A new project–Adult Care

John, Thank you for the informative article. Meeting the health care needs of seniors and disabled is a rewarding, but very challenging, profession. New Medicare and Affordable Care Act programs sadly make it even more difficult. For example, the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program blocks hospitalization more than once in 30 days for Medicare recipients.

great information .this provide good information about what a day program can provide persons with a dementia such as Alzheimer's and their care partner. The National Institute of Adult Day Care describes adult day care as a program of individualized services and therapeutic activities in a group setting for adults who are cognitively impaired, physically impaired, socially isolated, frail elderly, in need of assistance with activities of daily living and in need of supervision.

Of course, what a great site and informative posts, I will add backlink - bookmark this site? Regards, Reader

Our good Senators should see and READ this, particularly Senator NO.

I'm sorry to admit, but as a child we were sheltered from issues of the aging and were rarely put in positions where we six children were in contact with any sick or elderly people outside of our grandparents. It was for I believe the most part the elderly were spared (spared) us. But none the less, I have always had a fear of old people(kid talking) and now I'm 50. We look at old people and sometimes judge them as being in controll of their own demise, you know the smells and sights of drool and white or siler untidied hair. What a brat I,ve been. I have one mopre child at home and she already claims she doesn't desire to be around anyone in hospitals or funeral homes.
