an elegant, peaceful resort-like atmosphere that fosters independence and self-esteem. Once you are in Park

Place you can transition from active retirement to assisted living and still be

in the tranquil resort-like atmosphere you have come to enjoy. A unique Select

Your Care approach allows residents to live life on their own terms while

enjoying the company of others. All of this in a community setting that creates

a sense of pride for residents, staff, family and friends.

Live Life on Your Own Terms

Fort Wayne’s Newest Senior Living Community

Attractive Amenities at Affordable Rental Rates

Active Retirement Licensed Assisted Living Memory Care

PARK PLACE serves seniors who experience various forms of memory loss. Individuals are assessed to identify their cognitive and physical abilities. The Park Place staff takes this a step further. They learn about each person’s unique life story to develop a comprehensive service plan. This is done with the family and ongoing family involvement is fostered and encouraged. Both physical and emotional stimulation are then incorporated into the plan to support and maximize quality of life. A state of the art security system is provided which allows residents to live independently while remaining within the comfort of a secured environment.

2 2013 Guide to Senior Services

A Word from the President of the Council

on Senior Services BY KATHY LEWIS

The Council on Senior Services (COSS) is a community coun-cil of professionals who work for and volunteer for agencies and businesses that serve senior citizens. The goal of COSS is to improve access to services for seniors in Allen County. This directory has been developed to educate senior citizens and professionals about the numerous services that exist.

Proceeds from the advertising sales in this directory pay for printing of the book and for grants to organizations that submit projects created for the health, education and/or welfare of seniors in our community. Grants awarded in 2012 included Community Transportation Network, Allen County Council on Aging, A Day Away Adult Daycare, Allen County TRIAD, Aging & In-Home Services, The Volunteer Center @ RSVP, Turnstone Center for Children and Adults with Disabilities, Northeast In-diana Radio Reading Service, Long Term Care Ombudsman, Hope Alive, Health Visions, Heartland Hospice, Parkview Se-niors Club and Trails Edge Resident Activity Committee.

Organizations interested in placing an ad in the 2014 directory may contact Jill Headrick via e-mail at [email protected].

Directories will be available for pickup at the Community Center, 233 W. Main St., Volunteer Center @ RSVP, 3401 Lake Ave., Suite 4, Aging and In-Home Services, 2927 Lake Ave, Kingston at Dupont, 1716 E. Dupont Rd., League for the Blind & Disabled, 5821 S. Anthony Blvd., and Kingston Residence, 7515 Winchester Rd. To request a copy to be mailed to you, call the Allen County Council on Aging at 426-0060. The direc-tory is also available on the COSS website at www.councilonse-niorservices.org.

The information in this book has been compiled through the efforts of volunteers. The Council on Senior Services (COSS) makes every attempt to ensure that the information is com-plete and accurate. COSS does not take responsibility for omis-sions or errors. Listings in this book do not imply endorsement.

Veterans’ Benefi ts for Long Term CareThe VA provides home and community-based services to veterans. These medically necessary services include home care, hospice, re-spite care, assisted living, domiciliary care, geriatric assessments and nursing home care. The veteran must be enrolled in VA’s health care system. Some of these services may be offered to veterans who do not have service-connected disabilities but who may qualify be-cause of low income or because they are receiving pension income from VA. Call the VA Northern Indiana Health Care System at 426-5431.

Aid and Attendance is an under used benefi t. It is a special pension benefi t for wartime veterans and their wives. Some who are not eli-gible for VA benefi ts because of income, may still be eligible for this benefi t if they have large medical expenses. The benefi t is for those receiving in-home care, inability to take care of bodily needs, or bedridden. They may also qualify because of mental injury or illness that requires regular assistance to protect them from the hazards in their daily environment. They may be living at home, in an assisted living facility, or a nursing facility. For additional information, call Al-len County Veterans’ Services at 449-7861 or access the internet at www.va.gov.

Care Benefi ts


Long Term CareLong term care is a variety of services that include medical and non-medical care to people who have a chronic illness or disability. It helps the individuals meet their health or personal needs. It often as-sists people with support services such as activities of daily living like dressing, bathing, and using the bathroom. These services can be provided in the home, in the community, in assisted livings, or in nurs-ing facilities. Generally, Medicare does not pay for these long term care services, referred to as “custodial care.” Medicare pays only for medically necessary skilled nursing and therapies in the home and for skilled care in nursing facilities.

Medicaid and Long Term CareMedicaid is a combined State and Federal Government program that pays for certain health services and nursing home care for older people with low incomes and limited assets. It is an entitlement pro-gram which means that all who qualify for it will receive it. For infor-mation and to apply, call 1-800-403-0864 or access the internet at www.in.gov/fssa or www.ifcem.com.Medicaid Waiver is the Medicaid program that pays for in-home long term care services. Income allowed in order to be eligible for this program is three times the amount allowed for the regular Med-icaid program. This is not an entitlement program so there may be a wait.

“Care Transitions” originally described a joint initiative of the Admin-istration on Aging (AOA) and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) to fund programs related to improving the coordination of the transitions through the network of Aging & Disability Resource Centers (ADRC) they had created within Area Agencies on Aging. ADRCs have been working to assist individuals in “critical pathways,” which is defi ned as the times or places when people make impor-tant decisions about long-term care. This work included several inno-vative interventions to facilitate the hospital discharge process and to help nursing facility residents return to the community. Since that time, models have expanded around the country, most notably, CMS’ Community-based Care Transitions Program (CCTP). The term is now applied to CMS’ CCTP partners as well as those created un-der other auspices. The hallmarks of any “Care Transition” program should be and evidence-based intervention, a person-centered ap-proach to support patients and their caregivers, support across care

Care Transitions

Safe & Independent at HomeFor over 46 years, the U.S. Administration on Aging (AoA) has pro-vided home and community-based services to millions of older per-sons through the programs funded under the Older Americans Act. President Lyndon Johnson on August 14, 1965, signed into law the Older Americans Act (OAA). The OAA set out specifi c objectives for the maintaining the dignity and welfare of older individuals and cre-ated the primary vehicle for organizing, coordinating and providing community-based services and opportunities for older Americans and their families.

The original legislation established authority for grants to states for community planning and social services, research and develop-ment projects, and personnel training in the fi eld of aging. The law also established the Administration on Aging (AoA) to administer the newly created grant programs and to serve as the Federal focal point on matters concerning older persons. The mission was later ex-panded to include those individuals with disabilities.

Although older individuals and individuals with disabilities may re-ceive services under many other Federal programs, today the OAA is considered to be the major vehicle for the organization and de-livery of social and nutrition services to this group and their caregiv-ers. It authorizes a aide array of service programs through a nation network of 50 states agencies, 629 Area Agencies on Aging, nearby a national network of providers and a number of Tribal and Native Hawaiian organizations.As the Area III Area Agency on Aging as designated by the U.S. Ad-ministration on Aging and Indiana Family and Social Services Ad-ministration, Division of Aging, Aging & In-Home Services of North-east Indiana (AIHS) is the primary resource for aging and disabled populations and the largest funder of services including support for the Council on Aging in the following nine counties: Allen, Adams, DeKalb, Huntington, LaGrange, Noble, Steuben, Wells, and Whitley.


Each year, AIHS completes an Area Plan with information on the needs and preferences of older individuals and persons with disabili-ties and their family caregivers in relation to a comprehensive, coor-dinated system for providing long-term care in home and commu-nity-based settings in AIHS’ nine county region. The AIHS Area Plan is part of the overall State Plan on Aging which is submitted to the Administration on Aging in accordance with provisions of the Older Americans Act.

Services under that plan include Meals on Wheels home-delivered meals programs, Senior Dining in congregate settings, transporta-tion, adult day care, legal assistance, health promotion or chronic disease self-management programs, among others.

Nationally, information on services is available from the Eldercare Lo-cator, a public service of the U.S. Administration on Aging, at 1-800-677-1116, or from the National Department of Health and Human Services - www.longtermcare.org. Clearinghouse for Long-Term Care Information website developed by the U.S.

Locally, access to information and resources on services you need now or in the future, and how to pay for services, is available through Aging & In-Home Services of Northeast Indiana’s Aging and Disabil-ity Resource Center. Aging and Disability Resource Centers (ADRCs) were created by AoA, in partnership with Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS), to provide consumers and caregivers information on home and community-based long-term care services. ADRCs provide consumers information, options counseling, referral, assess-ment, educational and assistance in planning for the future needs. AoA is emphasizing the importance of integration of proven evi-dence-based health promotion interventions, which can lessen dis-ability related to chronic illnesses, prevent falls, and reduce the bur-den experienced by family caregivers of individuals who are older and/or disabled.

The ADRC operated by AIHS receives a wide range of calls. The most requested services are: Case Management; Personal Attendant Care/Home Health Aide; Homemaker/Chore; Meals on Wheels; Re-spite Care; Adult Day Services; Emergency Response Systems; Assis-tive Technology; Assisted Living; Home & Vehicle Modifi cation; Adult Foster Care.

The challenge to the individual and family is often in funding those services. ADRC staff are able to assist in informing about and apply-ing for a variety of federal, state, local programs that assist with pay-ing for in-home services, such as Medicaid Aged & Disabled Waiver,
