Sharing is Caring- A Guide to Make and Keep Caregiving Personal

July 06, 2023 15:00 - 16 minutes - 15.4 MB

One of the things that have concerned us is there's been a lot of caregivers coming in and out of my parents' home. And that's with them just having someone once or twice a week. It's rarely been the same person. And for someone with dementia, we really feel like a little bit of consistency would be very key. And we've not achieved that yet. ~Kimberly Massey   Here is what Kim and Kimberly will be discussing today. 1.     Like many families yours has chosen to keep your dad at home for as...

So, I have two brothers and two sisters. Which, you know, when you consider the caregiving circle, so to say, it's great to have that.

June 15, 2023 15:00 - 15 minutes - 14.4 MB

So many of them were literally mourning the loss of their house. And it just got me to thinking, you know, what a major transition that is, and a big loss for so many people because don't we love our houses? And often these moves are just so hasty and stressful, and tempers are flaring, people are at odds with each other, and nobody takes the time to acknowledge the magnitude of the change that this person is going through. ~ Libbie Vaughan   Here is what Kim and Libbie will be discussing ...

When is the “Right” Time to Ask for Help/Assistance? A Senior’s Perspective

June 08, 2023 15:00 - 12 minutes - 11.5 MB

I think they are afraid of losing their independence. You know, seniors are afraid that if they ask for help, their loved ones or their care partners or people that they put in control of their life are just going to pack up their belongings and send them to a care facility. And so they're scared, they don't want to be a burden. ~ Candace Green   Here is what Kim and Candace will be discussing today.   1. Why do seniors “put off” getting help? 2.

Staying Home with Dementia

May 18, 2023 15:00 - 17 minutes - 16.3 MB

So anytime someone goes into a long-term placement facility, or nursing home assisted living memory care unit, it is never going to be one-on-one care. You're never going to have one-on-one care unless you're hiring a private caregiver to sit with that individual. And so with long-term care placement, that's very different than at home, where individuals will have usually one-on-one care. Even if it's their family and they know those people, you know, they're familiar. What we know about de...

Polypharmacy and Our Elder Community- What You Need To Know

May 11, 2023 15:00 - 17 minutes - 15.8 MB

The dark side is when polypharmacy leads to patient harm. So people that tend to take more than almost seven meds or so are at a higher risk of falls, a higher risk of over-sedation, and a higher risk of medication side effects. And so, a lot of times seniors go to the ER or hospital because of this reason. And it's because they're taking so many meds, they're not sure what the drug interactions are, and it puts them in harm's way. ~ DeLon Canterbury, PharmD, BCGP   Title- Polypharmacy an...

May 04, 2023 15:00 - 19 minutes - 18.1 MB

It's good to get to know each other, but I think you also have to keep that professional boundary role. So, you know, what is the information they need to know to provide the best care? And what, and how can you as the family provide that in a way that's respecting the person that he or she'll be caring for. Respecting their privacy and boundaries and dignity. But also giving them the specifics that they need to give the best care. I think it was important to communicate that my grandfather...

“Now, I wish that the businesses that employ them, the people we elect in Washington, were doing more. But until they do right, we can control only ourselves.

“We literally built a wall around the set of spiral stairs and made them disappear to her. She no longer knows that those spiral stairs are there.

People Don't Die Like in The Movies

March 30, 2023 15:00 - 26 minutes - 24.4 MB

Dementia doesn't play by the rules. The rules I'm referring to are the three areas that I look for to tell me if a person has entered the dying process. I don't even have to know someone's diagnosis. I'm going to ask what's their eating habits. What are their sleeping habits, and what are their withdrawal habits? Like I said a little bit earlier with dementia, those three things don't apply because withdrawal social ability, a person who has dementia, can be withdrawn for years and not have...

Laughter Yoga and Dementia

March 02, 2023 16:00 - 21 minutes - 19.8 MB

Baylor College of Medicine a number of years ago said that I think it was like 85% of all, illnesses begin with the body overloaded with stress. And so sometimes we're stressed even when we don't know we are. Because we're breathing shallowly or holding our breath and the body interprets that as stress. And so in laughter yoga, the stress levels of cortisol, which is one of the main ones, go down very quickly. And so we have what is being elevated is what I call happy hormones. Emma Ferguson...

But sometimes I will have a spouse that will pass and the other one says, Well, I'm not going to bother probating because I'm going to stay in the house. And then they pass.

And I think when those types of setbacks happen and your loved one has progressed more in the disease, it's helpful to acknowledge it. And then try to reframe it. ~ Mary Moreland- Author of Th...
