4 MANATEE, SARASOTA & CHARLOTTE COUNTIES – SUMMER/FALL 2018

Welcome to the Summer 2018 edition of Seniors Blue Book. We have separated and color-coded the community resources section by county to make it easier to find all types of senior resources as well as health at home and senior living options.

Knowledge is power. For a quick tutorial please see “How to Use This Guide” on pages 10-11. Our right to choose is the cornerstone of what we believe and is exactly why Seniors Blue Book, an ‘Authoritative Media” was created 37 years ago!

In addition to the printed guide we hope that you will visit our new LOCAL homepage at www.. seniorsbluebook.com/local/sarasotabradenton-charlotte-counties. com where you will find detailed information specific to the category you are searching.

Samantha Hersch Publisher (center)

Subscribe to our senior newsletter by e-mailing ALittrell@ SeniorsBlueBook.com for a calendar of events and many other activities happening in our area. We value your feedback so tell us what you think of the program!

Seniors Blue Book can be found in 1,700 locations including (but certainly not limited to) all CVS Pharmacies and Millennium Physicians Group offices. We would love to hear your feedback.

Are you frustrated with: 1. A traditional cane that is hard to see with in the dark and too bulky to carry around?

2. Attempts to open jars and have excruciating pain?

3. Unable to reach for items in cupboards or bend over to pick something up?

Kitchen Krush developed revolutionary products to serve.

“Finally I’m able to open jars much easier. Send me your cards so I can

start telling people about you!”

“The reacher closes easily. I now have one in every room, in my car, and in my garage. I wouldn’t give mine up for the world.”

“Such a great cane, extremely solid and stable footing, makes you feel confident even on wet surfaces.

Nicely adjustable up to 39 inches for tall people like me. The light is great also.”

For your convenience, you can order online at www.kitchenkrush.com or with our simple cut and mail order option. Do not miss out and select your favorite product(s) to have today!

Not as many people are aware, but every one of us is impacted by Alzheimer’s disease.

Maybe the disease affects somebody we know - we’re all just a few degrees of separation away from someone suffering from the disease.

We are all indirectly paying the bill as Alzheimer’s will cost our government $277 billion by the end of 2018, and that does not reflect informal care. Nationally, 5.5 million Americans have Alzheimer’s, every 66 seconds someone is diagnosed and 1 in 6 women age 65 and over develops Alzheimer’s. Over 450,000 Floridians have Alzheimer’s with approximately 40,000 of Southwest

Floridians, and 1 in 8 persons over the age of 65 have Alzheimer’s.

Researchers are working around the clock to expand on our knowledge. Many exciting studies are evaluating both diagnostic tools and treatments. Locally, the Neuropsychiatric Research Center of Southwest Florida (NPRC) is conducting eight studies all dedicated to Alzheimer’s disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). We are learning every day. The more we learn, the closer we get to new treatments.

That is reason to hope.

Editor’s Note: Article submitted by Angel C. Duncan, Neuropsychiatric Research Center of Southwest Florida. For more information call the NPRC at 239- 939-7777.

Break Down the Most Important Aspects of Estate Planning There are many important considerations while doing your estate planning.

Sometimes, it is difficult to understand the terms and language that are brought up during this time.

Here is a breakdown of some of the most important aspects: PROBATE DEFINED Probate is defined as the court process during which a deceased person’s assets are transferred to their beneficiaries. During that time, there is a creditors’ claim period where we publish the proceedings in the newspaper and any legitimate creditors can make a claim on the estate within a specific timeframe.

POWER OF ATTORNEY DEFINED A Power of Attorney is a legal document delegating authority from one person to another. In the document, the principal of the Power of Attorney grants the right to act on the principal’s behalf as their agent. A typical Power of Attorney document gives the agent the right to make health care and financial decisions for the principal.

LIVING WILLS DEFINED The Living Will is a legal document which allows a person to place into writing their specific end of life desires with regard to their health care. The purpose of this document

is to provide the principal the opportunity to direct a person to speak on their behalf for the withholding of, or withdrawal, of any life prolonging procedures in the event one should have a terminal condition that is unrecoverable.

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT A properly executed will allows you to specify exactly how you would like your estate handled upon your death, including how and to whom property should be divided and who should manage the administration of your estate. Certain specific formalities are required for execution of a valid will. When there is a will with no revocable living trust, there will be probate of a person’s individual assets.

REVOCABLE LIVING TRUST In Florida, you can make a living trust to avoid probate. A trust document is similar to a will in that it names someone to take over as trustee after your death or disability.

You must transfer ownership of your property to yourself as the trustee of the trust. Once all that’s done, the property will be controlled by the terms of the trust during your lifetime and the successor trustee will be able to assist with financial affairs. At your death, your successor trustee will be able to transfer it to the trust beneficiaries without probate court proceedings.

Making the decision to move, whether downsizing to a smaller home or moving to one of the many beautiful retirement communities in the area, the process can be both exciting and stressful at the same time.

With so many things to consider….“What will I do with all of my stuff”, “What is my home worth in today’s market”, “Who will help me” the next logical question becomes “Where will I begin”?

Scott and Kelli Nold’s personal experiences with transitioning their own parents from hundreds of miles away left much to be desired and they immediately recognized the need for a very well thought out and efficiently organized transition plan in our local market. They needed a local Realtor, mover, clean-out and hauling services, liquidation services, landscapers, a handyman… and the list went on. The countless tasks involved were time-consuming and stressful.

There was not a single person/organization in the area that could provide intelligent answers. There are many challenges, emotions, and legal issues that can accompany transitioning and moving, and the unfamiliarity with the process only compounded the stress.

Based upon this experience, the Nold’s immediately forged a complete service plan to provide their transitioning clients with advice and resources tailored to fit each of their personal objectives, as opposed to simply one-sizefits-all suggestions that some others offer. Getting the best advice possible at the start makes all the difference. All clients will have access to market research and experience-based analysis and are provided with several possible outcomes and opportunities for diversification by representatives who are willing to put their years of experience to work for you to help you to make prudent financial decisions.

From “Clean-out to Close”, The Nold Group’s well-established, full service Real Estate sales team is designed to address any challenges and keep you fully informed throughout all aspects of the transaction. Rest assured you will receive straightforward and timely answers throughout the process from people who have walked in your shoes and will advocate for your needs.

Exclusive & Personalized Home Care 941.621.3420

Like everyone we know, my family and I set launch for sunny paradise 15 years ago.

We were amazed by the beauty and warm tropical climate. We quickly loved the people and soon opened the first, nurse owned and operated nurse registry, Coastal Care Nursing. Our mission was exceeding the expectations of everyone we encountered; caregivers, nursing professionals, and clients alike. This concept is loved even to this moment. Today, we are recruiting and referring the best nursing professionals to win the hearts of their clients.

Today, there is A Better Way! Year after year, clients wanted more and requested upscale services. So, we answered the call with the first exclusive VIP concierge care service in the area. Each client has a dedicated concierge team to ensure the best care experience. Concierge Attendants are carefully selected for you, and may be exclusively placed on your service.

From simply looking for a friendly companion to needing a little more assistance.

Some families may only want a temporary service transitioning from hospital to home.

Some families may want to direct in every aspect of care. Some families may want simple non-care concierge services from sunrise to sunset. The options are endless with your dedicated concierge team at your fingertips!

It’s time to put your toes in the water. Let us assist you to find your perfect plan from this moment moving forward. As always, it is our great pleasure to anticipate your needs before you can think of them!

Serenity at Home Companion Care has a number of years’ experience in the field of affordable healthcare.

What sets us apart is our commitment to introducing clients and caregivers before we finalize one’s care plan. We have found that competitors send a hired companion to one’s home without prior knowledge of their comfortability with each other.

At Serenity we have found that this process limits families’ options when making this critical decision – that they may feel stuck with whatever caregiver is available on that particular day/time.

At Serenity we empower our clients to choose their caregiver after an

extensive interview process. By doing this we are often referred to as the Matchmakers of the Companion Care Industry. This unique concept allows us to experience less turn over with our caregivers creating better customer satisfaction. If/when we experience a caregiver needing to be moved or a client requesting a new caregiver, the process starts over and we assist our customers in seeking a new match.

At Serenity we are committed to focusing on the 4C’s: Custom Care (No Minimum Hours), Consistent Care (Same Caregivers), Compassionate Care (Care on your terms), and finally Care (Only the Care you require).

Companion Care Rates Starting as low as $15/hr.

HEALTH AT HOME - PRIVATE DUTY

SeniorsBlueBook.com

Home care provides seniors with the choice to age at home and promotes peace of mind and wellness for family caregivers. For seniors with challenging physical and cognitive impairments who require help with activities of daily living, home care is the solution. But home care also benefits those who are still in good health.

Can You Benefit from Home Care Services?

First In Care private-pay home care is an innovative solution that helps seniors maintain healthy and active lifestyles. Our caregivers receive professional training, enabling them to

assist in daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation, transportation, running errands, and light housework.

More importantly, First In Care caregivers provide companionship and mental stimulation by engaging clients in conversation and other activities. They communicate with clients’ families and healthcare professionals to ensure continuing safety by alerting them to potential signs of declining health or other risk factors.

HEALTH AT HOME - PRIVATE DUTY

What is Homecare? Keeping Seniors Safe, Healthy, Engaged, and Active

HEALTH AT HOME - PRIVATE DUTY

The Comfort Keepers Difference The importance of hiring a reputable home care agency There are several options when it comes to hiring in-home care, but selecting the right company can sometimes be a challenge.

At Comfort Keepers, we pride ourselves on hiring the most qualified employees to deliver exceptional care. Our caregivers, who we call Comfort Keepers, are hand selected after a rigorous interview process.

Each individual must go through several rounds of interviews, personality test, national background checks, drug screening and complete our skills training with our RN at our training center. Being an employee, not an independent contractor, means that both employees and clients are protected. We are bonded and insured, and employees are covered by workers compensation. As an in-home care agency, we provide training and monitor and supervise the care, whereas when working with an independent contractor, the client must direct care themselves and the liability may be shifted to the client. The peace of mind, trust and security of having a Licensed Home Health Agency like Comfort Keepers caring for you or your loved one is invaluable.

Exceptional Care and Desirable Outcomes Our mission at Comfort Keepers is to provide our clients with the highest level of quality of life that is

achievable. We provide our services within the framework of our distinctive approach to in-home care, Interactive Caregiving™, which heightens our clients’ enjoyment of life physically, mentally, and emotionally. Our ability to deliver high quality home care results in desirable outcomes.

The son of a long time client recently shared: “Our family is so thankful for the level of personal attention that Comfort Keepers has brought to our Mother; from the prompt attention the office always gives to service requests, to the extraordinary dedication her primary caregiver has to our Mother’s quality of life. Comfort Keepers has given our Family the peace of mind knowing that my mother can continue to experience independent living and avoid moving to an assisted living situation.”

Michael D. For the past decade, we have proudly served hundreds of seniors and their families in southwest Florida and enjoy the privilege of helping our veterans as a preferred provider for the VA. Comfort Keepers provides in-home care assistance, such as cooking nutritious meals, light housekeeping, transportation, running errands, medication reminders, and assistance with bathing and activities of daily living.

Editor’s Note: For more information about Comfort Keepers or to schedule an in-home consultation, please call (941) 235-9111.

SENIOR HOUSING DEFINITIONS

SENIOR HOUSING DEFINITIONS ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING (ADLs): Define the personal care services available in assisted living and include bathing, dressing, grooming, bathroom assistance, eating and ambulation. Medication Administration and transferring are not ADLs but are factors in determining a person’s level of functioning.

ADULT DAY STAY PROGRAMS: There are two general types of adult day care programs. One is based on a medical model and the other on a social model. The medical model provides comprehensive medical, therapeutic, and rehabilitation day treatment. The social model offers supervised activities, peer support, companionship, and recreation. Both models assist older adults and those with chronic conditions to remain as independent as possible, for as long as possible.

ASSISTED LIVING: Florida providers must be licensed with a Standard Assisted Living Facility License. Two additional licenses: the Limited Nursing Service (LNS) and the Extended Congregate Care (ECC) allow providers to deliver some skilled nursing services and more personal care. Communities are typically apartment-style with kitchenettes and private baths. Some offer companion accommodations.

Amenities vary. Services include

meal plans, cable television, local phone, housekeeping, laundry, maintenance and transportation.

Also provided is personal assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs).

Payor sources usually accepted are private pay, and some insurance.

CCRC/LIFECARE: Continuing Care Retirement Community otherwise known as Life Care, offers a campusstyle environment that may include villas, apartments or condos, assisted living and skilled nursing services. A large endowment fee is usually required that entitles residents to use assisted or skilled services when needed throughout their lifetime. Residents “purchase” their villa or condo and then pay monthly maintenance fees. Payor sources accepted are private pay in villas/apartments/condos and some insurance plans in AL. See SNF for payor sources.

EXTENDED CONGREGATE CARE (ECC) – An ALF with this license can provide extended congregate care services. An ALF with ECC beds may keep residents who become frailer than would normally be permitted in order for the resident to age in place.

For example the facility can provide total help with bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting, and can provide or arrange for rehabilitative services, along with other services.

However, this does not include 24hour nursing services.

ASTON GARDENS

Dick Schindler lived and worked around the world before settling in at Aston Gardens. He was born in Buffalo, New York, but never stayed put in one place for too long, moving on to Chicago, New York City, Phoenix, Jamaica, Florida and then six years in Siberia. Yes, Siberia.

What took him on such a strange, winding trip? Food, and his passion for connecting people with quality, lowpriced offerings through the building of supermarkets.

He spent a considerable chunk of time as president of Gristedes Supermarkets in New York City.

“I was approached by a couple of business people asking if I could go to Russia and improve the food Dick Schindle system,” Schindler says. “There was a joint venture put r forward by the Russian and US governments. I stayed in Russia from 1989 to 1996.”

In other words, Schindler was in the country for some of its most defining moments of the last century - the introduction of perestroika and glasnost by Mikhail Gorbachev, followed by the dissolution of the USSR. After six years in Russia, Schindler returned to Clearwater, while his older brother moved to Sun City Center, living in a private home. The two talked frequently, and when Schindler’s wife passed away, his brother suggested it was time for another move.

“In October of 2016, an apartment in Aston Gardens became available and I took the furniture I wanted, and told the Salvation Army to come pick up everything else.”

Schindler admits the transition was difficult at first, but the ability to connect with others has been one of his favorite things about his new home.

“I’ve been fortunate in that I’ve run into a number of people here who have interesting backgrounds and have been all around the world,” he says. “I met a lady who spent the last 20 years living on a boat; another resident is an ex-college professor, and a lady my age was a pilot for 20 years and flew in the Powder Puff Derby (a transcontinental race for female pilots) during the 1950s. We get together for breakfast and dinner and never run out of things to talk about.”

Not only is Schindler surrounded by friends at Aston Gardens, but by his family as well.

His older brother has lived in Sun City Center for years, and his sister and her husband moved to Aston Gardens in January of 2017. His younger brother is currently on the waiting list for the community.

“To have three of my siblings all in one place after all this time is truly remarkable,” Schindler says. “I never would have dreamed it would be this good at this age.”
