Question: What resources can you refer me to for long- term care financial help? My 84-year-old mother needs assisted living or nursing home care , but we don’t have a lot of money and she doesn’t have long- term care insurance . — Searching Daughter Answer: If your mother does not have a long- term care insurance policy , depending on her circumstances, here are several sources you should check into that can help pay for her care. Latest Video The first thing you need to understand is that Medicare — the government health insurance program for seniors 65 and older and those with disabilities — does not cover long-term care, which includes nursing home care , the costs of assisted living facilities and home aide services , unless your mom is receiving skilled nursing or therapy services. It only provides limited short-term coverage, up to 100 days for skilled nursing or rehabilitation services after a hospital stay. However, Medicaid — the joint federal and st...

  Burien resident Gena Schubert is trying to help an elderly neighbor of hers, and is seeking Volunteers for a Work Party this Saturday, Aug. 26. The Work Party is open to all who want to help – just show up to 12438 3rd Ave SW in Burien, WA 98146 (map below) on Saturday. “My across the street neighbor is an elderly woman named Lynn ,” Gena said. “She is wheelchair bound. She recently took a tumble and broke her collar bone. Right now she is in a rehabilitation center but will be getting out at the end of the month. “Lynn has been living in her home for the past 5 years with no power. Think about it being stuck in a wheelchair and not having power. She has been using head lamps to get by. “I know you are wondering why one of the agencies didn’t step up and help. She has COPD and some other ailments, her prescription bill every month is around $1500. So she had to choose one month either to get her meds or pay the power. She chose her meds. When she lost her power she was told that...

One of my favorite things to do after a particularly stressful day is to take abath with Epsom salts. It helps to relieve tension and stress on any given day. And on a day where I need a little extra pampering, a bath with epsom salts, a magazine, a glass of wine and some aromatherapy candles always do the trick! As much as I love Epsom salts in baths, I never realized that there were actually other ways to use them. So I was excited to find some other excellent ideas from One Good Thing by Jillee. Have you ever used Epsom salts in any of these ways? Reduce Swelling and Itching from Bites: Soak a cotton washcloth in a mixture of 1 cup cold water and 2 tbsp Epsom salt . Apply cloth to insect bites for relief. Make Your Own Fabric Softener : Use 10 drops of essential oil mixed with 1 cup of Epsom salt to make an effective fabric softener . Just use about 1/4 per load of laundry at the beginning of each wash cycle. Exfoliate Your Skin: Mix together some Epsom salt with olive oil to cre...

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — During New Mexico’s dry winter months , residents wage war on dry, itchy skin, chapped lips and persistent static cling . To increase moisture at home, solutions range from buying humidifiers to adding houseplants and indoor fountains. Customers ask for humidifiers to combat problems like nosebleeds and dry skin, says Robb Baucom, a sales specialist at Lowe’s on Paseo del Norte in Albuquerque. Indoor humidity should be 35 percent to 40 percent, which can be measured on some thermometers. Other ways to add moisture • After a shower, open the bathroom door to let steam out to the rest of the house. •  Don’t run the dry cycle on the dishwasher. Instead, open the door to release moisture, which also saves money. •  Buy an indoor fountain. •  Hang wet clothes to dry in the house, either on a laundry rack or hangers, which saves on energy costs. • Add houseplants. • Fill a spray bottle with water, adding lemon rind or herbs like rosemary or lavender for scent.

Blame the voters – Whirlpool’s shares tumbled more than 10 per cent on Tuesday after it said that consumer jitters after the UK’s Brexit vote and ahead of the US presidential election had softened third-quarter demand in those markets for washers and other home appliances. Shares of Whirlpool, which had been up about 1 per cent over the past year prior to today, hit an eight-month low on Tuesday after it unveiled earnings that were largely weaker than expected. On Tuesday, Whirlpool reported net sales fell in the third quarter of 2016 to $5.25bn, from $5.28bn during the same three-month period last year and missing the $5.3bn predicted by analysts. The company said revenue was dragged down by a weaker post-Brexit pound and UK consumer demand , and a flurry of promotional activity in the US that it said allowed importing rivals to undercut its prices with cheaper goods. Quarterly net income gained slightly from a year earlier, to $238m, or $3.10 per diluted share, up from $235m, or...

Oct 2 2009 Tub faucet adapter for washing your dog Photo by Homz No matter how short the trip, Chloe invariably becomes filthy at some point and requires a bath. Most of the time, it’s no problem, since nearly every place we stay has a shower — and with a small dog, a shower’s all you need. Pick her up and hold her under the water until she’s wet, set her down and lather her up, then pick her up and rinse her off. Easy! Every so often, though, we encounter a hotel room or a house that has a tub, but no shower. Washing a dog in a tub is a pain, so we’ve added to Chloe’s travel checklist and packing list a shower head on a hose that slips over a tub’s faucet and converts it to a handheld shower . It’s inexpensive and not terribly bulky — and it sure beats wetting your dog down and rinsing her off one mugful of water at a time. [5/15/13 I’ve removed the link because the product I bought is no longer available. Look in the comments below for a link to an alternative currently available on...

We rarely think too much about our bathroom walls , generally going for the practical option of tiles and paint. They're fine like that, of course, but just imagine all the many approaches that could add personality and extra interest.  There are lots of ways to give a plain bathroom a boost – some require small changes, others are more involved – but each of the ideas here make a bathroom look anything but uninteresting. Be inspired by these schemes to start your own transformation. 1. Hang patterned wallpaper   Not just for your living room, wallpaper is a wonderful way to make a bathroom look immediately homey. Use something boldly patterned for drama and really go for it – people don't expect wallpaper in bathrooms, so the results are always eye-catching.  Make sure you hang it somewhere that won't get soaked – as with this panel above splashback tiles – and coat it in waterproof varnish to protect it from moisture. 2. Be bold with a mural Bathrooms are separate from...

Radio 2 presenter Jeremy Vine is happy to tackle almost any subject on his show — whether it’s his huge BBC salary or a health scare that’s troubling him.  Here, in the final exclusive extract from his  memoirs, he talks about when he feared he had skin cancer, a bout of depression — and the life lessons that his small children have taught him . . . Here's a question: what do you do when you look at your reflection and you see a mole you have never noticed before? Just after the whole Strictly madness came to a juddering halt, I stood naked in front of the bathroom mirror and noticed a deep brown freckle under my left collarbone. The freckle was the size of the nail on your little toe. Not big, but had it been there before? I spoke to the Radio 2 doctor, Sarah Jarvis. ‘You and I are at the very top of skin cancer risk in later life,’ advises Dr Jarvis , a red-head. ‘We have to watch for moles, freckles, anything unusual.’ ‘When is later life?’ I ask. ‘It’s now!’ she tells me. ...
