The grids are divided into 3 categories, depending on the type of community: Independent Living and Retirement, Assisted Living, and Skilled Nursing.

This is Your Permission slips conjure images of Permission Slip the childhood coveted “Hall Pass”, or perhaps a signature for a field trip. Permission slips of adulthood manifest as physician notes to miss work or a boss’s blessings to run with a project as we see fit or to take vacation days. Sometimes they appear as a hug that gives us permission to feel. Feel grief, feel relief, feel joy. All these examples imply a sense of freedom. Freedom to roam the halls and get that extra drink of water on the way back from the bathroom, freedom to just *be* and recover from an illness, freedom to be creative, freedom to take care of business, freedom to enjoy your afternoon as you will. Freedom to feel. Permission Slips = Freedom Permission slips as a tool? The concept of permission slips has been rebooted for me by Brenè Brown. She provides the necessary reminder that we don’t have to wait for others to hand out the permission slips we need but can write every day permission slips for ourselves. For those of us in caring professions and caring positions with individuals with symptoms of dementia

This will be the first in a blog series “Permission Slips” Today I’m going to talk about one in particular: Permission not to argue Sign this one for yourself right away. “I give myself permission not to argue (with my resident/client/

loved one with dementia) anymore.” This may be easy (or not) to write, but more difficult in practice. Arguing is likely to escalate the situation, causing everyone distress. Anytime we say “No” – we are arguing. Here are two tools to use instead of arguing: Re-frame & Reflect Re-frame: Shift from Negative to Positive Continued on page 18

Did you know the Medicaid Rules have dramatically changed? More than ever, you need to plan ahead to protect your assets from the increasing costs of long-term care.

These protections include the purchase of a Medicaid qualified immediate annuity, updating a motor vehicle, replacing worn-out personal property, and purchasing of burial plans.

The Top 7 Mistakes People Make with Medicaid Qualification

5. Applying for Medicaid too early. This can result in a longer ineligibility period in some instances.

1. Thinking it’s too late to plan. It’s almost never too late to take planning steps– even after a senior has moved to a nursing home. 2. Giving away assets too early. First, it’s your money (or your house, or both). Make sure you take care of yourself first. Don’t put your security at risk by putting it in the hands of your children without careful, intentional planning. Precipitous transfers can cause difficult tax and Medicaid problems as well. 3. I gnoring important safe harbors created by Congress. Certain transfers are allowable without jeopardizing Medicaid eligibility. These include: transfers to disabled children, and caretaker children who have lived in the home of parent(s) for at least 2 years. (Note: Both of these exceptions require strict evidence when filing a Medicaid application.) 4. F ailing to take advantage of protections for the spouse of a nursing home resident.

6. Applying for Medicaid too late. This can mean the loss of many months of eligibility.

Medicaid… Did You Know?

7. Not getting expert help. This is a complicated field that most people deal with only once in their lives. Tens of thousands of dollars are at stake. It’s usually wellworth the investment to consult with an elder law attorney who makes his or her living guiding clients through the process.

Power Of Attorney Documents: Why Adults make decisions every day Are They Important in life. You make financial choices regarding banking, paying bills and managing assets. You decide with whom to socialize and also where to live. You make health care decisions such as consenting to or refusing treatment, obtaining medical records and choose a course of treatment when ill.

But what happens if you are too sick or disabled to manage these decisions? Before it is too late, have you prepared for someone to act on your behalf in the event of a crisis or if you are unable to manage decisions on your own? Adding a person to your bank accounts is not the answer because, among other reasons, it is dangerous and places your accounts at risk. Thankfully, there is a key legal tool for substitute decision making called a Durable Power of Attorney. A Durable Power of Attorney means one person (the “principal”) gives legal authority to another (the “agent” or “attorney-in-fact”) to act on behalf of the principal. “Durable” means the agent can act when the principal loses capacity. A General Durable Power of Attorney permits your agent to manage any part or all of your financial affairs and property. A Health Care Durable Power of Attorney enables your agent to make any or all health care decisions if you become incapacitated. A Living Will allows you to spell out your desired medical treatment regarding life-saving procedures, artificial nutrition and

28 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2016

artificial hydration if you become unable to speak for yourself and have a terminal illness, or are in a persistent vegetative state. Choosing the right person as an agent is a very important decision and should be given careful consideration. It should be someone who is trustworthy, honest, knows how to handle money and accepts the responsibility as an agent. This agent owes a duty to the principal called a “fiduciary” duty, which means the agent has to act in the principal’s best interest, in good faith and with care, and keep good records. Abuse by an agent or a breach of fiduciary duty can be punishable civilly and criminally. A principal has the control to revoke a Power of Attorney at any time. If you become incapacitated and have not executed Power of Attorney documents, court proceedings called Guardianship and Conservatorship may be needed for someone to obtain decision making authority, which is both time consuming and costly. However, this may be avoided by planning in advance the execution of Durable Power of Attorney documents, which give you greater control and freedom of choice in an affordable manner.

Walking for Your Health Brisk walking is great exercise, and like other endurance exercises, it can increase your heart rate and breathing. Endurance exercises keep you healthy, improve your fitness, and help you do the tasks you need to do every day. For some, walking for the recommended 30 minutes a day might be difficult. If so, try walking for 10 minutes at a time and build up to three times a day. As your endurance improves, walk longer until you can advance to a single 30-minute walk. As your walk becomes easier, add new challenges, such as climbing a hill, extending the time you walk, increasing your walking pace, or adding an additional day of walking. Step counters can help you keep track of your walking, set goals, and measure your progress. Most inactive people get fewer than 5,000 steps a day, and some

very inactive people get only 2,000 steps a day. Try wearing a step counter for a few days to see how you’re doing. If you get: n F ewer than 5,000 steps a day, gradually add 3,000 to 4,000 more steps a day. n A bout 8,000 steps a day, you’re probably meeting the recommended activity target. n 1 0,000 or more steps a day, you can be confident that you’re getting an adequate amount of endurance activity. n 10,000 steps a day comfortably, try for 15,000 steps a day, which would put you in the high activity group.

a difference between being connected to one another and being connected to the internet.

The more we use tools and technology to keep us efficient, the less we make personal connections and the more isolated our seniors may become. However, using tools and technology in conjunction with personal interaction is a great way to help keep your loved one safe, healthy and engaged. The first step is to have a clear understanding of where your loved one is cognitively. For issues like medication management, there are smart apps and automatically dispensing pill cases. These are great if your Mom is still able to understand and take her own pills. But, if she is just removing them from the machine to “shut it up”, then the technology is not helping. People with dementia may take on the immediate issue of stopping the alarm and forget the actual purpose is to take their medication. You may need to couple that smart machine with a personal visit, reminder phone call or a written note with specific instructions to actually take the pills. Online grocery shopping and delivery can help keep nutrition on track. And, having someone there to help

unpack the groceries and prepare a few healthy meals is an even better way to ensure that they are eating well. Facetime and Skype are wonderful ways to connect and using memory games from advanced to basic matching is a great way to keep them engaged. But, you need to make sure that they are comfortable using the technology or that you have someone there that can help them to make the call or play the game. If you already are in the midst of caregiving, you can use tools like motion sensor lighting to help illuminate a walking path for seniors who get up at night. Better lighting helps to create a safer environment. You can also use motion sensor remote alarms that will alert a caregiver in another room that the senior has gotten up. It allows you to do more around the house and even get some rest, but remain close by when needed. Using the right tools at the right time with the right balance of personal interaction brings our seniors independence without abandonment.

History is not just what we read in books. It is in our lives. Have you ever stopped to consider who might be interested in the stories we have to tell? Perhaps our children or family, but increasingly historians are seeking to preserve accounts of times gone by. Consider trying the following exercise. Take a large piece of paper and draw a line from left to right. Write the year of your birth at the left end of the line and add a mark on the line for every ten years of your life and label it with the year. Continue the line beyond your current age. This is your life line. Above the line, jot down your earliest memories—the first birthday you remember, the first day of school, your childhood home, your first kiss, etc. Keep going with other significant memories in your life—your first job, a long trip you took, your wedding day, the birth of children, death of a friend. Try to put the events in the decade of your life in which they occurred. Next, below the line note significant events that were going on in the world and put them roughly where they fall in the chronology you have laid out. You might include wars, economic fluctuations, social

movements, technological changes, population shifts, popular trends, or influential leaders. Fill in the portion of the line to the right of your current age with what you believe life holds for you in those coming decades. Include your hopes and dreams, your wishes and desires, perhaps some regrets, and how you want to be remembered. Now, sit with someone and “talk the walk.” Take them through your

life line from left to right, talking about what was going on in your life and in the world during each decade. If possible, have someone videotape the discussion as you go through your life. You can make it as detailed or summarized as you like, but be sure to tell some of the stories that fill up your page. And don’t forget to comment on your future… Editor’s Note: This article was written by Zane Robertson, President of Active Minds®, For more information, visit www.activeminds.com.

Long Term Care Long Term Care Insurance (LTCI) Insurance 101 can be very daunting and intimidating for just about anyone outside of an insurance agent or financial planner.

There are so many nuances and requirements that it’s very important to read your policy in full and follow the exact procedures the policy outlines in order to qualify for coverage. Every policy is different and ultimately it is up to you, the policyholder to submit the correct information. This article is intended as a very basic guide to LTCI, it is not legal or financial advice. What is an Elimination Period? The best way to describe an elimination period is simple. It’s the basically the same thing as a deductible or cash out of pocket the policy holder must pay before the benefits begin to be paid. Typically the elimination period is 0-100 days. But there are several important questions to ask. How does the policy qualify these days? Do they require service days? Calendar days? What counts as “one service day”? These are very important questions to ask when you call to review your policy. Knowing what to ask may save you money and headache. Where does my LTCI cover services? Skilled Nursing? Assisted Living? n In your home? n n

56 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2016

How do I qualify for my LTCI? When is the best time to use it? Should I wait or should I proceed with a claim? What is the maximum daily limit? What is the maximum lifetime benefit? How do I get reimbursed? To whom does the claim get paid? All of these are very important questions. To be eligible for any type of benefit under most policies, your Physician may be required to show that you meet one of the three following benefit qualifiers: Medical Necessity: (Acute or chronic illness) n Loss of Functional Capacity: (Assistance with ADL’s: Activities of Daily Living) n Cognitive Impairment: Dementia or other cognitive impairment requiring daily monitoring. n

All too often we attempt to understand and activate our LTCI due to family crisis. When it comes to LTCI it can save both time and money if you understand your policy ahead time. Even if you don’t currently need care we recommend contacting either your insurance agent or a home care company for a free assessment. This will help you understand your coverage and plan for future needs.

Preparing Your House for Sale If you are considering selling your When Downsizing house and downsizing, there are some items that you must know to ensure a more stress and hassle free sale.

In this article we will cover the initial preparation that you will want to consider. The first thing that should be done is to take a good look at your house. Not as the homeowner, but as the potential buyer that you want to attract. If you have lived in your house for more than 5 to 10 years and haven’t made updates, others will most likely see some dated aspects to your house. Most buyers have no imagination. If they walk into a house and don’t like it, they will go on to the next house. Most buyers just do not have the vision to see what can be done to update a house. Most buyers want to buy a house, move in, unpack, and live in the house. Period. A couple of basic items that can be done is to de-clutter and de-personalize your house. Getting rid of “stuff” that clutters the house will make the rooms seem larger. And it will make the eventual move easier when the time comes.

64 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2016

Basic updating. This would include items such as interior and exterior painting. New paint and floor coverings have the potential to give your house a much needed updated look. The key is to be neutral enough to attract the biggest potential buyer audience, but not too neutral to not be attractive. Although the most expensive rooms to update, the kitchen and bathrooms are the most important. Do the other homes for sale in your neighborhood have granite counters, updated cabinets, etc.? Does your home look New, or does it look dated compared to your competition? If a house is priced to reflect a “nice” updated house, it better be NICE. Otherwise the price of the house needs to reflect its current condition to give potential buyers a reason to be interested in it. For additional information, go to www.DownsizeMyHouseBook.com. Editor’s Note: This article was submitted by Ben Souchek, the foremost authority on the realities of what to expect when selling a house with The Sierra Group. See ad page 65.

5 Tips to Protect Yourself during Open Enrollment for both Medicare Parts C & D (Oct. 15 – Dec. 7), and the health insurance Marketplaces (Nov. 1 – Jan. 31).

overlook it. Other flyers, letters, or postcards claiming to be from “Medicare” that don’t have these seals/logos should be set aside. Do not respond to them unless you can verify that they are legitimate. When in doubt, call them out. When someone calls you and asks for personal health or financial information, do not feel obligated to respond. Ask them for their name, number, address, and the name of their agency/company. Tell them that you first need to verify who they are representing. Someone who is legitimately trying to assist you will provide you with the information and understand your need to be a safe consumer. Report it. For every one person who reports a fraudulent scam, there are likely 10 other people who experienced the same thing but either were afraid to speak up or didn’t know who to call. Beyond telling a friend or a family member about your experience, report when you believe that you have been the victim of a scam to an official including the police and the Federal Trade Commission, so appropriate action can be taken and to help prevent others from becoming victims. You can file a complaint online, using FTC’s

Trust your instincts. If it feels off, then it probably is a scam. When someone calls you on the phone claiming to be a government employee and needing to know your personal information, such as asking for you to verify your Social Security number or requesting credit card information – STOP! No federal worker will call you asking for this information. Do not give out this information, especially over the phone. Keep Medicare cards private and in a safe place. Treat your Medicare card the way you would your Social Security card—in a safe place, and only on your person when you absolutely need it. For example, if you’re going to see a doctor or a pharmacy for the first time, bring your card to verify your coverage. Other than that, it should be kept in a safe place, not in your wallet. Discern legitimate mail from scam mail. Mailings and letters from government agencies, such as Medicare and Social Security, will have an official government seal and/ or logo on it. Keep this mail, don’t

Honor Flight KC - Donate, Help Us to Serve Our Veterans Sponsor, Volunteer Who Have Served Our Nation Honor Flights take heroes to see, first hand, the memorials that were built in their honor. These free flights leave for Washington DC and return to Kansas City, MO the

same day. Each veteran is assigned a companion to assist them on the tour. This tour is their “last hurrah” - the last time they will be recognized as the conquering victors that collectively and literally saved the world. To this day most of Europe is free, most of the Pacific is free and America is free. This freedom came at a very high cost. We can never repay them for what they’ve done. An “Honor Flight Tour” is simply a small token of our appreciation for everything they’ve done. Throughout their Honor Flight KC tour, the Veterans are thanked, recognized and 90 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2016

admired for their service. They come home personally knowing how much their country loves them and respects them. Veterans will never forget this gratitude and adoration. Please help us rewrite this final chapter of their lives. Our American Veterans deserve nothing less. Your donation will help transport veterans to

Washington, D.C. to visit THEIR memorials. Tours are simply not possible without public support. Call 913-683-1369 or go to www.honorflightkc.org to learn how to apply for a future flight. Call or visit the website to donate, sponsor or volunteer to Honor Flight KC.

in maintaining the individual’s symptom management. Care is provided at the individual’s residence, this can their private home, a retirement community, an assisted living, or a skilled nursing facility. RE-Respite Care – Provided when the family needs time to rest or go out of town for a short time. Ideally, this service is provided for five consecutive days. Care may be provided in a long-term care facility depending on the condition of the individual. Hospice is responsible for financial arrangements with the Long-term care facility, at no cost to the patient or the family. GIP – General In-Patient Care – Provided in a skilled nursing facility when the symptoms cannot be managed elsewhere. The skilled nursing facility must have 24-hour R.N. coverage as deemed by Medicare guidelines. General in-patient care is usually short in duration. This level of care is usually due to symptoms which are out of control and more intensive nursing services are required. If an individual is at a care facility, room and board are covered by hospice during this period.

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

24/7 ADMISSIONS – Can a patient be admitted to the particular hospice agency 24/7? If a patient qualifies for hospice care, they should be admitted as early as the family requests. Many agencies admit patients to hospice, 24/7, evenings weekends, and holidays. GRIEF SUPPORT GROUPS – Grief is the normal and universal reaction humans have to the loss of those they love. When your loved one passes, you may go through a period of bereavement and experience grief. Each Hospice Agency will have a grief and bereavement support program. Many provide Grief Groups that meet and address issues of Grief in a supportive group setting. INDIGENT PATIENTS – Does the hospice accept non funded or indigent patients? This is usually on a case by case basis and at the

determination of the hospice company. Many have a non-profit organization that can help support the care of non-covered patients. Many Hospice agencies utilize Social Workers to help find resources for indigent families.

HOSPICE CARE

CC-Continuous Care – Provided to prevent the individual from going to the hospital when a crisis occurs. Continuous care also is given when more helps is needed to assist the individual and family in coping with the crisis. This level of care is usually provided at the individual’s residence no matter where that may be The criteria for continuous care may include: Severe pain or symptoms which are out of control Psychotic episodes Breakdown of caregiver Imminent death and family unable to cope. Continuous care is typically reserved for end of life or other crises that requires a constant presence by a nurse or care team.

LICENSED MASSAGE THERAPY – Massage has become one of the fastest growing trends in therapy for hospice patients. Used as a method for relaxation to alleviate stress, anxiety and pain with a light hands-on approach, as well as providing an alternative to those who can’t take medication or prefer not to, massage therapy has become essential in hospice care. This is not reimbursed by Medicare; it is an added benefit that select hospice companies have decided to provide for their patients. MUSIC THERAPY – Music Therapy is an established healthcare profession that uses music to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals” A music therapist is not just a music performer, but actually trained in counseling and music. A music therapist creates goals and objectives for their patients and uses music activities and music experiences (listening, composition, improvisation, or playing/singing a familiar song) in order to achieve those goals. This is not reimbursed by Medicare; it is an added benefit that select hospice companies have decided to provide this to their patients.

All hospice organizations require a medical director, a physician to oversee their care. Many times the hospice medical director will work in conjunction with the patient’s own physician.

DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING & URBAN DEVELOPMENT (HUD) – helps apartment owners offer reduced rents to low-income tenants. HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER PROGRAM – (Sec 8) - find your own place and use the voucher to pay for all or part of the rent. Participating households are required to pay the greater of 10% of their gross annual income or 30% of their adjusted income towards rent. To qualify, a household’s annual income must not exceed the applicable income limit for the area as adjusted by family size. (Sec 236) Property owners in this program make mortgage payments that are based on a 1% mortgage interest rate. HUD then provides a subsidy to their lender to cover the difference between 1% and the market interest rate on the property’s loan. Participating households are required to pay rent equal to the greater of 30% of their adjusted income (not to exceed the market rent) or the basic rent amount set by HUD for that particular property. Any amount paid by the household that is more than basic rent is considered excess rent, which the owner pays back to HUD in repayment of the subsidy. INDEPENDENT HOUSING – Apartments and communities for adults 55+ with little or no senior support services (e.g. no meals, etc...)

SENIOR HOUSING DEFINITIONS

What Is Assisted Living? There are many misconceptions about Assisted Living Residences and Communities, despite the growing need for such senior housing options. There are currently nearly a million people living in Assisted Living Residences nationwide in more than 38,000 homes and communities. With these statistics, it is not hard to imagine how daunting the task can be to find the right home. An Assisted Living Residence provides housing, personalized support services and help with activities of daily living, but not skilled nursing care that can only be provided in a Nursing Home. Assisted Living can bridge the gap between living at home independently and living in a nursing home. Fast Facts from the National Center for Assisted Living: The average age for Assisted Living residents is 85 years old n Three-fourths of Assisted Living residents are female with 24% of residents being males n Average cost for Assisted Living is $2,627 n

There are many reasons that seniors move into Assisted Living Residents, but the most common reasons are for medication management, assistance with bathing and dressing, 146 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2016

and the need for supervision. Assisted Living Residences are licensed by the state and have between 4 and 200 residents. They are usually private pay on a month to month basis, but some homes do have a “buy-in” feature. Most homes also have a daily rate for Respite or temporary stays. Assisted Living can be in a home-like setting, apartment style, shared or private rooms, and may have other options such as independent living, skilled nursing, and memory care at the same location. The following factors could indicate a need for Assisted Living. N eeding regular supervision for safety or has fallen more than three times in the past year n R equiring assistance to move about or would need assistance to evacuate self in an emergency n N eeding assistance with meals either in setting up, food preparation, or in cleaning up n N eeding frequent reminders for activities of daily living and/or forgetfulness or confusion n N eeding assistance or reminders for medication management n R equiring assistance with shopping, housework, and/or laundry. n

me and I need to be transferred to a Skilled Nursing Facility.”

Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF’s) are specialized health care centers that provide a wide array of therapeutic services to continue to make you well so that you can return to home as soon as possible. In today’s world, hospitals are places where only the most acute and unstable patients are cared for until they are ready and safe enough to be transferred to a SNF. The fact that you are now well enough to be able to transfer to a SNF is great news. It means that you have made significant strides in your return to independence and a stay in a SNF will get you even closer. Skilled Nursing Facilities are staffed with caring and competent therapists, nurses and doctors that can make sure that the treatment plan that has been determined by your hospital doctors and nurses will be carried out. Whether you’re recovering from a surgery or a medical problem the caring staff at a highly ranked SNF will make sure that you get the best treatment and return to

your prior level of function as soon as possible. “What does highly ranked mean?” Skilled Nursing Facilities are ranked by Medicare every year. You can find these rankings at www.Medicare. com/nursinghomecompare. This is a good place to start your search for a quality facility. After you’ve reviewed the website and discussed your options and recommendations received from your Nurse Case Manager or Social Worker, the next step is to ask a trusted friend or family member to go and tour a few facilities for you. Find out how often a doctor is in the facility. Is the facility clean and well maintained? Observe the staff to make sure they are happy and approachable. Once you’ve done these things you’ll be in a much better position to make an informed choice regarding your next level of your care. I sincerely wish you the best on your road to recovery.

4 Signs Your Loved One Needs No one knows your loved one Memory Care like you do. You made a promise to them that you will always be there to take care of their needs.

When a loved one is experiencing Alzheimer’s or dementia, however, keeping that promise will involve making changes. You will reach a point where the most loving and caring thing you can do is to find an environment where he or she can get access to the very best professional care. How will you know if and when that time has come? A large part of your role as caregiver is recognizing the warning signs that your loved one has passed a point where they need more help than you are able to provide. Here are four key behavior changes to watch for:

Isolation (lack of motivation)

166 KANSAS CITY METRO AREA – SUMMER–WINTER 2016

2 3 4

Depression (loss of social activity/ interaction) Forgetfulness (such as leaving a stove burner on)

Increased agitation, anger and aggression

Experiencing any of the above firsthand is frightening. And, it’s normal to hesitate to take action, because you want so much to keep them at home. However, caring at home for a severely memory-impaired individual, even with help, is mentally and physically exhausting. And, they are more vulnerable to experiencing a serious fall or other life threatening event. Then you may be forced into making a snap decision. The best time to prepare for this Continued on page 179

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

to carry out everyday activities, but what about brain health?

Some studies suggest that exercise also may play a role in reducing risk for Alzheimer’s disease and age-related cognitive decline, and research in this area is continuing. Animal studies found that exercise increases both the number of small blood vessels that supply blood to the brain and the number of connections between nerve cells. In addition, exercise raises the level of a protein in an area of the brain important to memory and learning. Research in humans shows that exercise can stimulate the brain’s ability to maintain old network connections and make new ones vital to healthy cognition. For example, in a year-long study, older people exercised daily, walking for 40 minutes or doing stretching and toning exercises. At the end of the study, the walking group showed improved connectivity in the part of the brain engaged in daydreaming,

envisioning the future, and recalling the past, as well as improved ability to plan and organize tasks such as cooking a meal. We don’t know yet what prevents Alzheimer’s or age-related cognitive decline, but we do know that a healthy lifestyle that includes a healthy diet, physical activity, appropriate weight, and not smoking can maintain and improve overall health and well-being. Making healthy choices can lower the risk of certain chronic diseases, like heart disease and diabetes. Scientists are very interested in the possibility that a healthy lifestyle also might have a beneficial effect on Alzheimer’s. In the meantime, people of all ages can benefit from taking positive steps to get and stay healthy.

have undergone a tracheotomy. A tracheotomy is a surgical procedure in which a cut or opening is made in the windpipe (trachea). The surgeon inserts a tube into the opening to bypass an obstruction, allow air to get to the lungs, or remove secretions. VENTILATOR - Moves breatheable air into and out of the lungs, to provide the mechanism of breathing for a patient who is physically unable to breathe, or is breathing insufficiently. WANDERGUARD - Offered at some facilities. A resident with memory loss or confusion wears a small discrete pendant. Each external door in the care home is fitted with a radio detector which detects when a pendant moves near an exit. The WanderGuard will sound an audible alarm, alerting the staff of a patient wandering.
