State Disclaimers: twgf.co/legal Giving Life, One Donation at a Time By Rebecca Robertson You’re probably not surprised to see an article asking you to donate blood. We’re in a pandemic after all, right? Surprisingly, patients ill with COVID-19 aren’t creating the shortage of blood, reports Gulf Coast Regional Blood spokesperson, Kevin Shipley. It’s all of those responsible citizens staying home. It makes sense if you think about it. As we avoid extra trips out and non-essential social situations, we’ve started to make it a habit to postpone those things we should do, and the Blood Center is feeling the effects. The Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center services 26 counties, which includes Houston and the Houston Medical Center. Though our large population has its fair share of pandemic patients and trauma needs, the greatest demand for blood comes from everyday, necessary medical procedures like chemotherapy and childbirth, among others. It’s safe to say that the need isn’t going away. Did you know that 1 out of 7 people benefit from donations but only 1 out of 20 actually donate? Of those that do, most do so less than once a year. We have some room for improvement here, people! Each blood donation can benefit up to three patients, and as of June 15, 2020, all donations are tested for the COVID-19 antibody. While Community Blood Drives are still available, you can schedule a donation time that works for you at one of the fourteen area Neighborhood Donor Centers which allow for online appointments, reminders, and well-equipped facilities, all socially distanced and sanitized for your protection. So, as you wrap up yet one more Zoom call, take a minute to visit www.giveblood.org and schedule your donation today. If getting out of the house still brings a twinge of worry, these folks have been wearing gloves, wiping everything down, and washing hands since 1975, and saving countless lives in the process.

The necessity for continuous care is common and a growing trend across the globe. In Texas, Sundance Memory Care Communities offer a unique approach. While many facilities solely address care for the physical person, Sundance uses a Montessori approach to address much, much more. Yes, Montessori, like that great little school you sent your kids to way back when. The Montessori approach highlights hands-on activities, independence, cooperation, and learning tailored to each person. For children, this means a more customized and flexible approach, thought to produce independence, improved social skills, and responsibility. Like a young child, a person who has begun to lose cognitive skills comes with a foundation of interests and capabilities that are ingrained. This unique history creates an ideal starting point for combining day-to-day routines with a necessary new environment, an environment better adapted to with this Montessori approach to learning. This key premise is at the core of the programs offered at Sundance with activities based on each resident’s story. In a nutshell, this means abundant years of life experience – what they did for a living, where they lived, what family they created, what they were good at. All of this remains an important part of each resident’s identity. Connection to their life, even though abilities have changed, set the framework for the client’s best life moving forward, a life filled with respect, dignity, and equality. Beyond services to its residents, Sundance offers education programs at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels designed for family members and loved ones, guardians, estate planners, as well as industry professionals seeking continuing education credits. These online and, when available, in-person courses are a great way to get a better understanding of what dementia is, gain insights about leading research, and help create strategies for care for a loved one.
