Fall 2018 Dear Albuquerque Caregivers, Taking care of someone who needs you can be one of the most important roles you will ever play in your life. And while caregiving can be challenging, it also offers some of the most rewarding life experiences. I’m grateful to share the latest edition of the Family Caregivers Guide, which is full of valuable resources that I hope you will find helpful. Albuquerque’s family caregivers dedicate countless hours of care so their loved ones can continue to live independently. As the largest generation in our lifetime continues to age, the need for family care only increases. This adds to the physical, emotional, and financial stress that some caregivers experience, and that is why it’s on us to stand up as One Albuquerque to help ensure caregivers have access to the resources and assistance they need to care for their loved ones. One of the common threads that weaves its way through Albuquerque’s multicultural diversity is the way in which we value our seniors and look to them for wisdom as we work together to move our city forward. The generations that have come before us have worked hard to grow our communities and create a special place for future generations to live, work, and play. And because of this, it becomes our responsibility to care for Albuquerque’s seniors and help them with their needs so they can live independently and thrive in our community. Please accept my sincere gratitude to every family caregiver for the selfless work you put in day in and day out. I encourage you to take advantage of the resources available in the Family Caregivers Guide and to also check out the City of Albuquerque Department of Senior Affairs’ many programs and resources for seniors in our city.

Warm Regards,

Timothy M. Keller Mayor

Fall 2018 Dear Compassionate Caregivers, It is our privilege at the City of Albuquerqueâ€™s Department of Senior Affairs to work alongside you to care for individuals in our community. Since coming on board as Director of the Senior Affairs Department in March, I am impressed by the compassion and commitment of caregivers in our community and how fortunate we are, as a Department, to have various programs and services available to support you through your work. The Department of Senior Affairs is proud to be included in this latest edition of the Family Caregiver Resource Guide. We recognize that close to 80 percent of all long term care in the United States is provided free by family members from the National Alliance for Caregiving, which is also what we experience here in our beautiful state. As our population continues to grow, there is an increased need for caregivers in our community, and we are here to be a resource to you and connect you to senior services throughout the city, including home services like minor home repairs and home delivered meals for the frail, homebound older adults who cannot prepare meals for themselves. With your assistance, we can continue to share resources and programs with those in need in our community. Thank you again for your valued dedication to support and care for our elders. Sincerely, ptpubco.com

CHRONIC DISEASE SELF-MANAGEMENT EDUCATION PROGRAMS SUMMARY The Chronic Disease SelfManagement Education Programs (CDSMEP) include six (6) evidencebased self-management programs developed by Stanford University’s School of Medicine Patient Education Research Center. Each CDSMEP is designed to support individuals in developing skills and coping strategies to manage their symptoms related to chronic health conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, hypertension, lung disease, etc.

ptpubco.com

The Chronic Disease SelfManagement Program (CDSMP) is designed for adults with ANY chronic health condition and caregivers; the Diabetes SelfManagement Program (DSMP) is for people managing Type 2 diabetes and their families / caregivers; the Cancer: Thriving and Surviving (CTS) program is for cancer survivors and caregivers; the Chronic Pain Self-Management Program (CPSMP) is for anyone dealing with chronic pain; the Positive Self-Management Program (PSMP) is for people living with HIV; and the new Workplace Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (wCDSMP) is for those still working and also managing a chronic health condition.

All CDSMEP are guided workshops delivered two and one-half hours, once a week, for six weeks, in community settings such as senior centers, churches, and health care facilities, etc.

These workshops are licensed through Stanford / SelfManagement Resource Center and are facilitated by two certified Workshop Leaders, one or both of whom live with a chronic health condition. Subjects covered include: • Techniques for dealing with problems such as frustration, fatigue, pain, and isolation; • Appropriate physical activity for maintain and improving strength, flexibility, and endurance and preventing falls; • Making decisions • Appropriate use of medications; • Communicating effectively with family, friends, and health professionals; • Healthy eating; and • How to evaluate new treatments. CDSMEP workshops are highly participatory where approximately 10-15 participants focus on building skills to manage their conditions by sharing experiences and providing mutual support. These programs do not conflict with an individual’s existing health improvement program or treatment plan, but rather are designed to enhance regular treatment and disease-specific education and management. The CDSMEP are FREE and run throughout the year. To enroll, please call 880-2800 or toll-free (505) 850-0176. For the most current workshop offerings, please visit http:// pathstohealthnm.net

More than 38,000 individuals in New Mexico suffer from Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia. Statistics show that about 60% of these individuals will wander at some time or another. The Albuquerque Police Department and the Department of Senior Affairs are working together through the Silver Alert program to ensure missing persons with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia are quickly returned to their family or caregiver. Silver Alert is a public notification system to broadcast information about missing persons who suffer from Alzheimer’s disease of other dementia. The system notifies the public of a missing senior using television, radio, electronic billboards, reverse 911 and traffic signs. The public is asked to call a phone number if they see the missing person. Individuals who are 60 or older and suffer from Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia are eligible to register for Silver Alert. The Department of Senior Affairs will place vital information and a photo of the individual on a USB drive and give the drive to the family member/caregiver who accompanied the person to the Silver Alert registration. When the family member/caregiver determines that their loved one is missing, they are asked to call 242-COPS. An officer from the Albuquerque Police Department will come to the residence, or the place from which the person is missing, and initiate an investigation. If the person is not found immediately, the Silver Alert will be issued, notifying all media sources of the importance of finding the individual as quickly as possible. The alert will contain a photograph of the person and state their name, description, age, relevant medical conditions, vehicle type if applicable and their last know whereabouts. If you had previously registered your loved one with Silver Alert, this important information will be on the USB drive in your possession that you already completed with the assistance of the Department of Senior Affairs. At that time, you will turn over the USB drive that contains this vital information to the Albuquerque Police Office working with you. Registration for Silver Alert is on-going. If you are interested in registering your loved one for Silver Alert, please contact the Department of Senior Affairs at 505-764-6400.
