The frontage lawn of Lakeview Senior Living has been forever transformed by the recent addition of a granite bench memorial for June Elaine Urben envisioned and donated by her grandson Brian Regan. According to her daughter Carol Marshall, “June had the ability to not live in the past, but rather to move on. In times of adversity, her attitude was ‘This too shall pass’. She had a great fondness for pets, with a series of dogs and cats and, at one time, a pet monkey. Her last pet was a Miniature Yorkie named Snert. In her later years she became legally blind and extremely hard of hearing. However, she retained her sense of humor, had a sweet smile and was as sharp as a tack. She wanted to live to be 100-years-old, and she succeeded on October 14, 2023. Lakeview Assisted Living was her home for the last 7 years of her life, where she loved her fellow residents and staff.” The public is welcome to stop by the bench, a permanent place for rest and relaxation, at Lakeview Senior Living, 2690 NE Yacht Ave. in Lincoln City. For more information, call hearing. However, 541-994-7400 or visit www.lincolncityseniorliving.com.

The landscape of elderly care has dramatically transformed over the years, with technology playing a pivotal role. At Lakeview Senior Living in Lincoln City, OR, we’ve witnessed firsthand the positive impact of technological advancements in enhancing the lives and help for the elderly.
Tech Innovations: A New Era of Elderly Support
Innovative solutions, from health-monitoring gadgets to social connectivity tools, have revolutionized how we provide help for the elderly. These technologies offer practical assistance and empower seniors to maintain independence and a high quality of life.
Health Monitoring and Management
Advanced Health Monitoring Devices
Gadgets like smartwatches and health monitors are game-changers in senior healthcare. They allow for real-time tracking of vital signs, alerting caregivers and medical professionals to potential health issues before they escalate.
Medication Management Applications
Medication management can be a complex task for many seniors. Digital applications simplify this process, ensuring that medication schedules are followed accurately, reducing the risk of missed or double doses.
Enhancing Safety and Security
Emergency Response Systems
Seniors can quickly summon help in an emergency with the touch of a button. These systems provide peace of mind for the elderly and their families, knowing that assistance is readily available.
Smart Home Technologies
Smart home devices, such as motion sensors and automated lighting, play a crucial role in preventing accidents at home. They create a safer living environment, especially for those with mobility or cognitive impairments.
Staying Connected in a Digital Age
Social Media and Communication Platforms
Digital platforms bridge the gap between seniors and their loved ones, facilitating easier and more frequent communication. Video calls, social networks, and instant messaging help maintain strong social ties, which are crucial for mental well-being.
Online Communities and Forums
Online communities offer a space for seniors to engage with peers, share experiences, and receive support. These platforms provide a sense of belonging and an opportunity for social interaction, which is often limited in later life.
Online Communities and Forums
Cognitive Health and Digital Engagement
Brain-Training Apps and Games
Digital tools designed to enhance cognitive abilities have shown promising results in maintaining mental sharpness. Games and applications focusing on memory, problem-solving, and attention can be fun and beneficial for cognitive health.
Educational Platforms and E-Learning
Lifelong learning is now more accessible than ever. Online courses and educational platforms allow seniors to explore new interests and engage their minds, contributing to their overall mental wellness.
Simplifying Daily Tasks with Tech
Smart Appliances and Assistive Devices
Technology has made everyday tasks easier and safer for seniors. Smart appliances can be remotely controlled, reducing the need to perform physically demanding tasks. Assistive devices, like voice-activated systems, help those with limited mobility or vision to navigate their daily lives more independently.
Wearable Tech for Health and Fitness
Wearable technology goes beyond just monitoring health; it encourages an active lifestyle. Fitness trackers motivate seniors to stay physically active, providing data on their progress and achievements.
Personalized Care Through Technology
AI and Machine Learning in Elderly Care
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are at the forefront of personalized elderly care. These technologies can analyze patterns in behavior and health, leading to customized care plans that cater to the unique needs of each individual.
Telehealth and Remote Consultations
Telehealth services have become a boon for seniors, especially those in remote areas. Remote consultations with healthcare providers ensure continuous medical support without the need for frequent physical visits to clinics.
Our Commitment to Technological Advancement
Incorporating Cutting-Edge Tech in Our Services
We are committed to incorporating the latest technological innovations into our care services at Lakeview Senior Living. Our approach ensures that residents receive the best possible support while maintaining their independence and dignity.
Training and Support for Residents and Staff
We understand that adapting to new technologies can be challenging. That’s why we offer comprehensive training and support for our residents and staff, ensuring everyone can benefit from these advancements.
Choosing the Right Technology Solutions
Assessing Individual Needs
Selecting the right technological solutions requires understanding the individual’s specific needs and abilities. At Lakeview Senior Living, we assist families in making informed decisions about the technologies that will most benefit their loved ones.
Balancing Tech and Human Touch
While technology is crucial in enhancing elderly care, the human element remains irreplaceable. We believe in a balanced approach that combines the efficiency of technology with the warmth and compassion of human interaction.
Embracing a Future of Tech-Enhanced Elderly Care
The integration of technology into elderly care opens up a world of possibilities. From health monitoring to social engagement, tech-driven solutions significantly benefit seniors. At Lakeview Senior Living, we are at the forefront of this exciting evolution, ensuring our residents enjoy a life of comfort, safety, and joy.
If you or your loved one could benefit from our tech-enhanced approach to elderly care, we invite you to reach out. Our team of experts is ready to assist you in exploring the best options for your unique needs.
Call us at 541-994-7400 to discover how technology can help for the elderly loved one.
Veterans Day was especially meaningful to the residents and staff at Westmont of Riverside. The property, formerly named Air Force Village West, is one of the largest retirement communities in California and home to many retired military service members and their families. A volunteer committee of twelve residents decided to commemorate this year’s Veterans Day by unveiling a bronze plaque at the community’s entrance. “We are dedicating this plaque to all those past, present and future resident veterans, spouses, and widows in recognition of their sacrifices to our country,” said Bill Baltazar, Lt. Col. US Air Force, (Ret.), chairperson of the Veteran’s Appreciation Committee. The event held on Veterans Day involved many people, starting with an invocation by Chaplain Don Lederer, Major, U.S. Air Force, (Ret.); the honor guard hailed from the California Military Institute under the direction of David Sibley, Master Sergeant U.S. Marine Corps, (Ret.); followed by a bugle performance of The Star Spangled Banner by Cadet Matthew Rodriguez and to end the unveiling ceremony, a rendition of God Bless America was sung by Monya Henry, Executive Director, Westmont of Riverside. Westmont of Riverside is located at 17050 Arnold Drive, Riverside. For more information, please call 951-697-2100 or visit http://www.westmont-village.com/.

A new Morningstar Neurofeedback Clinic is open on the campus of Westmont of Riverside located at 17050 Arnold Drive. The clinic is especially helpful for those with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and early on-set Dementia. Neurofeedback provides numerous benefits in maintaining healthy cognition, especially for those who are struggling with memory concerns and other mental health conditions. Improved memory performance can offer a better quality of life. The clinic which is now open for appointments on Mondays and Fridays in the Health Care Center is under the direction of Connie McReynolds, Ph.D., a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor with more than 30 years of experience.
“Many people begin to notice a decline in mental clarity, memory or executive functioning as they age,” said Dr. McReynolds. “And the importance of cognitive health can’t be underestimated as it plays an integral role in a person’s social, cultural, physiological, and environmental background. Sadly, people often put off taking steps to improve their cognitive health. Our practice is designed to support those who may also be feeling anxious, depressed, forgetful or fearful about their future.” Dr. McReynolds has published and presented internationally on her successful outcomes in treating anxiety, depression, chronic pain, attention, concentration, focus, and trauma including PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). Dr. McReynolds is contracted with the Veteran’s Affairs/TriWest to provide services at no cost for veterans.
Time seems to fly. Before you know it, there’s a big celebration for your 100th birthday. That’s what happened to Barbara one recent afternoon as family and friends gathered for this auspicious anniversary. Instead of being the only one who received gifts; she handed out books as gifts. You see, Barbara had written a memoir about her life for her family. Filled with interesting stories and anecdotes from her early days in San Francisco, to her 31-year marriage, of her three children and all that followed. After she retired as Secretary to the President of Bellarmine High School, a prestigious Catholic college-prep school in San Jose, she decided to write and took writing classes through the Adult Education program in Santa Clara. Barbara penned her memoir especially for her 6 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren about what life was like when she was a child.

The building has been designed, in part through our licensing, to allow seniors to age in place from independence to assisted and memory care. So that you don’t have to move homes.
When more support is needed we call this “person-centered care” versus treatment. When we notice advanced memory loss, we talk with the family to facilitate a transition to experience our Compass Rose memory care support. We find out about this person and what they enjoyed about their life: their vocations and passions to create a memory support program for them. For instance, if someone was an artist before, then we spend more artistic time as their long-term memory is still active so we tap into their former life to keep them engaged.
The building amenities support an inspired life from the moment you enter, a large foyer opens to a fireplace that welcomes you and is designed to foster socialization. The dining experience offers not only a great menu but a custom approach to meal times. The second-floor bar and lounge area is a wonderful place with allows for a variety of activities. A movie theater with nightly movie screenings at 6 p.m., Fitness with Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy services onsite, and Hair and Nail Salon, among other amenities.
A full calendar of activities such as group Jeopardy, Nurse Talk with the Resident Services Director, and Poker and Cards night with the Maintenance Director. Each Director likes to participate in an activity that appeals to them and helps them stay connected. It’s a passion to work in senior living.

National Nurses Week started in 1954 by the American Nurses Association, which was started to celebrate nurses who work in all different settings from schools to hospitals to traveling around the world in order to provide care. Sixty-nine years later we are still honoring those who choose to care for others.
“Nurses Week means that it’s a time when all nurses are recognized and honored for their dedication to the health and wellness of people. Nursing is being selfless, they make sure that their patients, or residents are the priority while ensuring they are treated with kindness, compassion, and dignity,” said Theresa Egurrola, R.N. and regional care director for Westmont Living communities in Central California.
The 2023 Nurses Week theme “Nurses Make a Difference: Anytime, Anywhere – Always” honors the unwavering commitment of DHA nurses to their patients and the value they provide to the unified healthcare team in accomplishing their medical readiness mission.
If you see a nurse this week, take a moment to thank them for their service. And, if they are agreeable…give them a hug!
