Come Away - PG-13
September 14, 2021
Two showings: at 9:00 am and 12:15 pm in the
Merrimac Room. At this time, no refreshments
will be served.
In this imaginative origin story of two of the most
beloved characters in literature – Peter Pan and
Alice in Wonderland - eight-year-old Alice, her
mischievous brother Peter, and their brilliant older
sibling David let their imaginations run wild one
blissful summer in the English countryside. En-
couraged by their parents, the kids' make-believe
tea parties, sword fights and pirate ship adventures
come to an abrupt end when tragedy strikes. Peter,
eager to prove himself a hero to his grief-stricken
and financially-struggling parents, journeys with
Alice to London, where they try to sell a treasured
heirloom to the sinister pawnshop owner. Return-
ing home, Alice seeks temporary refuge in a won-
drous rabbit hole while Peter permanently escapes
reality by entering a magical realm as leader of the
"Lost Boys." Starring Angelina Jolie, Derek Jacobi,
David Oyelowo, and Michael Caine.

Tips and Techniques for Managing Pain
What can we do to help manage pain? Prescription medication op-
tions can be effective, but they also carry risks and the potential
for side effects. Before we look to steroids, opiates, nerve blocks
and other medicines and procedures, what can we do to help reduce and manage
pain issues at home? Here are a few suggestions. Be aware that pain can increase
blood glucose levels, so starting pain management can result in low blood glucose, or
hypoglycemia. Work with your healthcare team to have a plan in place.
• Avoid injury. Maintain a healthy weight, since carrying extra weight increases the
risk of joint and back injury and pain. Also start a stretching routine. Maintain-
ing flexibility reduces strain on joints and nerve pressure, so stretch daily. Be
sure to stretch both before and after exercise to avoid muscle and joint injuries.
• Consider warm and cold therapy. Talk to your doctor about the use of these to
relieve pain, particularly muscle pain. These therapies can reduce inflammation,
improve circulation, reduce swelling and increase comfort.
• Try physical therapy. Physical therapy can help you increase range of motion
and flexibility. Your therapist can give you exercises to strengthen muscles and
reduce the burden on painful joints. They can even help you find patterns of
misuse that have been leading to your pain.
• Get moving to stay moving. It may hurt to get moving at first, but the more we
move, the less it will hurt. As we move, circulation increases, helping muscles
to receive oxygen and nutrients and heal better, reducing fluid in joints that
causes painful stiffness, and allowing muscles to strengthen and stabilize injured
areas. Work with your doctor on a plan to manage the initial pain. Remember
stretching is a great place to start!
Research Study at UAH by Dr. Lenora Smith
At the College of Nursing at UAH, a research study is being conducted in which the
investigators are trying to show a relationship between changes in memory and the
use of a mobile app that includes both physical exercise and brain training games.
The physical exercises are exercises that are done while seated in a chair and were
chosen because they increase heart rate. In this study, participants wear watches
that monitor their heart rate while playing the app on a tablet; this is to see if the
exercises are increasing heart rate enough to get oxygen flowing to the brain to im-
prove cognition. Participants are screened prior to the study to make sure they have
no blood pressure or heart issues that would prevent them from doing the exercises.
The exercises and brain training games take about 45 minutes to an hour to complete
and at the end of play, the investigators ask a few questions about how participants
felt about the app, to obtain their opinions and/or suggestions about the app. This
work is being completed under the supervision of a nurse faculty member, Dr. Lenora
Smith and has been funded by the American Nurses Foundation. The study must
be completed by June of 2022 or the grant is lost, so we are asking for anyone over
the age of 65 who might be interested in this study to contact Dr. Smith at lenora.
smith@uah.edu or 256-824-2425 and leave your contact information. This is not
a solicitation for recruitment of participants; this is only to obtain any interest in the
study to determine if the Senior Center is a good study location.

Medicare Open Enrollment is Just around the Corner
Last year, the TARCOG State Health Insurance Program (SHIP) provided
over 2400 seniors education and information regarding their Medicare
benefits. This year from October 15 to December 7, Medicare beneficiaries
have an opportunity, once again to review their Medicare Part D prescrip-
tion drug plan or Medicare Advantage Plan and make changes if necessary.
For 2022, there are over 32 Part D plans and 23 Medicare Advantage plans.
We anticipate changes will include higher premiums, higher deductibles,
and new formularies for the drug plans.
There is help understanding your options available through TARCOG'S State Health Insurance
Assistance Program (SHIP). SHIP is a free health benefits counseling service for Medicare
beneficiaries and their families or caregivers. SHIP is an independent program funded by
Federal agencies and is not affiliated with the insurance industry and is the only confidential,
one-on-one Medicare beneficiary counseling service in Alabama. The SHIP Program can help
you understand your Medicare benefits.
Alabama SHIP provides education and information concerning:
• Medicare (Parts A and B)
• Medicare Advantage Plans
• Medicare Prescription Drug Plans (Medicare Part D)
• Medicare Supplemental Insurance (Medigap)
The SHIP couselors can provide a comparison of the Medicare Advantage plans that are avail-
able in our area and do a comparison of drug plans that are specific for each individual and
in many instances savings will result. Medicare beneficiaries are encouraged to contact the
SHIP department at 256-830-0818 for assistance.
Checking your plan could save you money in 2022; but remember, you only have until De-
cember 2021 to make any changes.

MEALS ON WHEELS
Huntsville-Madison County Senior Center
Meals on Wheels is a service designed to provide nutritious meals for qualifying seniors,
Monday through Friday at lunchtime. Our program is located within the Huntsville-
Madison County Senior Center and serves clients within the Huntsville city limits.
We depend solely on volunteers to deliver the meals.
To receive meals, one must be age 60 or over, unable to
cook for oneself due to a health problem, and have no one
living with them to cook for them and no caregiver cooking
for them. The recipient must be primarily homebound
and living in Huntsville. There is no income qualification.
We ask our volunteers to deliver for us once a month, at
lunchtime. We provide food packed and ready to go, as
well as directions to each location. Delivery takes 1 to 1 ½ hours. Volunteers pro-
vide their own transportation and a smile! We also depend on kitchen volunteers,
who help us once a week between 8am and 11am. No cooking is required, as food is
delivered to us in bulk each morning by our supplier.
We rely heavily on fundraisers and donations to fi-
nance this program. Donations come from churches,
individuals, civic organizations, and companies. While
TARCOG provides the meals, we must raise money to
cover building costs, staff costs, and supplies. Any
amount is appreciated!
If you would like to learn more about receiving meals,
volunteering, or donating, please call us at 256-382-
0920, or email us at mow.cmgr@seniorview.com.
NEW MEALS ON WHEELS CASE MANAGER!
We now have a bi-lingual Case Manager (Spanish/English), Mrs. Debbie Bones. Debbie
was born and raised in Puerto Rico. She graduated from the Interamerican University of
Puerto Rico in 2010 with a Bachelor of Natural Science Concentration on Biology. Deb-
bie moved to the US with her husband Hector, an Army Veteran, and their 2 daughters
in 2013. They have lived in the Huntsville/Madison area for the past 5 years, where they
welcomed their son. Debbie has 5+ years of customer service experience and has a
passion for helping others. In addition to her qualifications and experience, she is fluent
in English and Spanish. We encourage you to call her if you need information about our
services. Her number is 256-513-8321.
Huntsville-Madison County Senior Center programs and services are funded
in part by a grant from Alabama's Department of Senior Services through
TARCOG's Agency on Aging.

Your Discharge Planning Checklist:
For patients and their caregivers preparing to leave a hospital, nursing home, or other
care setting, use this handy checklist.
Ask Questions
Ask where you’ll get care after you’re discharged. Do you have options like home health
care? Tell the staff what you prefer. If a caregiver will be helping you after discharge,
write down their name and phone number.
Your Health
Ask the staff about your health condition and what you can do to get better. Ask
about problems to watch for and what to do about them. Write down a name and phone
number of whom to call if you have problems. Write down your prescription drugs,
over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Tell the staff what drugs,
vitamins, or supplements you took before you were admitted. Ask if you should still
take these after you leave. Write down a name and phone number of a person to call
if you have questions.
Recovery and Support
Ask if you’ll need medical equipment (like a walker). Who will arrange for this? Write
down a name and phone number of a person you can call if you have questions about
equipment. Ask if you’re ready to do the activities below. Circle the ones you need
help with, and tell the staff:
• Bathing, dressing, using the bathroom, climbing stairs
• Cooking, food shopping, house cleaning, paying bills
• Getting to doctors’ appointments, picking up prescription drugs
Have support in place that can help you. Ask the staff to show you and your caregiver
any other tasks that require special skills (like changing a bandage or giving a shot).
Then, show them you can do these tasks. Write down a name and phone number of a
person you can call if you need help. Talk to a social worker if you’re concerned about
how you and your family are coping with your illness. Write down information about
support groups and other resources. Talk to a social worker or your health plan if
you have questions about what your insurance will cover and how much you’ll have
to pay. Ask about possible ways to get help with your costs.
Action Items
Ask for written discharge instructions (that you can read and understand) and a
summary of your current health status. Bring this information and drug list to your
follow-up appointments. Write down upcoming appointments and tests.
For the Caregiver
Write down and discuss with staff any questions you have about discharge instruc-
tions. Can you give the patient the help he or she needs? What tasks do you need
help with? Do you need any education or training? Talk to the staff about getting the
help you need before discharge. Write down a name and phone number of a person
you can call if you have questions. Get prescriptions and any special diet instructions
early, so you won’t have to make extra trips after discharge.
