OBJECTIVES Disabled, homebound individuals tend to suffer both chronic pain and depression; however, low-income, homebound older adults have been underexposed in pain and depression research. We examined the extent of pain frequency, intensity, and interference; the relationship between pain and depressive symptoms; and prescription analgesic use and its association with use of antidepressant and anxiolytic medications among these older adults. METHOD The data came from the baseline assessment of 215 homebound individuals aged 50+ who were referred to a clinical trial of depression treatment. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were used to examine the research questions. RESULTS Almost 87% (n = 186) of the participants reported having had chronic pain in the preceding three months. Of the pain reporters, the mean frequency, intensity, and interference of pain were 8.65 ± 2.05, 7.71 ± 2.10, and 7.80 ± 2.82, respectively, on a 1-10 scale, and 61% were taking a prescription analgesic. Analgesic

Food sources of vitamin D become increasingly important as the ability of older adults to activate vitamin D produced from sun exposure declines. Household food supplies of homebound older adults receiving home-delivered meals contained modest amounts of vitamin D with key sources being milk, fish and shellfish, eggs and egg substitutes, ready-to-eat cereals, and spreads. To improve access to this nutrient, an economical adjunct to home-delivered meals programs is providing an additional meal consisting of vitamin D-fortified milk and ready-to-eat cereal, pouches of tuna or salmon and vitamin D-fortified juice, and/or vitamin D supplements. Improving vitamin D status could help ameliorate cognitive decline, falls, and skeletal strength and decrease institutionalization of older adults and health care costs.

On April 12, FEMA released a policy that authorized purchase and distribution of food as an Emergency Protective Measure. Under that policy, applicants could receive funding for an initial 30-day period and could request one 30-day extension. Depending on the time period for applicants requested reimbursement, eligibility under this policy for the initial 60 days could end as soon as May 13, 2020.. This policy was intended to allow FEMA to meet immediate needs, until other federal programs/funding became available. However, for a variety of reasons, including scale of need, it is likely that other federal programs will not be able to meet the needs of individuals coping with COVID-related food insecurity within the initial timeframe.. Therefore, Public Assistance has clarified that extensions beyond the initial 60 days are allowable (in increments of 30 days or fewer per extension) for the duration of the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency, if necessary. The State, local, tribal, and territorial ...

Dr. Lee has been making house calls to frail homebound elders since 1995. She is passionate about providing culturally sensitive home-based geriatrics and palliative care. As a daughter and granddaughter of Chinese immigrants, she personally encountered challenges of seeking medical care for her late maternal grandmother. Dr. Lee is inspired to improve health care for under-served communities, especially the chronically ill and older monolingual immigrant Americans. Her goal is to provide personalized and culturally sensitive care in the home setting to those who who have limited access to medical care, thus reducing the need for frequent hospitalizations and/or nursing home placement.. Dr. Lee began practicing house calls at St. Vincent Hospitals Chelsea-Village Program from 1999 to 2010, primarily serving the Chinese and Latino American homebound elders of Manhattans Chinatown and the Lower East Side. After St. Vincent Hospitals closure, she continued to serve these communities under The ...

House calls are more costly up front than typical primary care office visits, but a Boston program is one of 16 in the country selected by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to test whether they can save money over the long run while improving health. Advocates hope the pilot program will persuade more doctors to begin seeing patients at home.

This is a service to our parishioners who are homebound; those who are no longer able to physically come to church, usually due to illness or advanced age, to fully participate in the social and sacramental life of the community. The homebound are served by regular visits, usually for an hour and on a weekly basis, by trained pastoral care workers, for the purpose of reinforcing the persons self-appreciation and sense of belonging to the church and keeping the homebound connected to Our Lady of Mount Carmel parish community.. Each visit consists of two essential parts: first, a time of personal interaction, when the pastoral visitor listens actively to the person visited; and second, a time of prayer, usually centered on the serving of Holy Communion. You are asked to refer a friend, a relative, or anyone in the parish who may benefit from this service of regular pastoral visits to the Pastoral Home Care Ministry team, through the pastor, the parish office or the ministry coordinator. As this ...

Petitioner (the district) appeals from the decision of an impartial hearing officer which found that it failed to offer an appropriate educational program to respondents (the parents) son and ordered the district to reimburse the parents for 90 percent of the costs of their sons homebound instruction program provided by the Smith School (Smith) for the 2007-08 school year. The parents cross-appeal from that portion of the impartial hearing officers decision which found that based upon equitable considerations, the parents were not entitled to full reimbursement for the costs of their sons homebound instruction program for the 2007-08 school year. The appeal must be sustained. The cross-appeal must be dismissed..

In determining whether the patient has the general ability to leave home and leaves home only infrequently or for periods of short duration, it is necessary (as is the case in determining whether skilled nursing services are intermittent) to look at the patients condition over a period of time rather than for short periods within the home health stay.. For example, a patient may leave the home (under the conditions described above, with a taxing effort) more frequently during a short period when, for example, the presence of visiting relatives provides a unique opportunity for such absences, than normally the case. So long as the patients OVERALL condition and experience is such that he or she meets these qualifications, he or she should be considered confined to home.. ...

Mayer Meals on Wheels is gearing up for its big annual March for Meals on Saturday, March 20, to help a program that is a lifeline to homebound and elders in the Highway 69 corridor from Dewey-Humboldt to Cordes Lakes.. The organization serves about 1,500 meals each month, and delivers more than 1,000 of those meals to homebound people. Often, the volunteer who delivers the meal is the only person the recipient sees each day. Mayer MOW has improved its service this past year, replacing a five-day program of frozen meals in the Cordes Lakes area with daily hot meals.. Linda Leon of Cordes Lakes suffers from Multiple Sclerosis, and she shares her home with her elderly adopted dad. Both receive Meals on Wheels. It means I eat and have human contact, Leon said.

This is our journey with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), also known as Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS). Jessica is 17 years old and before January 2008 she was a normal active teenager on the school dance team. In June of that year, she was diagnosed with CFS, after a sudden onset beginning with Epstein Barr Virus mono on January 6, 2008. She is now being treated by a doctor in Dallas. Her primary symptoms include sore throats, headaches, extreme fatigue, lack of focus, and short-term memory difficulties. Her symptoms and the severity of them vary. After missing 45 (partial or whole) days of school in the spring of 2008, she finished out the 9th grade with a homebound teacher. She was completely homebound to start the 10th grade, going 1/2 day the next semester, and then back to full time for the 11th grade. The doctor said it is not cureable, but it is controllable. He did give hope of recovery since she is a child. She has her good days and her bad days - thankfully ...

This week is National Malnutrition Week and we are turning our attention to our frail homebound seniors. Today, the service is as vital and valid as ever. It enables the vulnerable and elderly to live independently in their own homes for longer, keeping them nourished and hydrated with a nutritious daily meal (in many cases the only one they will have each day), and providing an essential preventative service that reduces costly malnutrition-related admissions to hospital.. It is, however, so much more than just a meal. It is, for many, a social life line. The delivery of a meal brings regular human contact that eases the devastating isolation and loneliness many elderly endure. It also provides much-needed wellbeing and safety checks, crucial for those that may not see anyone else during the day. Your support is essential for Contra Costas aging population.. ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - A study of associations between daily-social activity of elderly people living at home and symptoms of forgetfulness. Screening for dementia risk. AU - Teraoka, Sawa. AU - Konishi, Michiko. AU - Kamata, Keiko. PY - 2005/10. Y1 - 2005/10. N2 - PURPOSE: Functional decrease in brain activity as a factor inducing dementia is due not only to aging but also to decrease in social exchange, loss of something to live for, and decrease in physical activity with indoor confinement. It might therefore be possible to use these parameters to screen for risk of dementia in community care programs. In the present study we evaluated the association between decreased daily-social activity and symptoms of forgetfulness. METHODS: The subjects were 6,486 people aged , or = 65 years living in 3 municipalities in Yamanashi Prefecture. A survey table concerning daily-social activity and symptoms of forgetfulness was produced, and a whole-sample survey was performed by mail. Cluster analysis of items ...

Home health care is the fastest-growing expense in the Medicare program because of the aging population, the increasing prevalence of chronic disease and increasing hospital costs. Patients and families are choosing the option of home care more frequently. Medicares regulations are often considered the standard of care for all home health agency interactions, even when a patient does not have Medicare insurance. These regulations require patients who receive home health care services to be under the care of a physician and to be homebound. The patient must have a documented need for skilled nursing care or physical, occupational or speech therapy. The care must be part time (28 hours or less per week, eight hours or less per day) and occur at least every 60 days except in special cases. A detailed referral and specific care plan maximize the care to the patient and the reimbursement received by the physician.

Importantly, although the IOM vitamin D recommendations may be adequate for most average risk seniors, they will not likely cover the needs of high risk seniors. These include obese individuals, those with osteoporosis, those with limited sun exposure (institutionalized, homebound), those experiencing malabsorption, those residing in regions known to be at high risk for vitamin D deficiency such as the Middle East and South Asia, and immigrants from such regions living in Europe. To ensure that vitamin D need is met in high-risk elders, IOF recommends measuring their 25OHD level, supplementing with the amount estimated to bring their level up to 75nmol/L, then remeasuring to verify that the individual is vitamin D replete ...

As the population of Hawthorne ages, James said he expects more seniors to become homebound, increasing the demand for Meals on Wheels.. Were seeing the Baby Boomers become seniors, James said. For the first few years even though they were technically seniors, they were still working, so they didnt really need the services yet.

Protecting vulnerable populations during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is a priority. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has indicated that people 65 years and older are at a higher risk for severe illness. Unfortunately, with social distancing in place, it can be challenging to determine the well-being at-risk individuals.. During the pandemic, many at-risk members of the community are homebound and feeling isolated. They may be anxious and uncertain about how they will get their medications, meals, and other necessary services. As a result, communities are turning to volunteers and asking them to check the wellness (for example, in good health, have food and medicines they need, etc.) of vulnerable individuals throughout their community.

Hello! I was wondering if you can help me with something. I have been reading about the mineral depletion from psychiatric meds. I am still mostly homebound and cannot handle any stimulation. I have been off all meds for 3 years now. I was on a benzodiazepine and antidepressant for 15 years. They added lamotrigine. They told me I had treatment resistant depression. They told me I had GAD. When I initially went to the doctor I was dizzy. That was my only symptom but it was 1998 and I was a 21 year old female and had an older male doctor who I guess thought all women were neurotic. Anyway, I have been disabled from the medications for 5 years. I had 32 treatments of transcranial magnetic stimulation. I had a slew of incorrect diagnoses. And in the end, I now know that all of the doctors and specialists I saw were wrong. I had damage caused by the medications. Had I not found the Ashton manual and a nurse practioner willing to try the taper schedule, I would have taken my life. I cannot drive. I ...

I have a horrible secret to disclose. Im jealous. Im jealous of other people who are sick with the same things as me and can leave the house and even drive, but complain that their pain is worse. It makes it worse when those people insinuate that I must not try very hard if Im homebound with pain, or suggest that really its mental. Id expect this least of all from an EDSer. Im jealous of people with good insurance, because I know with good insurance, instead of state Medicaid, Id be healthier than I am, and could see good doctors. I could even get braces made for me, rather than having to buy them on Amazon or at Wal-Mart. Im nearly jealous of people with my disorder who can walk, drive, work, or go to school...and I hate that. I hate being jealous, and Im usually not a jealous person. Some EDSers can even climb stairs, something I havent been able to do for years. I havent been able to drive for years either. It pisses me off more than I can say when people say well I do it because ...

Hope Vet was founded by Dr. Kristine Young, a veterinarian, and Juliet Sternberg, a social worker.

Moksha has experienced breathing difficulties related to allergies and asthma since childhood. In her early 30s, she was diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), mainly bronchiectasis, but doctors dont know why she developed the condition. Testing has also shown that she suffers from other lung disorders including evidence of fibrosis and sarcoidosis. A double-lung transplant is essential to her survival. Her case is especially interesting, as doctors and friends say she is the healthiest looking sick person theyve ever met.. Despite her health challenges, Moksha never considered herself truly ill until doctors told her she only had 12-18 months to live-that was more than two years ago. Although she used to love horseback riding, hiking, golf and visiting with her friends, her activities are now limited because she is homebound 90 percent of the time.. One of her greatest loves is ballroom dancing, and her husband, Peter, graciously wears her oxygen machine on his back so ...

I Got and the Girl and she needs Something For the Pain but no amount of Novocaine will help. I know its harsh but This Aint a Love Song and I didnt see a Diamond Ring. She smoked her Last Cigarette, Burning for Love in a Blaze of Glory crying I dont want to Fall to the Fire....and so on ...

House calls provide a unique perspective on patients environment and health problems. The demand for house calls is expected to increase considerably in future decades as the U.S. population ages. Although study results have been inconsistent, house calls involving multidisciplinary teams may reduce hospital readmissions and long-term care facility stays. Common indications for house calls are management of acute or chronic illnesses, and palliative care. Medicare beneficiaries must meet specific criteria to be eligible for home health services. The INHOMESSS mnemonic provides a checklist for components of a comprehensive house call. In addition to performing a clinical assessment, house calls may involve observing the patient performing daily activities, reconciling medication discrepancies, and evaluating home safety. House calls can be integrated into practice with careful planning, including clustering house calls by geographic location and coordinating visits with other health care professionals
