Caregiving 101

It can happen overnight. Or it can creep up gradually over a long period of time. What started as a simple helping hand for your aging loved one doing shopping, laundry, and chauffeuring to doctor’s appointments has now turned into a full-time job. Suddenly, you’re a caregiver.

How do you navigate caregiving 101? We’ve got you covered.

It can be overwhelming, frustrating, and exhausting all at the same time. Whether your parent has had a major health event like a stroke or is suffering from cognitive issues like dementia, it’s important to understand the full scope of caregiving. If you’ve found yourself in this situation, here are some good caregiving 101 tips to act on if you’ve made a commitment to take care of someone else.

Caregiving 101 To-Do List

  1. Identify yourself as a caregiver.
  2. Get a good diagnosis—from a specialist or geriatrician if necessary—of your loved one’s health condition.
  3. Learn what specific skills you might need to care for someone with this diagnosis. For example, caring for someone with dementia is much different than dealing with the challenges associated with a stroke, broken hip, or other physical ailments.
  4. Talk about finances and healthcare wishes.
  5. Complete legal paperwork, e.g., Powers of Attorney, Advance Directives
  6. Bring family and friends together to discuss care.
  7. Keep them up to date on the current situation.
  8. Identify personal and community resources to provide your senior loved one and yourself the services and support you need to navigate this journey successfully.
  9. Remember, you are not alone and need to tap into others who can help share
    this responsibility with you.

For many caregivers, this isn’t their only job. Often, they have a professional daytime career as well. They might have children or grandchildren that they care for as well.

That’s why self-care is critical to mitigating fatigue, stress, depression, and the other side effects of too much caregiving. Remember, it’s one thing to gear up for a short-term health crisis with your aging loved one, but it takes another level of energy and tenacity to provide care over a longer period.

So, here are ways to be a successful caregiver by making it a top priority to care for yourself, too, along the way.

caregiving

Caring for the Caregiver 101

  • Set realistic expectations—for yourself and your loved one
  • Learn about the disease and what you can expect
  • Learn the skills you need to care for the care receiver and which ones you are or are not able to perform
  • Learn to say “no” to things you cannot do
  • Learn to accept help from others
  • Build resilience
  • Identify your button-pushers/stressors
  • Identify your coping skills
  • Remember the big three for successful coping:
    • Eat right—good nutrition as opposed to stress-snacking. Limit alcohol and other drugs
    • Exercise—it may be hard to find time but it’s the best cure for depression and increases your endorphins (“good” coping hormones)
    • Sleep—7-8 hours is hard to get but essential. Admit when you are experiencing burnout and get help

Most importantly, remember that taking care of yourself is as important as taking care of someone else.

A great place to get the support you need is by letting us help you. Senior Resource Connectors is here to provide trusted resources for all of you caregivers out there. Promise. We’ve got your back.

    Alzheimer’s Research: Past, Present and Future

    “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

    Benjamin Franklin

    It’s easier to solve a problem if you know the cause. In medicine this means understanding why people get sick and treating the disease itself, not just the symptoms. For nearly 100 years, the medical community had limited knowledge about why people develop Alzheimer’s disease. Recent scientific discoveries are uncovering clues about what causes Alzheimer’s and how to stop symptoms before they start. To understand how far we’ve come, let’s look at a brief history of Alzheimer’s research.

    Dr. Alzheimer Describes a “Peculiar Disease” called Alzheimer’s

    In 1906 a German psychiatrist named Alois Alzheimer presented the case of a “peculiar” disease at a conference. The patient, a woman in her early 50s known as “Auguste D.,” showed signs of memory loss, mood changes, paranoia and disorientation.

    After her death, Dr. Alzheimer studied sections of Auguste’s brain under a microscope and reported that her brain had shrunk in certain areas with abnormal “depositions.” For most of the twentieth century, researchers studied the clinical symptoms of Alzheimer’s and explored potential causes of the disease. As technology improved, experts began to use brain imaging, such as CT and MRI scans, to identify the microscopic plaques and tangles (what Dr. Alzheimer referred to as “depositions”) associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

    Interested in supporting this research? Learn more at TestforAlz.com.

    The Search for a Diagnosis for Alzheimer’s

    In the mid-1980s the medical community created guidelines for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease. At the time, experts believed that Alzheimer’s had only one stage, known as dementia, where patients showed clear signs of cognitive decline. Once someone showed evidence of dementia, they could receive treatments for their symptoms. The 1980s guidelines assumed that only people with identifiable
    dementia symptoms had the disease.

    Researchers later discovered that Alzheimer’s can start affecting the brain years before symptoms
    start, and that certain biological clues may indicate if someone is at risk of developing the disease.
    In 2011, experts revised the guidelines for diagnosing dementia. New research showed that Alzheimer’s could lie dormant without symptoms for years, during a “silent” period known as “Preclinical Alzheimer’s Disease.” Experts were exploring ways to detect Preclinical Alzheimer’s by looking for early disease signs in cerebrospinal fluid, blood, and other sources.

    2021 and Beyond – New Reasons to Hope


    Researchers are currently investigating new ways to detect and treat Alzheimer’s in its early stages. The FDA recently approved the first drug designed to address the causes of dementia.

    There are many more clinical trials in progress (the number of dementia studies has doubled in the past ten years) as well as increased funding for dementia research from the US government and private donors.

      A Guide to Phoenix Senior Living: Your Questions Answered

      Are you looking for information on Phoenix senior living?

      You’ve come to the right place! In this blog post, we will answer all of your questions and provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision about where to live.

      We’ll discuss topics such as cost, location, amenities, and more.

      So whether you are just starting your search or you have already narrowed it down to a few options, read on for everything you need to know about Phoenix senior living!

      What is the cost of living in a Phoenix senior living community?

      The cost of living in a Phoenix senior living community varies depending on the type of community you choose.

      Independent living communities typically have lower monthly fees than assisted living or memory care communities.

      However, the overall cost of care will be more expensive if you need to move into a higher level of care later on.

      It’s important to note that most Phoenix senior living communities offer all-inclusive pricing, which includes utilities, meals, and other amenities.

      Phoenix Senior Living

      What are some common amenities offered in Phoenix senior living Communities?

      Phoenix senior living communities offer a wide variety of amenities, including:

      • Fitness centers
      • Swimming pools
      • Movie theaters
      • On-site pharmacies
      • Bistros and cafes
      • Hair salons
      • Library services

      It’s important to note that amenities can vary from community to community, so be sure to ask about the specific amenities offered at each one.

      What is the climate like in Phoenix?

      The climate in Phoenix is hot and dry.

      The average temperature year-round is around 80 degrees Fahrenheit, but it can get as high as 115 degrees in the summer.

      However, there are also many days during the winter when temperatures reach into the 70s.

      So overall, Phoenix is a very mild climate for seniors who are used to colder winters.

      Phoenix Senior Living

      What are the best neighborhoods to live in Phoenix?

      There is no one “best” neighborhood to live in Phoenix.

      It really depends on what you are looking for in a community.

      Some of the most popular neighborhoods include Camelback East, North Central Phoenix, and Scottsdale.

      These neighborhoods offer a mix of urban and suburban living, as well as a wide variety of amenities and activities.

      For more information on the different neighborhoods in Phoenix, Senior Resource Connectors can assist with this decision.

      What should be considered when choosing a senior living facility?

      When choosing a senior living facility, there are several factors to consider:

      • Cost: the cost of each senior living facility will depend on the level of care required.
      • Location: you will want to consider location so that you can visit your loved one on a regular basis.
      • Size of community: you or your loved one may prefer a smaller or larger community depending on personal preference or individual care needs.
      • Level of care offered: the level of care will depend on the care requirements of you or your loved one.
      • Amenities offered: when looking at amenities offered, consider the level of activity and independence required.
      • Climate: depending on personal preference you or your loved one may prefer a warmer climate.
      • Neighborhoods: It may be important to stay in a neighborhood that is familiar to you or your loved one to avoid the upset of a major change in the environment. It’s comforting to reside near the usual hairdresser or a doctor that you come to know over the years.

      It’s important to weigh all of these factors and find the right community for your individual needs.

      If you need assistance with this decision, our team at Senior Resource Connectors can help! We offer free consultation services and can connect you with the best communities in Phoenix.

      How do I know if Phoenix Senior Living is right for me?

      The best way to decide if Phoenix Senior Living is right for you is to schedule a tour of a few communities.

      This will give you the opportunity to meet the staff, see the facilities, and ask questions.

      It’s also important to talk to your family and friends about their experiences with Phoenix senior living communities. Ultimately, you need to make the decision that is best for you and your loved ones.

      Home Health Versus Home Care 2021

      The Difference Between Home Health and Home Care

      Home health vs home care? Have you heard these two terms and just assumed they meant the same thing? Or have you been confused about what the difference was? Don’t worry; you are not alone. These terms are often used interchangeably, but they mean very different things in our industry.

      Home With Help® , a coalition member of ours is a home care agency. So, we get asked a lot of questions about what services they offer, because most people don’t know the difference between the two types of companies. We totally get it as our family didn’t know how they were different before we got into this line of work.

      Hopefully, this will help…

      In-Home Care Agencies

      Home care is a term people use to describe non-medical care provided by a caregiver in someone’s home. If a company says they are an in-home care (or home care) agency, then they have caregivers that will provide non-clinical services for people who need help with activities of daily living.

      Below is a list of services that Home With Help® and most other companies offer as a home care agency. We pride ourselves in being able to offer a concierge approach to in-home care. So, this is not a comprehensive list of our services, but will hopefully give you a better understanding of what home care companies offer.

      1. Personal Care Services such as bathing, toileting, dressing, grooming, hygiene assistance, and transportation.
      2. Companionship for clients can be anything from medication reminders to playing games to monitoring diet and eating. This service can be for the senior who lives alone or for the family member who lives with the sick or elderly person and cannot leave the home.
      3. Homemaking for the elderly, permanently or temporarily disabled, or senior suffering from Alzheimer’s or Dementia. These services include laundry, dishes, light housekeeping, meal prep, transportation to doctor’s visits or grocery store, and more.

      Why should you should hire a home care agency?

      Most seniors think if they hire a home care company, it takes away their independence. But, it is actually the opposite. It is a great preventative tool to allow them to stay in their homes as long as possible.

      Home care services are perfect for anyone who needs a little extra help with activities pertaining to daily living. Hiring a caregiver is a great idea for someone who has had a recent surgery or hospital stay and cannot perform all of the normal tasks at home. If you have an elderly loved one in another state, you could hire a home care agency to check on them and help around the house.

      Home Health Care

      Home health is defined as in-home medical care and/or skilled services. Companies that offer in-home health care have licensed professionals on staff to help with acute or chronic health conditions.

      This is a general list of services offered by home health care agencies…

      1. Occupational therapy
      2. Physical therapy
      3. Nursing
      4. Wound care
      5. Doctor visits

      Reasons to hire a home health care company

      If you or a loved one has recently been released from the hospital, rehab center, or skilled nursing facility and still need clinical help, you would hire a home health care company. Or, if an elderly loved one has been diagnosed with a serious medical condition, home health care may be ordered by a doctor.

      5 Ways to Boost Dementia Awareness & Cultivate Harmonious Connections

      By Laura Wayman from The Dementia Whisperer

      A diagnosis of any cause of dementia symptoms, while life-changing, marks the start of a new chapter and transition. It does not, however, indicate the beginning of an end. Individuals living with dementia symptoms continue to engage in daily life, interactions, relationships, tasks, goals and more. In life’s intricate mosaic, dementia symptoms do not diminish one’s humanity, either.


      This fresh chapter is not devoid of transformation. The nuanced interplay of physical, mental and emotional shifts reshapes how individuals navigate life, especially as the disease progresses over time. To navigate this unique chapter with resilience and embrace the evolving narrative is to be “dementia aware.” A passage of notes or musical melody can induce a range of physical and emotional reactions. Being dementia aware is like acknowledging that one can’t change the melody, but you can learn to harmonize with the tune.

      Addressing the multifaceted challenges of caring for someone with dementia involves overcoming the communication barriers that arise – to find a semblance of harmony when no one thought it was possible. Being dementia aware requires caregivers to adopt a nuanced mindset, filtering their interactions through a lens attuned to the everyday experiences of the person with memory impairment.

      Here are five harmonious approaches to dementia awareness that enable caregivers to navigate challenges and foster positive connections with their loved ones and the people in their care.


      1. The power of empathy


      Establishing trust with those in your care involves stepping into their perspective and consistently expressing understanding. When you imagine and validate their feelings—whether frustration, fear or misunderstanding—you can magnify their emotional experience. This is not always ideal though. The next time around, soften the experience by connecting with them and acknowledging their internal experiences instead. Share in how they feel on both the surface and heart-string levels to make better connections.


      2. Avoid information overload


      Excessive details overstimulate and confuse individuals with memory impairment. Simple tasks many people don’t think twice about, like body movement and balance, are more challenging. That’s why it’s important prioritize and limit the information shared to preserve cognitive bandwidth. On some days, a simple cadence is all you need.


      3. Lead with action


      Prioritize positive action statements for effective communication. Questions can create a barrier whereas these statements act as answers, encouraging immediate engagement. This straightforward approach skips the process of answering questions, replacing it with clear and positive language. For example, instead of asking for help, say, “Let’s make lunch together,” proceeding with the action, followed by some hype.


      4. Go with the flow


      And avoid asking too many questions. Even seemingly simple inquiries can trigger challenging responses from individuals with cognitive impairment. They may find it difficult to process and responds appropriately, leading to increased frustration, anger and anxiety.

      5. Help process information


      Individuals experiencing dementia symptoms may face challenges in processing information that others handle routinely. By participating in the thinking process, you can fill these cognitive gaps, providing support that eases their frustration and fear often associated with challenges in grasping and processing information. Some hand holding can make the world of difference in so many ways.


      By being Dementia Aware, we can foster cognitive, physical, spiritual and psychological well-being in a secure, supportive and loving environment.

      Questions to Consider when Choosing a Memory Care Facility

      By Laura Wayman, The Dementia Whisperer

      Choosing a care facility for an aging loved one is an emotional decision, a delicate balance between love and practicality. Beginning the search for a top-notch facility signifies a commitment to ensuring that evolving needs are met with compassion and support. You seek a place where your loved one can experience dignity, comfort and the empowering opportunity to thrive and fully embrace the richness of life.


      When navigating through different facilities, consider asking questions that delve into the level of personalized care, staff training in providing compassionate support, available amenities fosterin comfort and the programs in place to ensure residents can thrive and engage fully in their lives.


      Here are some essential questions to ask during your exploration, so you and your family can land on a place that prioritizes compassionate care, comfort and the opportunity for your loved one to thrive.


      What’s the facility’s overall approach to leadership, and how does it engage with families when considering memory care for a loved one with dementia?

      When searching for a memory care community for a loved one with dementia symptoms, it’s imperative to pose vital questions so you know the priority is optimal care.

      Gain insights into the community’s leadership, inquire about executive engagement and ask about measures for issue resolution, staff training, certifications and resident security to make an informed decision.

      Next, learn details about the community’s size and amenities. Get informed about the capacity of resident rooms, whether they are private or companion rooms, and the availability of dining rooms, as well as indoor and outdoor activity spaces. This will give you insights into the living conditions and communal facilities that your loved one will experience.


      How does the facility address medical care and staff interaction for residents with
      dementia?


      When evaluating a memory care community, inquire about the presence of 24/7 medical staff, especially registered nurses or licensed nurse practitioners.

      Explore the training protocols for staff in dementia care and their approach to managing dementia-related behaviors, such as wandering. Additionally, seek clarity on the consistency in assigning caregivers to residents, which fosters a stable and comfortable living environment.


      How are dietary and living conditions addressed within the community?


      Look into the meal setting, cleanliness level and the approach to individual nutrition needs. If companion rooms are an option, ask about the compatibility assessment process and whether a resident can remain in the same room as their condition progresses.


      What should I consider regarding regulatory compliance and financial aspects?


      When finalizing your decision, learn about regulatory compliance by asking about the community’s oversight and the state entity responsible for ensuring compliance.

      Explore financial considerations, including overall costs, potential Medicaid support and any consequences tied to financial decisions. These questions will serve as valuable guides. Opting for the right community offers relief. Once you know expert care is tailored to your loved one’s comfort and need, you can begin to refocus on relationship-building and spending valuable time once again.

      Aaron touches on how families can approach paying for home care and how families can benefit from long-term care policies or ALTCS. Aaron also shares some of his essential advocacy work and how he hopes to improve healthcare to be seen as a team sport where all roleplayers are in frequent, cohesive communication with seniors at the center.
