“Where caring people make the difference!”
“Some people search a lifetime for their calling. I found my calling, my extended family and a home away from home at American Senior Communities.” –Ryan Levengood, Executive Director

When you walk into American Senior Communities, the difference is clear: there is a passion our people bring to their work that you simply won’t find in any other senior healthcare community.
When someone chooses to live in one of our communities, we become an extension of their family. We take the time to get to know each of our residents and their families on a personal level. Our communities are made up of individuals and with that in mind, we focus on serving individual needs.
Indiana-owned and operated American Senior Communities, proud to be the largest provider of senior healthcare in Indiana.

A Word from the President of the Council
on Senior Services By Suzi Jam� The Council on Senior Services (COSS) is a community council
of professionals who work for and volunteer for agencies and busi-nesses that serve senior citizens. The goal of COSS is to improve access to services for seniors in Allen County. This directory has been developed to educate senior citizens and professionals about the numerous services that exist.
Proceeds from the advertising sales in this directory pay for printing of the book and for grants to organizations that submit projects created for the health, education and/or welfare of se-niors in our community. Grants awarded in 2011 included Adam and Bruce Apartments, Community Transportation Network, Al-len County Council on Aging, Homebound Meals, A Day Away Adult Daycare, Allen County TRIAD, Aging & In-Home Services, The Volunteer Center @ RSVP, Turnstone Center for Children and Adults with Disabilities, Northeast Indiana Radio Reading Services, League for the Blind and Disabled, Long Term Care Ombudsman, In-Home Hair Care, Hope Alive, ResCare Adult Day Services and Health Visions.
Organizations interested in placing an ad in the 2013 directory may contact Jill Headrick via e-mail at [email protected].
Directories will be available for pickup at the Community Cen-ter, 233 W. Main St., Volunteer Center @ RSVP, 3401 Lake Ave., Suite 4, Aging and In-Home Services, 2927 Lake Ave, Kingston at Dupont, 1716 E. Dupont Rd., and Kingston Residence, 7515 Win-chester Rd. To request a copy to be mailed to you, call the Allen County Council on Aging at 426-0060. The directory is also avail-able on the COSS website at www.councilonseniorservices.org.
The information in this book has been compiled through the efforts of volunteers. The Council on Senior Services (COSS) makes every attempt to ensure that the information is complete and accurate.

KEY SERVICES
Anterior-Approach Hip Replacement The hip is replaced through a single incision with no detachment of muscle from the pelvis to the femur. This approach has facilitated shorter hospital stays and shorter recovery times.
Physical and Occupational Therapy Physical and occupational therapists work to help restore patients to the same quality of life they lived prior to their illness, accident or surgery. Physical therapists use exercise and physical activity to condition patients’ muscles to improve their activity level, while occupational therapists focus on functionality of the hands, arms and upper extremities and the activities of daily living.
Sports Medicine The Orthopedic Hospital has teamed up with Fort Wayne Orthopedics to create a sports medicine program that treats all athletes, professionals and weekend warriors with the same or next-day priority of care.
Spine Surgery Spine surgeries, including artificial disc procedures, spinal fusions and fracture repairs, are the second most common type of surgery performed at The Orthopedic Hospital. We also offer pain management treatments for back pain and participate in national spine research protocols to offer the latest in techniques and technologies.
Hand and Foot Surgery The Orthopedic Hospital specializes in surgically repairing hands damaged by conditions such as arthritis, lupus, tendonitis, genetic abnormalities and traumatic and workplace injuries. Ankle, heel, toe, forefoot and stress fractures, as well as broken ankles and bones, are all regularly treated at the facility.
Pain Management Patients living with back and/or leg pain caused by injuries or genetic conditions can be treated on an outpatient basis. Treatments take approximately 30 minutes, and a physician referral is required.

Veterans’ Benefits for Long Term CareThe VA provides home and community-based services to veterans. These medically necessary services include home care, hospice, respite care, assisted living, domiciliary care, geriatric assessments and nursing home care. The veteran must be enrolled in VA’s health care system. Some of these services may be offered to veterans who do not have service-connected disabilities but who may qualify because of low in-come or because they are receiving pension income from VA. Call the VA Northern Indiana Health Care System at 426-5431.
Aid and Attendance is an under used benefit. It is a special pension benefit for wartime veterans and their wives. Some who are not eligible for VA benefits because of income, may still be eligible for this benefit if they have large medical expenses. The benefit is for those receiving in-home care, inability to take care of bodily needs, or bedridden. They may also qualify because of mental injury or illness that requires regular assistance to protect them from the hazards in their daily environment. They may be living at home, in an assisted living facility, or a nursing facility. For additional information, call Allen County Veterans’ Services at 449-7861 or access the internet at www.va.gov.
Long Term CareLong term care is a variety of services that include medical and non-medical care to people who have a chronic illness or disability. It helps the individuals meet their health or personal needs. It often assists peo-ple with support services such as activities of daily living like dressing, bathing, and using the bathroom. These services can be provided in the home, in the community, in assisted livings, or in nursing facilities. Generally, Medicare does not pay for these long term care services, referred to as “custodial care.” Medicare pays only for medically neces-sary skilled nursing and therapies in the home and for skilled care in nursing facilities.

Medicaid and Long Term CareMedicaid is a combined State and Federal Government program that pays for certain health services and nursing home care for older people with low incomes and limited assets. It is an entitlement program which means that all who qualify for it will receive it. For information and to apply, call 1-800-403-0864 or access the internet at www.in.gov/fssa or www.ifcem.com.
Medicaid Waiver is the Medicaid program that pays for in-home long term care services. Income allowed in order to be eligible for this pro-gram is three times the amount allowed for the regular Medicaid pro-gram. This is not an entitlement program so there may be a wait
For over 46 years, the U.S. Administration on Aging (AoA) has pro-vided home and community-based services to millions of older persons through the programs funded under the Older Americans Act. President Lyndon Johnson on August 14, 1965, signed into law the Older Ameri-cans Act (OAA). The OAA set out specific objectives for the maintaining the dignity and welfare of older individuals and created the primary vehicle for organizing, coordinating and providing community-based services and opportunities for older Americans and their families.
The original legislation established authority for grants to States for com-munity planning and social services, research and development projects, and personnel training in the field of aging. The law also established the Administration on Aging (AoA) to administer the newly created grant programs and to serve as the Federal focal point on matters concerning older persons. The mission was later expanded to include those individu-als with disabilities.
Although older individuals and individuals with disabilities may receive services under many other Federal programs, today the OAA is consid-ered to be the major vehicle for the organization and delivery of social ad nutrition services to this group and their caregivers. It authorizes a aide array of service programs through a nation network of 50 states

Each year, AIHS completes an Area Plan with information on the needs and preferences of older individuals and persons with disabilities and their family caregivers in relation to a comprehensive, coordinated sys-tem for providing long-term care in home and community-based settings in AIHS’ nine county region. The AIHS Area Plan is part of the overall State Plan on Aging which is submitted to the Administration on Aging in accordance with provisions of the Older Americans Act.
Services under that plan include Meals on Wheels home-delivered meals programs, Senior Dining in congregate settings, transportation, adult day care, legal assistance, health promotion or chronic disease self-management programs, among others.
Nationally, information on services is available from the Eldercare Loca-tor, a public service of the U.S. Administration on Aging, at 1-800-677-1116, or from the National Department of Health and Human Services - www.longtermcare.org. Clearinghouse for Long-Term Care Information website developed by the U.S. - www.longtermcare.org.
Locally, access to information and resources on services you need now or in the future, and how to pay for services, is available through Ag-ing & In-Home Services of Northeast Indiana’s Aging and Disability Resource Center. Aging and Disability Resource Centers (ADRCs) were created by AoA, in partnership with Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS), to provide consumers and caregivers information on home and community-based long-term care services. ADRCs provide consumers information, options counseling, referral, assessment, educational and assistance in planning for the future needs. AoA is emphasizing the importance of integration of proven evidence-based health promotion

“Where caring people make the difference!”
“Some people search a lifetime for their calling. I found my calling, my extended family and a home away from home at American Senior Communities.” –Ryan Levengood, Executive Director

When you walk into American Senior Communities, the difference is clear: there is a passion our people bring to their work that you simply won’t find in any other senior healthcare community.
When someone chooses to live in one of our communities, we become an extension of their family. We take the time to get to know each of our residents and their families on a personal level. Our communities are made up of individuals and with that in mind, we focus on serving individual needs.
Indiana-owned and operated American Senior Communities, proud to be the largest provider of senior healthcare in Indiana.
