YOUR THURSDAY RESOURCE - BECAUSE CARE STARTS WITH KNOWLEDGE! SMALL TIPS, BIG IMPACT!

They've got the LTC Policy - LET'S USE IT!

Millions of families have long-term care insurance, but most don't realize it can help pay for in-home care.

If you're working with someone who has a policy, connect them to me. I will help them use those benefits to stay safe and independent at home.

Let's make sure no family misses out on care they've already paid for and deserve.

The Right Question Can Change Everything!

Today I’m sharing something a little different. This is not a sales pitch, but a conversation starter.

Our tool below called, Let’s Talk About What Matters to You, helps seniors open up about what they really need—without pressure or judgment.

Questions like…

What would help you feel more confident at home?

What feels harder or riskier than before?

What would it look like to have a little support?

When you ask these open ended questions it feels like listening, not selling.

And when families are ready, that’s where we step in, with respectful, personalized home care that feels like a gift, not a threat.

Vineyard Home Health is here to help with these conversations, situations, or any other resources that we can assist you with.

Call Amanda, cell/text 469-309-2115, office 972-521-3353, or email community@vineyardhomehealth.com, or visit our website at www.vineyardhomehealth.com. You are never alone with Vineyard!

Breaking the Hospital–Home–Hospital Cycle

Too many seniors go from hospital to rehab to home… and then right back again.

I’m sharing a quick tool showing how home care fills the gap prevents readmissions through daily care, medication reminders, and early intervention. If you’re working with a patient who’s been in and out of the hospital, let’s talk.

A simple care visit can change everything

June was Alzheimer’s Awareness Month…you’re never more aware than when this disease hits your family! Just wanted to share this wish list to help care for your loved one.

In Honor of someone you know or knew who has dementia. In Honor of all those I know and love and lost who are fighting Dementia/Alzheimer’s.

If I get dementia, I’d like my family to hang this wish list up on the wall where I live. I want them to remember these things.

1a. Every time you enter the room announce yourself. “Hi Mom- it’s Margaret.”
NEVER ask- Do you know who I am??? That causes anxiety.

1. If I get dementia, I want my friends and family to embrace my reality.

2. If I think my spouse is still alive, or if I think we’re visiting my parents for dinner, let me believe those things. I’ll be much happier for it.

3. If I get dementia, don’t argue with me about what is true for me versus what is true for you.

4. If I get dementia, and I am not sure who you are, do not take it personally. My timeline is confusing to me.

5. If I get dementia, and can no longer use utensils, do not start feeding me. Instead, switch me to a finger-food diet, and see if I can still feed myself.

6. If I get dementia, and I am sad or anxious, hold my hand and listen. Do not tell me that my feelings are unfounded.

7. If I get dementia, I don’t want to be treated like a child. Talk to me like the adult that I am.

8. If I get dementia, I still want to enjoy the things that I’ve always enjoyed. Help me find a way to exercise, read, and visit with friends.

9. If I get dementia, ask me to tell you a story from my past.

10. If I get dementia, and I become agitated, take the time to figure out what is bothering me.

11. If I get dementia, treat me the way that you would want to be treated.

12. If I get dementia, make sure that there are plenty of snacks for me in the house. Even now if I don’t eat I get angry, and if I have dementia, I may have trouble explaining what I need.

13. If I get dementia, don’t talk about me as if I’m not in the room.

14. If I get dementia, don’t feel guilty if you cannot care for me 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It’s not your fault, and you’ve done your best. Find someone who can help you, or choose a great new place for me to live.

15. If I get dementia, and I live in a dementia care community, please visit me often.

16. If I get dementia, don’t act frustrated if I mix up names, events, or places. Take a deep breath. It’s not my fault.

17. If I get dementia, make sure I always have my favorite music playing within earshot.

18. If I get dementia, and I like to pick up items and carry them around, help me return those items to their original place.

19. If I get dementia, don’t exclude me from parties and family gatherings.

20. If I get dementia, know that I still like receiving hugs or handshakes.

21. If I get dementia, remember that I am still the person you know and love.”
