January 2016 ENGAGE! · Monroe Center for Healthy Aging 3

From the Director’s Desk . . .

The world is changed by our example; not by our opinion. - Paula Coelho

Happy New Year! May 2016 be filled with good health and happiness for all of you. You’ve all added joy to my

life — and to the Monroe Center — and are deserving of wonderful things. 2015 was a busy year. We tried some new things and

enjoyed a small growth in attendance. We’re looking forward to 2016 with great optimism. The older adult

population is growing, and we want to keep pace! On Thursday, January 7, we’re having a Membership meeting at 10:30 a.m. It’s a time for you to talk with

members and staff about the Center and to share idea about what you’d like to see offered. And, if you have

complaints, we want to hear those, too. Your input will help us to grow and improve. One area that we want to develop in the New Year is in

reaching out to those who are lonely and may not be able to get to the Center. We’ll need at least two things for this — your help in identifying folks who are home alone

or otherwise isolated — and people to volunteer their time to provide companionship and transportation to

non-medical appointments. Being with others is vital to all of our well-being, and this new effort will help us reach people who may enjoy a friendly visit. Please let

us know how you can help. The New Year, of course, is also a time of resolutions.

Every year, I vow to do better, and this year is the same — eat healthier, exercise more, and show more kindness. On January 14, we’re having the “Fed Up” Odyssey. It’s

a 90-minute video that talks about how we in America got into trouble with weight. “Fed Up” a real eye-opener

that I believe will help us be more mindful of what we’re eating, and thus, lead us to better health and well being. We can accomplish great things when we feel good. I

hope that you will join us. And, please RSVP. And again, Happy New Year — and peace to the world.

WHY RSVP ??

When we have special events and

lunches at the Center, we do ask everyone to RSVP. Lots of you comply — and we thank you. BUT, we have a sizeable amount

of people who say they’re coming and then don’t, and we have peo-

ple who don’t RSVP and attend. While we accommodate everyone, it sure is difficult to know how much to prepare. We’re asking

that we all do a better job in 2016. Please help.

~ Sandie


Message from RSVP . . .

Dear Friends,

Here’s something that came up lately that must be shared. A prospective

volunteer inquired, ”if I am a Volunteer Driver, am I going to be covered by

my auto insurance?”

After calling around the state, polling all the other RSVPs, talking to various

non-profit and government agencies involved in volunteer transportation

programs, as well as insurance professionals, here’s the answer according

to a publication from the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial

Services, [FIS-PUB 0224]

“Michigan law states that automobile insurance coverage cannot be limited

and/or refused when the vehicle is used for volunteer and charitable

endeavors....”

and

“Most insurers have not been rating for such use.”

So, If you want to help your neighbor get to an appointment, and God bless

you if you do, you are one of thousands of community spirited folks who are

protected by Michigan Law.

Interested? Drop by our offices and talk to Josh Fields, Volunteer Coordi-

nator, or me. We’ll provide the publication from the State of Michigan and

we can also share how RSVP provides FREE supplemental liability insurance

to our member volunteers. It’s all good news.

Yours in national service,

Joe Grifka

Sports Talk with Denis

Hi everybody. I hope everybody had a nice holiday. Recently I met a

gentleman who lives at Sanctuary at Marian Place. His name is Jerry Imsland.

He was born and raised in Detroit area. I learned that he was a college football player who

played with Kentucky and the University of Michigan. He played two years for the Wolverines

in 1968 and 1969. In 1969 that was when Bo Schembechler became head coach at Michigan.

Jerry played wide receiver for Michigan. He said that Bo was a very stern toward his players.

But he knew that was the only way they played good football. Jerry said that they won the

Rose Bowl in 1969. Jerry said he remembered a lot of good things when he attended Michigan

and playing football too. We are glad to have Jerry here as one of our residents, plus being

such a good college football that played for one of the fine establishments as Michigan.

In other college football news, the four teams are now selected for the football playoffs. And

Michigan State is one of them. I hope they can win the NCAA football championship. Their

biggest win this season is when they beat Ohio State to knock the Buckeyes out of the top

spot in the rankings. We hope that the Spartans continue to play good defense and offensive

to make it to the championship game.

As for the Detroit Lions, well they are now riding out the season. After winning 3 games to get

back into the running, they screwed up a game against the Green Bay Packers that they

should have won. They are making to many critical penalties that are killing them. I think after

the season they better look for another head coach.

The Detroit Red Wings are right now going through a rollercoaster. They will go for winning

streak then lose a few. This is not the way to get points to climb up in the standings. They

have to play good in all their games to be able to make the playoffs.

Same thing with the Detroit Pistons. I know they have a good team too. But they have to play

good too. They cannot play winning basketball and then lose a few either. The Pistons have

enough good players that they could be in the playoffs this year.

And finally the Detroit Tigers got a new pitcher. He is a starting pitcher from the Washington

Nationals. He has a good ERA and has pitched a lot of innings too. With him the Tigers will

have another good starter besides Justin Verlander.

Well that is all for now, sports fans. Will talk to you next month.

~ Denis Lecurgo

Who is a Target? Anyone can be a target of phishing. While some attacks may focus on a person or group of people, others cast a much wider net. It is important to remember that a

thief’s goal is to obtain personally identifiable information to gain access to your financial accounts.

Common Scenarios. Typically, the thief uses an email or pop-up window from a company or organization with which you regularly conduct business. The message typically will ask you to

update or validate your account information. Approaches include: “we’re updating our records,” or “valuable ac-count and personal data was lost due to a computer glitch.” To encourage you to act immediately, the notice may threaten that the account could be closed or cancelled if you do not respond. Most emails will ask you to click on a link that takes you to a replica of the company’s website. Tips to Protect Yourself.

Do not respond to unsolicited emails asking to divulge personal information. Reputable organizations with which you legitimately conduct business generally do not request account numbers or passwords unless you initiated the

transaction. Delete suspicious emails without opening them. If

you do open an email that turns out to be fraudu-lent, do not open any attachments or click on any links it may contact.

If you initiate a transaction and need to provide person-

al information through a website, look for indicators that the site is secure. A lock icon on the status bar or a web address beginning with “https://” indicates a se-cure site. Although no site is foolproof, these indica-tors can help lessen the risk.

While Wi-Fi hot spots can be convenient, if you are on

an unsecured network or log in to an unencrypted site, other users on the network can see what you see — and what you send.

Install and regularly update virus protection soft-ware. Keep your computer’s operating system and web browser current. Also, a firewall can help block communications from unauthorized sources.

Review your accounts on a regular basis. It’s one of

the best ways to notice and stop fraudulent activity quickly.

Choose passwords that are difficult for others to

guess and use a different password for each online account. Change your passwords frequently.

Be suspicious if someone requests your personal

information when you haven’t initiated the contact. To check whether an email or a phone call is legitimate, contact the company in question through the phone number or email address listed on its website.

Red Flags. Some common phishing red flags include: Requests for personal information.

Urgent or threatening language. Spelling errors and improper grammar. A link to a site that seems unrelated to the organi-

zation that contact you. An address from which the email was sent that

appears fake. Missing phone numbers or contact information.

Reporting a Phishing Scam. If you believe you have become a victim of phishing, you may file a complaint with the Internet Crime Center at www.ic3.gov or Federal Trade

Commission at www.ftccomplaintassist.gov. Please contact your financial advisor if you need assistance.

Protect Yourself: What is Phishing? Phishing — pronounced “fishing” — is a high-tech scam that utilizes pop-ups, emails, and fraudulent websites to try to “hook” you into divulging personal financial information. Once you’re entered this information, a thief can do lasting damage to your finance accounts.


Monroe County Community Needs Assessment – 2015

With funding from the Monroe County Health Plan, the Monroe County Building Healthy Communities Coalition engaged the Hospital Council of Northwest Ohio to con-duct a comprehensive assessment of our community. The assessment provides a “snap shot” of where Monroe County residents currently stand in terms of their well-being and health habits, and compares Monroe County data with that of regional, state, and national data. The top needs identified for adults and youth include: Adults

73% of adults are obese or overweight 35% of adults have been diagnosed with high

cholesterol and 32% reported having high blood pressure

22% of adults age 65 and older have not received a pneumonia vaccination

20% of adults reported being limited in some way because of a physical, mental, or emotional problem

14% of adults smoke 13% of adults have diabetes

Youth

60% of youth report being exposed to secondhand smoke; 7% of youth report being current smokers

44% of youth report having been bullied in the past year

39% of youth are obese or overweight 32% of youth report that they text and drive 23% of youth reported being depressed 19% of youth rode with someone who had been

drinking In addition to the survey data, Quality of Life survey ques-tions have been asked to measure individual perceptions of the quality of life in our community, the health care system, physical environment, sense of safety, opportuni-ties to contribute, and whether they believe that they can made the community a better place to live. The Coalition has scheduled a series of meetings to re-view the data and responses to the Quality of Life survey and ultimately to develop a Community Health Improve-ment Plan. For more information, contact Jamie Dean at the Monroe County Health Department at 734.240.7909.

Monroe County Older Adults Needs Assessment – 2015

With funding from the Monroe County Senior Millage, the Monroe County Commission on Aging undertook a comprehensive needs assessment to gauge the effec-tiveness of the current service delivery system in terms of meeting the needs of older adults in our com-munity – and to project the future needs, as the Baby Boomers turn of age and older adults live longer.

The Monroe County Senior Millage currently supports 17 non-profit agencies that provide services to individ-uals who live in Monroe County who are 60 years of age or older. These services help to meet the basic needs of older adults – food, shelter, home care, transportation, counseling, community involvement, legal services, and socialization.

Older Population Growth – 2010 to 2025

The Commission on Aging engaged Wayne State University, Institute of Gerontology to conduct a multi-faceted approach for the assessment, including: Older adult focus groups

Caregiver focus groups

Key informant surveys

Service recipient surveys

Individual interviews

Older adult population survey

The results of the needs assessment will be reviewed over the next several months to determine what gaps exist in the service delivery system and what changes are warranted to meet the future needs of older adults. For more information, please contact Jeff McBee at the Monroe County Commission on Aging at 734.240.3290.
