SENIOR HOUSING

First you should familiarize yourself with the many options available and determine which one is best for your needs. You will find definitions of each type of housing at the beginning of the housing section. Then turn to our easy to read comparison grids.

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

The buildings are listed by city or county so you can zero in on the specific areas you are looking for.

RESOURCES FOR AGING WELL

symptoms of the disease are often mistaken as typical signs of aging.

However, geriatric depression is not typical, though it is treatable if diagnosed early and managed properly.

Nearly 90 percent of elderly adults struggling with depression do not receive adequate treatment. Left untreated, geriatric depression can worsen existing medical conditions and lead to higher rates of death and suicide.

To help you recognize the signs and symptoms of geriatric depression, Oceans Healthcare experts address some of the most common questions about the disease.

Q: What is “elderly or geriatric depression”?

A: Elderly or geriatric depression is depression affecting older adults.

Though temporary sadness or feeling blue can be normal at any age, prolonged depression among this age group may be indicative of more serious issues.

Q: How is geriatric depression different from other kinds of depression?

A:Unlike depression in younger adults, which is often related to genetics or social behaviors, geriatric depression may be a result of physical or environmental factors like chronic illness or isolation.

Q: What causes geriatric depression?

A:While there is no singular cause

of depression at any age, depression in older adults is often brought on by chronic diseases and the medications used to treat them. Loneliness and isolation, loss of a spouse or friends, feeling purposeless or undergoing significant life change can bring on geriatric depression.

Q: What are some of the most common signs of geriatric depression?

A:Understanding when certain behaviors indicate depression and recognizing the signs and symptoms early can help patients receive treatment sooner and promote healing. Some of the most common physical and behavioral signs of geriatric depression include: n Persistent sadness, anxiousness or despair n Unexplained aches or pains that do not improve with medication n Sudden loss of weight or appetite n Lack of motivation or energy n Difficulty falling asleep or staying awake n Thoughts of suicide or previous attempts at suicide n Memory problems, forgetfulness or difficulty making decisions

Q: Can some types of medications make symptoms worse?

A: Depression symptoms can occur as a side effect of medications routinely used to treat medical conditions common in older adults.

Doctors can often prescribe lower doses or alternate medications, which Continued page 45 Indicates website link on seniorsbluebook.com

REHABILITATION HOSPITALS 82

Know the Difference in Inpatient You never know when you may be Rehabilitation for faced with the challenging task of Better Recovery being a caregiver for someone you love.

Stroke, brain injury, hip fracture, Parkinson’s disease and many other conditions may require the need for inpatient rehabilitation. Knowing the difference between an inpatient rehabilitation hospital and a skilled nursing facility–or nursing home–can help you as a caregiver to make an informed decision in choosing the best rehabilitation program for your loved one. Making the right choice gives your loved one a greater chance of reclaiming independence for a higher quality of life and a return into the community.

When comparing rehabilitation choices, it’s important to ask questions and compare notes from place to place. Questions like, how often is the patient seen by a physician? Do the nurses specialize in rehabilitative care? How advanced are the technologies that will be used? How much therapy will my loved one receive? Are rehabilitation teams experienced and experts in their field? By gaining this knowledge, you gain a clearer view of the benefits one place offers over another, boosting patient recovery to optimum levels.

When you conduct your own research, you will know the difference before you choose a rehabilitation provider. Pay close attention to the following areas, key differences in many locations for treatment.

SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI – 2019 SUMMER–WINTER

Advanced technologies: New technologies and treatments consistently offer patients greater options for successful rehabilitation and recovery.

Yet, some skilled living facilities do not offer these advancements, limiting progress and a successful return to independence.

Frequent physician* visits: Patients are evaluated by a rehabilitation physician at least three times a week at a rehabilitation hospital, leading team meetings to discuss a patient’s progress in reaching goals of independence.

24/7 rehabilitation RNs: Patients have around-the-clock care from registered nurses that specialize in rehabilitative care.

Three hours of therapy a day, five days a week: A rehabilitation hospital requires that patients receive at least three hours of therapy five days a week. Patients have their personalized therapies spread out throughout the day to improve appropriate skills including walking, swallowing, eating, cooking, grooming and dressing.

A higher level of care in rehabilitation can make a proven difference for patient outcomes. ~ *The hospital provides access to independent physicians.
