Seniors Regaining Independence Where They Need It Most

by Jeff Dailey
written by Jeff Dailey

On average, people use the toilet at least 6 times a day. It is one of the most basic activities in life and is also one of the most common reasons for seniors to start losing their independence. As we age, cognitive and balance issues can make going to the bathroom difficult and in some cases, even dangerous. Seniors all over the world are now turning to the bidet for help. Seniors Regaining Independence Where They Need It Most

What is a bidet?

Bidets have long been known as a hands-free way to wash sensitive areas with a stream of water. When using a bidet, there is no need to bend or twist your body to wipe. The bidet’s cleansing stream of water will do all the cleanup with little to no need to dry yourself.

Improves cleanliness

Seniors often experience a lack of proper cleanliness due to an inability to wipe after using the toilet. Bidets offer a cleansing spray of water for cleanup, only needing a small pat to dry off. Some bidets will even include dryers that can eliminate the need for drying yourself altogether.

Brings independence in the bathroom

We spend most of our lives experiencing a bathroom trip alone. When we age, a solo bathroom trip can become challenging and, in some situations, dangerous. Bidets eliminate the need to wipe which can result in a senior being able to take bathroom trips alone once again. For many seniors, this is a huge help towards keeping their independence.

Easy to install

Bidet installation has become increasingly easy over the years and has resulted in customers not needing to call a plumber or electrician for help. The installation process can be done by hand and be completed in under an hour to modify your ordinary toilet with comforting bidet features.

Improves the quality of life

Take back your independence and clean in comfort with the new standard in bathroom hygiene. Bidets can provide the ability to enter the bathroom alone with safety and confidence. For many seniors, a bidet improves their quality of life with just one use.

10 Steps to Help Older Adults Prevent Slips, Trips and Falls

Home Automation for Fall Prevention Awareness Day

Ready, Steady, Balance: Home Automation for Fall Prevention Awareness Day

September 22 marks the first day of fall, and many people are no doubt looking forward to the cooler weather, the changing leaves and the holiday season just around the corner. But it’s also a day to recognize another, far more serious kind of fall. Home Automation for Fall Prevention Awareness Day
The eleventh annual Fall Prevention Awareness Day is an effort to address the serious issue of fall-related injuries among aging adults, and this year’s theme – “Ready, Steady, Balance: Prevent Falls in 2016” – seeks to make seniors and their caregivers more prepared, more aware and more proactive when it comes to one of the most significant threats to senior health. Fortunately, the sudden explosion in smart technology and home automation has given us a whole constellation of new tools and methods for helping seniors safely and gracefully age in place for as long as possible.

Remote Monitoring

One third of Americans over the age of 65 fall each year. Remote monitoring helps to address this statistic in several ways. The ability to access security cameras from any mobile device means that you can keep an eye on your loved one no matter where you are. You no longer need to worry about something happening when you aren’t physically present because you can quickly check in at any time. Remote monitoring also means that, should a serious accident happen, a senior alone at home will be able to call for help more quickly than ever before.

Smarter Lighting

As people age, the retinas in their eyes receive less light and their vision takes longer to adjust to sudden changes in brightness. It’s no wonder, then, that poor or improper lighting is a major contributor to falls and injuries among the elderly. One solution to this problem lies in smart lighting, which can automatically turn individual lights on and off based on movement and control home lighting on a pre-set schedule. Some modern tunable LED lights can even be programmed to adjust the color temperature, producing lighting that is warmer or cooler depending on the person’s needs. Even better, smart, efficient lighting allows for the high-illumination light that works best for seniors without leading to much increase in energy costs.

Emergency Alert Systems

While preventing a fall from occurring in the first place is always the primary goal, it simply isn’t possible to prevent every accident. When a senior falls, a quick response can often mean the difference between a minor incident and a traumatic, potentially life-threatening event. The famous television ads – “Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!” – may have spawned many parodies over the years, but the reality is that these alarm systems can and do save lives every day. By placing emergency help just a simple button-press away, these medical alert devices serve as a lifeline and an added layer of protection for seniors who wish to age at home and remain as independent as possible.
Aging in place has long been a goal for most seniors, but the dangers and impracticalities put it out of reach for many people. That’s beginning to change, as technological advances have made it far easier and safer for seniors to live healthy, independent lives well into their golden years. Even those who struggle with disabilities or other health complications have found a helping hand in today’s smarter, more automated homes.

Eco Home Improvements to Save Seniors Money

by Kimberly Johnson
written by Kimberly Johnson

If you are spending more than 10% of your income to keep your home above 21°C, then you meet the World Health Organization’s definition of fuel poverty. This disproportionately affects the elderly, who tend to be on a lower income, live in older homes and spend more time indoors. Combined with weakened health, seniors are also more likely to become seriously ill due to an inability to heat homes. However, this can be tackled by making energy efficiency improvements. This eco-friendly solution could knock thousands of dollars off a senior’s annual fuel bill, helping them to stay warm throughout winter, while limiting their carbon emissions. Eco Home Improvements to Save Seniors Money

Cavity Wall and Attic Insulation

If you are looking for low upfront costs, but monthly savings, then insulation is the way to go. Around 25% of heat is lost through the roof, while a third escapes through the walls. This can be fixed by filling in the roof and cavity walls with insulation. Many older homes lack sufficient insulation or have insulation made of inadequate materials and installed incorrectly. This leaves seniors paying for heat which leaves the house almost immediately. Improving the sustainability of your property can help to lock in this heat, so that the heating is turned on less often and to a lower temperature.

The exact amount of savings depends on a variety of factors including how much insulation you have currently and how large your house is. On average, you can expect to save 15% on energy bills used for heating and cooling by fully insulating your home, with a 117% return on investment. This means that an upfront cost will be fully paid for within a few years and you can spend the rest of your retirement with reduced fuel bills.

Switching to an Energy Efficient Boiler

The boiler has the biggest effect on your monthly bills, with heating taking up 90% of your energy usage. However, many older boilers have an efficiency rating of below 80%, meaning that more than 20% of the energy required is not put towards adding heat, yet it is still being paid for. Replacing an old boiler can be expensive, but it will have the largest effect on reducing your bills, not to mention your carbon emissions.

Upgrading from a boiler with an efficiency rating of 56% to one with a rating of 90% will reduce your carbon emissions by 1.5 tons each year. In financial terms, this means a reduced monthly bill of 35%-45%. This will mean that upfront costs are covered much more quickly and savings are more dramatic. Switching to a renewable energy source such as solar should be your next step towards a reduced carbon footprint and lower energy bills.

Seniors living in a cold climate are at risk of becoming ill if their home is not properly heated. However, without the right insulation and energy efficient boiler, bills can be unaffordable. Try to find the funding for the home improvements, so that you can enjoy savings over the long term and live comfortably into retirement.

Bath Tub Safety Grab Bars

Bath Tub Safety Grab Bars

by Kimberly Johnson
written by Kimberly Johnson

Bath tub grab bars are extremely helpful in preventing falls in the bath tub. Senior.com sells a variety of bars to fit your bathroom. Please watch this quick video instructing you on the use and installation of a bath tub grab bar:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh8Pc6bOens

Bath Tub Grab Bars Installation Tips:

Bathroom safety is paramount for elderly parents, as most accidents and falls happen in the bathroom. Here are six tips for grab bar placement and safety for you or your elderly parent’s home.

Grab Bar Height

There is no standard height requirement for residential installation of grab bars, and everyone’s needs are different. But as a rule of thumb, in ADA-compliant bathrooms, grab bars are installed 33-inches to 36-inches off the finished floor.

Grab Bar Length

Grab bars should cover as much of the shower wall as possible. If you have a large shower, have a bar for each wall to ensure safety.

Attach to Studs

Your grab bars will be rock-solid if you anchor them to studs. Find the studs near your proposed grab bar location using a stud sensor.

Test Strength

You’re not done until you yank-test. Give the bars a good solid yank to test their holding power. With a helper standing by in case the bar comes loose, pull with all your strength. Now’s the time to make sure the bar will hold up when it’s really needed.

Proper Placement

Even a solidly anchored grab bar is useless if it’s in the wrong place. What location is best depends on the situation. If you’re installing the bars for a person with a disability or injury, have this person help you decide which location will be most helpful. A physical therapist or an occupational therapist also can help with this decision.

Placement Suggestions

Here are some locations where grab bars are helpful:
Outside of the Shower or Tub. Having a small grab bar placed vertically outside of the shower or tub entry is great for assistance stepping to and from a wet surface.
Tub Deck. Soaking tubs are all the rage in bathroom design. However, trouble can come quickly if someone is unable to exit the tub. Install a grab bar on the wall behind the tub and/or a small grab bar on the tub deck. Be sure the grab bar is in a place where a foot cannot trip on it while entering or exiting a tub.
Towel Bars with Strength. Let’s face it, when you are about to fall you’ll grab on to anything close by – including a towel bar. Why not make towel bars safer by replacing them with grab bars?
Toilet Paper Holder. For those who have a hard time getting up from a seated position, there are some grab bars that can also be used as a toilet paper holder, while still maintaining its strength of supporting 250 pounds of force.

Guide to Medical Alert Systems

by Kimberly Johnson
written by Kimberly Johnson

Aging in place is a great option for many seniors, but it can also pose challenges for loved ones who are concerned about their well-being and safety. One way to make sure your parent or loved one is safe is by having them use a medical alert device. Medical alert devices can put your loved one in touch with you or emergency services immediately if they fall or have another type of accident. Consumer Guide to Medical Alert Systems
Medical alert devices can be professionally monitored by emergency personnel, or they can send an alert message to a list of personal contacts when an emergency arises. They can be wearable, or they can be standalone systems. Some medical alert systems are voice activated, while others require the push of a button to connect. Talk to your loved one to see which options they prefer before you buy one.
The senior who will use the medical alert device should be involved in the process of choosing and buying one, even if you’re going to be the one paying for it. Understanding how medical alert devices work and what to look for can make shopping for one easier for you and your loved one.
Here are some things for you to consider when choosing a medical alert device:

  • The senior’s activity level: Medical alert devices vary in their range and portability. If your parent or loved one is very active, they’ll likely benefit from a mobile medical alert device that they can take with them as they move around and outside the house. If they are more sedentary or have physical limitations that restrict them to staying inside the house, a medical alert device that’s tied to a landline might be a more practical and cost-effective option.
  • Who should be contacted in the event of an emergency: Monitored medical alert devices are professionally monitored and connect your loved one to emergency personnel immediately. Devices that are not monitored can connect your loved one to a list of contacts instead. Consider how quickly someone can aid your loved one when deciding whether or not you need a monitored system. Many seniors appreciate the peace of mind that comes from a monitored system.
  • How much the device and monitoring cost: Medical alert devices with monitoring cost more than medical alert devices without monitoring. Monitored devices have an additional monthly fee for the monitoring service, while unmonitored devices only cost as much as the product. The cost can be well worth it, though, to keep your loved on safe and allow them to continue living independently.

Medical alert devices keep your aging parent or loved one independent while giving you peace of mind, knowing they are safe and that you and emergency personnel will be contacted immediately in the event of an emergency such as a fall or injury. There are a lot of medical alert device brands to choose from. Do your research on medical alert devices to decide which one makes the most sense for your loved one and your family.

Age at Home and Not a Nursing Home

by Carol Marak
written by Carol Marak

Most of us want to age-in-place. But can we? Affordable, accessible and well-located housing affects the quality of life for all ages, but it’s most significant for older adults. In a report released by The Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University and AARP, it claims that the three key points are the cornerstone to comfort and security. How to Age at Home and Not a Nursing Home
Housing is the single largest item in most budgets and its costs and expenses directly influence financial security. The home’s location and accessibility are essential to health and safety, to stores, services, and transportation. Without the three components, older adults may experience inactive, non-productive, and isolated lives. If an individual lives with a disability or chronic disease, they will suffer since local supports and services could be difficult to find and access. How to Age at Home and Not a Nursing Home
Whether one chooses to remain independent and to grow older at home is up to individual and their loved ones to know if the home will allow them to age-in-place. Start early when assessing your preferences, the readiness of the home, and the community it’s located. How to Age at Home and Not a Nursing Home
I’ve listed suggestions and tips that will make the home safer. Consider these and adapt accordingly.

  • Numerous safety and fall hazards exist in everyone’s homes. What needs fixing is determined not so much by specific hazards, but by observing a person’s ability to maneuver (walk and transfer) safely in the home. For example, extra handrail support becomes a priority for balance.
  • Hire help for difficult talks. Many older adults have fallen off ladders or roofs doing home maintenance. It might be worth hiring someone instead. Keep the home clean by hiring a housekeeper.
  • Home technology helps and keeps people living with chronic illness to have healthcare in the home. While most people will think about physical space modifications, the most underutilized trend is the simple use of technology.
  • Adopt wearable or simple sensors which connect the older consumer with family, emergency support services, and detect falls, allowing family or caregivers to identify issues before they escalate and exacerbate.
  • Think of the future every time you make a change to a room. Every renovation should consider future need or ability to retrofit. Select lever handle faucet and add lighting options in dark hallways and bathrooms. Are studs in place for grab bars?
  • Use the assistive devices that are available to you-canes, walkers, hearing aids, etc. Look critically at how you use your space and what changes would make it easier for you to maneuver in your house. Get an evaluation from a physical therapist.

Think ahead. When considering retirement, some gravitate toward a place in the countryside, which feels like a good idea when active and able. However, there are real advantages to having neighbors, friends, and family close by.

Need a Clearinghouse for Clearing the House?

by Kimberly Johnson
written by Kimberly Johnson

 
Fingers crossed. A friend is trading her suburban house for an urban condo, which means the baby grand has to go. It has had no takers. At the last minute, I see a post from a gentleman who orchestrates neighborhood events seeking…a piano! He can handle the move and tuning. I rush to contact both people and arrange an introduction. They share a dream of keeping the music going; neither can fathom a baby grand being left at the dump. It might work out. Need a Clearinghouse for Clearing the House?
Welcome to the new world of downsizing…where anyone can be a matchmaker.
Downsizing a large household used to mean filling two or three dumpsters for the landfill, but only after the kids gathered up the bulk of the furniture and heirlooms. The elders of the family streamlined their material worlds for easy living. The mantle was passed to the next generation of hosts of large family gatherings along with all the trappings. The legacy remained intact, staying in the family.
Lifestyle changes and concern for the environment have altered the way people see the bountiful home. Millennials, coping with less money and space, are saying no thanks to traditional decorating. As a result, yesterday’s collectors find themselves scrapping the plan to give everything to the kids as they embark on an angst-filled search for anyone who might take their stuff. And to make matters worse, it now seems one needs a crash course in waste management to navigate the landfill.
As a downsizer, It is okay, perhaps essential, to take a moment to mourn whatever piece of the past might get lost as you face your belongings. But do not panic. Remind yourself again and again that you are lightening your load to free your spirit and renew your own vitality. Embrace the process in ways that serve you best and engage with others to expand your understanding of the possibilities.
Pay attention to your own feelings as you explore new surroundings. Find the best of your belongings to take with you so that you have what you need and what you love. Then build a community to help you take that deep dive into the discard pile from your material world. People from local charities, consignment shops, and online message boards in your neighborhood can become your new best friends.
And remember…your family may not want your stuff, but they can still help. Cleaning out the house can be a nostalgia-fest with your kids, your siblings, cousins, friends, anyone you need by your side. Learn to say yes to anyone offering help with the sorting and packing, and enlist the tech-savvy to gather research on remote donation sites or specialty recycling. Soon you’ll be strutting your stuff – even at the landfill – like a pro. Need a Clearinghouse for Clearing the House?

It’s Not Mean to Get Lean

by Kimberly Johnson
written by Kimberly Johnson

In fact, it’s kind of mean to the folks left with the stuff if you don’t get lean. Do your elders have 60, 70, 80+ years of stuff? Have they ever trimmed down any of it? If you are a bit fuzzy about the answer, now’s the time to get serious about helping them get lean! It’s Not Mean to Get Lean

 
Recently, we moved my mother-in-law to assisted living. She fell this summer and couldn’t live independently any more. That meant that the house was left exactly as it had been when she fell – full of 87 years of treasures (and some not-quite-treasures too). It’s Not Mean to Get Lean
My MIL often laughed when we’d suggest sorting through her things, deciding what to keep, what to gift and what to donate to charity. She’d say “No, I’ll just leave it to you kids to do when I’m pushing up daisies.” She’s not pushing up daisies but we are left with a HUGE task and it’s not fun.
It’s not malicious, but it’s not nice either, to leave all of the digging, sorting, evaluating, delivering, selling, gifting, boxing, storing, etc., etc. to the younger folks.
So, today’s message: DON’T ACCEPT NO AS AN ANSWER!
If your elders don’t want to start sorting, you start sorting and sit near them so they can’t help but be involved. Ask them to tell you the stories about items you find. Write down the story and attach it to the treasured item. If it doesn’t have a story, ask your elder why they have it.
Have they used it in the last year? Will they use it before next year? Do they have someone special in mind in the family to gift it to? If the answers are NO, it needs to become “special” to someone else, somewhere else.
Disperse this task among family members, if you can. It’s hard and the pain should be shared.
Send the items that are intended for various family members on to them now. Send the story along with the item(s).
Decide who should keep the family photos, slides, albums, diplomas, keepsakes and files. Hint: this should not all go to the same person.
What do you do with Great, Great Grandpa’s certificate for finishing grade school? (I don’t have an answer for that one. Well, I have one but your elder won’t want to hear it.)
Decide now who will take the kitchen items, the furniture, the piano, the desk from Aunt Polly, the books, the china, the Corningware, the Christmas decorations and the Tommy Tippee cup.
If you do the “heavy lifting” now, your elder might think you’re mean but they will be giving you, your family and themselves a real gift – The Gift of Being Lean!

Selecting Grab Bars for Bathroom Safety

by Kimberly Johnson
written by Kimberly Johnson

Instructional video on selecting a grab bar for your bathroom safety. Grab bars are particularly important in preventing dangerous bathroom falls. For Seniors, 85% of falls in the home occur in the bathroom and may have been prevented if the proper support was available. Add grab bars to your shower and tub BEFORE you think you need them. Selecting Grab Bars for Bathroom Safety
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QPkdTV3HZ0

Know Before You Shop for Grab Bars

  • Tile might seem fragile, but it’ll seem like an impenetrable barrier to standard twist drill bits, which will crack your tile. Instead, use a 1/4-in glass / tile drill bit for mounting bars over studs or a 1/2-in glass/tile drill bit for installations using special wall anchors. (Odds are you’ll need both.)
  • Avoid mounting grab bars on acrylic tub and shower surrounds that stand out from the drywall underneath. These walls bend and flex.
  • If someone in the family lacks grip strength, choose smaller-diameter bars. Then decide whether the bar finish can be a glossy piece of bathroom bling or if it needs to be textured for better grip by wet hands.
  • Some grab bars are specifically made to mount vertically, horizontally, or in either position. (There’s no “right” mounting, so choose what works for you.) Check the package to be sure the model you want works in the position you want.

Where to Install Grab Bars

Grab Bar Mounting Location Diagram

Try climbing in and out of your tub or shower—minus the water—to get an idea where grab bars should be placed, and mount them where they work best for everyone using that bathroom. Always mount grab bars into a stud that sits behind the wall. Or, if the stud can’t be located, use an anchoring device. Be sure there is adequate room within the hollow area behind the wall so an anchoring device will work. Grab bars can be placed vertically, horizontally or diagonally depending on your needs.
At the entry to the shower or tub.

  • To help facilitate entry and exit, install a grab bar vertically in front of the shower or tub. A smaller grab bar (12-in, 16-in, or 18-in) works well for this purpose, although longer ones can accommodate users of various heights. Having a grab bar here helps prevent the tendency to reach for towel bars, sliding glass doors or other unstable fixtures.
  • Vertical grab bars are also good for both shorter and taller people to grip at a comfortable height.

In the shower or tub.

  • Horizontal grab bars mounted inside the tub or shower provide added stability, whereas diagonal grab bars provide added stability when lowering to sit on a shower seat.
  • Generally a 16-in grab bar or a grab bar that is a multiple of 16 (16-in, 32-in, or 48-in) works best. In most cases studs are located 16 inches apart on center. Always attach grab bars to studs or use secure mounting anchors the manufacturer recommends.

Near the toilet.

  • Installing a grab bar near the toilet can provide great assistance in both sitting or standing. Used in conjunction with a chair height toilet or raised toilet seat and this can further improve comfort and ease of use.
  • Generally, a grab bar is installed either horizontally or diagonally near the toilet.
  • A diagonal grab bar is more in tune with the natural movement of the hand and wrist and puts less strain on the wrist. They also offer the ability to grip at varied heights, making them comfortable for both shorter and taller people.
  • When installed diagonally, a grab bar may not reach between studs. If this is the case, it can be mounted with secure mounting anchors used at one or both ends of the grab bar.
