What’s the Secret to a Long, Independent Life?
You can’t read the news without hearing confusing reports on how to age in a healthy way.
Is it drinking a glass of wine every day? A routine sleep schedule? Eating more eggs – or fewer eggs?
Whether you’re 45 or 75, what can you do to live a longer and healthier life?
The key is having health care providers who treat you as a whole person, says Deb Geihsler, CEO and Co-founder of
best-selling author and international expert in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
Today, Grey Matters is the first primary care clinic in the nation that focuses solely on managing cognitive health and preventing cognitive decline by combining Dr. Bredesen’s protocols with a primary care approach.
Patient testimonials show the clinic is making a di erence. Said one patient: “I feel like a totally di erent person.
You’re a whole person, and that’s how you should be treated.
Grey Matters Health in Sarasota.
“If you’re just being treated for your diabetes or heart disease, who is managing your overall health? You’re a whole person, and that’s how you should be treated,” she said.
“We use the principles of functional medicine to identify the root causes of your health concerns – not just your symptoms to promote lasting wellness. That means we treat you with primary and integrated care that’s evidencebased, plus ongoing support throughout your life.”
Along with primary care and functional medicine, Grey Matters specializes in preventing, delaying or even reversing cognitive decline. Geihsler co-founded Grey Matters with Dale Bredesen, M.D.,
Even my family members have noticed a di erence in my behavior. We feel like we have someone who is really taking care of us.”
Editor’s Note: Grey Matters is located at 2801 Fruitville Rd, Suite 290, Sarasota. Grey Matters also has locations in Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra Beach, as well as treating patients around the nation remotely.

Payable on Death?
Quite often, I am told “All of my accounts have beneficiaries listed.” It is usually a way that a client tries to avoid disclosing information about their asset holdings.
This is a major mistake that is often discovered when it is too late, which could lead to unintended consequences (probate, guardianship, or litigation).
Beneficiaries can be listed on certain accounts as a payable on death/ transfer on death. Examples of these types of accounts are checking and savings accounts, life insurance policies, certificate of deposits, pensions, and retirement accounts. You would have to fill out forms at the financial institution to list the beneficiaries. Easy enough. Easy enough??
Even with the best of intentions, a mistake can happen. Here are some examples.
• First, the listed beneficiary could die before you do.
• Second, you divorced the beneficiary, but you intended for them to inherit the asset.
• Third, the account has a joint owner for the ease paying the bills, but you did not intend for that person to inherit the entire account.
• Fourth, you named a minor (under the age of 18) or an incapacitated adult, causing a need to establish a guardianship.
• Fifth, you named someone who is on Medicaid as the beneficiary which could lead to a loss of benefits.
The solution to resolve this type of mistake is to proceed with probate and or a guardianship through the Court, or in worst case scenario, litigation! Instead, reach out to an estate planning attorney who can assist you in preventing these costly mistakes. Call today for a free 30-minute consultation at 941-315-2114.

Mortellaro Law: Live For Today, Plan For Tomorrow
I’m Michaelangelo Mortellaro, the principal attorney at Mortellaro Law, a Tampa-based Elder Law and Estate Planning law firm serving individuals in Hillsborough County and the surrounding areas. Today, I want to talk about the essentials of estate planning and how we can help you navigate this important process.
Estate Planning
At Mortellaro Law, we focus on creating comprehensive estate plans that provide you with peace of mind and meet your unique goals. One of the core components of an estate plan is a will and trust. These documents are crucial for clearly expressing your final wishes and can help reduce potential conflicts among family members. For example, a well-drafted Revocable Living Trust o ers benefits like avoiding probate and ensuring that your assets are managed according to your wishes.
Living Trusts
If you’re wondering whether a Revocable Living Trust is right for you or if you have questions about the benefits of jointly titled bank accounts, we can provide you with detailed, personalized answers. Our team of experienced attorneys is here to o er you the best advice based on your specific situation.
Medicaid Benefits
Our firm is knowledgeable about Medicaid benefits. We can explain how to best apply for Medicaid coverage, including any information that details
problems you have or assistance you may need with the activities of daily living (ADL’s), or other important factors that can help you qualify.
VA Benefits
I’m also a VA-accredited attorney. This designation allows me to assist veterans and their families with the Aid and Attendance (A&A) benefit, a valuable resource for those needing assistance with daily activities. Many people are unaware of this benefit, and we are here to provide clear and concise information on how to qualify and take advantage of it.
At Mortellaro Law, we are dedicated to helping you secure your family’s future and ensure your estate plan aligns with your goals. In addition to the services, we just spoke about, we also provide services for:
• Powers of Attorney

Senior Friendship Centers: Empowering Seniors to Lead Fulfilling, Joyful Lives
For more than 50 years, Senior Friendship Centers has been empowering the Gulf Coast senior community through connections, care and purpose.
Today, as a nonprofit organization serving older adults in four Southwest Florida counties, Senior Friendship Centers is a crucial safety net for more than 10,000 seniors, providing a variety of innovative and enriching programs and services. At the heart of its mission is the belief that everyone – of every age - deserves a life filled with dignity, purpose and joy.
• Hubs of laughter, learning and friendship, the organization’s Activity Centers provide welcoming, joyful spaces where older adults can stay active and socially connected. Daily activities range from exercise and dance classes to art workshops, games, social events and 70+ more.
• When words fail, memories fade and physical abilities are compromised, Adult Day Services o er compassionate, professional care, while giving caregivers peace of mind and a much-needed respite. These programs help individuals remain at home longer, delay institutional care, and improve their quality of life.
• Today, one in five Americans is a caregiver, which can be both rewarding and, at times,
overwhelming. Senior Friendship Centers provide Caregiver Support that includes the tools, knowledge and encouragement needed so that caregivers can take care of both themselves and their loved ones. This includes educational resources, respite programs and peer groups, along with a myriad of other services.
• A cornerstone of Senior Friendship Centers’ work, nutrition and dining services includes nutritious and delicious meals served at congregate dining sites and homedelivered meals to help combat hunger and isolation among seniors.
• With a focus on supportive aging, Senior Friendship Centers provides older adults with assistance navigating the many complexities of aging, including health care, housing, Medicare, and social services.
• Through lifelong learning opportunities, seniors can explore new interests, develop skills, and stay mentally engaged — all proven factors in healthy aging. This includes volunteer opportunities which allow older adults to find purpose through service, proving that everyone has something valuable to contribute, at every age.

Independent Living Definitions
ACTIVE ADULT RETIREMENT
COMMUNITY: Active adult communities o er independent, relatively maintenance-free living to residents aged 55 and over. In “age restricted” active adult communities, 80% of homeowners must be 55 and over, while “agetargeted” communities simply market to the 55+ crowd.
INDEPENDENT LIVING (IL):
Communities designed specifically for the aging adult to enhance quality of life and remain independent as long as possible. A community may o er annual rentals or month-to-month. Independent Communities provide residents with convenient access to dining & meal plans, entertainment and social activities, transportation, housekeeping & laundry, maintenance, wellness clinics, and access to third party medical services. Apartment styles vary and can include studios, one bedrooms, or two bedrooms. Communities o er amenities such as full kitchens, on-site pool, fitness center, walking paths, and more. These communities are NOT licensed to provide personal/nursing care.
SUPERVISED INDEPENDENT LIVING:
If you or your loved one may not need all the benefits of assisted living, then supervised independent living may be the right option for you. It’s the perfect bridge between being completely independent and not necessarily
needing all of the care assisted living residents may need. Traditional independent options plus the option of adding ala carte personal care services as needed.
CCRC/LIFECARE: Continuing Care Retirement Community otherwise known as Life Care, o ers a campusstyle environment that may include villas, apartments or condos, assisted living, and skilled nursing services. A large endowment fee is usually required that entitles residents to use assisted or skilled services when needed throughout their lifetime. Residents “purchase” their villa or condo and then pay monthly maintenance fees. Payor sources accepted are private pay in villas/ apartments/condos and some insurance plans in AL. See SNF for payor sources.

Live the Life You Deserve at The Alloro at University Groves
Nowadays, we hear a lot about the notion of ‘living your best life,’ and the idea of prioritizing your overall wellness and happiness As more and more newly-minted seniors continue to embrace this concept, a new type of 55+ living experience has emerged - Active-Adult communities. Featuring robust activity and event calendars and resort-inspired amenities, these facilities cater to those who elect to shed the burdens of home ownership and maintenance in favor of a downsized, hassle-free life.
They do not feature the higher level of medical service and support that one might expect to see at a more traditional ‘old folks’ home,’ instead offering residents an experience more comparable
to a high-end vacation – a tradeoff that has proven extremely desirable to this new generation of young seniors.
In Sarasota, Florida, The Alloro at University Groves has taken this idea to the next level. The Alloro team has recognized that the needs of the modern senior have evolved and has gone to great lengths to emphasize providing its residents the freedom they

Now with all this newfound freedom, residents of The Alloro can focus on what’s truly important – their happiness and well-being. Thankfully, this community offers them everything needed to tailor their retirement experience to a perfect fit.
Whether it’s a relaxing day sunbathing at the property’s pool and spa, a beauty treatment at the on-site salon, a workout in the state-of-the-art fitness center or pickleball court, a leisurely walk in the dog park or even just a mellow night at home in their spacious one- or two-bedroom apartment, residents have access to activities and resort inspired amenities right at their fingertips.
Exciting still, Alloro residents are able to take full advantage of their new home’s prime location. Conveniently located just a short
drive from Sarasota’s bustling downtown and many of the region’s top shopping, dining and entertainment destinations, Alloro community members have no shortage of exciting, fun and enjoyable outings just a stone’s throw from their beautiful new apartment.

Assisted Living Definitions
WHAT ARE ASSISTED LIVING COMMUNITIES?
Assisted living provides a combination of housing, personal care services, and health care designed to respond to individuals who need assistance with normal daily activities in a way that promotes maximum independence. Services include, but are not limited to:
• Nutritional meals and special diets
• Supervision and assistance with personal care (bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, transfers, and eating)
• Health monitoring
• Assistance with self-administration of medications
• Arrange for health care and mental health services
• Provide or arrange for transportation to medical appointments
• Housekeeping and Laundry services
• Daily social and leisure activities
• Supervise residents with dementia and/or cognitive impairments
• Provide or arrange for rehabilitative services
• Provide escort services to medical appointments
• Educational programs to promote health and prevent illness
TYPES OF ASSISTED LIVING COMMUNITY LICENSES:
There are four types of assisted living licenses. A community must have a standard assisted living community license in order to operate in the state of Florida. The other four licenses can be added in order for the community to provide services designated outside the spectrum of a standard assisted living community license.
STANDARD LICENSE: A residential community that provides direct physical assistance with or the supervision of activities of daily living, assistance with medication(s) and other similar services.
LIMITED NURSING SERVICES
(LNS) LICENSE: An assisted living community with a LNS license provides the same services as a Standard License Community as well as nursing services provided by licensed nurses within the scope of their nursing practice. The resident would still need to meet admission and continued residency criteria. LNS services include but are not limited to:
• Nursing assessments
• Administration of medications
• Measurement and recording of vital signs and weight
• Dietary management, including special diets, monitoring nutrition, food, and fluid intake
• Diabetes management, oxygen administration, and wound care
EXTENDED CONGREGATE CARE
(ECC) LICENSE: An assisted living community with an ECC license allows a resident to age in place. In addition to LNS services, ECC communitites provide:
• Total help with bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting
• Assistance with (non-nasogastric) tube feeding
LIMITED MENTAL HEALTH LICENSE:
An assisted living community that serves three or more mental health residents. The basic services of assisted living are provided to the resident. In addition to these services, LMH license provides mental heatlh services to support the individual.
MEMORY CARE: These are licensed assisted living communities that specialize in delivering care to residents su ering from a cognitive impairment. These include but are not limited to: mild cognitive impairment, dementia and Alzheimer’s. Communities are secure for residents’ safety and provide 24-hour supervised care. The same license rules apply as assisted living. Sta members are trained for the special needs of this population.
SHORT TERM/RESPITE CARE:
Circumstances require a caregiver to seek temporary senior housing for
your loved one. Knowing they can move seamlessly into an emergency care environment that supports the wellness needs of seniors allows peace of mind when you are called away for business or vacation, or if you just need a short break from caregiving.
ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING (ADLs):
Define the personal care services available in assisted living and include bathing, dressing, grooming, bathroom assistance, eating and ambulation. Medication Administration and transferring are not ADLs but are factors in determining a person’s level of functioning.
ADULT DAY STAY PROGRAMS:
There are two general types of adult day care programs. One is based on a medical model and the other on a social model. The medical model provides comprehensive medical, therapeutic, and rehabilitation day treatment. The social model o ers supervised activities, peer support, companionship, and recreation. Both models assist older adults and those with chronic conditions to remain as independent as possible, for as long as possible.
ASSISTED LIVING MEDICAID WAIVER
The waiver is available to people who are 60 or older who qualify for Medicaid and are eligible under SSI, MEDS-AD, or ICP. The waiver program does not cover the entire bill in a assisted living community.

Skilled Nursing Definitions
SKILLED NURSING COMMUNITY
(SNF): This level of care is typically found in a nursing center or a transitional care unit in a hospital. Daily rates typically include a furnished bedroom & a private or shared bath, meals, activities, transportation, phone service, cable television and all personal/nursing care. Payor sources usually accepted are Medicare, Medicaid, VA, some insurance plans & private sources.
METHODS OF PAYMENT: Not all nursing homes accept all forms of payments. Furthermore, some nursing homes are limited in the number of beds available for a particular payment form.
MEDICARE: Medicare is a Federal program that serves people 65 and older and those with certain disabilities, regardless of income. Qualified individuals are automatically enrolled in Medicare Part A, but must apply to become eligible for Part B coverage. Medicare generally pays for the first twenty days in a nursing home following a hospital stay of at least three days. Medicare generally pays a portion of the nursing home bill (after the first 20 days) for up to 100 days per year.
MEDICAID: Medicaid is a stateadministered medical assistance program that serves low-income families, those 65 and older, people
who are blind, and people who are disabled. You must apply and qualify for Medicaid before you are eligible for Medicaid coverage. Schedule an appointment with your local Department of Children and Family Services’ Medicaid Eligibility o ce to determine if you are financially eligible for Medicaid. Applicants must demonstrate that assets and income are below a maximum level, as well as other criteria in order to be eligible. Medicaid applicants must also meet medical eligibility for nursing home placement.
SPEECH THERAPY (ST): Assesses and treats speech and swallowing disorders. Provides individually designed treatment programs to maximize communicative e ectiveness for the client, such as stroke, head injury, laryngectomy, voice disorders, as well as cognitive deficits.
TRACH CARE: Refers to care administered to patients who have undergone a tracheotomy. A tracheotomy is a surgical procedure in which a cut or opening is made in the windpipe (trachea). The surgeon inserts a tube into the opening to bypass an obstruction, allow air to get to the lungs, or remove secretions.
OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY (OT):
Assesses and treats small motor function. Utilizes rehabilitative techniques of exercise, splinting and assistive devices to increase the client’s
ability to carry out normal daily activity such as feeding, dressing, grooming, and performing household tasks. Guides client through specialized regimes and encourages sensory and muscle return. Exercises and activities are used to increase upper body extremity function.
PHYSICAL
THERAPY (PT): Refers to assessing and treating large motor function, utilizing rehabilitative techniques of exercise, gait training, prosthetics, and heat to restore the client to his/ her highest functional level of strength, range of motion and mobility.
ABOUT THE AGENCY FOR HEALTH CARE ADMINISTRATION
Our Agency was statutorily created by Chapter 20, Florida Statutes as the chief health policy and planning entity for the state. We are primarily responsible for the state’s estimated $25.2 billion Medicaid program that will serve a projected 4.27 million Floridians in SFY 2016-17, the licensure of the state’s 48,500 health care facilities and the sharing of health care data through the Florida Center for Health Information and Policy Analysis. This year we are working to continue to reduce the number of uninsured across the state, to enhance our ability to target fraudulent providers, to reduce unnecessary regulation, and to reduce administrative costs in order to ensure that dollars go to serve patients and more. This site gives you access to
pull up records on every senior living community and home health agency. It is crucial to investigate if whatever service you are looking for has had citations, if the citations have been remedied etc. This is the only site that can provide you this information in a completely unbiased format. https://www.floridahealthfinder.gov/ (888) 419-3456
