At the time of printing this edition of Retirement Connection, our community is dealing with the Coronavirus Pandemic. As much as it is causing havoc to our health, society norms, and daily life... I am hopeful that there is light at the end of the tunnel. There is definitely a strain on our healthcare system and economy, but I continue to be impressed with the providers that I connect with daily. I am seeing skilled nursing facilities sharing resources with other providers; assisted living communities are helping families stay connected with video calls to their loved ones; homecare communities picking up groceries for their clients in addition to their normal care responsibilities.

As much as everyone is feeling a new burden, I feel very honored to work with so many people that care so deeply for the seniors in our community.

While this pandemic continues, we are making every effort to maintain communications with the public, as well as providers.

We have posted a resource page at RetirementConnection.com/COVID to keep you updated. This page has CDC and state updates, resources for food and supplies, and an update on closures and cancellations, as well as other resources. Another resource we have developed online is CareAvailability.com where families and providers can search online for

real-time housing and care available in your area. This website is free for providers to post their availability, and no contact details are asked from families to access information.

Retirement Connection is provided free of charge because our sponsors/ advertisers have provided financial support to maintain and update the guide and the website. Please return the favor by contacting our sponsors, when you encounter a need for their services.

Additional copies of the guide may be found at: Area Agency on Aging offices, Libraries, Senior Centers, Hospitals, Housing Communities, and local events. If your physician’s office, church, or other organization would like additional copies, we are happy to provide these at no cost.

Please call us, visit our website or email us at: Mktg@RetirementConnection.com to order as many as you need.

This section is alphabetical and includes hundreds of services and organizations that work with older adults, those with disabilities and their families. This section includes everything from Caregiver Resources, Social Security, Care Management, Senior Centers, Upcoming Events, etc.

OR

Begin by reviewing the Housing Definitions at the beginning of the section to determine which level of care best fits your needs. Then turn to the easy to read comparison grids; which are separated into 5 primary care levels: Independent Living, Assisted Living/Residential Care, Adult Foster Homes, Memory Care & Skilled Nursing/Intermediate Care. The communities are separated by county so you can quickly search a specific geographic area. If you are unsure where to begin you may want to contact a Housing Placement & Referral Specialist found at the beginning of the housing section.

Additionally the guide offers ▶ Many featured articles written by local experts, a Caregiver Checklist, and a “Request for Help” form.

Home Care Definitions: Behavioral Health can include the prevention, intervention, treatment, and recovery support to people with addiction and mental health needs. Behavioral health may also include care for patients with memory loss and confusion, but typically includes more intensive treatment and intervention than simple redirection.

Homecare agencies provide non-medical services. Personal care may include: dressing, feeding and personal hygiene to facilitate self-care; homemaking such as housekeeping, shopping, meal preparation, and transportation; or respite care to provided support to the family. The Department of Health licenses home care agencies.

Home Health Care includes skilled nursing services, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech language therapy and medical social services. A home health care agency may choose to be Medicare certified to be reimbursed for their services. Home health agencies may also teach you how to care for yourself.

In-Home Care/Personal Care is care related to activities of daily living. Care may be provided by Home Health or Homecare Agencies. These services are typically not covered by medical insurance or Medicare and do not require a physician’s order.

Intravenous Therapy is any medical treatments/medications that need to be introduced to the body via a patient’s veins. Numerous IV Therapies can be provided in-home under supervision of an MD. Some of these include: inter-infective/antibiotic therapies, hydration therapy, pain management, chemotherapy and central line care and maintenance.

Master of Social Work (MSW) is a master’s degree in the field of social work. MSWs help promote more integrated care with education and collaboration among care providers and support services.

Medicaid Certified A joint Federal and state program that helps with medical costs for some people with limited income and resources. Medicaid Certified facilities can offer services to individuals receiving Medicaid benefits in exchange for reimbursement from Medicaid. Some people qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid (these people are called “dual eligibles”).

Medical Social Services are assistance with social and emotional concerns related to an illness including counseling or help finding community resources.

Medicare Certified facilities can offer services to individuals receiving Medicare benefits in exchange for reimbursement from Medicare. A physician’s order is required to be reimbursed by Medicare. Medicare is a Federal health insurance program for those 65 and over for those who meet other criteria.

Nurse Delegated Tasks a licensed registered nurse may delegate specific nursing care tasks to qualified nursing assistants in community-based and in-home care settings. One task taught and delegated to one caregiver for one client. Before delegating a task, the registered nurse delegator must determine that specific criteria are met and ensure that the patient is in a stable and predictable condition.

Psychiatric Services refers to the agency's ability to offer services related to psychiatric support with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of mental illness.

Services may include counseling or administering of medications.

Respite Care is short-term or temporary. It is designed to give families a break from the stress of daily caregiving. Respite care can be for a few hours, overnight, or for days.

The amount of care changes with the needs of the family and the ill or disabled person.

Therapy Services (OT, PT, RT, ST) Occupational Therapy (OT) refers to services to assess and treat patients to help them develop, recover, or maintain daily living and work skills. Occupational therapists help clients not only to improve their basic motor functions and reasoning abilities, but also to compensate for permanent loss of function.

Physical Therapy (PT) refers to services for the treatment and rehabilitation process where a physical therapist will often stretch, strengthen, facilitate muscles, challenge balance, test coordination abilities, teach home exercise programs to enhance basic mobility skills; to help lessen disability and pain and improve overall function and quality of life.

Respiratory Therapy (RT) refers to services for care of patients with deficiencies and abnormalities associated with the cardiopulmonary system. It may include the therapeutic use of medical gases and their equipment, humidification, aerosols, ventilator support, bronchi pulmonary drainage and exercise and respiratory rehabilitation.

Speech Therapy (ST) refers to services to assess and treat speech and swallowing disorders. Speech therapy can treat speech, language, cognitive skills or swallowing.

Wound Ostomy Continence Nurse (WOCN)WOC nurses have advanced training in acute and chronic wound care as well as the physical, emotional, and social issues of patients with ostomies (those who have had some kind of bowel or bladder diversion), stomas, acute and chronic wounds, and incontinence (those with bladder and bowel control and associated skin care issues).

What is Telehealth?

Telehealth is broadly defined as the use of communications technologies to provide and support health care at a distance.

Telehealth has become a valuable tool for improved health thanks to combined advances in a number of areas including communications, computer science, informatics, and medical technologies.

Today, telehealth is often associated with remote monitoring of a patient’s condition; for instance, blood pressure, heart rate, and other measurements of health status can be obtained by a device worn by the patient and electronically sent to medical personnel.

Remote patient monitoring (RPM) is a technology enabling patients to be monitored outside of conventional clinical settings, such as in the home.

RPM requires sensors on a device that wirelessly transmits or stores physiological data for review by a health professional.

Incorporating RPM in chronic disease measurement can significantly improve an individual’s quality of life, particularly when patients are managing complex processes, such as home hemodialysis. For example, in diabetes management, the real-time transmission of blood glucose and blood pressure readings enables immediate alerts for patients and healthcare providers to intervene when needed.

Telehomecare (THC) provides the remote care and reassurance needed to allow people with chronic conditions, dementia or those at high risk of falling to remain living in their own homes. The approach focuses on reacting to emergency events and raising a help response quickly. Deterioration can be spotted at an early stage before an accident occurs.

Indicates website link available at www.RetirementConnection.com

Advanced systems use sensors to monitor serious changes in chronic conditions as

well as other health risks including floods, fires and gas leaks. Such sensors can also alert caregivers if a person with dementia leaves the house. When a sensor is activated a radio signal is sent to a central unit in the user’s home, which automatically calls a monitoring center where appropriate action can be taken such as contacting a caregiver, family member or doctor, as appropriate, or sending emergency services.

Medical diagnosis and treatment at the “point-of-care” refers to the ability to test and treat patients rapidly at sites close to where they live, rather than coming to the doctor or hospital for tests, waiting days or weeks for results, and then returning to the doctor for treatment. Pointof-care medicine is particularly useful for communities with limited access to large healthcare facilities, such as rural or lowresource areas.

Point-of-care medicine relies on portable diagnostic and monitoring devices that can be delivered to remote areas, combined with telehealth technologies. Such systems allow health care workers in remote areas to test patients and instantly send the results to experts to make a diagnosis and send back instructions for proper care.

Portable devices have been developed that can measure blood gases, electrolytes, blood chemistries, and glucose levels. This capability greatly enhances health care for patients in remote and underserved areas.

“Savvy Solutions” to Find (and Afford) A Great Caregiver Over 90% of seniors want to spend their retirement years at home. However, the crippling effects of aging rob many seniors of their desire to age in place with dignity and grace. Add to that the economic strain of making one’s nest egg last for the rest of your life and you can see why some seniors are concerned about the dream of aging in place during their golden years.

At some point, the best solution is a competent care team including a compassionate caregiver in the home. In the short term it can be a transition. In the long run it can be heavenly.

To start, consider using an In-home care agency vs an individual as agencies take the liability of accidents (workers comp), breakage and various employer taxes off your plate and handle them for you. They also do the necessary due diligence like training and background checks BEFORE the caregiver comes to your home. They also monitor the caregiver’s performance.

So, what about payment? Can you afford to pay for good care? The answer is usually yes, and the following ways to pay may be helpful in your search.

1. Does insurance cover caregivers?

Long Term Care Insurance covers agency caregivers but not independent caregivers.

An agency can help you with the paperwork to get started and submit proof of care to the Long Term Care company. Long Term Care companies vary in what they cover so speak with a financial advisor or have the care agency field manager review your policy.

2. Did you serve your county?

Are you a veteran? Was/is your spouse a veteran? You could qualify for about $2,000 of caregiving per month. There are many VA programs so dust off that DD214, call to find out what caregiving you can receive from the VA. It may require some red tape so ask for help. It can definitely be worth it!

26

3. Cash is King Of course, you can pay with cash, credit card, automatic bank transfer (think auto payment) or check. Talk your agency to see what options are available.

Indicates website link available at www.RetirementConnection.com

We have the

Solution!

4. Let Medicaid come to your aid Medicaid is another government program that pays for caregivers in the home. You must be lower income to qualify and need help with personal care.

5. Spend down to stock up If you make too much to qualify for Medicaid then it’s possible to start spending some on caregiving now and then apply later for Medicaid as your income gets closer to their limits. We call that a “spend down” and it’s a useful strategy.

6. Get a family plan Many families get together to create a plan to provide care.

The possibilities are endless and flexible over time.

7. Convert an outdated life insurance policy Did you know that you may be able to convert a life insurance policy into a pile of money for medical expenses, including caregiving?

The dream of living in the safety and security of your own home through your retirement years may be more attainable than you think. These are just a few of the ways to access care. Reach out to a reputable and award-winning caregiving agency who has great reviews and you can enjoy those golden years with less stress, more independence and more health than you thought possible!

Complementary Therapies for Dementia Considering the growing numbers of those afflicted with dementia and specifically, Alzheimer's Disease (AD), non-pharmacological treatments play an important role in preventing and relieving symptoms. Leading complementary therapies include: Animal Assisted Therapy (AAT) AAT is a goal-oriented, planned, and structured therapy involving pets that is directed and delivered by health professionals. Older adults who own pets report less loneliness and have increased activity. Pet ownership enhances communication and provides comfort.

A control trial using stuffed animals resulted in increased gratification and awareness in adults within a memory care community. Also noted were decreased sadness and anxiety, and a significant increase in overall happiness.

Music Therapy (MT) The therapeutic use of music to reduce anxiety, improve cognitive function, promote physical rehabilitation, or enhance communication typically involves singing, listening to music, playing instruments, or composing music. Many studies have demonstrated that due to the absence of side effects and affordability factor, MT becomes an ideal intervention option.

A qualified music therapist conducts and mediates music treatment according to patients based on psychological and rehabilitative approaches, established by the World Federation of Music Therapy.

SOUTHERN OREGON’S CHOICE IN HOMECARE

Dance / Movement Therapy (DMT) The psychotherapeutic use of movement to promote emotional, social, cognitive, and physical integration of the individual, for the purpose of improving health and well-being. DMT is especially promising in treating patients with Parkinson's Disease.

A four-week pilot was conducted involving six clients with dementia attending dance sessions with staff members in a residential dementia care community.

Agitation scores, measured using the Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory (CMAI) were reduced in four out of six residents. There was an overall average reduction in pre and post scores and it lifted the spirits of both residents and staff.

Our Caregivers Our caregivers have a strong employment history in providing professional, reliable care and are trained on new methods and best practices within the industry.

Our qualification process includes: • Phone & in-person interviews • 6 Months verifiable caregiving experience • Reference checks • Nationwide criminal background checks • DMV records check • Random drug screening

Aromatherapy (AT) A specialized segment of phytotherapy that uses very concentrated essential oils extracted from different organs (flowers, leaves, bark, branches, rind or roots) of aromatic plants that are administered via inhalation or topical application and massage for several, minor clinical uses and therapeutic purposes. The aromatic molecules bind to olfactory epithelium acceptors bringing about healing properties to enhance feelings of well-being. The remarkable increase in the production of essential oils accounts for the growth and studies in the scientific community. The most used aromatherapeutic treatments in dementia are lemon balm and lavender, both have been used in traditional medicine for centuries.

Source: University of Calabria, 30 March 2017

As with all adjunct interventions, patients should not discontinue medications and should follow the medical advice of health professionals when exploring the above co-therapeutic options.

Interview with a Local Caregiver, John Howell Caring for a loved one with dementia can be challenging and at times, overwhelming.

Currently, more than 16 million Americans provide unpaid care for people living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias. Southern Oregon resident, John Howell, has firsthand experience—his mother-in-law lived with dementia for approximately 10 years.

Now, John is a caregiver for his wife of more than 43 years, Jane, who is living with Alzheimer’s disease. He shares his personal caregiving insights and tips below: 1. What do you wish your friends and family knew about caring for someone with Alzheimer's or another dementia?

It’s important for caregivers, friends and family to be patient and understand that YOU may need to adapt and change, as the person living with the diagnosis can’t.

Also, breathe and talk about your feelings and issues openly. This can help others to understand that this disease is a process.

2. Self-care for the caregiver is so important in helping prevent caregiver burnout. What kinds of things do you do for yourself?

I keep outside interests and projects. A break for a couple of days is very helpful when possible!

3. What kind of resources would you recommend to caregivers?

It can be very isolating for the care partner without utilizing help and resources. The Alzheimer’s Association website and free support group have been very helpful.

I’m also involved with the Medford Senior Center and participate in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s® with our team, Chitwood Segue!

4. Do you have any tips for caregivers based off your own caregiving experience?

Our friends and family have been aware and involved throughout this entire process.

A compassionate care helper and a personal counselor can be very beneficial both to the person living with the disease and their caregiver.

Whether you provide daily caregiving, participate in decision making, or simply care about a person with the disease–the Alzheimer's Association has resources to help. Visit alz.org or call the 24/7 Helpline at 1.800.272.3900.

Living Well with Parkinson’s Living with Parkinson's can make recovery from illness, injury or surgery a long and difficult road. It can be a challenge to ask for support from friends and family when faced with an unexpected need. With guidance, loved ones and acquaintances are often more than willing to help.

Here are some steps you can take, as a Person with PD or care partner to best prepare yourself for a planned or unexpected surgery, illness or injury.

 Think of specific tasks that will help decrease your stress level. People often are met with loved ones saying "let me know if there is anything I can do to help!" so consider having specific ideas in mind.

Examples of tasks could include homecooked meals, short social visits, light housekeeping tasks, grocery store runs or rides to doctor appointments.

 Consider using a website like "Lotsa Helping Hands" (www.lotsahelpinghands.com) to organize support. If you are not particularly tech savvy, see if someone can set up and manage a care page for you.

 Find out about local social services.

Most communities have a range of services that cover basic needs like meals and in-home care, and a good place to start in finding these is your local Aging and Disability Resource Center at 855-6732372. Also, please consider calling the Parkinson's Resources of Oregon helpline for ideas and support in connecting to resources in your community.

 If you don't already have an "Aware in Care" Patient safety kit - consider ordering one from the Parkinson's Foundation (they're free!). This kit includes important information on PD to help your care providers provide the best treatment possible.

 When hospitalized, many people need to spend time in a skilled rehabilitation facility before going home. While in rehab, keep in mind that you may have a lot of free time, and it may still be helpful to arrange visits with friends and family to help boost your mood.

The last weeks of life are as much a time for healing, as it is for dying. This healing can occur for family, friends, and the dying person when given the chance. It is emotional healing. It can happen in the worst of situations, but when the dying person feels safe and cared for, their loved ones have the time to be with them without worry. In moments like these, healing is more likely to occur

One of the ways healing happens at the end of life is through the support of mindful caregivers. Volunteers trained in mindful care-giving help dying people feel safe and cared for.

What does mindful care-giving support look like?  As a volunteer sits at a resident’s bedside she listens as stories and fears are shared. She just listens, supports and validates.  Volunteers take turns holding vigil at the bedside of a resident who has no family in the area and is afraid of being alone at the time of death.  A volunteer gently washes the hands of a resident with a clean, warm, wet, washcloth. This resident can no longer lift the spoon to her mouth so the volunteer stays to gently assist, giving the resident all the time she needs to slowly savor her food.  A volunteer massages the feet of a resident. The massage relaxes him and he drifts off to sleep.  To create poignant memories of a last holiday together, and provide normalcy during a time of change, volunteers prepare and serve a Thanksgiving feast to residents and families.  A keyboardist plays music. She reads the atmosphere and senses the mood in the house before choosing her selections.

What does Hospice look like?

Hospice is the one medical program that sees the entire family unit as the recipient of care. The Hospice providers not only care for the physical symptoms of the hospice patient provided by the hospice nurse, but the hospice social worker and chaplain provide emotional and spiritual support to the patient and their loved ones. All Medicare Certified Hospice programs include volunteers who can provide support and respite to the family and also a home health aide is available to provide baths and personal care. Many hospice patients are cared for at home by their family members with the support of visiting hospice providers. Sometimes staying home is not an option, so hospice care can be provided in other community based care facilities. In addition to the visiting hospice providers, hospice covers the cost of medical equipment like hospital beds and wheelchairs, and they also cover the cost of pharmaceuticals required to keep a hospice patient comfortable. After the death of the patient, bereavement support is offered to the loved ones. The focus is quality of life, especially when hospice is invited in to help earlier.

Every action, large and small, contributes to an environment where hospice patients and their loved ones can say those final words and have those final experiences with a sense of peace.

When this kind of healing happens it spreads out into our communities through the living. It leaves a healthier person behind…one that has found some measure of peace.

Patients Have an Option to Cut Costs As Americans we have access to some of the most advanced medical care available.

This is both exciting and disconcerting at the same time. There has been a priority put on screening and wellness programs across our country and Oregon is not left behind on this trek. The question arising then is one of concern for the budget to consider the cost of screenings and wellness care available.

their physician, whether consulting, primary or both, and also includes where they have imaging done. Imaging can include items such as X-ray, CT scan, MRI, or Ultrasounds. You may seek out the imaging services of an imaging center or the hospital. Often times the independent medical facility will provide services at a cost, on average, two-thirds less than the hospital.

National health expenditures are projected to rise an average rate of 5.6 percent per year between now and 2025. For example, if we take this percentage and apply it to a fairly priced abdominal MRI (with and without contrast) of $1,300.00 (according to Healthcare Bluebook.com) this would become $1372.00 next year and $1448.00 the year after. *Depending on where you live and your insurance coverage this same MRI could be $900 or even $13,500.00

References:

Knowledge of rising costs in this trillion dollar industry is not enough. It is important that you as a patient, know your rights. As a consumer, one can research the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services site, American Hospital Association, Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, or even your insurance carrier.

It is important to understand that you have choices. The Patient's Bill of Rights originally established by the American Hospital Association outlines 12 rights and expectations. These original twelve have been adapted by many facilities and made to fit their specific patient community. The Patient’s Bill of Rights was also addressed in the Affordable Care Act. These rights not only allow, yet encourage a patient to be an active participant in their health care.

Housing Definitions: Adult Day Care Programs offer a protective setting during the day for those who cannot be left alone due to health care and social needs. The structured program within a community setting offers: socialization, planned activities, care services, companionship, and meals. Adult Day Care provides daytime respite for the caregiver who typically works, needs time for other responsibilities, or simply to take a break. Some programs are designed for older adults with dementia and/or physical limitations. Day Care programs in senior housing communities that are listed in this guide must be able to accept non-residents to be included.

Adult Care Homes or Family Care Homes are private residences that provide a home-like setting, and serve 6 or less residents. The caregiver may perform several functions such as personal care, housekeeping, activities, and group meals. There are three levels of Adult Foster Care Home licenses. The classification system is based on the level of care the Adult Foster Home may provide to residents who live in the home as well as the experience and training of the providers and their ability to assist residents with: personal hygiene, mobility, eating, dressing, toileting, and behavior management. Residents may require very light assistance or may be dependent with several care needs; it is best to ask individual locations for their specific policies and license.

Assisted Living Communities are state regulated rental properties where six or more residents may reside. Care assistance is available, including: medication management, bathing, dressing, toileting, and eating. Some may be fully self-contained private living units with a lockable door, private bathroom, and kitchenette facilities. Accommodations are typically in a home-like setting and may range from a shared bedroom with a common bathroom to private apartments with a kitchenette and a private bathroom. The fee schedule is regular monthly rent along with additional fees for specific services and amenities.

Assisted living communities are best suited for individuals who want to remain as independent as possible and who are able to direct their own care. Pricing can vary greatly depending on the level of care provided and the size and amenities of each apartment.

CCRCs (Continuing Care Retirement Communities) also known as Life Plan Communities, include a continuum of care from independent living, assisted living, residential care, and skilled nursing services all on one campus allowing individuals to live within the same community as their needs progress through the spectrum of care.

They typically offer the full selection of amenities associated with retirement living and an endowment fee, in addition to a monthly maintenance fee, can be expected.

86

Indicates website link available at www.RetirementConnection.com Independent Living Communities provide residents an independent living setting without the burden of home ownership. Typically, residency is established on a monthly rental basis. Residents live in fully equipped private apartments or cottages from studios to large two-bedroom units that may be rental-assisted or market-rate depending on the community. Amenities and hospitality services such as housekeeping, linen service, transportation, and social and recreational activities may be included for an additional charge or may not be available at all. These communities do not provide assistance with activities of daily living or personal care.

Memory Care or Dementia Communities offer or provide care for residents with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia in a home-like environment. These communities must receive an endorsement and are governed by additional regulations that are specifically intended to support individuals with dementia, including: a secure building that alerts staff if a resident has exited, a secure outdoor area that provides outdoor freedom safely, interior finishes that are non-glare and well lit, and visual contrasts between floors, walls, and doorways. Alzheimer’s units must also have programs, which include: gross motor, self care, social, craft, sensory enhancement, and outdoor activities.

Rehabilitation & Therapy is treatment for an injury, illness, or pain with the goal of restoring function, including nursing and therapy services. Rehab is ordered by a physician and services are provided by nurses and physical, occupational, and speech therapists. Examples include working with a physical therapist to help you walk and with an occupational therapist to help you get dressed.

Respite Care is short term relief for family caregivers to take a break from the caregiving responsibilities and allows for a healthier and better quality of life for both the caregiver and care receiver. Respite services include: companionship, personal care, recreational activities, and security. Respite care can be provided as short stay or for a longer period that allows the family caregiver to go on vacation or a business trip. Longer duration respite care is generally found at select senior housing communities although some Companion services may provide this service in the home.

Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) or Nursing Homes are state licensed facilities that provide a safe therapeutic environment for individuals who require rehabilitative care or can no longer live independently due to functional or cognitive impairment. Nursing Homes offer 24-hour skilled nursing care and medical services by registered nurses and support professionals. This is the highest level of care that can be provided that is not hospitalization. Additionally, nursing facilities offer residents planned social, recreational, and spiritual activities. Nursing facilities are most appropriate for people who need 24-hour medical oversight and a protective/structured setting. Most residents must share their room, but residents are allowed to bring personal items to encourage a more home-like atmosphere.

The Senior Living Journey: Where to Start, What to Ask. One of the most difficult things for an adult child to navigate is how to help an aging parent when they require assistance with the activities of daily living. From broaching the subject, to finding the community best suited to meet their needs currently and long-term, there is a lot to consider.

So, when is the best time to start the conversation?

The earlier the better! Studies show that 7 out of 10 seniors will require long-term care. Instead of waiting until you’re dealing with a “crisis” situation, proactively address the subject with your parent(s). By approaching the conversation with honesty and care, you’re likely to have a productive and harmonious outcome.

How do you broach the subject with your parents?

If you start to notice mom is not keeping her house as clean as she once did. Or dad is forgetting when and how to take his regular medication. Or perhaps your loved one has made comments about grooming and dressing being more challenging, or they’re feeling lonely – these are great conversation starters. The most important part of this process is to listen to your loved one’s preferences and needs.

Where do you start the search?

98

Once you understand more about the needs and preferences of your parent(s), start exploring your local senior living options online. Not only does it provide you with a tremendous amount of information about available communities, it does so in a non-committing, nonthreatening way. Share what you find with your loved one, and together whittle down

options before scheduling a personal tour of the communities on your list.

What should you look for in an assisted living community?

A lot of communities tout a long list of activities and social happenings. But you need to dig deeper to find out how they engage and support their residents by using the Six Dimensions of Wellness, which are physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, occupational and social.

What resources are available to provide care?

In addition to engaging the whole person you will want to find out how they provide and deliver care. Do they provide all services in the community and/or do they work with outside agencies (such as rehabilitative or hospice care) for additional services. Be sure to also ask how they hire and train their caregivers and how they deliver care to residents.

But don’t just take their word for it. Take some time to enjoy a meal or activity in the community and talk with residents and associates. You and your loved one will learn a wealth of information and get a real feel for the community.

The bottom line, no matter where you are in your conversation or search for a senior living community, know that our team members at Crystal Terrace are ready to be a resource to you. We welcome you to contact us at any time.

Assisted Living Resources Licensing requirements for assisted living facilities vary by state and can be known by as many as 26 different names including: residential care, board and care, congregate care, and personal care. A complete list of each state’s terminology and state regulations can be found at: http://aspe.hhs.gov/daltcp/ reports/04alcom.htm

Choosing A Community A good match between a community and a resident’s needs depends as much on the philosophy and services as it does on the quality of care.

The following suggestions can help you get started in your search for a safe and appropriate assisted living community:

• What are your future needs and how will the community meet those needs?

•

Is the community close to family and friends? Are there any shopping centers or other businesses nearby (within walking distance)?

• Visit each community more than once, sometimes unannounced.

• Visit at meal times, sample the food,

These Steps Should Also Be Considered:

• Contact your state’s long-term care ombudsman to see if any complaints have been filed against the assisted living community you are interested in. In many states, the ombudsman checks on conditions at assisted living units and nursing homes.

• If the assisted living community is connected to a nursing home, ask for information about it too. (Information on nursing homes can be found on the Medicare website at http://www. medicare.gov/nhcompare/home.asp).

It is a good idea to review The Substantiated Facility Abuse Complaints at https://ltclicensing.oregon.gov This website contains Facility Adult Protective Services (APS) investigations that constitute abuse as determined by Corrective Action Coordinators.

What is Skilled Nursing?

A skilled nursing facility is designed to help care for patient’s who have needs which require 24-hour, 7 days a week nursing care including tube feeding, complex wound care, IV antibiotics, and daily therapy. Candidates for skilled nursing are both those who have planned surgeries/ procedures (hip or knee replacement etc.) and those who have an acute and unplanned medical issue (UTI, sepsis, cellulitis, etc…) At the hospital, the patient will be assigned to a case manager who will be responsible for letting the patient and family know that skilled nursing is recommended, ask which facility they prefer and work with the facility of choice to facilitate the admission.

Of course, always feel comfortable stopping in to see the Admission Coordinator at your local skilled nursing facility to ask any questions, discuss concerns and get a clear picture of how the admission process will look.

help from their primary care provider. It is best to start by calling the skilled nursing facility of choice to review your options.

They will walk you through the process from there.

Not all skilled nursing residents are there for short-term rehabilitation from a surgery or illness. Some residents are there under what is called long-term care. Long-term care (LTC) is designed to care for those who will need round the clock nursing care for the foreseeable future. Usually, these residents have a terminal condition, disability, or illness which impacts their ability to safely manage activities of daily living. These types of admissions will also go through the Admission Coordinator at the skilled nursing facility, so they should be able to answer any and all questions you may have.

It’s important to remember that there are people who work in this profession/ industry and it’s their job to make sure this process isn’t any more difficult than it needs to be. Never hesitate to call your local skilled nursing facility’s admissions coordinator to find out if skilled nursing is the correct route to take for your loved one.

While most skilled nursing facility patients come after a hospital stay, it is possible to admit from home. If your loved one has met the qualifying hospital stay within the last 30 days, they may be able to admit with

How is it covered?

Medicare covers skilled nursing care if the patient has a “qualifying hospital stay”. A qualifying stay means your loved one was admitted as inpatient in a hospital for three consecutive midnights. An emergency room visit, observation stay, and outpatient services do not count towards the qualifying stay. If the qualifying hospital stay is met and the patient continues to have a skilled nursing need, Medicare will cover up to 100 days. The first 20 days of Skilled Care are covered at 100% and days 21-100 will have a co-pay of $176.00 per day. If the patient has a supplemental insurance or Medicaid, that plan will often pick-up the co-pay for them.
