living with dementia. Our mission is to provide older adults who need supervision and daily care with opportunities to stay mentally and physically healthy and avoid being placed in a nursing home.

Last year we were approved as a provider through the Department of Veteran Affairs Community Care Network. This means veterans enrolled in the VA healthcare system are now eligible for adult day care services at Via at no cost to them through their VA benefits.

Adult day programs promote improved health by offering older adults a place to go each day to receive care, nutritious meals, mental and physical stimulation, and companionship. Benefits to seniors in adult daycare include: elps preserve independence.

H Provides an opportunity to socialize, resulting in increased alertness and activity. n Activities provide more structure, giving older adults something to anticipate and look forward to. n Physical exercise reduces symptoms of anxiety, improves stamina, health and balance and improves sleep. n n

Caring for loved ones with dementia – while managing work and family obligations – is challenging.

GrandFriends provides respite, allowing caregivers to continue life knowing their loved one is in a safe and caring environment. The program provides health and socialization benefits to clients living with dementia, including group fitness activities, games and activities that stimulate mental health, and socialization with peers.

YOU OWE US MONEY! How to navigate You missed jury duty. A sheriff is on the many scams out the way to take you to jail. You owe in the multiverse taxes. You missed court. Your grandson is in jail. You have a package!

Someone is trying to break into your bank account. We need to verify your credit card transaction.

Every single day, we get notices designed to part us from our money.

These kind of scams are so common but they are getting ever inventive. How can we tell if its legitimate?

FIRST, most legitimate inquiries, including very serious ones, will never be done by text, call or email. If the sheriff has a reason to visit you, he will not announce it ahead of time! If you missed jury duty, you have to see the court personnel, not someone saying you have to pay money online or by phone.

SECOND, if you receive an alert, NEVER follow the instructions, instead, contact the source directly.

If the bank alerts you to potential fraud, go to the bank or call the bank’s number that you look up, not one provided to you.

THIRD, if you receive a notice in the mail instructing that you owe money, call the source. You can call the IRS, the revenue department, the police department or any other legitimate source directly from a

number you find, not one that is provided by a criminal. That way, you are getting legitimate information.

FOURTH, you can sign up for alerts on your credit or for a credit freeze. Go to http://www.annualcreditreport.com, which you should visit annually to get a free credit report and review. You can request a freeze on your credit. You can also take extra precautions from your bank to prevent getting defrauded. Its slightly inconvenient, but easier to lift your freeze when you buy something large than to navigate through the quagmire of identify theft.

If you are having financial problems, deal with your problems head on and directly with local professionals and not with online companies or others that may not be legitimate.

Do not respond to unsolicited offers of help.

If you suspect you have been scammed, report it to the police immediately and change all your passwords and personal information online immediately. Notify your bank if you believe your personal information has been compromised. ~ Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Kyla G. Kelim, Esq., Aging in Alabama. See ad on page 24.

ASHLEY DAY LAW, LLC

Why Hire an Elder Law Attorney?

Elder law attorneys specialize in estate planning, incapacity planning, and end-of-life care for seniors, helping them remain in their homes and protect against abuse. They are essential in planning for the future and addressing the needs of a vulnerable population.

How Can an Elder Law Attorney Help?

Long-Term Care Planning: As the number of Americans over 65 is projected to exceed 80 million by 2040, planning for long-term care is increasingly important. Elder law attorneys assist seniors in creating financial plans to cover essential needs like food, rent, and medical care. They also guide clients in applying for public benefits such as Medicaid and Medicare.

Housing: Many seniors wish to age in place. Attorneys can represent clients in landlord-tenant disputes, helping them navigate issues like city ordinance violations. They also protect seniors against housing discrimination under the Fair Housing Act. Estate Planning Document Preparation: Elder law attorneys draft critical documents such as wills, health care directives, and powers of attorney, ensuring that seniors’ rights are protected regarding retirement benefits and medical decisions. A solid estate plan reduces family stress and potential inheritance disputes.

26 ALABAMA GULF COAST – FALL 2024 – WINTER 2025

Incapacity Planning: Attorneys can help document care wishes for seniors facing disabilities or conditions like dementia. With the rising number of Alzheimer’s cases, having a plan for incapacity is vital for protecting financial and physical well-being.

Guardianship: In cases where an older adult can’t make decisions due to conditions like dementia, attorneys assist family members in securing guardianship, which involves legal proceedings and court hearings. They can also advocate for the senior’s autonomy by exploring alternatives to full guardianship.

Combating Elder Abuse: Elder abuse is a significant public health issue, affecting one in six adults aged 60 and older. Elder law attorneys are well-versed in the rights of seniors and can provide legal recourse against abusers while implementing safeguards like advance directives to protect against financial exploitation.

By addressing these diverse needs, elder law attorneys play a critical role in supporting the aging population and ensuring their rights and well-being are protected. ~ Editor’s Note: This article is for informational purposes only and is not intended to be legal advice.

But this choice can truly transform your day-to-day life, offering you a chance to connect with others, stay active, and find joy in a supportive community. Let’s explore some of the wonderful benefits that senior centers provide and how they can positively impact your life.

1

Make New Friends and Stay Social As we age, we may find ourselves spending more time alone, especially after retiring, losing a loved one, or facing limited mobility. Senior centers create a warm, friendly environment where you can meet new people, have great conversations, and build meaningful friendships. Being around others helps lift your spirits and reduces feelings of loneliness.

Laughing, sharing stories, and simply being part of a group can make a world of difference in how you feel.

Health and Wellness Support Staying healthy and active is important at any age, and senior centers make it easier. They offer exercise classes like yoga, tai chi, and water aerobics that are designed for all fitness levels.

Whether it’s through educational workshops, technology classes, or discussions about history and current events, you’ll have the chance to keep learning. Staying mentally engaged can reduce the risk of cognitive decline and keep you feeling sharp and proud of your accomplishments.

Feel a Sense of Belonging Being part of a community is incredibly rewarding. At a senior center, you’ll find a group of people who understand and support you. Through group activities and events, you’ll build lasting friendships and create a social circle that can be there for you during life’s ups and downs. Feeling like you belong is a great boost for your self-esteem and emotional well-being.

7

Volunteer and Give Back If you enjoy helping others, senior centers offer volunteering opportunities where you can give back to your community. Whether it’s mentoring younger people or participating in local projects, volunteering gives you a

sense of purpose and fulfillment. It’s a wonderful way to stay connected, stay active, and make a positive impact on the world around you.

The Opioid Crisis and The devastating impact of the opioid Grandfamilies epidemic on families has increased the number of Grandfamilies (families where grandparents serve as parents), and created additional financial, mental and physical burdens for senior heads of household.

Children of substance abusing parents quite often end up being raised by grandparents, other relatives or in foster care. But, placing children in foster care situations is not typically the best option. Children raised in foster care have 50% chance of not graduating high school.

They also are significantly more likely to become homeless, incarcerated, unemployed or addicted to substances themselves.

The best option is keeping children in kinship families. For every one Alabama child in foster care because of addictive parents, there are 85 being raised by relatives. Grandparents, or other relatives, can provide a safe, nurturing, and structured home for these children.

However, Grandfamilies are often not given access to the same sup-

60 ALABAMA GULF COAST – FALL 2024 – WINTER 2025

ports and services that traditional unrelated foster families receive. The sudden responsibility can result in legal issues, food insecurity, crowded living spaces, and the caregiver’s loss of freedom. Often, grandparents are on a fixed income and cannot meet their financial needs. They also have limited access to some medical care for things like dental work not paid for by Medicaid.

Future Support for Grandfamilies Escambia, Monroe and Madison counties are launching a pilot program serving south and northwest Alabama the Fall of 2024.

Funding for the pilot program will be provided by opioid settlement funds granted to the Alabama Department of Mental Health. The Area Agencies on Aging serve seniors, caregivers and kinship caregivers and will be a partner in these efforts.

For information on available services in Escambia, Baldwin and Mobile counties, contact the Aging and Disability Resource Center at 251-706-4680. ~

Why Move to a Senior Living Community Deciding to move into a senior living in Alabama Before community is a significant mileYou Need it? stone, often accompanied by a mix of emotions and questions. However, choosing to make this transition before it becomes a necessity can greatly enhance a person’s lifestyle.

At Community Senior Life, with senior living communities throughout Alabama, we want you to discover the many benefits of moving into a senior living community sooner rather than later, so we’re sharing some of these advantages to help guide you in your decision.

The Advantages of Moving Early The notion of relocating to a senior living community in Alabama is frequently associated with a response to declining health or mobility. Yet, taking proactive steps to move before reaching that point can be incredibly empowering. By making this decision earlier, older adults can enjoy an active, social lifestyle that fosters personal growth and well-being, providing a wealth of opportunities to enrich one’s life and maintain independence.

Selecting the Ideal Community Moving early allows individuals the luxury of time to explore various communities and choose one that best fits their preferences and needs. This careful selection process ensures a comfortable and enriching setting tailored to individual tastes.

Additionally, it gives seniors and their

64 ALABAMA GULF COAST – FALL 2024 – WINTER 2025

families a sense of peacefulness that comes with knowing they have made a thoughtful and informed choice without the pressure of an urgent situation.

Time to Acclimate to Community Living Starting life in a new community sooner enables individuals to acclimate to the environment on their own terms. Instead of the stress of finding the right care and tending to urgent health needs, individuals who make the move early can enjoy personalizing their new space and settling into the community.

Proactive Health Management Engaging with the community’s health and wellness programs early means individuals can address their health proactively, promoting longterm well-being. Access to regular health screenings, fitness classes, and nutritious meal options can help maintain physical health and prevent future issues. Additionally, participating in various recreational activities supports mental and emotional health, contributing to a holistic approach to aging well.

Peace of Mind for Families Making an earlier transition to senior living in Alabama can also provide peace of mind for families or close relatives. Family members

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

Enhanced Social Connections Regular social interaction has been shown to reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation, prevalent concerns among older adults, and to reduce the risk of cognitive decline.

Transitioning into a senior living community in Alabama before it’s needed provides individuals ample time to develop strong social bonds with fellow residents and team members.

These relationships foster a sense of belonging and community, which can significantly improve residents’ emotional well-being.

Access to Enriching Programs Senior living communities typically offer a variety of enriching classes, programs, and events designed to engage and entertain residents. From arts and crafts sessions to book clubs and movie nights, there are numerous opportunities for individuals to pursue hobbies and discover new interests. The transition period can be a time of exploration, allowing individuals to discover the amenities and services available to them.

Financial Planning and Stability Moving into a senior living community early can also provide financial benefits. Many communities offer different pricing options and payment plans, allowing older adults to manage their finances more effectively. Early transition can sometimes secure better rates or incentives that may not be available later. Additionally, planning finances ahead can provide a sense of tranquility among the family members, ensuring that all caregiving costs are covered and that the older adult can enjoy a graceful retirement.

UNDERSTANDING SENIOR LIVING OPTIONS ASSISTED LIVING COMMUNITIES

Understanding Senior Living Options

Choosing the right care option for seniors can be overwhelming. This guide breaks down the differences between different Senior Living Options, helping you make informed decisions for your cllients, patients or loved ones.

For more information please visit seniorsbluebook.com.

INDEPENDENT LIVING

What is it:

Apartment-style communities designed for active seniors. Amenities could include housekeeping, transportation, social activities, and meals. No medical care or daily assistance provided by community.

Who is it for:

Best for seniors who are self-sufficient and seek a lifestyle with fewer responsibilities and more social opportunities.

ASSISTED LIVING

What is it:

Apartment-style living with personal care services, such as help with dressing, bathing, and medication. Residence includes meals, housekeeping, transportation, social activities, and staff available 24/7. Facility may include a Memory Care Unit for patients with Alzheimer’s, dementia, or other memory-related conditions.

Who is it for:

Ideal for seniors who need regular assistance, but do not require round-the-clock medical care.

SKILLED NURSING

What is it:

24/7 medical care in a licensed facility with healthcare professionals. Facilities offer rehabilitation, post-surgery recovery, and long-term care for chronic conditions. Private and Semi-private rooms available.

Who is it for:

Appropriate for seniors with serious health conditions that require constant medical supervision and care.

Are You Needing Physical Rehabilitation Services?

Crowne Health Care has facilities across Alabama.

Whether you’re recovering from surgery, an injury or a stroke, Crowne Health Care can help restore function and confidence to your daily routine.

Our highly skilled and dedicated team of therapists will also work with you to regain your independence and peace of mind. Your recovery is our top priority, and we’re with you every step of the way.

For over twenty years, Restore Therapy has partnered with our skilled nursing staff to provide rehabilitative services to our residents. Whether you need rehabilitation to “bridge the gap” between a hospital stay and returning home or need comprehensive therapy as a long-term resident, our professional rehabilitation department is here to strengthen and increase your mobility. Sometimes, a patient is too ill for home care but no longer needs to remain in the hospital or in a surgical bed. When that is the case, physicians order shortterm rehabilitation or transitional care in a skilled nursing facility.

Your rehabilitation team, guided by your physician, will decide which of the following therapies would be beneficial to you:

Physical Therapy Physical therapy is a branch of rehabilitative medicine that uses specially designed techniques and equipment to help patients recover or improve their physical abilities, including loss of movement, strength, balance, motion, and more. Physical therapy also helps speed up recovery and prevents impairments in patients. At Crowne Health Care, our therapists use state-of-the-art wound-care protocols and pressure-relief techniques

Occupational Therapy Occupational therapy is another branch of rehabilitative medicine that helps people of all ages with physical, sensory, or cognitive issues relearn how to perform daily activities. Through the use of assessment, exercises, and intervention, our occupational therapists help our patients develop or recover meaningful activities for everyday living, such as grooming, bathing, dressing, and more. Occupational therapy helps many of our patients restore their independence.

Speech Therapy Speech therapy at Crowne Health Care is a sector of our rehabilitation services that focuses on improving the patient’s ability to communicate after speech impairments caused by an injury or illness, like a stroke or a brain injury. Speech therapy techniques are performed by speechlanguage pathologists (SLPs) and include articulation therapy, language intervention activities, and other methods.

If you qualify for short-term therapy, Medicare may cover 100 percent of your first 20 days in our skilled nursing facility. We also accept private pay residents, some HMOs, most private insurance policies, and supplemental
