More than half of Americans 65 and older regularly

More than half of Americans 65 and older regularly use the internet or email to shop, stay in touch with loved ones, or research a favorite subject, according to the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).

⁠
According to the Kentucky Office of Senior Protection, online scams against older adults have skyrocketed since COVID-19. Cybersecurity expert Jeff Chandler, CEO of Z-JAK Technologies, offers tips to stay safe while checking your emails and searching the web. {link in bio}⁠

“We as caregivers have a tendency to want our loved ones with dementia to be ‘restored’ and return to their former self,” writes caregiving expert Karen Stobbe of In The Moment. “Do you often find yourself suddenly angry, or frustrated by little things you normally could let go? You may have this unacknowledged yearning for your loved one to ‘snap out of it!‘ and restore themselves.” Learn Karen’s advice for acknowledging these needs and moving forward in your caregiving journey. {link in bio}⁠

Our ability to see, touch, taste, smell, and hear

Our ability to see, touch, taste, smell, and hear what’s around us is something we usually take for granted. But like so many of our body’s systems, our sensory system can decline with age, leading to challenges that leave us struggling to engage. And if you’re caring for someone experiencing sensory decline — or its counterpart, sensory overload — then knowing how to support your loved one’s sensory needs can help make things easier, for you and the person you’re caring for.

Suzanne Hoffacker is like many caregivers: balanci

Suzanne Hoffacker is like many caregivers: balancing a full-time job, a marriage, and raising children while also caring for an older parent. Her family was sharing a home with her 80-year-old father, but when he needed a knee replacement, Suzanne says, “It became evident the closer we got to surgery that I couldn’t care for him and be a mom.” That’s when Suzanne decided to seek respite care for her dad and herself.

Many people believe humans need less sleep as we age, but the reality is more nuanced. While it’s true that sleep patterns change with age — resulting in lighter sleep and more frequent awakenings — older adults still need roughly the same amount of sleep as younger adults. The National Institute on Aging recommends that people aged 65 and older aim for seven to eight hours of sleep per night. According to science, there are some things that really work to help get those coveted hours of sleep. {link in bio}⁠

Do you find yourself in relationships where the person you’re dating (or you?) is emotionally unavailable? Do things start out strong and then fizzle out quicker than you’d like? Do you wonder if you could have done something differently, or wonder if it’s YOU that is unavailable? Either way, it hurts and is frustrating when you’re trying to find your person. Healthy relationships involve open communication, vulnerability, and reciprocity — which aren’t necessarily strengths of people who are emotionally unavailable. ⁠
