Letter from the Publisher Dear Readers, From our family to yours, thank you for picking up your copy of Retirement Connection and sharing this resource with your family and friends. Although I have worked in healthcare and senior housing for the past 20 years, the past year has brought new empathy for me personally. I can honestly say that I have used several resources in the guide. I relied on our sponsors for support in several areas, including: legal advice regarding trust and power of attorney for my parents; pain management and hospice care when my best friend was fighting cancer; and insurance options of different plans when I was scheduling knee surgery. Our team has become more aware of the juggling act that family caregivers face on a daily basis. It truly does take a village!

We are a small family business and we greatly appreciate your insight and valuable feedback. We are honored to be the “official resource” for The Alzheimer's Association of Oregon, Asante Medical Centers, Mercy Medical Center, and the ADRC of Jackson and Josephine Counties.

Due to the support of our sponsors, Retirement Connection is available and free to the community. Please return the favor by supporting them when you find a need for their services.

Our goal is to be the most comprehensive local resource for the community and local providers.

The table of contents covers more than 100 topics of information. Please view page 10 for a quick reference on how to best use this guide.

The Caregiver Checklist and Information Request Form are available to provide ongoing support.

Visit RetirementConnection.com for event calendars, a thorough glossary of terms, additional articles, and links to local provider emails and websites.

We will also continue to update the website daily with new listings or changing information. Any updates made after the print date may be seen at RetirementConnection.com/updates.

Additional copies of the guide may be found at Area Agency on Aging offices, Libraries, Senior Centers, Hospitals, Housing Communities, and local events. We have printed 50,000 total copies of this annual publication. 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 additional copies.

2. Community Resources & Services 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.

3. Housing 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.

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.

Home Care Advantages & Common Questions Below is unique insight into the world of caregiving and consideration before choosing the path that is best for you and your loved ones.

Agency Home Care Advantages  Caregiver background checks, reference checks and ongoing drug screening  Liability insurance for accidents and wrong doing, workers compensation insurance for caregiver injuries  Back-up caregivers allow for continuity of care, no breaks in service, and having family/friend to manage  Access to RN’s, Case Managers, & schedulers  Continuing education and training of your caregivers on latest industry techniques,  Industry and Department of Human Services oversight on best practices,  Quality assurance programs to ensure standard of care  Access to long-term care insurance for those with policy in place  Access & assistance with obtaining Veterans Aid & Attendance pension for home care  Peace of mind

Q: Will my Medicare or Health Insurance pay for my services?

A: No, both are medical insurances.

The entire home care industry is nonmedical. The only insurance that ensures a benefit for home care is Long Term Care insurance.

What questions should you ask an agency when deciding on care?

Q1: Do you pay your caregivers as employees or as contract employees?

A: It is a State law that all agencies must employ their caregivers as employees.

Q2: Will I have the same caregiver every shift?

A: Any case that is 5 or fewer days per week and less than 8 hours and one shift per day, should be scheduled with one caregiver. Caregiver availability is a rising challenge so you may need a second caregiver, but you should see the same caregiver(s) on a weekly basis.

 Lower Average Cost: $18/hour Q: Are “Home Health” and “In Home Care” the same thing?

Q3: If I am unsatisfied with my caregiver what can I do?

A: You should have the ultimate choice in your caregiver. It is wise to try and work out issues, as caregivers want to please you and are willing to adapt, but if you don’t have a choice, look elsewhere.

A: Home Health is a medical service for people who are home bound which includes skilled nursing, at-home physical therapy, pain and prescription management, and wound care. Home Care is classified as non-medical assistance with

Improving Balance Can Save Lives One slip can break a hip! Broken hips, hip fractures, and falling are common among seniors. Over 90% of hip fractures are due to falls. Additionally, hip fractures often lead to serious complications.

Good balance can be a lifesaver -literally. A few minutes a day spent on improving balance can mean the difference between a crippling injury from a fall or remaining safe. The first step is to see the doctor for a physical, including a medication review, musculoskeletal check and blood tests for cholesterol and glucose levels.

Exercises for improving balance:  Knee Lifts: Lift the knee as high as the hip using a secure object for support. As strength increases, decrease the tendency to lean on a support, and try holding the leg up for 3 seconds or longer.  Point and Flex: While sitting, point toes and then flex them. Repeat.  Toe Tapping: While sitting, tap toes.

Repeat.  Sit-to-Stand: When necessary, use a chair for support when standing and again when returning to a sitting position. Try to gradually decrease use of support as legs strengthen.  Calf Muscle Strengthener: Hold onto a wall or chair and repeatedly raise up and down on tiptoes. As strength improves, go higher up on toes and try with one foot at a time.

26

 Shin Muscle Strengthener: Lean against a wall with heels placed 7 – 8” from the wall. Lift the toes of both feet off the ground as high as possible.  One-legged Stand: Hold onto a secure object, like a sturdy chair. Lift one leg up and try to maintain balance on the standing leg.  Hip/Thigh Muscle Strengthener: Take extra trips up and down stairs.

Hold the banister with one hand and press the other hand against the wall for safety. If wary of stairs, strengthen the same muscles by getting out of a chair repeatedly.

Professional in-home care agencies can help reduce the risk of falls for seniors through:  Home safety assessments to identify and correct potential hazards  Recommendations for assistive devices, such as ramps, hand railings, and grab bars  Assistance with mobility and safe transfers, including support with tasks like bathing and dressing  Help with strengthening exercises  Safe, accompanied transportation to medical appointments and other outings  And more

Estate Planning: often avoided because “Estate planning is too confusing” or “I don’t have anything to leave behind.”

However, having an estate plan can offer family members peace of mind during a difficult period.

The four main documents in an estate plan are: Will, Trust, Durable Power of Attorney for Finances, and Advance Directive for Health Care.

A Will is a legal instrument that permits a person to make decisions on how their estate will be distributed after death.

Without a Will, State laws dictate how the estate is distributed. A Will does not avoid probate (the court-overseen process for distributing a person’s estate); however, it will ensure your assets are distributed to the people you desire.

One of the simplest ways to avoid probate is through a Trust. The three main “players” in a Trust are the Settlor (the person who’s trust it is, i.e. you), Trustee (the manager of the trust), and Beneficiary. In a conventional living Trust, the Settlor, Beneficiary, and Trustee are initially the same person. It is only when the Settlor (you) becomes unable to handle their own financial affairs that a successor Trustee (chosen by you) takes over the management of the Trust. The Trust assets are used for your benefit, with the remainder beneficiaries receiving an interest in the Trust only after your death (the way your estate passes under a Will).

The Durable Power of Attorney for Finances (DPA) names the person responsible for managing non-trust finances in the event you are unable to manage them yourself. Even in a Trustcentered estate plan, the DPA plays an important role, governing the assets held outside the Trust.

In the event of your incapacity, your successor Trustee will take over and manage your Trust assets while your agent under the DPA will manage all non-trust assets.

An Advance Directive for Health Care allows you to name an agent to speak with the doctors and make health care decisions for you if you are unable to make them on your own.

When properly drafted, an estate plan is a powerful tool not only in the event of person’s death but also during the person’s life. When deciding on a professional to assist you in drawing up your estate plan, be sure to choose someone who specializes in this area of law, so that your plan works effectively not only after your death but during your life as well.

Estate Planning

Estate plans are designed to grow and develop as we do and should be reviewed periodically. I recommend reviewing your plan on an annual basis – you may not need to change it each year, but looking at it each will help keep it fresh in your mind, as well as help ensure any necessary changes are caught and addressed quickly.

Planning Your Doctor Visit How well you and your doctor talk to each other is one of the most important parts of getting good health care.

Unfortunately, talking with your doctor isn't always easy. In the past, the doctor typically took the lead and the patient followed. Today, a good patient-doctor relationship is a partnership. You and your doctor can work as a team.

Creating a basic plan before you go to the doctor can help you make the most of your visit. These tips will make it easier for you and your doctor to cover everything you need to talk about.

Make a List of Your Symptoms

Talking about your health means sharing information about how you feel. Make a list of your symptoms before your visit.

Symptoms can be physical, such as pain, fever, a lump or bump, unexplained weight gain or loss, change in energy level, or having a hard time sleeping.

Symptoms can also involve your thoughts and your feelings.

What to Include

When you list your symptoms, be specific. Your list should include: what the symptom is when it started what time of day it happens and how

long it lasts how often it happens anything that makes it worse or better anything it prevents you from doing.

64

List Your Medications

Your doctor needs to know about ALL the medications you take. Medications include: prescription drugs over-the-counter (non-prescription) drugs vitamins, herbal remedies or supplements laxatives eye drops.

Sometimes doctors may ask you to bring all your medications in a bag to your visit. Other doctors suggest making a list of all your medications to bring to your visit.

Note Dosages, Frequency, Side Effects

If you do make a list of the medications you take, do not forget to write down how much you take and how often you take it. Make sure to tell the doctor if a dose has changed or if you are taking a new medicine since your last visit.

Write down or bring all your medications even if you think that one or some of them are not important. The doctor needs to know everything you take because sometimes medicines cause problems when taken together. Also, sometimes a medicine you take for one health problem, like a headache, can cause another health problem to get worse. Write down any medication allergies you have and any bad side effects you have had with the medicines you take. Also, write down which medications work best for you.

Do You Use Assistive Devices?

Be sure to let your doctor know if you use any assistive devices to help you in your daily activities. Assistive devices can help you see, hear, stand, reach, balance, grasp items, go up or down stairs, and move around. Devices used by older adults may include canes, walkers, scooters, hearing aids, reachers, grab bars, and stair lifts.

What Are Your Everyday Habits?

Be prepared to tell your doctor about where you live, if you drive or how you get around, what you eat, how you sleep, what you do each day, what activities you enjoy, what your sex life is like, and if you smoke or drink alcohol.

Any Other Medical Encounters?

Also, write down and tell your doctor if you had to go to the emergency room, stay in the hospital or see a different doctor, such as a specialist, since your last visit. It may be helpful to bring that doctor's contact information.

What Else to Bring Bring your insurance cards, names and phone numbers of your other doctors, and the phone number of the pharmacy you use. Also, bring your medical records if your doctor does not have them.

Community Resources & Services

To provide the best care, your doctor must understand you as a person and know what your life is like.

Article provided by: National Institutes of Health www.NIHSeniorHealth.gov/ TalkingWithYourDoctor

Be open and honest. It will help your doctor to better understand your medical conditions and figure out the best treatment choices for you.

Any Life Changes?

Sometimes things happen in life that are sad or stressful. Your doctor needs to know about any life changes that have occurred since your last visit because they can affect your health. Examples of life changes are divorce, death of a loved one, or changing where you live.

Your list should include all your life changes but does not need to go into detail. It can be short like "had to sell home and move in with daughter."

The Ins and Outs of a Senior Move Manager Senior Move Managers have the resources and knowledge to save money, find creative results for problems, and greatly reduce stress during an extremely stressful time in your life. Not to mention getting a lot done in a short amount of time, as they do this for a living! Here are the main six tasks of a Move Manager and why you might want to consider hiring one before embarking on your moving adventure.

1. Decluttering and Downsizing – If you’re moving to a smaller home (and odds are you are), you’re going to have to get rid of some of your belongings. Give it to family, sell it, dispose of it, donate it, put it in storage… probably a combination of all five! A Move Manager works with you to identify what goes where, and they do this with compassion knowing these aren’t just belongings, but rather a lifetime of memories.

2. Space Planning – When trying to decide which of your belongings will fit in your new home, it helps to have a Move Manager doing space planning. Measuring rooms and furniture and customized floor plans are all part of the process, and knowing what will fit in your new home prior to the move is key.

68

3. Planning & Coordination – A lot must be considered when planning a move; between getting everything packed, waste removal, estate sales, moving company quotes, and hiring cleaners (just to name a few), its a lot to get the timing right! A Move Manager can get all of this lined up and in the right order.

4. Packing –Where to start? Which room?

What types of boxes are best for which items? It’s overwhelming for sure, and it helps to have a third party working with you who does this for a living. In fact, as a Move Manager is an experienced packer, your belongings are likely safer during your move.

5. Unpacking – What’s even more overwhelming than figuring out where to start packing?? Where to start unpacking!

Again, it’s what a Move Manager does; ideally you can just step into your new home and turn the lights on.

6. Organization – A Move Manager gets everything put away in it’s place, from stocking pantries to shopping for organization options. Being able to walk into a home ready to live in is priceless.

From start to finish, a Senior Move Manager has you covered!

The Importance of an Eye Exam Floaters, or small specks that move across your field of vision, are a common complaint in middle aged and elderly people. These spots occur in the vitreous humor, the clear, jelly-like substance in the main chamber of your eye located between your lens and your retina. When you’re young, the vitreous is clear. As you age, the collagen fibers of the vitreous degenerate, forming clumps which cast shadows on the retina, causing the floaters you see. As the vitreous continues to degenerate, it can pull away from the back wall of the eye, creating a posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). A PVD is often associated with new floaters and flashes of light around the periphery of your vision. A PVD can sometimes cause tears in the retina which can lead to a retinal detachment, so you should have a dilated eye exam if you are experiencing these symptoms. Once your eye doctor has ruled out a retina tear, the floaters, if annoying, can be addressed.

Historically, the only remedy for floaters was a vitrectomy, or removal of the vitreous in the operating room. The FDA recently approved the Ellex Ultra Q Reflex YAG laser for noninvasive treatment of floaters in the office setting. Unlike other YAG lasers, the Ellex Laser is optimized for this procedure, which is called Vitreolysis. Nanosecond pulses of laser light are applied to vaporize the vitreous opacities. The floater’s collagen and hyaluronin molecules are converted into a gas. The end result is that the floater is removed or reduced to a size that no longer impedes vision.

80

In preparation for the painless, officebased procedure, a mild topical anesthetic drop will be placed on your eye. Then a contact lens will be placed on your eye to better focus the laser directly onto the floaters. During the treatment, you will likely observe bright lights and small dark shadows as the floaters are being vaporized into small gas bubbles. These gas bubbles quickly dissolve. Each treatment session typically takes 15-30 minutes. More than one treatment may be necessary to obtain satisfactory results. Following treatment, you may observe small black floaters in the lower part of your field of vision from the gas bubbles produced during the procedure. These dissolve quickly.

Rare side effects include cataract and an increase in intraocular pressure.

If the symptoms of floaters are bothering you and affecting your quality of vision, we recommend scheduling an appointment for an evaluation to see if Vitreolysis may help you.

Retirement Connection Guide • 1-800-462-1316

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.

Housing

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.

Wise & Well: Tips for Family Caregivers Caregivers are most effective when they are well-informed, practicing consistent selfcare and aware of their own limitations. If you are a family caregiver, here are some tips to remain happy, healthy, and wise about your role.

stressed out; watch for caregiver burnout. If you consistently exhibit these behaviors, it’s time for a break:

1. Self-Care Isn’t Selfish! Ask yourself, “what good will I be if I myself become sick?” You can’t help others if you become sick, chronically ill or overwhelmed.

Failure to exercise

Get proper rest and nutrition Set aside time each day for yourself Take a walk, relax, or read a book

2. Set Relationship Boundaries Caring for a family member makes sense for many reasons – familiarity, instincts to help/protect, and financial constraints.

However, one of the main stressors is blurred relationship lines/ boundaries. Define your roles and have a conversation with everyone involved to understand when you have to make decisions as a caregiver vs. child. Be well informed about your loved one’s current situation – understand what they can/can’t do for themselves. Don’t feel you have to do it all. It will help them maintain a sense of independence if they remain responsible for some decisions. Evaluate early on what you’re willing and able to do. Caregiving often is not a one-person job. Prioritize needs—including yours.

Then, be realistic and set expectations as to when/how you can meet the demands of those you are caring for.

96

3. Know the Signs of Burnout We all have moments of feeling overwhelmed, over-burdened, and

Lack of sleep Unhealthy eating habits Failure to properly care for yourself when sick Skipping regularly scheduled medical appointments Forgetfulness

4. You’re Not Failing by Asking for Help Recognizing the need for—then asking—for help in caregiving is one most important things you can do. Ask family or friends for help. Even if it’s temporary, it will give you the break you need to feel refreshed and balanced. Get support, encouragement and ideas from other caregivers. Look into joining a caregiver support group where you can share tips and best practices. Look into short-term options. Many senior living communities offer shortterm stays to give you a well-deserved break or vacation to recharge and take care of yourself.

Caregiving is an important role. But remember, you matter. Your needs are important too. Not only are you ensuring that you’re doing what’s in the best of interest of the person you’re caring for – you’re taking care of you! No one is expected to do it all by themselves.

Importance of Socialization for Older Adults Maintaining healthy relationships is crucial for individuals at every age, but especially for seniors. However, isolation can be an extremely common problem among seniors who are living alone rather than in a senior living community. While seniors may enjoy their independence living in their own home, they can still experience loneness.

Many seniors have spent a considerable portion of their lives in the company of others – be it in the workplace or raising children. Upon reaching retirement age, and with children leaving the house, the opportunities for socialization often decrease, especially if the senior has to rely on others for transportation. It is important for seniors to socialize and stay connected, which is why moving to a senior living community can be extremely beneficial.

The relationship between physical activity and vitality is well-documented, but multiple recent studies have also revealed an increasingly stronger link between social interaction and mental and physical well-being for seniors. Research has indicated that an active social lifestyle is more important than ever in helping seniors maintain a sharp mind, remain connected to the world around them, increase feelings of happiness, and develop a sense of belonging. Various studies have shown that socializing can produce the following positive effects:

98

Improved mental health: Symptoms of depression and memory problems affect many seniors. Approximately seven million individuals over the age of 65 experience symptoms of depression, and it is estimated that dementia touches one in seven Americans over the age of 71.

Recent studies revealed that consistent human contact and interaction can reduce depression and dementia.

Improved nutrition: The need for proper nutrition is crucial for seniors, but healthy habits can be difficult to maintain when living alone. Many elderly people suffer from malnutrition. However, studies show that seniors who have more social interactions were friendly, lively, and also had more food intake.

Strength in numbers: When it comes to socializing, the more the merrier!

Seniors in large groups are more likely to encourage healthy habits among each other, including exercise.

Many seniors have family members or other caregivers who occasionally interact with them, but that is often not adequate socialization. While it is comforting for seniors to know their needs are met, sufficient social interaction includes participation or consistently engaging with others, primarily with peers. There are a variety of options available for seniors to stay socially connected including: volunteering, joining clubs and groups, moving to retirement communities, staying connected with friends and family, getting a pet, attending a church, learning new skills, and learning to use the internet.

Seniors may resist change, and may need additional gentle encouragement to get more socially involved, but the benefits of an active social lifestyle reach well into the future.

Residential Hospice Care - An Emerging Need In the 1980’s when the Hospice Medicare Benefit was created, the plan was for free family caregivers to do the majority of the day to day care. With visits from hospice nurses, social workers, chaplains, home health aides and volunteers, hospice patients could spend their last days at home. They relied on the able bodied adult children and grandchildren to do the care 23 out of 24 hours a day, with the help of loved ones.

A dedicated hospice residence provides patients and families with a peaceful home-like environment. The new Holmes Park House in southern Oregon will offer 24/7 physical and emotional care by compassionate and knowledgeable hospice-trained certified nurse assistants and universal caregivers, managed by a registered nurse and supported by a fulltime administrator, volunteer and activities director and hospice-trained volunteers.

Currently 50% of Oregonians die on hospice but over 40% of those hospice patients do not die at home.

Patient Benefits

The problem is providing care for a loved one dying at home is difficult, and exhausting. Many don’t realize the Medicare-covered hospice nurse, social worker and chaplain visit a few times a week and delegate the majority of the caregiving to the spouse, child, parent or paid caregiver, often at great expense.

Further, for dying people without willing and capable family or friends to provide end-of-life support, dying at home on hospice care is not an option.

Residential Hospice Benefits A hospice residential care facility is the next best thing to dying at home. A residential hospice specializes in endof-life care, unlike hospitals that are focused on finding and curing disease, or nursing homes, which are designed for rehabilitation and long-term assistance, or foster homes that provide long-term residential support. The cost of a hospice RCF is often a more affordable alternative than these facilities, and is much less expensive than paying for 24/7 private duty nursing care brought into the home.

108

Patients will be safe, comfortable and cared for so their last weeks or days are peaceful and dignified. This setting and care will ensure that patients pass with dignity and respect while respecting their individuality and traditions.

Family Benefits Families and loved ones benefit from a hospice residence as well. A hospicesupported passing provides lasting benefits for the patients’ loved ones by allowing them to spend precious time together to deal with unfinished business, reflect, meet their own needs, and perhaps reconnect with the patients or others close to the patient. Because the staff provides the physical care and follows the plan of care outlined by Medicare hospice providers, loved ones are free to focus on what’s most important-precious time and expressions

“Holding Our Community”

Why a House for Hospice?

Most Oregonians want to die in their own home, but not everyone can. Nearly half of the people under hospice care in our state don’t have the support required to stay at home. They end up in a nursing home or hospital, or other institutions not primarily focused on end-of-life care.

Of the six hospice care homes in Oregon, none are located within 100 miles of Jackson or Josephine counties. Until now.

Early Warning Signs of Parkinson’s Disease Sometimes it is hard to tell that you might have Parkinson’s disease. The early symptoms are mild and could have other causes making it challenging even for experts to confirm an early diagnosis.

Some of the more common early signs of Parkinson’s disease are indicated below.

If you are noticing these warning signs and have unexplained symptoms, tell your doctor and ask for an evaluation. Many of these symptoms are normal, caused by medications or other conditions. An expert will be able to evaluate and help you determine their cause.

1. Tremor or Shaking: Tremor or shaking of limbs is a common early sign of Parkinson’s.

2. Small Handwriting: A sudden change in handwriting, such as smaller letter size, may be a sign of Parkinson’s.

3. Loss of Smell: Sense of smell can be changed by a cold, flu or stuffy nose, but ask your doctor if it persists.

4. Trouble Sleeping: Even in sleep, Parkinson’s signs can be detected with sudden movements and thrashing while deeply asleep.

5. Trouble Moving or Walking: Stiffness and rigidity that doesn’t go away when you move or walk.

6. Constipation: If you do not have enough water or fiber in your body, it can cause problems in the bathroom. Also some medications cause constipation. Speak with your doctor if you are concerned.

110

7. A Soft Voice: While not always an early symptom, a very soft or hoarse sounding voice might be caused by Parkinson’s disease.

8. Masked Face: If others comment that you have a serious, depressed or mad look on your face, even when you are not in a bad mood it could be related to PD. 9. Dizziness or Fainting: Feeling dizzy or fainting can be signs of low blood pressure and can also be linked to Parkinson’s disease.

10. Stooping Over: Many people with Parkinson’s experience stooping, leaning or slouching when standing.

No single one of these signs means that you should worry about Parkinson’s disease. If you have multiple indications or are concerned, you should make an appointment to talk to your doctor.

For more information about Parkinson’s disease and local services to help contact Parkinson’s Resources of Oregon at 800-426-6806.

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, and observe the quality.

• Observe interactions among residents and staff and ask questions.

• Ask about social, recreational, and spiritual activities.

• Ask about the type and frequency of staff trainings.

• Review state licensing reports.

116

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://apps.state.or.us/cf2/spd/ facility_complaints/ This website contains Facility Adult Protective Services (APS) investigations that constitute abuse as determined by Corrective Action Coordinators.
