Your pharmacist offers solutions that can help you manage multiple medications. 1. Synchronized Refill Dates. The quantities of your medication may be adjusted to coordinate refill dates. All medications can be refilled at one time reducing the number of visits to the pharmacy. 2. Blister packaging to arrange your medications in a weekly or monthly schedule. 3. Extension of Expired Refills. Sometimes a prescription expires before you can see your doctor. Following an assessment, your pharmacist may be able to renew your prescription.

Timeout is a temporary, artificial, and inadequate solution to a real problem. Worse, it actually prevents us from seeing the real problem, because when kids feel judged and rejected, they tend to clam up (as we all do). In truth, timeout is the exact opposite of what our children need when their behavior hits the skids. Defiance, aggression and other limit pushing behavior are our children’s way of letting us know their impulses have taken hold. We successfully handle challenging behavior by following these steps:*Focus on helping our children when they can’t help themselves, *Set limits calmly and early, expect impulsivity, *Be ready to physically follow through with limits by preventing unsafe or inappropriate behavior, *Accept and acknowledge feelings without judgment, so that children can trust us as their empathic leaders and themselves as good people.

When seniors find themselves living alone, feeling alone, or gravitating toward isolation, it’s important for them to seek human connection opportunities.

As residents boost their engagement, interact with people more regularly, discover new interests and hobbies, share meals and activities, participate in discussions, and take advantage of various human touchpoints, they are better positioned to live healthier, longer, happier lives.
