Workshops teach healthy living for life

By Christa Barrows and
Lorraine Wichtowski
Special to The LCN
My mom says Arthur goes
with her everywhere. It is
with her at night, when she
wakes in the morning, and
every step and movement
during the day.
Arthur is not a dog, cat or
even gentlemen friend. Ar-
thur is moms code word for
arthritis.
It is indeed a constant
companion although not a
welcome one. During time, it
has changed her life and de-
creased some of her activities.
I imagine we all know
someone like my mom, living
with chronic pain or a chron-
ic condition such as diabetes,
high blood pressure, heart
disease or even anxiety.
Often these conditions
compromise the quality of
daily life. There is the pain,
the limitations, and conse-
quently for some, poor emo-
tional health to deal with on
an everyday basis. If you or
a loved one fits this descrip-
tion, you may want to consid-
er a Living Healthy workshop.
Living Healthy workshops
are educational programs
designed to help people
manage life with chronic pain
or disease. They are based
on the Stanford Chronic
Disease Self-Management
Program (CDSMP). This
evidence-based, self-man-
agement education program
helps participants learn
self-management skills
needed to help deal with the
symptoms of their chronic
condition and with the life
role changes and emotions
experienced when living with
a chronic condition.
The emphasis of the work-
shops curriculum is to help
people manage common
problems such as fatigue;
communicate with friends,
family, and providers; deal
with anger and depression;
and design and maintain a
healthy eating and exercise
plan. In addition, partici-
pants learn disease related
decision-making and prob-
lem solving skills.
These interventions help
participants reduce pain,
depression, fear, and frustra-
tion; improve mobility and
exercise; increase energy;
and boost confidence in their
ability to manage their con-
dition. The most important
outcome is that people be-
come more confident and are
able to combine more active
lives with self-management
of their chronic health con-
dition.
From 2012 to now, more
than 7,300 people have par-
ticipated in CDSMP Living
Healthy workshops across
New York. Most of those peo-
ple live with multiple chronic
conditions including: arthri-
tis, diabetes, hypertension,
heart disease, lung disease,
depression and others.
Chronic disease self-man-
agement programs are being
implemented successfully in
senior centers, churches and
other community settings
across the country.
Subjects who took the
program, when compared to
those who did not, demon-
strated significant improve-
ments in exercise, cognitive
symptom management, and
communication with physi-
cians; self-reported general
health, health distress and
fatigue, disability, and social/
role activities limitations.
They also spent fewer days in
the hospital, and there was
also a trend toward fewer out-
patient visits and hospitaliza-
tions, according to Stanford.
edu.
Locally, Noyes Health of-
fers Living Healthy classes
in the fall and spring. Par-
ticipants learn from trained
volunteer leaders with health
conditions themselves. Each
person learns how to set his
or her own goals and makes a
step-by-step plan to improve
his or her own health and life!
The workshops meet for
2-1/2 hours once per week for
six weeks. Spring 2017 work-
shops will be at the Mount
Morris Nutrition Site on
Tuesdays starting April 4 for
six weeks from 1 to 3:30 p.m.
The Dansville library will host
classes on Wednesdays for six
weeks starting May 3 from 1 to
3:30 p.m.
Classes are free but spaces
are limited and registration
is required. If you would like

How to prepare a home for elderly residents
Special to The LCN
Upon reaching retirement
age, new retirees may face de-
cisions regarding their living
arrangements.
Some seniors may opt to
stay put, while others may
want to downsize their homes
to save money and relieve
themselves of the burdens of
maintaining larger homes.
But those are not the only
situations seniors find them-
selves in.
Some seniors realize they
can no longer care for them-
selves without assistance. In
such instances, seniors may
opt for assisted living facilities
or choose to move in with a
relative, such as a grown son
or daughter.
While assisted living facili-
ties are designed to meet the
needs of the elderly, young
men and women welcoming
seniors into their homes may
need to take on some home
improvement projects to en-
sure their homes are as safe as
possible for elderly residents.
USE AN EXTRA ROOM
Convert a room on the first
floor into a bedroom. While
this may not apply to all se-
niors, some men and women
struggle with stairs as they age,
and that can make it difficult
for them to fully participate in
a household.
Homeowners with an extra
room to spare can convert a
room on the first floor of their
homes into a bedroom so se-
niors wont have to climb up
and down stairs throughout
the day. That ease of accessi-
bility to the primary floor of
the house encourages seniors
to be active participants in a
household. If possible, choose
an area that is close to a first-
floor bathroom.
MAKE BATHROOMS SAFER
The National Institute on
Aging says that more than one
in three seniors older than age
65 fall each year, and 80 per-
cent of those falls take place in
the bathroom.
Slippery tile floors can make
it difficult for seniors to nav-
igate bathrooms safely, and
bathtubs and shower stalls
present additional challenges.
Install grab bars on bath-
room walls and next to toilets
to provide support. In ad-
dition, consider installing a
shower chair or bench and re-
movable shower nozzle in the
shower or tub so seniors can
sit down while they bathe and
rinse without having to stand
up on slippery surfaces.
Make sure any mats around
bathtubs and sinks are non-
skid to reduce the risk of falls
even further.
ADD A TELEPHONE LINE
Install an extra phone line
or two. While kids and adults
between the ages of 18 and 50
may never use the landlines in
their homes, many seniors still
rely on traditional telephones
as their primary means of
communicating with the out-
side world.
Install extra landlines in
your home, including in se-
niors bedrooms, so they can
more readily access the phone
should they fall and need to
call for emergency help.
Phones in seniors bed-
Senior Living
rooms may also provide some
additional privacy to seniors
who dont want to carry on
phone conversations in busy
areas of the home, such as the
kitchen or living room. Such
lines may also reduce feelings
of isolation.
STORAGE CONSIDERATIONS
Prioritize accessibility when
storing items. When storing
groceries, books, magazines,
or other items seniors are like-
ly to use, choose locations that
are accessible to seniors.
Avoid storing items on the
top shelf of pantries, bookcas-
es or entertainment centers, as
seniors with limited mobility
may not be able to reach them.
Many seniors move in with
their adult children to make
their golden years safer and
more enjoyable and manage-
able.
Such a change in living ar-
rangements may necessitate
some changes on the part of
homeowners so they can en-

There are some benefits to growing older

Special to The LCN
Many people are quick to
think of growing older in a
negative light. Although there
are some effects of aging one
may wish to avoid, people may
find the benefits of growing
older outweigh the negatives.
Seniors are a rapidly grow-
ing segment of the population.
and altruism can contribute to
happiness.
FINANCIAL PERKS
Seniors are entitled to dis-
counts on meals, museum
entry fees, movies and other
entertainment if theyre will-
ing to disclose their ages. Dis-
term memory and visual spa-
tial processing. Older control-
lers proved to be experts at
navigating, juggling multiple
aircrafts simultaneously and
avoiding collisions.
LESS STRESS
As people grow older, they
are able to differentiate needs
from wants and focus on more
important goals. This can alle-
viate worry over things that are
beyond ones control. Seniors
may realize how little the opin-
ions of others truly mean in the
larger picture, thereby feeling
less stress about what others
think of them.

In the United States, the Ad-
ministration on Aging states
the older population persons
65 years or older numbered
46.2 million in 2014, the latest
data available.
With people living longer,
its time to celebrate the perks
of getting older rather than
the drawbacks. Here are some
great benefits to growing old.
HIGHER SELF-ESTEEM
As the insecurities of youth
give way, older people have
less negativity and higher
self-esteem. A University of
Basel study of people ages 18
to 89 found that regardless
of demographic and social
status, the older one gets the
higher self-esteem climbs.
Qualities such as self-control

an array of venues if one
speaks up. Seniors also can en-
joy travel perks, with slashed
prices on resorts, plane tickets
and more. The U.S. National

62 and older lifetime passes to

How older adults can reduce their risk of falls
By Lorraine Wichtowski
Special to The LCN
The number of adults older
than 65 years old who die from
unintentional falls continues
to increase.
About 12 million older
adults about 1 in 3 fall each
year in the United States. More
than half of these falls occur in
the home. Every year, 2.5 mil-
lion older people are treated in
emergency rooms for fall inju-
ries including fractured arms,
wrists, legs and hips. About
250,000 older folks are hospi-
talized for hip fractures alone.
In addition, falls are the most
common cause of traumatic
brain injuries.
Falls are the leading cause of
injury in older adults but many
risk factors can be changed or
modified to reduce the risk for
injury.
RISK FACTORS
According to the Centers for
Disease Control and Preven-
tion, most falls are caused by a
combination of risk factors.
The factors include:
n Lower body weakness.
n Vitamin D deficiency.
n Difficulties with walking
or balance.
n Use of medicines, such
as tranquilizers, sedatives, or
antidepressants. Even some
over the counter medicines
can affect balance and how
steady you are on your feet.
n Vision problems.
n Foot pain or poor foot-
wear (high heels, floppy slip-
pers, and shoes with slick soles
should be avoided).
n Home hazards such as
broken or uneven steps, throw
rugs or clutter that can be
tripped over and no handrails
in the stairways or bathrooms.
Many falls can be prevent-
ed. Speaking with a physi-
cian, making your home safer,
and increasing strength and
balance can help reduce the
risk for a fall. The Mayo Clin-
ic, CDC and Harvard Medical
School recommend the fol-
lowing:
TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR
n Ask your healthcare pro-
vider to evaluate your risk for
falling.
n Ask your doctor and
pharmacist to review your
medications (prescription and
over the counter) to see if any
might make you sleepy or diz-
zy.
n Have your eyes
checked at least once a year
and update glasses as neces-
sary.
MAKE YOUR HOME SAFER
n Remove boxes, news-
papers, electrical cords and
phone cords from walkways.
n Move coffee tables,
magazine racks, baskets and
plant stands from high traffic
areas.
n Secure loose rugs with
double-faced tape, tacks or a
slip-resistant backing or sim-
ply remove all loose rugs from
the home.
n Repair loose, wooden
floors and carpet.
n Store clothing, dishes,
food and other necessities
within easy reach.
n Install railings on both
sides of stairways and grab
bars inside and outside of tubs
and showers as well as next to
the toilet.
n Place night lights in
bedroom, bathroom and hall-
ways.
n Place a lamp within
reach of the bed for middle of
the night needs.
n Turn on the lights be-
fore going up or down stairs.
n Store flashlights in
easy to find places in case of
power outages.

Behaviors that may help reduce risk for colon cancer
Special to The LCN
Colorectal cancer is a for-
midable foe. According to the
Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, colorectal
cancer is the second leading
cancer killer in the United
States.
Some risks for colorectal
cancer are beyond an individ-
uals control. For example, a
personal or family history of
polyps in the colon, rectum or
both, significantly increases
a persons risk of developing
colorectal cancer. Lynch syn-
drome, a condition caused by
gene mutations, causes polyps
to develop in the lining of the
colon, rectum or both. Since
Lynch syndrome is inherit-
ed, there is nothing men and
women can do to reduce their
risk of developing it.
Research into colorectal
cancer is ongoing, making it
difficult for doctors to say cer-
tain behaviors or approaches
reduce a persons risk of de-
veloping the disease. But there
are things individuals can do
that might help save them
from colorectal cancer.
GET SCREENED
The CDC notes that col-
orectal cancer usually begins
when polyps form in the colon
or rectum. Undetected, these
polyps may turn into cancer.
Screening can detect polyps
early so they are found before
they develop into cancer.
The U.S. Preventive Services
Task Force recommends col-
orectal cancer screening using
high-sensitivity fecal occult
blood testing, or FOBT; sig-
moidoscopy; or colonoscopy

for men and women between
the ages of 50 and 75.
EMBRACE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
While people who are phys-
ically active can still get col-
orectal cancer, those with sed-
entary lifestyles are at higher
risk of developing the disease
than those who are active.
MAINTAIN A HEALTHY WEIGHT
People who are overweight
or obese have greater inci-
dence rates of colorectal can-
cer than those who maintain
healthy weights. Men with a
high body mass index, or BMI,
seem to be most at risk of de-
veloping colorectal cancer.
LIMIT ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION
The CDC notes that some
studies have shown that limit-
ing alcohol consumption may
reduce a persons risk of devel-
oping colorectal cancer.
Colorectal cancer is a dev-
astating disease, but men and
women who embrace healthy
behaviors may be able to lower

Clark Meadows community offers a short stay program

Special to The LCN
When you need a little as-
sistance in recovering from
illness, surgery or an injury,
sometimes staying at home
is not an option. Thats why
Clark Meadows in Canan-
daigua offers a short stay
program.
The program, for stays of at
least seven days and no more
than six weeks, can serve as a
stepping stone to home. And
sometimes, Marketing & Sales
Associate Lynne Standish
said, people find they like the
state-licensed enriched living
community so much that they
want to move in for good.
Recently a respite resident
returned to her daughters
home. She asked her daughter
what activities were planned
for that afternoon! The family
called me back and we were
able to make Clark Mead-
ows the mothers long-term

Operated by UR Medicines
Thompson Health and located
on Peg Rayburn Drive, Clark
Meadows has 48 studio and
one-bedroom apartments
for those 55 and older. Each
apartment has a kitchenette
and a private bath/shower.
Short-stay residents are in
furnished apartments, with
linens and dishes provided.
Oftentimes a parent is
moving to the Canandaigua
area to be closer to family.
They utilize the furnished
respite apartment while they
wait for their own belongings
to arrive and then they move
into their own apartment,
Standish said. Its a win-win

Is downsizing right for you?

Special to The LCN
As men and women retire or approach retire-
ment age, many opt to downsize their homes.
Such a decision can save older adults sub-
stantial amounts of money while also liberat-
ing them from the hassle of maintaining large
homes they no longer need.
Downsizing to smaller homes or apartments
is a significant step that homeowners should
give ample consideration before making their
final decisions. Here are a handful of tips to
help determine if downsizing is the right move.
GET A GRIP ON THE REAL ESTATE MARKET
Downsizing is not solely about money, but
its important that homeowners consider the
real estate market before putting their homes
up for sale. Speak with a Realtor or financial ad-
visor about the state of the real estate market.
Downsizing can help homeowners save money
on utilities, taxes and mortgage payments, but
those savings may be negated if you sell your
house in a buyers market instead of a sellers
market. If you think the current market wont
get you the price you are hoping for, delay your
downsize until the market rebounds.
TAKE INVENTORY
Empty nesters often find that their homes
are still filled with their childrens possessions,
even long after those children have entered
adulthood and left home. If the storage in your
home is dominated by items that belong to your
children and not you, then downsizing might
be right for you. Tell your children you are
thinking of downsizing and invite them over to
Power Lift
pick through any items still in your home. Once
they have done so and taken what they want,
you can host a yard sale, ultimately donating or
discarding what you cannot sell. Once the items
are gone, you may realize moving into a smaller
place is the financially prudent decision.
EXAMINE YOUR OWN ITEMS
Your childrens items are likely not the only
items taking up space in your home. Take in-
ventory of your own possessions, making note
of items you can live without and those you
want to keep. If the list of items you can live
without is extensive, then you probably wont
have a problem moving into a smaller home.
If you arent quite ready to say goodbye to ma-
ny of your possessions, then you might benefit
from staying put for a little while longer.

Stay young at heart (and in body and mind)

Family Features
When joints ache and you
dont move as fast as you used
to, it may seem that growing
old is anything but graceful.
While you cant stop the hands
of time, you can keep your
physical and mental well-be-
ing in tip-top shape for years to
come.
Even if youve spent a life-
time practicing healthy habits,
your senior years are no time
to allow those practices to fall
to the wayside. On the oth-
er hand, if you put off quality
self-care for later in life, rely
on your experience and ma-
turity to know that taking care
of yourself is as important as,
well, life itself.
EAT BALANCED MEALS
Its never too late to be-
gin paying more attention to
what you eat. Seniors may be
prone to poor eating habits
for the sake of convenience or
because its not as much fun
cooking for one or two when
you once had a full house to
feed. Actually, as you age,
keeping your weight in check
and continuing to fuel your
body with essential nutrients
is more important than ever.
As you age, keeping your weight in check and continuing to fuel your body with essential nutrients
is more important than ever.
KEEP MOVING
Its true that aches and
pains may keep you from be-
ing as spry as you once were,
but limiting your movement
can actually create a snow-
ball effect that results in even
less mobility over time. Mus-
cles that arent used regularly
can weaken and restrict your
movement even more, so work
with your physician to deter-
mine an appropriate amount
of activity for your condition.
MIND YOUR MIND
When youre working, or
while youre tending to the
needs of a growing family, you
rely on your brain to power
through, probably without
even thinking about it. Yet over
time, most people experience
some degree of cognitive dete-
rioration, partially from basic
biology and partially from lack
of exercising that vital mus-
cle. Keep your mind sharp by
communicating regularly with
family and friends and seek out
activities that put your brain to
use, such as crossword puzzles
or word games.
BE A SOCIAL BUTTERFLY
A common lament of mid-
dle-age is the lack of time to
nurture friendships. With an
empty nest and an open cal-
endar, theres no time like the
present to strengthen long-
term bonds or seek out new
companions who share life
experiences and a desire to age
with grace. Close connections
with friends and family mem-
bers will not only boost your
emotional well-being, they
can ensure there are others
watching out for you on a reg-
ular basis.
DO AS YOURE TOLD
When youre younger, skip-
ping an annual checkup here
and there seems like no big
deal. As you age, those assess-
ments serve an important role
in identifying potential issues
and introducing treatments
before big problems arise.
Honor your regular medical
appointments and heed the
advice youre given including
taking any medicines as pre-
scribed.

How to avoid growing
bored in retirement
When the day to hang up the
briefcase and donate all those
business suits arrives, some
retirees wonder what to do
next; those who decide to play
it by ear may find themselves
battling boredom.
Jobs keep men and women
busy and provide a sense of
purpose in their lives, so its
understandable that retirees
feel bored once those jobs are
no longer a part of their lives.
But you just need to find
something to avoid succumb-
ing to retirement boredom.
n Work part-time. Though
it might seem odd to start
working after you retire, a part-
time job can provide the type
of structure you have grown
accustomed to without all of
the responsibility that comes
with a full-time career. Part-
time jobs can range from con-
sulting work that makes use of
your professional experience
to something entirely different
like landscape maintenance at
a nearby golf course.
n Embrace a new hobby.
Working professionals often
say they wish they had time
to pursue a hobby. Whether
its perfecting your golf game,
writing that novel, learning
to cook like a gourmet chef or
whatever else you might have
always wanted to do, retire-
ment is a great time to do it.
n Get in shape. If retire-
ment boredom has started to
negatively affect your mood,
one way to conquer your bore-
dom and improve your mood
at the same time is to start ex-
ercising. Exercise is a natural
mood enhancer. When the
body exercises, it releases en-
dorphins,which trigger pos-
itive feelings in the body. In
addition, regular exercise has
been shown to reduce stress,
boost self-esteem and im-
prove sleep.
n Volunteer. Volunteers

Diet, exercise needs change with your age
By Sharon Audino
Special to The LCN
What can I do to lower my
nutrition risk?
We ask seniors questions
which help us to determine if
you have a risk to your nutri-
tional health. If you answer
yes to any of these questions,
here are some solutions to
help you improve your overall
nutrition.
Here are answers to some
frequently asked questions:
QUESTION: I have an ill-
ness that changes what I eat:
ANSWER: Sometimes
when sick, it is hard for us to
eat complete meals; or having
a condition like diabetes or
high blood pressure requires
that we watch what we eat. If
you are not able to eat large
meals, sometimes small
frequent snacks will help im-
prove your intake. For special
diets, if you have questions
about what you should eat,
you can contact a registered
dietitian at the Office for the
Aging (OFA) for advice on how
to improve your intake.
Q: I eat fewer than 2 meals
per day:
A: Sometimes people dont
like to take the time to prepare
a meal for themselves. Try
having foods at home that are
easy to prepare.
Simple meals can be made
in slow cookers or toaster
ovens and then portioned out
and frozen for meals that can
be thawed and easily re- heat-
ed.
Quick breakfast meals can
include nut butters, yogurt,
cottage cheese and fruits.
Q: I eat few fruits vegeta-
bles and milk products:
A: Sometimes it is easier to
eat fruits and vegetables if they
are pre-portioned and ready
to eat.
Try purchasing snack
portions of fruit cups and
applesauce. Dried fruits are
also a great option. Try precut
vegetables such as carrots and
celery. Dairy products such as
cheese, yogurt, cottage cheese
and frozen yogurts can help to
improve your intake.
Q: I drink 3 or more alco-
The bodys nutritional and fitness needs change as a person ages.
holic beverages per day:
A: Alcohol contains calories
and sometimes will take the
place of healthy foods in the
diet.
If you can cut back on your
own, do so. If you need help,
ask your case worker for re-
sources in the community to
help.
Q: I dont have enough
money to buy the food I need:
A: Consider attending a
congregate mealsite near
your home (see the list of local
sites in the Senior Resources
Guide include in this section),
or if you are not able to leave
your home, consider home
delivered meals which are
available to you for only a sug-
gested contribution. If you are
income eligible, consider ap-
plying for SNAP (formerly food
stamp) benefits to stretch your
food dollars.
Food Pantries in your area
can help with food needs as
well. (A list of local food pan-
tries is also available in the
Senior Resources Guide.)
Q: I eat alone most of the
time:
A: The congregate mealsites
are a great place to socialize.
If you are unable to leave your
home, try setting the table for
your meal.
Make your meal an occa-
sion. Invite a friend over to
eat with you; it will be good for
both of you!
Q: I take 3 or more pre-
scription drugs a day:
A: We usually do not have a
choice in the medications the
doctor tells us to take. Your
pharmacist will advise you if
Senior Living
you need to take your med-
ications with food or on an
empty stomach. If you have a
poor appetite due to the pills
you take, the OFA dietitian can
help to give you ideas to im-
prove your intake
Q: Without wanting to, I
have lost or gained 10 pounds
in the last 6 months:
A: Changing weight, both
up and down, can increase
your nutrition risk. If you
have been ill, sometimes a
decreased appetite will result.
Sometimes if you are bored,
you eat too much. The con-
gregate and home delivered
meals though the Office for
the Aging can not only provide
you with a balanced meal,
meeting one-third of your nu-
tritional needs, but can show
you proper portion sizes to
help you in controlling your
weight.
Q: I am not always able to
shop, cook or feed myself:
A: Come and have lunch
with us at a mealsite or consid-
er home delivered meals if you
are eligible.
While many frozen meals
are very high in sodium, there
are some that are healthier.
When you shop, check labels
to choose those which are low-
er in sodium.
