Dear Readers,From our family to yours, thank you for picking up your copy of Retirement Connection and sharing this resource with your family and friends. We are a small family business and we greatly appreciate your support and valuable feedback. Together with the local hospitals, healthcare providers, area agencies on aging and disability offices we are able to provide the most comprehensive resource for Southern Oregon.
We are honored to be the “official resource” for Asante Medical Centers and the ADRC of Jackson and Josephine Counties. We have also worked closely with CHI Mercy Medical Center and UCAN for increased distribution in Douglas County.
Due to the support of our sponsors, Retirement Connection is available and free to the community. Please return the favor by supporting them when you find a need for their services.
Our goal is to be the most comprehensive local resource for the community, as well as the care providers. The table of contents covers more than 100 topics of information, please view page 10 for a quick reference on how to best use this guide. The Caregiver Checklist and Information Request Form are available to provide ongoing support. I encourage you to visit www.RetirementConnection.com for: enhanced search options, event calendars, a thorough glossary of terms,
additional articles, and links to local provider emails and websites. We will also continue to update the website daily with new listings or changing information.
Additional copies of the guide may be found at: Area Agency on Aging offices, Libraries, Senior Centers, Hospitals, Housing Communities, and local events. We have printed 50,000 total copies of this annual publication. If your physician’s office, church, or other organization would like additional copies, we are happy to provide these at no cost.

Retirement Connection Guide • 1-800-462-1316
What are Homemaker/Home Health Aide (H/HHA) Services? Taking care of another can be mentally and physically demanding. A spouse or an individual trying to do it all can quickly become depressed, injured or just worn out. A Homemaker/Home Health Aide is a trained caregiver who can come to a Veteran's home and help the Veteran take care of themselves and their daily needs. A Homemaker/ Home Health Aide can also be used as a way to get Respite Care at home for the family caregiver. They can help Veterans remain living in their own home.
Homemaker/Home Health Aides are not nurses, but they are supervised by a registered nurse who oversees the Veteran's daily living needs. They are trained, licensed, bonded and insured caregivers. Homemaker/Home Health Aides work for contracted, VA-approved organizations that specialize in assisting Veterans who need skilled services such as assistance with activities of daily living or instrumental activities of daily living. Services can be used in combination with other Home and Community Based Services.
Who is eligible? Homecare services are part of a service within the VHA Standard Medical Benefits Package, all enrolled Veterans are eligible if they meet the clinical need for the service. There is no age requirement.
A co-pay for Homemaker/Home Health Aide services may be charged based on the veteran's VA service-connected disability status.
Services are based on the veteran's assessed needs. A veteran or family caregiver can talk with a VA social worker to find out what specific help they may be able to receive. For example, a caregiver may be able to come to the home daily, several times a week or just once in a while, depending on veteran's needs and what the VA has approved.
What services can I get? A brief list of daily activities you may be able to receive help with include:
• Eating
• Gettingdressed
• Bathing
• Usingthebathroom
• Movingfromoneplacetoanother
• Shoppingforfood
• Cooking&Cleaning
• Doinglaundry
• Takingmedication
• Gettingtoappointments
• Usingthetelephone
What about help for the spouse caring for a veteran (Respite Care)?
For the Family Caregiver, it can be hard to find time for a much-needed break from the daily routine and care responsibilities. Respite care is time for relaxing and renewing energy. If a Veteran requires a Caregiver, the spouse is eligible to receive up to 30 days of respite care per year. The care can be offered in a variety of settings including in your home.
Respite care may also be provided after family caregiver's unexpected hospitalization, a need to go out of town, or a family emergency. Staying strong, caring for your Veteran means staying strong yourself. By taking an opportunity to be refreshed through respite care, you may be amazed at how your fresh outlook will help you and your Veteran.

Volunteer ombudsmen are needed in your community! Volunteer Ombudsmen are resident advocates. They ensure that the concerns of residents of long-term care and residential facilities are heard and addressed. They advocate for quality of care and improvements to Oregon’s long-term care and residential facility systems. The Office of the Long-Term Care Ombudsman provides Volunteer Ombudsmen with training, certification and continuing support. See how you can make a difference by reading below, calling us at 800-522-2602 and visiting us on the web at www.oregon.gov/ltco.
The Office of the Long-Term Care Ombudsman advocates for the rights of Oregonians living in licensed long-term care and residential facilities. The office consists of:
The Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, a free, confidential advocacy program available to residents, families, facility staff and the public. Ombudsmen advocate for residents of nursing facilities, residential care and assisted living facilities, and adult foster care homes. Complaints are investigated and resolved by professional ombudsmen and trained volunteers assigned to facilities.
The Residential Facilities Ombudsman Program, available in late 2015, is a free, confidential advocacy program for persons with mental health conditions and persons with intellectual/developmental disabilities who live in residential facilities. Ombudsmen assist residents, families, facility staff, and the public by advocating for residents, addressing resident concerns, investigating problems, and consulting about the residential facility system.
The Oregon Public Guardian Program is a new statewide program that will serve as a court-appointed guardian and/or conservator for adults with limited decision-making ability. Services will be limited to persons at significant risk of abuse or neglect and who have no responsible family member or friend to serve as their guardian or conservator, nor the resources for a private guardian or conservator. The program will begin taking referrals summer 2015. It is presently recruiting for professional staff.

100% of us will age – It is HOW we age and how we connect with others that helps us age gracefully. Through our lives, our circumstances constantly change. Children leave for college, grandkids are born, friendships are made, disability or illness may happen, life happens. So, how do we stay connected as our circumstances change around us? Often it takes support or encouragement from family, friends and other members in our community.
Today there are increasing strides and medical advances in healthcare, and we are all living longer than any generation before. With this opportunity, a new group has emerged: those living in their “bonus years.” This group is living much longer than the typical US expectancy of 78 years and is not just existing in life but are thriving. With this longevity comes a desire to enjoy all that life offers and remain “forever 30”.
Sometimes there may come a time when our bodies are not keeping up with our intentions. In these “bonus years” there is becoming a increased demand for interactive caregiving. Lifestyles include: attending plays, shopping with friends, playing golf, or just enjoying a glass of wine. In general- to stay connected. Today as the greatest generation is aging, we have more true seniors than ever before in our lifetime, and not enough opportunities to get involved. This can leave an active senior depressed or isolated. It is just as important to have a great conversation with a neighbor as it is to go for a healthy walk. We should
look for more opportunities to engage the social side and be a more interactive caregiver for our loved ones.
What does it mean to be an interactive caregiver? An interactive caregiver encourages others by doing things with them, and not for them. Activities are planned to encourage life long learning, continued growth and creating new opportunities. Interactive time can be spent on the duties and activities that we participated or enjoyed during our lifetime. Some activities may be more challenging as health issues and other physical and mental challenges are involved. It could be as simple as preparing a meal, setting the table, creating a new photo album, or writing family notes. The goal is to work with our loved ones and not for them so there is a higher quality of life. Sometimes for family caregivers, interactive caregiving can be extremely rewarding but also can also be exhausting.
Adult day services, senior community centers, and homecare agencies are a great resource. The interactive caregiving in these services allow for vital regular interaction and socialization with peers with a greater feeling of connectedness and less isolation. Activities should promote physical, mental, social, and emotional well-being, so we may all live a full and connected life.

Southern Oregon is a wonderful place to live. Our beautiful scenery, relaxed pace of life, vibrant cultural assets, and strong communities benefit long-time residents as well as those who retire here. However, sometimes family members or friends have concerns as their loved ones change or develop more complicated needs. Do any of these situations sound familiar?
I am worried about my elderly mom, who lives with us. She used to be ok at home while I was at work but now she wanders away from the house or leaves the stove on.
My dad lives alone and hasn’t been eating good meals.
My husband used to be so sweet, but his dementia has gotten worse.
I am exhausted caring for my developmentally disabled son while working full-time.
My neighbor fell and broke her hip, and I’m not sure it’s safe for her at home.
I think my mom’s caregiver is stealing from her.
I wish I could control my heart disease better—I’m afraid to do anything strenuous.
There is now a simple way to determine if individuals or families can benefit from a variety of services/programs available in the Jackson/Josephine County area including:
information and one-on-one counseling
home-delivered meals
family caregiver support
elder abuse and fraud prevention
access to in-home or community based services
Chronic disease, Diabetes, or Chronic Pain Self-Management workshops
The access point for these and other services is Rogue Valley Council of Government’s Aging and Disability Resource Connection (ADRC), a free, one-stop source of information and assistance that anyone can access, either on their own behalf or on behalf of another. The approach is collaborative, working with individuals and family members on joint problem-solving and options to address their needs.
The Aging and Disability Resource Connection is a free, nationwide initiative. To reach out for assistance:
Local calls: 541-618-7572 Statewide toll-free: 1-855-ORE-ADRC (1-855-673-2372)
Visit the website: (local) [email protected] (statewide) www.ADRCofOregon.org
The need to use aging and disability services for ourselves or someone we know may occur only once or twice in our lives. It is something we rarely plan for – but inevitably it happens. And when it happens, now there is no need to hesitate—the ADRC is there to help!

ces Urgent care or emergency room?
Where to go when you’re not feeling wellWhen you are sick or in pain, it can be hard to make good health care decisions. You just want to feel better as soon as possible.
That’s why understanding the pros and cons of your options today can help you make better choices when it counts.
Your regular doctor’s office is the best place to start when you aren’t well. They know you and your health history best. When you call them about an illness or injury, they can help you choose the tests and treatments that are best tailored to your needs.
But what if you need help at a time that your doctor’s office is closed?
If your problem is not life threatening, you might save time and money by going to an urgent care clinic instead of the emergency department (ED).
Urgent care clinics (also known as convenient care) are designed to see you on the same day that you make the appointment.
They have X-ray and lab services like a hospital, but often without the long wait time or expense of going to the ED.
Local data shows that at least 25 percent of people who go to the emergency department could be treated faster at a clinic.
For example, you might go to an urgent care if you have: Cold/ flu symptoms A bite or sting Minor burns Rashes A cut needing stitches Joint or muscle pain A strain or sprain
Suspected broken bones (no visible bone) A urinary tract infection
Of course, some conditions really are emergencies. The ED is the best place for treating severe and life-threatening conditions.
They offer the widest range of services for emergency after-hours care, including diagnostic tests, specialists and the option to be admitted to the hospital for longer-term treatment.
They’re also open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. But emergency care is also the most expensive type of care.
Emergency conditions include: Suspected appendicitis Chest pain Difficulty breathing Bleeding that won’t stop Compound fractures (broken bones
you can see through the skin) Head and neck trauma Infants with fever Seizures Stroke Sudden behavioral changes
(can be a sign of brain injury)
Suicidal thoughts or actions
Keep in mind that even if your condition is on the emergency list, you may not be seen right away. The most severely ill or injured patients are always seen first.

The Alzheimer’s Association is here to help you any time. If you or a loved one needs resources or support, call our 24/7 Helpline at 800-272-3900. We also offer many Web-based services you can access whenever and wherever it is most convenient for you.
Alzheimer’s and Dementia Caregiver Center (alz.org/care)
Caring for a person with Alzheimer’s often involves a team of people, and no matter your role, there is much to do and plenty to know. But it doesn’t have to be a lot of work to find the resources and support you need. The Alzheimer’s and Dementia Caregiver Center can help. While there, be sure to check out the Community Resource Finder and the Care Team Calendar.
ALZConnected (www.alzconnected.org)
This online social networking community is designed specifically for people with Alzheimer’s disease and their caregivers. Members can connect and communicate with people who understand their unique challenges. They can also pose questions and offer solutions to dementia-related issues, create public and private groups organized around a dedicated topic and contribute to message boards.
Alzheimer’s Navigator (www.alzheimersnavigator.org)
A diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease raises many questions. Alzheimer’s Navigator helps guide you to answers by creating a customized action plan and linking to information, support and local resources. Depending on the needs of the user, specific action steps are created for the following areas: planning for the
future, working with doctors/health care professionals, caregiver support, activities of daily living, home safety, driving and knowledge of Alzheimer’s.
E-learning (elearning.alz.org)
The Alzheimer’s Association Oregon Chapter offers classes every quarter throughout the state, and some of our classes are also offered online — and are available 24/7.
“I Have Alzheimer’s” (alz.org/IHaveAlz)
“I Have Alzheimer’s” is a section of the Alzheimer’s Association’s website created with input from individuals living with the disease. It is easy to navigate and helps answers many questions, including:
How do others respond to their diagnosis?
What should I expect as the disease progresses?
How should I plan for my future?
How do I live day to day?
What resources are available through the Alzheimer’s Association?
This comprehensive website offers information and advice for people in the early stage of the disease. We encourage users to take their time and digest the content at a comfortable pace. They can return as often as needed; we’re always here to help.

If you or someone close to you has recently been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD), you probably have many questions and concerns and you may be on an emotional rollercoaster.
Remember that you are not alone. As many as one million people in the US and an estimated seven to ten million worldwide live with Parkinson’s disease.
With a diagnosis now in hand and the freedom to learn at your own pace, you can begin to understand Parkinson’s and its treatments and the role they will play in your life. Your diagnosis can be the first step to taking charge of your life with Parkinson’s disease. What are some next steps?
Inform Yourself about PD:
You will need time to adjust to the new diagnosis, so educate yourself about PD – slowly. Parkinson’s Resources of Oregon provides individual counseling, educational workshops, a HelpLine, suggestions of local support groups and classes to help you and your loved ones become informed.
Assemble a HealthCare Team:
Managing PD and the varied symptoms that arise over time requires expertise and a team of health professionals. In addition to a neurologist you trust, you might seek connection with a social worker, physical therapist, speech therapist and of course your primary physician as well.
Make a Plan for Telling Friends and Family:
As Parkinson’s symptoms progress, friends and family may notice changes and become concerned – even though you are feeling fine! Remember, you control the information about your diagnosis and how you share with others. A simple explanation is typically sufficient. If you have concerns about disclosing at your workplace, ask your physician or seek advice.
Accept Support From Others:
You don’t have to cope with Parkinson’s alone. There is a community ready to accept you, share stories of success and bolster you on down days.
Get Moving!
There is no better time than today to take action to control your health and wellness. Find an exercise class, learn about nutrition and engage with your neurologist to optimize your treatment plan.
With Parkinson’s disease, situations will change. You will need to be prepared, flexible, and willing to seek information and support as needed.
If you have questions about Parkinson’s, resources in the community or would like to schedule a time to talk with one of our counselors, please call: 800-426.6806.

The Gatekeeper Program trains employees in the community to recognize warning signs that indicate an older adult or adult with disabilities may be at risk of isolation or abuse. There are a variety of businesses/organizations where employees routinely interact with residents through the course of their regular duties. The Gatekeeper program trains these employees to be the eyes and ears of the community.
Some people who need help do not ask for it because they are isolated, unable to ask on their own, or lack family or friends who can advocate on their behalf. Others may think they are fine and don't need help, or that social services are for people other than themselves. Some people don’t trust government, are afraid of becoming victims of a scam or worry they can’t afford to pay for the services they need. At times, people’s mental health or cognitive impairments may not allow them to recognize changes in their own situation or dangers. Gatekeepers can help overcome these barriers.
Gatekeepers are employees who interact with older adults or adults with disabilities on a regular basis, get to know their customers, and are in a position to recognize significant changes. Examples: Utility Company Workers Police Officers Bank and Credit Union Personnel Apartment Managers Community or Family Members Support and Social Service Programs Firemen Transportation Providers Letter Carriers
The Gatekeeper program “opens the gates” to services offered through the Aging and Disability Resource Connection (ADRC). Services offered through the Aging and Disability Resource Connection include: Bathing, housekeeping, and other
personal needs Care options counseling Legal services Family and caregiver support Home-delivered meals Medical and adaptive equipment Transportation Adult Protective Services
Gatekeepers are trained to recognize red flags that indicate an individual may be in need and to make a referral to the ADRC. They look for changes in communication, cognitive condition, financial situation, emotional health, physical decline, or personal appearance. An ADRC staff person follows up on the call. The Gatekeeper referral may result in a phone call or home visit to the person to make sure the person receives appropriate services. In extreme cases of suspected abuse or neglect the ADRC staff person may call Adult Protective services.
The service offers anonymity for the Gatekeeper and confidentiality for the older adult. All services are voluntary, so individuals contacted by the ADRC have the right to refuse. Still, they have the comfort of knowing that there are caring people in the Gatekeeper program who are watching out for them.
If you have concerns about an older person or a person with a disability who may be in a vulnerable situation, call the ADRC at 541-664-6674, www.ADRCofOregon.org www.rvcog.org

As we age, many older adults consider the aches and pains they have from day to day just something they will have to live with. This does not have to be the case. Most people are surprised to learn that their discomfort simply comes from postural issues alone.
For patients of all ages, reducing pain, tension (stress), mental and physical fatigue is often the goal of therapeutic massages. With the correct procedure, one can tackle such ailments as the lowering of blood pressure, improving postural alignment, increasing lung capacity and lung activity, aiding digestion and elimination, strengthening and supporting endocrine production. There’s no doubt that in addition to relaxing you (like a mini-vacation would), a good massage can bolster your immune system and aid in your overall health.
Understanding the need for interdisciplinary cooperation is essential for achieving optimal goals and outcomes. This is to suggest that frequently there are places for combining conventional and ‘alternative’ approaches. It is unlikely for only one treatment system to have the ability to address every condition or issue. In more advanced methods of therapeutic massage there needs to be an understanding of the links between many chronic conditions and a variety of contributing factors. These can be addressed, without the
use of medications, through specialty treatment methods such as Myofascial Release, a system of gently relaxing and realigning the muscles to improve and restore more functional posture. With the application of Myofascial Release the goal is to return you to a pain free active life.
The human touch, one person reaching out to another demonstrating concern or to alleviate discomfort predates ‘modern medicine’ by thousands of years. Most people, almost without exception, feel improvement when they are the recipients of appropriate massage therapy techniques. Few categories of health issues will not be improved by a skilled professional massage practitioner, but many will be.
Oregon has a rigorous licensing system mandated by our state’s regulations which contributes to the high standards required of those who must pass not only one but two State Board examinations; a written test and a hands-on practical exam. Oregon is one of only six states nationwide to have a two-step Board Examination process. This degree of standards, education and training helps foster a greater appreciation of Oregon’s Licensed Massage Therapists.

DID YOU KNOW...
According to The New England Journal of Medicine, patients who chose hospice and palliative care lived three months longer and had better quality of life, with fewer side effects than those who opted for aggressive medical treatment.
Hospice is covered for qualifying Medicare and Medicaid patients, and most health insurance has a hospice benefit.
WHAT IS HOSPICE?
Hospice is expert, compassionate care for people expected to live less than six months. Hospice helps meet the physical, emotional, spiritual, and practical needs of dying patients and their families. Hospice teams visit patients wherever they live. Services include:
Pain and symptom management
Emotional and spiritual support
Expert pharmacy and medical equipment services
Comfort therapies: massage, aromatherapy, music & art therapy
Respite care for fatigued caregivers
Help with end of life planning
Grief and bereavement services
TYPICAL HOSPICE SUPPORT CONSISTS OF:
RN—The registered nurse (RN) coordinates care between physicians, facility staff, pharmacy, medical procedures and the patient’s family. The RN ensures that the patient receives optimal supportive care.
Social Worker—The social worker provides counseling and resource management.
Nursing Assistants—Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) provide comfort focused on personal care, activities of daily living and mobility.
Volunteer Services—Volunteers offer companionship through listening, diversion and activities that enhance quality of life. Their duties are flexible to meet the unique needs of each patient and their family.
Bereavement Services—Trained grief counselors provide support to families and professional care givers.
Chaplain Support—Chaplains are trained to support each patient’s and family’s unique spiritual identity and religious faith as they approach end-of-life.
Family and friends—When you or a loved one need end-of-life help, hospice is there for you.

g Housing Definitions:Adult Day Care Programs offer a protective setting during the day, for those who cannot be left alone due to health care and social needs. The structured program within a community setting offers: socialization, planned activities, care services, companionship and meals. Adult Day Care provides daytime respite for the caregiver who typically works, needs time for other responsibilities, or simply to take a break. Some programs are designed for older adults with dementia and/or physical limitations. Programs through senior housing communities that are listed in this guide must be able to accept non-residents to be included.
Adult Foster Care Homes or Family Care Homes are private residences that provide a home-like setting, and serve 5 or less residents. The caregiver may perform several functions, such as personal care, housekeeping and activities and group meals. There are three levels of Adult Foster Care Home licenses. The classification system is based on the level of care the Adult Foster Home may provide to residents who live in the home as well as the experience and training of the providers and their ability to assist residents with: personal hygiene, mobility, eating, dressing, toileting, and behavior management. Residents may require very light assistance or may be dependent with several care needs; it is best to ask individual locations for their specific policies and license.
Assisted Living Facilities (ALF) are State-regulated rental properties where six or more residents may reside. Care assistance is available, including: medication management, bathing, dressing, toileting and eating. Apartments must be fully self-contained private living units with a lockable door, private bathroom, and kitchenette facilities. The fee schedule is regular monthly rent along with additional fees for specific services and amenities. Assisted living communities are best suited for individuals who want to remain as independent as possible and who are able to direct their own care.
CCRCs (Continuing Care Retirement Communities) are communities that include a continuum of care with independent living, assisted living, residential care and skilled nursing services all on one campus, allowing individuals to live within the same community as their needs progress through the spectrum of care. They typically offer the full selection of amenities associated with retirement living. An endowment fee in addition to a monthly maintenance fee can be expected.
Independent Living Communities (IL) provide residents with an independent living setting without the burden of home ownership. Typically, residency is established on a monthly rental basis. Residents live in fully equipped private apartments or cottages from studios to large two-bedroom units that may be rental-assisted or market-rate depending on the community. Amenities and hospitality services such as housekeeping, linen service, transportation and social and recreational activities may be included, provided for an additional charge, or may not be available at all. These communities do not provide assistance with activities of daily living or personal care.

Intermediate Care Facilities (ICF) are nursing facilities that are most appropriate for people who need 24 hour medical oversight in a structured setting. Most residents must share their room, but residents are allowed to bring personal items to encourage a more home-like atmosphere. Additionally, nursing facilities offer residents planned social, recreational and spiritual activities.
Memory Care or Dementia Communities offer or provide care for residents with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia in a home-like environment. These communities must receive an endorsement and are governed by additional regulations that are specifically intended to support individuals with dementia, including: a secure building that alerts staff if a resident has exited, a secure outdoor area that provides outdoor freedom safely, interior finishes that are non-glare and well lit, and visual contrasts between floors, walls and doorways. Alzheimer’s units must also have programs, which include: gross motor, self care, social, craft, sensory enhancement and outdoor activities.
Rehabilitation & Therapy is treatment for an injury, illness, or pain with the goal of restoring function, including nursing and therapy services. Rehab is ordered by a physician and services are provided by nurses and physical, occupational, and speech therapists. Examples include working with a physical therapist to help you walk and with an occupational therapist to help you get dressed.
Residential Care Facilities (RCF) provide housing and supportive services for six or more people who do not require 24 hour nursing care. Pricing can vary greatly depending on the level of care provided and the size and amenities of each apartment. Accommodations are typically in a home-like setting and may range from a shared bedroom with common bathroom, to private apartments with kitchenette and private bathroom. Monthly fees vary greatly based on unit amenities and care services. Many residential care facilities specialize in caring for individuals with Alzheimer’s or dementia.
Respite Care is short term relief for family caregivers to take a break from the caregiving responsibilities and allows for a healthier and better quality of life for both the caregiver and care receiver. Respite services include: companionship, personal care, recreational activities and security. Respite care can be provided as short stay or for a longer period that allows the family caregiver to go on vacation or a business trip. Longer duration respite care is generally found at select senior housing communities although some Companion services may provide this service in the home.
Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) is a State-licensed facility that provides a safe, therapeutic environment for individuals who require rehabilitative care. Skilled Nursing Facilities offer 24 hour skilled nursing care and medical services by licensed nurses and support professionals. This is the highest level of care that can be provided that is not a hospitalization. Additionally, nursing facilities offer residents planned social, recreational and spiritual activities.

Licensing requirements for assisted living facilities vary by state and can be known by as many as 26 different names including: residential care, board and care, congregate care, and personal care. A complete list of each state’s terminology and state regulations can be found at: http://aspe.hhs.gov/daltcp/reports/04alcom.htm
Choosing A Community
A good match between a community and a resident’s needs depends as much on the philosophy and services as it does on the quality of care.
The following suggestions can help you get started in your search for a safe and appropriate assisted living community:
• What are your future needs and how will the community meet those needs?
• Is the community close to family and friends? Are there any shopping centers or other businesses nearby (within walking distance)?
• Visit each community more than once, sometimes unannounced.
• Visit at meal times, sample the food, and observe the quality.
• Observe interactions among residents and staff and ask questions.
• Ask about social, recreational, and spiritual activities.
• Ask about the type and frequency of staff trainings.
• Review state licensing reports.
These steps should also be considered:
• Contact your state’s long-term care ombudsman to see if any complaints have been filed against the assisted living community you are interested in. In many states, the ombudsman checks on conditions at assisted living units and nursing homes.
• If the assisted living community is connected to a nursing home, ask for information about it, too. (Information on nursing homes can be found on the Medicare website at http://www.medicare.gov/nhcompare/home.asp).
It is a good idea to review The Substantiated Facility Abuse Complaints at https://apps.dhs.state.or.us/cf2/spd/facility_complaints/ This website contains Facility Adult Protective Services (APS) investigations that constitute abuse as determined by Corrective Action Coordinators.

Adult foster homes are inspected and licensed single family residences that offer care in a homelike setting with 5 or less residents. Adult foster care is often chosen by consumers because care is provided in a homelike setting and can be more affordable than other care facilities. Informal adult foster care has been a part of our society for years.
Some providers are able to provide more complex care because of their training and experience and/or help from visiting nurses. A caregiver may receive instruction from a registered nurse to perform a care task specific to a particular resident. Some providers may be able to meet your care needs if you are coming to the adult foster home directly from the hospital after surgery or you are recovering from a serious illness. Other adult foster home providers have special training to provide care for people with Alzheimer’s disease, brain injuries, AIDS, respiratory failure, or the need for Hospice services.
SOME THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND WHILE VISITING THE HOMES ARE:
Who provides care in the home: Does the owner lives in the home, or is there a Resident Manager who lives in the home and is the main caregiver?
What are the schedules and/or routines of the home?
What are the care needs of the other residents?
Would you feel comfortable living with the other residents and caregivers in the home?
How do residents interact with one another?
ADULT FOSTER HOME CLASSIFICATIONS
There are three classifications of adult foster home licenses in Oregon. The classifications are based on the experience and/or training of the provider. Each home has a license posted that indicates the classification of the home.
1. A licensee with a Class 1 license may only admit residents who need assistance in no more than four activities of daily living (ADLs).
2. A licensee with a Class 2 license may provide care for residents who require assistance in all activities of daily living, but require full assistance in no more than three activities of daily living.
3. A licensee with a Class 3 license may provide care for residents who require full assistance in four or more activities of daily living.
In each classification, the provider can only admit residents with a certain number of impairments. These impairments are defined according to six major activities of daily living (ADLs). These are eating/nutrition, dressing, personal hygiene, mobility, toileting and behavior management.
