of learning about brain health and fun exercises, participants reported that the class encouraged them to, “Keep active, embrace change, and eat healthy.” Because of the monthly class, several stated they plan to, “Change my routine, exercise during commercials, try new things, and join a book club.” One participant stated, “I love everything about the class. The brain exercises were challenging and I learned much about the brain!”

Nutrient Dense Desserts
As we approach the holiday season, the challenge to keep our diets balanced and healthy becomes increasingly difficult. You could add addi"onal ingredients to your current recipes that would increase the nutrients in your desserts. Adding pureed beans in place of half the shortening in your brownies is a great way to make them nutrient dense without affec"ng the flavor. In pie crusts, you can also use ground up graham crackers and a couple tablespoons of lowͲfat milk as an alterna"ve to bu#er.
White flours have had all the beneficial nutrients stripped in the refining process. A possible subs"tute is black beans! One cup of rinsed, cooked, drained, and pureed black beans equals 1 cup of flour. It will lower the calories of your sweets while adding protein! For a gluten free op"on, use buckwheat flour as it’s a seed not a grain!
The yolk of the egg contains about half of the eggs protein and is rich in vitamin A, phosphorus, iron, zinc and vitamin D, however, it also contains a high amount of cholesterol. When you need a moist dessert, swap the eggs for banana, pumpkin puree, sweet potato, or applesauce. When the recipe uses eggs as a binder, try: Flax eggs (1 Tbsp. Flax mixed with 3 Tbsp. water) or Chia eggs (1 Tbsp. Chia seeds mixed with 3 Tbsp. water).
Red velvet cupcakes are usually low in protein and high in fat. Our recipe this month uses beans and applesauce to increase protein while minimizing fat content. In addi"on to protein, beans have other great health benefits. They are high in fiber, B vitamins and iron. What be#er way to sneak in protein, than in cupcakes!
Happy Holidays!

The Senior Nutri on Program would like to thank Randy’s Family Restaurant, the wonderful volunteers from Calvary Bap st Church and Valley Brook Church for teaming up to bring Thanksgiving to homebound Seniors in Eau Claire county who receive Meals on Wheels. Also thank you to Brent Douglas Flowers for the beau ful carna ons that adds that special warmth to the day, and the Aging & Disability Resource Center of Eau Claire county. ThankͲyou to all of those who made this a very special day for so many. Several mes every winter the Eau Claire County Nutri on Program must cancel Meals on Wheels delivery due to inclement weather. In some cases that leaves homebound Senior Ci zens in Eau Claire County without a meal for that day. For the fi-h year in a row Feed My People food bank has come to the rescue. This year they packaged and donated 300 boxes of shelfͲstable food to cover those days when meals cannot be delivered. The boxes contained items such as canned vegetables, canned tomatoes, corn, crackers, tuna, Tuna Helper, canned chicken, pasta, rice dinners, shelf stable milk and protein bars. Meals on Wheels volunteers delivered those boxes to all the Meals on Wheels and Congregate Dining par cipants. Recipients are encouraged to use them as needed this winter. Thank you Randy for spending the day loading vehicles for us.

“I have always felt that we have an exceptional staff at the ADRC, much of this is due to the amazing leadership we’ve had in my 6 years here. Jennifer lead us in such a trusting and encouraging way that many of us have been able to develop and grow in our roles with the ADRC, I am no exception. As a young professional in this community I could not ask for a better leader and mentor.

Living Well with Alzheimer’s
by Judy Fuhrer Hello everyone, it’s great to be with you again this month! Well, Christmas will soon be upon us and for some of us it will s"ll be as wonderful as it was when we were kids. For others, however, that may not be the case. As we age it is typical for many of us to want to simplify our lives. Buying gi@s for our children and grandchildren can be very frustra"ng and "meͲconsuming. Many of us are not Caregiver Support Groups working and therefor money may be in short supply. Alzheimer’s and Related Demen"as Lake Street Instead of buying expensive gi@s, you might consider Methodist Church, 337 Lake Street, Eau Claire making a list of quali"es you admire in each child and Thursday, December 6, 2018, 1:30 ʹ 3:30 pm enclose each list in a card with a small gi@ or money.

Older Driver Safety Awareness Week ॺ December 3-7, 2018 It Isn’t About Age, It is About How We Function!
Understanding how age affects safe driving Everyone ages differently, so there is no arbitrary cutoff as to when someone should stop driving. As we age, factors such as decreased vision, impaired hearing, or slowed motor reflexes may become a problem. You may have a chronic condi"on that gradually worsens with "me, or you may have to adjust to a sudden change, such as a stroke. Knowing when to decrease or quit driving all together isn’t about hiWng a specific age, it is all about how your body func"ons. ▪ Pain or s"ffness in your neck can make it harder to look over your shoulder, change lanes or look le@ and right at intersec"ons to check for other traffic or pedestrians. ▪ Leg pain can make it difficult to move your foot from the gas to the brake pedal. ▪ Diminished arm strength can make it hard to turn the steering wheel quickly and effec"vely. ▪ As reac"on "mes also slow down with age, you may be slower to spot vehicles emerging from side streets and driveways, or to realize that the vehicle ahead of you has slowed or stopped. ▪ Keeping track of so many road signs, signals, and markings, as well as all the other traffic and pedestrians, can also become more difficult as you lose the ability to effec"vely divide your a#en"on between mul"ple ac"vi"es.
Take care of your health
▪ Get your eyes checked annually. Make sure that correc"ve lenses are current. Keep the windshield, mirrors, and headlights clean, and turn brightness up on the instrument panel on your dashboard. Have your hearing checked annually. If hearing aids are prescribed, make sure they are worn while driving. ▪ Talk with a doctor about the effects that ailments may have on your driving ability. If you have glaucoma, you may find "nted eyeglass lenses useful in reducing glare. ▪ Take medica"ons correctly and ask a pharmacist if driving is a concern with any of your medica"ons. You may be able to take certain medica"ons at "mes of the day that won’t interfere with driving. Don’t be afraid to ask for help with managing medica"on. Check with your pharmacy to see if they can preͲpackage them for you. The Aging & Disability Resource Center can assist with other op"ons to help you manage your medica"ons. Know your limita ons
Choose to drive at "mes that you are most comfortable. For example, limi"ng or not driving a@er dusk, the winter months or during high traffic "mes is important if you are uncomfortable naviga"ng in these situa"ons. As we age, it is cri"cal to recognize that our abili"es can change. Some "ps that we have heard include:
▪ Planning routes with all right hand turns, if possible. ▪ Scheduling appointments during lower traffic volume "mes (i.e. a@er 9:00 am, before 4:00 pm). ▪ Use alterna"ve transporta"on during the winter months. ▪ Carpool with friends and family whenever possible. Alterna ves to driving
Eau Claire County offers several different transporta"on op"ons for those that are unable to drive themselves for any reason. The Aging & Disability Resource Center has comprehensive Transporta"on Resources. Please contact the ADRC if you are interested in resources or would like to talk to about transporta"on op"ons. Poten"al op"ons include but are not limited to: ▪ Volunteer Driver Programs such as New Freedom or Triniteam Caregivers ▪ ADRC Rural Transporta"on Van ▪ Taxi Cab ▪ Eau Claire City Transit Bus System (ride the bus train ing is available if you have never used the bus before) ▪ If you are unable to use the city bus, you may be eligible for the paraͲtransit program. Please contact the Aging & Disability Resource Center for more details, 715Ͳ839Ͳ4735.

Recycling has been around for nearly 30 years, but the rules have changed drastically in the last few years. One change that really has people scratching their head is the freezer and refrigerator boxes. The reason for this was the protective coating that was applied to the packaging. This chemical coating is designed to prevent freezer burn or prevent the package from leaking. Now, we can put most boxes from the fridge and freezer in the recycling bin. However, there are two key box types to avoid. ॺ Watch for a box that has been coated in plastic or wax of any kind; soy milk, juice cartons, and a few boxes you may find in your freezer. The plastic helps to extend the shelf life of the contents. Usually the plastic is visible. ॺ The other type of box to keep out of your recycling is one where the food comes into direct contact with the box. For example, corn dogs come in a box, but they aren’t in a bag inside that box. That box needs to be put in the trash. If your pizza is wrapped in plastic inside the box, go ahead and recycle the box. But if the food is just inside the box, trash it. The lack of a plastic lining indicates that the box was probably treated with the chemical that prevents freezer burn. The more you know, the better recycler you can be! Remember to buy products made from recycled material, and #RecycleRight! Meghan Burkett, Recycling Coordinator Eau Claire County Recycling@co.eau-claire.wi.us (715) 839-2756
