Prescription drug disposal<br />
The National Association of Drug<br />
Diversion Investigators (NADDI) launched<br />
a program to significantly reduce easy<br />
access to outdated or no longer needed prescriptions.<br />
These drugs are the target of theft by<br />
people who have access to the medicine<br />
cabinets of family and friends. America’s<br />
12- to 17-year-olds have made prescription<br />
drugs their number one substance of<br />
abuse, and much of the supply is coming<br />
from the medicine cabinets of their parents,<br />
grandparents and friends.<br />
The following <strong>Grove</strong> <strong>City</strong> pharmacies<br />
accept anonymous disposal of medicines.<br />
My grandparents are coming over for<br />
Thanksgiving. Should we do anything different?<br />
The simple answer is YES! Here are some tips for<br />
hosting a senior over the Holidays:<br />
• Enjoying the feast - Our taste buds and diets<br />
change as we age so it’s a good idea to take that<br />
into consideration when planning your menu. Did<br />
you know that we lose taste buds as we age, but<br />
chewing can be more difficult? Try to find a dish<br />
that has a little more flavoring but is easy to chew.<br />
Sweet potatoes are a great choice. But remember,<br />
be careful with the salt.<br />
• Household safety - When you’re having<br />
seniors over, make sure your throw rugs are<br />

Senior safety and the holidays<br />
secure or picked up. They look nice but are a fall<br />
hazard for many seniors. Also, be sure outside<br />
walkways, driveways, and stairways are well lit.<br />
Be sure to watch for cords, tight spaces, and other<br />
things that may be hard for a senior to navigate.<br />
With a crowded house and too many crockpots<br />
with extension cords, there is a tripping hazard for<br />
any age.<br />
Time spent with family is a great way to learn<br />
more about how our senior relatives are getting<br />
along while enjoying quality time with them.<br />
Danbury Senior Living communities offer senior<br />
friendly, delicious cuisine as well as a safe environment.<br />
