SENIOR HOUSING

Does your loved one constantly forget items that you know you’ve discussed with them, or is it possible that they didn’t actually hear the message correctly?

New research shows that hearing loss may be mistaken for signs of Alzheimer’s disease or Dementia and it may actually contribute to cognitive problems!

Untreated hearing loss can significantly increase the risk of developing memory problems. CNN reports that “the risk of Dementia RISES as hearing ability DECLINES!” AARP quotes a study from Johns Hopkins that finds that “Men and Women with

Hearing Loss are much more likely to develop Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease!” They further state that “Even mild Hearing Loss DOUBLED the Dementia risk,” and people with severe hearing loss were five times more likely to develop dementia.

If you are over the age of fifty and have not had a Baseline Hearing Test, you should begin monitoring your hearing acuity annually. Hearing tests are provided as a FREE public service

by Hoglund Family Hearing and Audiology Centers, at our Fort Myers, Bonita Springs and Estero Clinics, and a FREE Memory Test can be arranged by experts in Cognitive Research!

Ask Dr. Ann What is the most significant change you’ve seen in your industry over the past year?

With advancements in technology, audiology and hearing aids can now be offered as a fully mobile service.

From the initial consultation, testing, diagnose to treatment, Doctors Hearing can fully take care of a patient in the comfort of their own home.

What about further in the future?

Treatment for tinnitus (ringing in the ears) has significantly advanced over the last 10 years. Previously, patients were told, “I am sorry, but there is nothing we can do for you. You will just have to learn to live with the ringing.” Current tinnitus treatments are highly effective in reducing ringing in the ears. However, I am excited to see what the next 10 years hold for advancements in tinnitus treatment.

What are three key challenges your industry is facing?

The three key problems facing Audiology, in SWFL, can be summed up in one phrase, “Sales, sales, sales!”

Unfortunately, just about on every corner and even in big box stores, hearing aids have sadly turned into a retail industry.

Since when do people shop for medical treatment in retail?

And most patients

48 COLLIER & LEE COUNTIES – SPRING/SUMMER 2018

are not informed that there is a difference. In fact, in Collier County I could count on one hand the number of Doctors of Audiology. Yet to most outside of the field, it looks like there are dozens of medical professionals. In reality, there are dozens of sales people. My advice to patients searching for proper medical care is to look at the credentials and work with a Doctor of Audiology. Just like a dentist is the doctor to see when one has problems with teeth, a Doctor of Audiology is the professional to see when one has problems with hearing loss, tinnitus or balance.

What is your “superpower?” What strength or talent that has contributed most to your success?

I worked in private practices in Naples for 7 years before opening my own practice. I would hear the same complaints from patients over and over, “I cannot drive…I do not have transportation until next week… The office is so far away” In SWFL there is a demand for aging in place. Many older adults want to keep their independence for as long as possible. In opening my practice, I knew that I wanted to meet this previously unserved need.

Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Doctors Hearing, Dr. Ann Rasmussen.

I called the office on a Saturday and she came to my home on Sunday! She tested me and then fit me all in the same day. They have been great!

I met Dr. Rasmussen at a workshop and was immediately impressed by the sincere and professional way she and Brian discussed the needs of each attendee. I purchased two hearing aids and Dr. Rasmussen has been prompt to answer any questions I had. I especially like the concierge service in my home. I will definitely recommend her to anyone needing hearing aids. J&K

Why Do I Need a Primary Care Physician?

Many people believe they only need a doctor when they are sick. However, having a primary care physician may be your key to staying healthy.

An important responsibility of a primary care physician is providing preventative care. Think of your primary care physician as your wellness coach, who will protect your health through regular checkups, and will make sure you get the screenings you need to identify any concerns as early as possible.

There are many reasons you should have a primary care physician. They include: 1. Continuity of Care/Holistic Care – A primary care physician can treat the whole person, which takes into account your history, family history, and any existing conditions you may have.

2. Care Coordinator/Central Point of Contact – A primary care physician will insure that your care and health information is coordinated between your other physicians and specialists. This will insure that you are not having any duplication of care, and also communicate important health information to your care team.

3. Valuable and trusted resource – Whenever you have a health question or concern, your primary care physician should be your first call. He or she may need to refer you to other specialists, or help you find other resources to help with your care, but again, serving

as your care coordinator, your primary care physician is the best person to initiate your care.

4. Routine screenings – Whether it is taking your blood pressure, ordering regular, routine lab tests, or making sure you are getting regular mammograms, colonoscopies, or other important screenings, your primary care physician should be recommending all necessary routine screenings to you. Follow up when your doctor orders tests and screenings. This will enable your primary care physician to catch any serious health issues early, when they are most treatable.

5. Keeping you out of the Emergency Room – Many people who do not have a primary care physician use the emergency room when they get sick. Your primary care physician can offer options that can help prevent your potentially unnecessary trips to the ER. This may include same-day and walk-in appointments, which may eliminate the need for an unnecessary, and more costly ER visit. While the emergency room cannot replace a good relationship with a primary care physician, when emergency care is needed, your primary care physician will certainly refer you for that higher level of care.

Editor’s Note: Please call 239-348-4221 or visit PhysiciansRegionalMedicalGroup.com to schedule an appointment with a primary care physician.

Tyson Eye - Modern Technology With Old Fashioned Concern Are activities you once enjoyed becoming less frequent? Have routine tasks become more challenging, such as night time driving?

Are once vibrant colors and visual contrast now dull and muted? If you can relate to any of these questions, cataracts may be affecting your personal safety and quality of life.

Recent studies have shown people who undergo cataract surgery have a lower risk of health conditions, as well as a longer life, compared to people living with cataracts.

Cataracts are formed by the clouding of the lens within the eye. Many factors contribute to the gradual development of cataracts with age but some of the most well known influences are exposure

Coleman, MD, PhD and colleagues.

Results were published by JAMA Ophthalmology and reported by the New York Times, in December of 2017. This study found having cataract surgery resulted in a 60 percent reduction in risks of death from accidents and cancer, also neurological, cardiovascular, pulmonary and infectious diseases.

The lifestyle improvements in surgical participants from those living with cataracts were dramatic.

Exercise levels increased and locating and taking medications became easier. Due to improved visual clarity, the risks of falling and driving accidents were also reduced.

Cataract surgery is one of most common surgical procedures in the United States. The Prevent

And, I can see better now than I have ever seen in my life!

Thank you Dr. Tyson!” ~ Carol B. to ultraviolet light from the sun, smoking, obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, prolonged use of corticosteroids and family history. In people over the age of 40, cataracts are the most common form of vision loss.

A 20 year study with over 74,000 women with cataracts aged 65 and older, was conducted by Dr. Anne L. 118 COLLIER & LEE COUNTIES – SPRING/SUMMER 2018

Blindness America organization reports more than 3 million Americans have cataract surgery each year. Over 95 percent of cataract surgery instances are complication free, making cataract surgery one of the safest surgical procedures. Many artificial lens options are available which are intended to benefit certain lifestyles.

Technology advancements such as the LENSAR laser system, reduces the stress to the eye during cataract extraction, improves outcomes and shortens recovery time. In many cases, procedures correcting astigmatism and treating glaucoma can be performed simultaneously.

Farrell C. Tyson, MD, FACS has a background in biomedical engineering and is an award winning ophthalmic surgeon that allows him to work closely with FDA research and development of new technology, in the field of Ophthalmology. This experience gives Dr. Tyson first hand

knowledge of what techniques, medications and specialized treatments are needed.

The goal to provide our patients with the best visual outcomes possible, has led to two surgical centers which utilize the LENSAR laser system. Our Tyson Eye of Cape Coral Eye Center and Naples Premier Surgery Center are convenient locations for surgical treatments of cataracts, glaucoma and other visual impairments.

SERVING OUR COMMUNITY SINCE 2006

SeniorsBlueBook.com

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.

The peace and mind, trust and security of having a Licensed Home Health Agency like Comfort Keepers caring for you or your loved one is invaluable. We provide on-going training, and monitor and supervise the care.

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 distinctive approach to in-home care, Interactive Caregiving™,

which heightens 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 also 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. If and when private nursing care is desired, our sister company, Quality Medical Services, is under the same roof and ready to serve.

HEALTH AT HOME - HOMEMAKER & COMPANION

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

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.

PARADISE YOU CAN CALL HOME!

“Aston Gardens is a paradise,” Werba said. “Never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d be living in such a luxurious place. Every day is a new adventure. I tell my friends back in Pennsylvania, it’s like being on a cruise ship. In fact, one of my buddies called me up and told me, ‘I know you’re doing well, but stop telling me about it because it’s depressing me!’”

Werba had foot surgery recently and found the team members at Aston Gardens At Pelican Marsh not only knew about it, but they went out of their way to accommodate any extra needs he had during the recovery process. “I’m very thankful. This is the place for seniors for spending their retirement years,” he says. “I got my statement in the mail this morning and let me tell you, it’s worth every penny!”

ASTON GARDENS AT PELICAN MARSH

Born in rural Pennsylvania, Robert Werba has long been a traveling man. With 30 years in the Navy, 20 of those on active duty, he and his family bounced around from Pennsylvania to Maryland to Washington State to California to Florida. When he and his wife finally settled down back in Pennsylvania following his retirement from the service, he took a job in the education field that saw him commuting 58 miles one way every single day. Who would have thought it would take him until past his 83rd birthday to finally find a place where he didn’t want or need to keep leaving?

184 COLLIER & LEE COUNTIES – SPRING/SUMMER 2018

The Carlisle, a luxury, resort-style senior living community in North Naples, offers both Independent and Assisted Living.

Available on a monthly fee basis, the ECC-licensed and CARFaccredited community boasts a full range of services and amenities including 12-hour restaurant dining, housekeeping, transportation and activities. The Carlisle is located on AirportPulling Road, between Pine Ridge and Immokalee Roads.

“Art has opened up a new life not only to paint but to see.”

Loraine Marden doesn’t consider herself an artist though her beautiful paintings on display during the active retirement community’s annual Resident Art Show and Art Wall say otherwise.

Thankfully for Mrs. Marden’s Carlisle neighbors, they don’t have to wait for the art show to marvel at her work. On the first of each month she hangs a new painting on her front door and another piece in the personal nook, right outside her residence.

“I’m a Sunday painter,” she said. “I discovered a love of art in grade school but didn’t pursue it again until I started taking art courses in my 40’s.”

She recently discovered a new art technique when she picked up a box of crayons and read they could be used on sandpaper. She was immediately hooked and began experimenting, adding pastels to the sandpaper to create stunning masterpieces.

THE CARLISLE

Resident Spotlight

“Art has opened up a new life not only to paint but to see,” said the 90 year old who has called The Carlisle home for the past 10 years. “I like to have a personal connection to the work I create. For example, I’ve painted a picture of a cat I previously owned and recreated a picture of my grandson on a hobby horse.”

She credits The Carlisle’s maintenance-free lifestyle with affording her the newfound time to dedicate to her art.

Mr s. Mard e n is also an avid reader and counts The Carlisle’s well-stocked onsite library among her favorite community amenities.

“The library is great,” she said.

“There’s no need to check out books.

I can take my time and return them when I’m ready.”

With her philosophy that, “Tomorrow is always better”, she’s looking forward to creating more lovely art and connecting with friends.

ARDEN COURTS MEMORY CARE COMMUNITY

A Daughters Touching Story of Top Notch Care program, Dad had grown very comfortable with the staff and surroundings at Arden Courts and looked forward to participating in the many activities they have to offer. This made for a smooth transition when Dad became a full-time resident in November of 2015.

LET’S CONNECT!

THE RIGHT DECISION! DISCOVERY VILLAGE

When it came to moving to the retirement community known as Discovery Village At Naples, Ann Banach barely batted an eye or flinched a muscle. After all, moving to a new home is no big deal to someone who’s done it 16 times already. She has been around the country and back again, thanks in large part to her late husband.

“I was born and had lived in the New York/New Jersey area until the war ended,” Banach says. “He was a bit older than I was; he was 26 and I was 19, but he was very handsome and had a new car; what else could a 19-year old girl want in a husband?” Her husband went to work everywhere, and took Ann and the kids with him. Working as a servicer for Curtiss-Wright, the largest aircraft manufacturer in the world, the Banachs’ found their way from coast to coast, following her husband’s career.

When retirement time came for real, Banach headed back to Florida and found an ideal spot just 13 miles north of her former home at Marco Island. “This is the loveliest place,” Banach declares. “There’s so much banter going on between the residents; there’s a real happiness here, and the people WITH TOUR who work here want to make you feel happy CALL TODAY! and feel good about yourself.”

SPRINGWOOD COURT

Bloom Where You Are Planted – at Springwood Court Dorothy Randall’s upbeat attitude and humor is well known and admired among residents of Springwood Court, Five-Star Senior Living Community in Fort Myers.

“I believe you bloom where you’re planted,” says Dorothy. “After I lost my husband, two sisters and a brother, I was depressed and needed to keep my mind busy and stay active. So, I went to clown school with two friends.”

The clowning threesome performed skits in assisted living communities and nursing homes.

Cheering up others helped Dorothy feel uplifted, too.

“I like people,” she says, “Sometimes I wear my clown outfit to the dining room here just to get a laugh.

We had fun doing our skits for people in the nursing homes. Sometimes we went by the names ‘Wrinkles and Crinkles.’ The ballerina skit to the song ‘Send in the Clowns’ is popular. And I took tap dancing so I could be a Seven Springs Rockette.”

A compassionate person, Dorothy reaches out to someone who looks a little sad or lonely and asks that person to babysit one of her singing teddy bears. Each teddy bear is elegantly dressed and blessed with the ability to deliver a song with the voice of a great singer, like

210 COLLIER & LEE COUNTIES – SPRING/SUMMER 2018

Bing Crosby or Doris Day. “Everybody loves those bears,” says Dorothy.

Executive Director Frances Gray adds, “Dorothy is a lot of fun. She is so positive.”

Dorothy was born and raised in West Virginia and joined the Air Force where she worked as a recruiter. She and her husband both went to Ohio University on the GI Bill and raised their family in Ohio. They retired in Fort Myers and one daughter lives nearby, “right across the fence,” Dorothy says. The other daughter and two sons live up north; they call and visit as often as possible. In addition to having her daughter nearby, Dorothy enjoys living near shopping and entertainment venues.

“Springwood Court is a pleasant environment,” says Dorothy. “The food is very good, I like playing BINGO and Rummikubs — which is good for your mind.”

Popular group activities include Zumba, Chair Yoga, Wii bowling and shuffleboard. Baseball games, shopping, and concerts are favorite outings.
