Tips for Alzheimer’s caregivers Suggestions to make life easier for those caring for loved ones.

Editor’s note More than 5 million Americans live with Alzheimer’s but they aren’t the only ones impacted by this horrible disease.

Millions of unpaid loved ones who care for Alzheimer’s patients carry a high risk of poor health. It’s a responsibility that requires encouragement and resources. So Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corp. and Leeza Gibbons, Emmy-winning TV and radio personality, are teaming up for a new educational campaign called “Stand Together for AD: Strength and Support for Alzheimer’s.”

Learn more about what they’re doing in the article, inside this issue of Creative Living, about tips to help caregivers.

Tips for the millions of Alzheimer’s caregivers

Alzheimer’s takes a toll on more than just the 5 million Americans living with the disease. The millions of unpaid caregivers for patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) carry a high risk of poor health.

W

hile caregiving can be rewarding, it also can be a long and difficult journey, which often affects work, finances, relationships and health.

Caregiving is a responsibility that requires encouragement and resources. Caregivers sometimes may be too overwhelmed, frustrated or depressed to seek out the help they need.

To help caregivers navigate the challenges of caring for a loved one with AD, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation and Leeza Gibbons, Alzheimer’s caregiving advocate and Emmy-winning TV and radio personality, launched a new educational campaign called Leeza Gibbons, caregiving advocate and TV/radio personality, announces the launch of “Stand Together for AD: Stand Together for AD. Strength and Support for Alzheimer’s.”

Caregivers can visit www.AlzheimersDisease.com for tips on coping and staying healthy, and for access to a new caregiver support program.

“My family and I cared for my mother for nearly 10 years as she battled Alzheimer’s. Watching her decline felt like an emotional, physical and spiritual assault, which every member of my family dealt with individually,” said Gibbons.

“I learned so much from that experience – most importantly that being a care-

giver is not something you can do alone.

The mission of ‘Stand Together for AD’ is close to my heart because it will educate Alzheimer’s caregivers and empower them to seek and receive support they may need to get through their difficult and brave journey,” she said.

Here are some tips from Gibbons to help caregivers ensure their own wellbeing:

Breathe Work to lower stress by recognizing signs of strain early, identifying their sources and taking action to reduce the stress when possible.

Set overarching goals to be accomplished in the next three to six months and smaller steps to ensure they are achieved.

Believe Focus on your contributions as a caregiver, praising yourself rather than feeling guilty at perceived deficiencies.

Know that you will be enough, that you can do it. Optimism can be an important weapon.

Receive Join a support group to get encouragement and advice from other caregivers who are going through the same thing.

Stay connected with friends and family, and let them know how they can help by preparing a list of what you need and letting others pitch in.

It’s never too late to ask for help and find the strength and support you need.

Work close to a doctor’s heart Dr. Sairam Atluri’s work is close to his heart because he knows first hand what it’s like to be inflicted with lifealtering pain.

“It can be debilitating,” Dr. Atluri, of Interventional Spine Specialists, explained. “But there is hope – there can be relief.”

He has spent the last 14 years of his career relieving the pain of local men and women so that they may live their lives to the fullest.

Just ask his three-year patient Norvilla Wright. Wright, 91, was suffering with severe pain in her right leg due to inflammation in a nerve.

“I was wild with pain,” she explained. “It was debilitating.”

With her visits to Dr. Atluri for epidural steroid injections, she found calm in her life again.

“This has been a wonderful help,” she said. “This treatment has given me a lot of relief.”

She also appreciates having a doctor who “really cares.”

“He’s a very caring person and has been great. He seems to really want to

help people,” she said. “I’m 91 and it’s great to have a young person interested in helping me. Dr. Atluri and his staff have been so helpful.”

Dr. Atluri is happy to have brought peace and well-being back in Wright’s life.

Recognized as a “Top Doctor” by Cincinnati Magazine in 2007, 2010, and 2011, Dr. Atluri completed both a fellowship in pain management and anesthesia residency at the University of Cincinnati, Department of Anesthesia.

He was named one of the top 70 interventional pain physicians in the United States by Becker’s Orthopedic and Spine Review.

He has authored many articles in the official Journal of the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians.

Dr. Atluri has held a board membership with the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians and served as vice president for the Ohio chapter of American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians.

Roof Time phones are ringing off the hook Roof repairs keep the phones ringing off the hook at Roof Time at this time of year. “We stay steady all year, even over the winter,” said office manager Missy Shoemaker. “But from now through the summer, we are really busy.”

Roof Time does more than just Owens Corning roof systems. “We are certified as a Top Of The House contractor by Owens Corning, one of only three here in our area,” she continued. “So we get a lot of calls about attic insulation, siding, and gutter toppers, but roof calls lead the way.”

“Our roof calls include mistakes made by other

roofer that are now leaking, to a roof that needs replacing, and everything in between. After a few rainy days, shoddy installation errors become noticeable to a homeowner, and when they try to get their roofer to come back, they find out that he has moved onto his next victim.”

To avoid becoming frustrated, she advises homeowners to consider a company’s Better Business Bureau file, an Angie’s List Super Service Award, and references that a homeowner can call and check.

“We are a non-licensed industry, unlike plumbers and electricians,” she

says. “And that opens the door for poor workmanship and roofs being replaced when only a repair would have worked.”

Many roofing companies don’t like to deal with repairs “because there’s no money in it” or they don’t like trying to fix someone else’s mistake. But Roof Time has no problem diagnosing a roof’s problem and bidding a repair, if it’s all that is needed.

“It’s the building block of our company,” Shoemaker says. “Most folks who we do repairs for call us back when other work needs to be done. We build a relation-

ship and that evolves into other work – siding, gutter protection, and attic insulation. Our estimators do not earn commissions, so they only bid what you need. If a couple hundred dollar repair will fix your home, we won’t try to tell you differently.”

Roof Time understands that roofing is first and foremost a service industry. As Greg Lykins, a Roof Time Foreman says: “You don’t hire us for the shingles, you hire us for the roof! Anyone can buy shingles from a store and nail them on, but we have the training, skill and experience to install everything your home needs, correctly, the

first time around.”

Five of the most common roof repairs Roof Time gets include: Missing shingles. A piece of shingle in the yard is an obvious sign.

But in many cases, homeowners don’t know there’s a problem until a stain or spot shows up on the ceiling inside. The best way to prevent a leak is to get the roof inspected every couple of years.

Roof Time offers free estimates that can include color digital pictures and a thermal camera scan to pinpoint any problems.

Flashing leaks. Most often, leaks occur in the flashing area, where metalwork is installed at any penetration detail on the roof, spots where proper workmanship is especially important, for example, a chimney, a skylight, a pipe boot, or a wall.

Gutters. The gutter system is only as good as the way it is installed.

They find a lot of gutters improperly fastened to begin with so they loosen quickly. Gutters are first cleaned, and then properly secured, making sure the pitching is right for drainage and that the end caps and miters are sealed to prevent leaking.

Skylights. A skylight that needs to be replaced or one that has been compromised in some manner usually brings a Roof Time crew out. A lot of roofers don’t like to deal with skylights because they are somewhat complicated and often come from many different manufacturers. Skylights have come a long way and you ROOF see page 10

Awesome place to be Gymnastics Central is just a great place to be, according to owner Jim Bartley.

“I like to make this a ‘happy place,’” Bartley explained. “An environment where people can let down their guard and just relax.”

They try to accommodate each child’s needs, whether it be fun, exercise or developing their gymnastics skills to their fullest potential. Everyone is here to help each other and the relationships are strong and meaningful.

Bartley who’s been involved in the sport for more than 35 years, recently moved Gymnastics Central from Batavia to Newtown. He is experienced in almost every aspect of the sport, including being a compet-

itive gymnast, a coach, and a gym owner.

He began his training here in Cincinnati, and competed throughout high school and obtained a scholarship to the Ohio State University. He was voted most valuable gymnast in his sophomore year.

His goal now is “to have the best gym in the Cincinnati area.” And his new facility is certainly a step in the right direction. This 30,000square-feet facility is full of all the latest gymnastics technology, including in-ground trampolines, loose foam pits, lots of bars, beams, and ample preschool equipment.

AWESOME from page 7 art facility is in a great location and close to Turpin Hills, Mariemont, Terrace Park, Milford, and Hyde Park. It’s filling a great need for this area according to Bartley.

“I like to see kids enjoying physical activities and interacting, which is so important in this computer age,” Bartley said. “The sport itself is very fulfilling. There is a lot of work but the payoff is worth it.”

No other sport offers the benefits that gymnastics provides upper and lower body strength, flexi-

bility, balance, and overall coordination.

“A good gymnastics foundation in one’s younger years is beneficial for a lifetime,” Bartley said.

Gymnastics Central offers a wide spectrum of classes from beginners to high level gymnasts, and the programs start at age 2. They also offer tumbling/trampoline, “cheer skills,” and will soon add dance.

Why fiberglass? It’s the best A Blue Hawaiian Fiberglass Pool is known as the “permanent pool.”

Not only does fiberglass never deteriorate, it actually strengthens with age!

Fiberglass is 17 times stronger than concrete with a flexible strength of 54,000 psi, allowing up to 12 inches of flexibility. That’s movement that destroys most pools.

These pools also carry a 35-year limited warranty against leaking caused by structural defects in the laminate.

Unlike concrete or vinyl liner pools, fiberglass pools never have to be drained for liner replacement, acid washing, remarciting, replastering, or painting. This can save the pool owner thousands of dollars!

Fiberglass pools have a smooth, nonporous surface that doesn’t harbor resident algae, making cleaning 90 percent easier. In addition, they do not require

large amounts of chlorine, algaecides or other sanitizer, therefore resulting in up to 66 percent less cost in chemicals.

These pools are built in a modern factory under a strict quality control standard, with constant supervision, not in a backyard like concrete and vinyl pools.

They can be installed quickly with a minimum of disruption to your home and neighborhood. Fiberglass pools are also swimmer friendly – no more skinned knees or torn bathing suits due to a rough plaster surface.

You also save money on pool heating costs. Fiberglass pool walls act as an insulator allowing you to cut back the time your pool filter pump has to run, reducing your pool heating and electric cost.

ROOF from page 6 should be OK as long as you have a good quality window with proper installation on a pitched roof.

Ventilation, Insulation, Radiation. A repair we often find in the summer occurs in homes that are older and need to be properly balanced for proper air flow. If you don’t have good air flow through the attic, shingles will prematurely fail and cause leaks. The sun beating down on the roof raises the surface temperature by 20 to 40 degrees daily! The last thing you want is for the underside of the roof to be heated and “cooking.” Having at least 20 inches of attic insulation and a radiation barrier will reduce the inside attic temperature by 50 degrees, making your home cooler and the AC working less, saving your energy bill!

The lifestyle they deserve, the price you can afford Suddenly, and without warning, our parents look to us for help with lifescale decisions, just as we looked to them for guidance and wisdom throughout our youth.

When did this happen?

How did these roles switch so perfectly? How will we fulfill their needs as thoroughly as they fulfilled ours? From our perspective, they seemed to do so sometimes effortlessly. We trusted their good judgment in matters that bewildered us. We knew, without being told, that they acted with our best interests at heart; their children's wellbeing, safety, and happiness were paramount among their priorities.

More often than not, their decisions were the right ones. Though we may not have immediately seen their vision from our short-sighted, youthful perspective, we can look back on the results and admire the wisdom and love they demonstrated. All other matters aside, our parents only wanted the best for us, and to put us, as best they could, in situations that gave us the chance to grow and prosper.

As the years have passed, these roles have quietly changed hands. It is now our turn to provide guidance and care that will help them experience the well-being, safety, and happiness they deserve. After a lifetime of responsibilities, our senior loved ones have earned the right to be relieved of mundane, everyday concerns, so they can spend their energy and time on those pursuits they enjoy

most.

This transition to a “senior lifestyle” may require the sale of the old house, arrangements for ongoing physical assistance and medical oversight, coordination of leisure activities and transportation, and/or dietary supervision. We need to ensure that their unique requirements are met, now and in the future, in an environment of encouragement, relaxation, comfort, and opportunity. We want them to be nearby, allowing for frequent visits with our kids and ourselves. We want them to have friends, and a social calendar as full or empty as they decide it should be.

Dignity. Viability.

Flexibility. Safety.

Essentially, we love them, and we want them to feel at home. The time may be now to start speaking gently with those you love about a move to an easier, more comfortable lifestyle; a transition to “Assisted Living.”

We ask ourselves: • Which senior community, among the myriad that try to lure us, can fulfill our loved ones' basic needs while providing all the comforts of home to which they've become so accustomed?

• Which senior community provides the highest level of professional medical care?

• Which senior community can administer varied levels of care as needs change?

• Which senior community will provide the most beautiful surroundings?

• Which senior com-

Cedar Village expanding for the future Cedar Village Retirement Community, located in Mason, Ohio, is in the midst of a major remodel and reconstruction project of its 300,000square-foot facility to increase its shortterm rehabilitation unit by 70 percent.

Divided into multiple construction phases, the project will create new and expanded therapy space for inpatients and outpatients, a new clinic area, a remodeled ambulance entrance, an additional elevator and updated resident rooms on two units. Cedar Village currently has 29 dedicated beds for shortterm, skilled rehabilitation and a therapy gym designed for 15 people.

“Over the past 14 years as people are living longer, healthier lives, they want to recover quickly after an illness or injury and get back to their lives,” said Carol Silver Elliott, CEO and president of Cedar Village. “In order to accommodate the growth and demand for therapy services, we’ve embarked on this major construction project to expand the use of our facility. This renovation will help us meet our current demand for rehabilitation services and positions us well for the future.”

Silver Elliott said the $3.5 million expansion also has the potential to create new jobs. General Contractor Turnbull Wahlert will oversee the con-

struction project and Perkins Eastman is the architect. Once completed, the new 50-bed short-term unit will be at the forefront for rehabilitation care in Cincinnati, offering private rooms with full, private baths, Wi-Fi, flat screen TVs, cable, DVD players, refrigerators and phones. In addition, specialized programming and activities will be offered for those on the rehabilitation units. The final stage of the construction project will be to add an upgraded ambulance entrance and a dedicated elevator for admissions and rehabilitation. The projected completion date is expected to be in late 2011. “During the construction project, no resident rooms will be taken out of service and all disruptions are being kept to a minimum. There are various office moves that have taken place, some short term and some long term,” said Silver Elliott. “But our entire staff is dedicated to this process and knows it will strengthen our future. Our vision is that aging be an enriching and fulfilling experience. This is one way we are making that a reality.”
