Wellness services for seniors sets TouchStone apart from other home health providers. We offer educational lectures on topics for seniors and their families on topics unique to the ever-changing health care, legal and medical issues seniors face. Our “BE AGELESS” series speakers are experts in their fields and speak to groups at senior centers, residential facilities, assisted living facilities and memory care centers. Below are some of the informative topics we have included in our “BE AGELESS” series:

Physical Health: Age-related medical ailments and other physical conditions can obviously have major impacts on senior health. News, information, and relevant guidance in this area are often useful for helping older adults prevent or minimize those impacts and extend their vitality.

Exercise: Staying in shape is often a big part of maintaining good elder health. Even moderate amounts of regular physical activity can help stave off disease and improve a person’s overall well-being. That’s why exercise and recreation are essential health topics for seniors.

Mental Well-Being: Our inner thoughts and emotional lives play a bigger role in our actions and outcomes than we often realize. That’s why mental wellness is one of today’s most important senior health issues. Everyone, regardless of age, can benefit from a better understanding of it.

Social Vitality: Friends, family, and even casual acquaintances all contribute to a person’s sense of connection to the world. Our relationships and social interactions give us purpose and meaning. As a result, they also play big roles in fostering good senior health and wellness.

Seniors’ Nutrition: Your food choices can have big impacts on your well-being. For instance, healthy eating habits can improve your energy levels, boost your immune system, and make you feel great inside and out. For some older adults, they can even help restore feelings of youthfulness.

Power of Attorney: As we age, some of us eventually lose the ability to handle our own affairs. That’s why you’re smart to find out how to get power of attorney (POA) for a parent who is sick, disabled, or experiencing mental decline. But even if your parent is in good health right now, it’s wise to plan for potential challenges. You simply never know when an injury or illness may take away your mom or dad’s capacity to manage finances or make important decisions about medical care. In fact, the best time to start considering power of attorney is before a parent requires any caregiving.

Long Term Care Insurance: Long-term care (LTC) insurance is a type of financial product that can help you cover the costs of home care services or an extended stay in a nursing home, assisted living residence, memory care facility, or hospice. It provides a way to ensure that you and your family will be able to afford your care if you eventually need assistance with two or more activities of daily living. When you purchase an LTC policy from an insurance company, you pay a certain amount of money (i.e., a premium) each month in exchange for a guarantee that your future care costs will be covered in accordance with the specific terms of your agreement.

Essential Oils: As we age, we might lose our sense of smell. But aromatherapy is not dependent on our sense of smell. Molecules still travel through the nasal passage to the limbic system, and the results are the same whether one can smell the oil. The limbic system supports a variety of functions, including emotion, behavior, motivation, long-term memory, and olfaction.

Behavior Difficulties in the Elderly: Caregivers of aging family members often must deal with increasingly unusual, unruly, and embarrassing behavior from an aging family member or care recipient. These behaviors can range from the mild, like refusing to bathe, to personality changes, temper tantrums, and hallucinations. Sometimes, the acting out is an extension of the way the person has always acted. Sometimes though, the behaviors indicate a serious new health issue like depression, a urinary tract infection (UTI), or dementia.
