Ottawa County’s Snow and Level 3 The severe winter weather started 2014 off with a bang. Not exactly the kind of open-ing we wanted for 2014, but it is winter in Northwest Ohio.

Elmore Senior Center 419-262-3874

Genoa Senior Center 419-855-4491

What a beginning to the year! January saw 2 weeks of snow and COLD that closed our cen-ters from December 31st to January 13th! Sadly, those 2 weeks also brought us the news that our former Site Manager, Tammy Reichert, lost her battle with cancer on Friday, January 10th. Tammy was Site Manager for Genoa and Elmore for 9 years. She was a delightful lady who was always ready with a laugh, a smile, and willingness to help out. Our seniors miss her eve-ry day, but we are all happy for her that she has progressed from the pain. Elmore and Genoa are planning an outing together mid-month to Tony Packo’s in East Toledo for lunch. Genoa is gearing up to host a fund-raiser picnic for Honor Flight this summer, as well as a

Card Party in the Spring. Elmore has plans in the works for a day trip to the Veteran’s Home in Sandusky; we think that may be in March. We are also

anticipating a visit to the Hayes Memorial in Fremont this spring or summer. So, life moves forward, even as we say good-bye to a dear friend. Please remember Tammy and her family in your prayers.

Take care and stay warm!

Cindi, Tom and Mary

“What we have once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose,

for all that we love deeply becomes a part of us”

Tammy Lee Reichert Our dear friend, co-worker and site manager, left this world to find a new and better place with God. We will

miss her infectious smile, her endless energy and her devotion to the seniors of Ottawa County, especially the Genoa & Elmore Senior Cen-ters, for which she gave her heart and soul. Tammy left our sides much too early, but the imprint she has left behind will not be forgotten.

Your life was full of loving deeds,

Forever thoughtful of our special needs,

Today and tomorrow, our whole life through,

We will always love and cherish you.

“There's solace in the thought that I will never

finish missing you!.

Danbury Senior Center 419-798-4101

The year 2014 hasn’t been the greatest of starts to a new year.

Eight years ago I met a smiling redhead that was full

of energy, spunk and not afraid to speak her mind. During

many manager mee%ngs, senior events , emails , facebook

chats or occasional phone calls, I got to know this vibrant,

talented lady, we have all come to love, Tammy. A person

who when I just needed to spat off, would be there to lis-

ten or visa-versa. We shared many things in common. We are the same age,

had grandsons born around the same %me, we both had family in the military,

and lost one of our parents we cared for deeply. Had the support of a loving

husband and family. We both live life to the fullest, and were always there

when someone needed us.

I can say she was a good friend to me, and loved serving

our seniors like I do. When we found out she was ill, it hit all of

us hard. How could this be? Well, the %me came when that vi-

brant, fuller than life girl had enough and went home to be with

her dad in heaven. Her pain and suffering ended and now she is

at peace. She is looking down at us today, and wishing like us,

that this never had happened. All I know is that her %me was cut too short, for

she s%ll had things to do here on earth. Well friend, God thought more of you,

and called you home to him. You must have things there. He now needs you to

help with, most likely a huge func%on for you to decorate for So with that said,

you will be missed my friend. I will never forget your spunk and smiling face.

Thank you for being you. May you rest in peace for eternity. Your forever friend,

Paula

Housetraining your dog or puppy

Christmas has come and gone, did you add a new family member over the holidays. Dogs are great compan-ions for young and old. Now comes the most important part, is he or she potty trained? Well if not here are some great suggestions. Housetraining your dog or puppy requires far more than a few stacks of old newspapers—it calls for vigilance, patience, plenty of commitment and above all, consistency. By following the procedures outlined below, you can minimize house-soiling incidents. Virtually every dog, especially puppies, will have an accident in the house, and more likely, several. Expect this—it's part of living with a puppy. The more consistent you are in following the basic housetraining procedures, the faster your puppy will learn acceptable be-havior. It may take several weeks to housetrain your puppy, and with some of the smaller breeds, it might take longer. Like babies, puppies do best on a regular schedule. The schedule teaches them that there are times to eat, times to play, and times to potty. Generally speaking, a puppy can control his bladder one hour for every month of age. So if your puppy is two months old, he can hold it for about two hours. Don't go longer than this between bathroom breaks or they are guaranteed to have an accident. If you work outside the home, this means you'll have to hire a dog walker to give your puppy potty breaks. Take your puppy outside frequently—at least every two hours—and immediately after he wakes up, during and after playing, and after eating or drinking. Pick a bathroom spot outside, and always take your puppy to that spot using a leash. While your puppy is elim-inating, use a word or phrase, like "go potty," that you can eventually use to remind him what to do before he does really eliminate. Take them out for a longer walk or some playtime only afterward. Reward your puppy every time they eliminate outdoors. Praise them or give them a treat—but remember to do so immediately after they finish eliminating, not after they come inside the house. This step is vital, because rewarding your dog for eliminating outdoors is the only way they know what's ex-pected of them. Before rewarding them, be sure they are finished eliminating. Puppies are easily distracted. If you praise them too soon, they may forget to finish until they are back in the house. Put your puppy on a regular feeding schedule. What goes into a puppy on a schedule comes out of a puppy on a schedule. Depending on their age, puppies usually need to be fed three or four times a day. Feeding your puppy at the same times each day will make it more likely that they eliminate at consistent times as well, and that makes housetraining easier for both of you. Pick up your puppy's water dish about two and a half hours before bedtime to reduce the likelihood that they need to potty during the night. Most puppies can sleep for approximately seven hours without having to elimi-nate. If your puppy does wake you up in the night, don't make a big deal of it; otherwise, they will think it is time to

play and won't want to go back to sleep. Turn on as few lights as possible, don't talk to or play with your pup-py, take them out to do their business, and return them to bed. Tether your puppy to you or a nearby piece of furniture with a six-foot leash if you are not actively training or playing with them. Watch for signs your puppy needs to eliminate. Some signs are obvious, such as barking or scratching at the door, squatting, restlessness, sniffing around, or circling. When you see these signs, immedi-ately grab the leash and take them outside to their bathroom spot. If they eliminate, praise them lavishly and reward them with a treat.

Keep your puppy on leash in the yard. During the housetraining process, your yard should be treated like any other room in your house. Give your puppy some freedom in the house and yard only after they are reliably housetrained. When you're unable to watch your puppy at all times, they should be confined to an area small enough that they won't want to eliminate there. The space should be just big enough for them to comfortably stand, lie down, and turn around in. You can use a portion of a bathroom or laundry room blocked off with baby gates as well. Or you may want to crate train your puppy and use the crate to confine them. (Be sure to learn how to use a crate humanely as a method of confinement.) If your puppy has spent several hours in confinement, you'll need to take them directly to the bathroom spot as soon as you let them out, and praise them when they eliminate. Expect your puppy to have a few accidents in the house—it's a normal part of housetraining. Here's what to do when that happens: Interrupt your puppy when you catch them in the act of eliminating in the house. Make a startling noise (be careful not to scare them) or say "OUTSIDE!" Immediately take them to their bath-room spot, praise them, and give a treat when they finish eliminating there. Don't punish your puppy for eliminating in the house. If you find a soiled area, it's too late to administer a correction. Just clean it up. Rubbing your puppy's nose in it or scolding them after the deed is done will only make them scared of you and will do more harm than good. Clean the soiled area thoroughly. Puppies are highly motivat-ed to continue soiling in areas that smell like urine or feces. Check with your veterinarian or pet store for products de-signed specifically to clean areas soiled by pets. It's extremely important that you use the supervision and confinement procedures outlined above to minimize the number of accidents. If you allow your puppy to eliminate frequently in the house, they will get confused about where they are supposed to eliminate, which will prolong the housetraining process. If you follow the above tips you and your puppy should be well on your way to a healthy potty free home. We would all like to wish you and you’re a happy and healthy New Year!

Attorney General DeWine Warns of Tax Scams

(COLUMBUS, Ohio)—In recognition of Tax Identity Theft Awareness Week, January 13-17, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine today warned consumers to protect their personal information and watch for scams. “At this time of year, consumers are at a higher risk for tax-related iden-tity theft and scams,” Attorney General DeWine said. “Ohioans can help

protect themselves by researching the reputations of tax preparers, using secure websites when filing taxes online, and filing tax returns as soon as possible.” In 2013, the Attorney General’s Office received more than 100 complaints involving tax-related identity theft. This type of fraud can occur when an imposter obtains a taxpayer’s personal infor-mation, files the taxpayer’s return, and receives the taxpayer's refund. Victims of tax-related identity theft should contact the IRS and/or the Ohio Department of Taxa-tion. Identity theft victims also can seek assistance from the Ohio Attorney General's Identity Theft Unit. In addition to identity theft, consumers should be aware of IRS imposter scams where con artists pretend to represent the IRS and contact consumers, claiming the consumers owe money for tax-es. Scammers often contact potential victims via phone and request payment by wire transfer or prepaid money card. To avoid tax-related identity theft and scams: Be skeptical of calls from “IRS representatives” who say there is a problem with your taxes. Don’t respond to unexpected requests for personal information. File your taxes as soon as possible. Request that your employer send your W-2 electronically, rather than through the mail. Thieves may steal tax-related documents and personal information from mailboxes. Check a tax preparer’s credentials. Seek information from the IRS and professional boards or associations. Be skeptical of tax preparers who promise significantly higher refunds than other organizations. Also review complaints on file with the Ohio Attorney General’s Office or Better Business Bureau. Ask questions and review your tax return thoroughly before signing or filing anything with the IRS. Never sign blank documents. Attorney General DeWine recently reached settlements with two Cleveland-area tax preparers. Under the Assurances of Voluntary Compliance, Jeff Saxton, president of ANC Development, an Instant Tax Service franchise, and Fekadu Enterprise Co. and Protax LLC, which operate as Get Money Tax Service, agreed to clearly disclose the costs of tax preparation services and re-fund loans, not misrepresent loan terms or fees, and not file tax returns without consumers’ au-thorization. Consumers who believe they have been treated unfairly or who suspect a scam should contact the Ohio Attorney General’s Office at 800-282-0515 or www.OhioAttorneyGeneral.gov.

VOLENTEERS NEEDED

We are looking for volunteers. If you or someone you know may be interested please contact Jennifer Simpson at 419-734-6833 for more information. PORT CLINTON — Because of an increasing number of Ottawa

County residents in need of a guardian without a suitable person to act as one, Ottawa County Probate Court Judge Kathleen L. Giesler sought to develop a volunteer guardianship program to serve incompetent adults in need. In 2013, the court reached out to Ottawa County organizations as well as other probate courts and agencies throughout the state to help develop its own court-based volunteer guardianship program. This initiative is slated to begin in

February of 2014. The court is now in the process of recruiting volunteers to serve as guardians for persons who primarily reside in nursing homes and have no family or other support systems to act as surrogate decision makers. The role of a volunteer guardian provides the opportunity to nurture, advocate and care for another person in Ottawa County who otherwise may have no one in his or her life. “You can help to insure the best quality of life possible for that person while protecting their dignity,” said Jennifer Simpson, program coordinator.

To learn more about this volunteer opportunity,

call Simpson at 419-734-6833.

Frequently Asked Elder Law Questions Answered Do you or a loved one have questions about estate planning and administration, Medicaid, guardianship or other elder law issues? Mark Lindburg from Legal Aid of Western Ohio provides the following list of frequently asked power of attor-ney questions that may be helpful: Question: Why do I need a Power of Attorney (POA)? Answer: A POA is a document that designates a person to make all your business de-cisions (including yourbanking) and decisions for your welfare, in the event you should

become incapacitated. A full power ofattorney can avoid the need for a guardianship if you should become in-competent either through Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, coma, etc.

Question: Are there different types of POAs? Answer: There are three main types of POAs. First, is the business POA wherein the grantor empowers a trusted person to handle his business affairs. Second, is a Springing POA which is a specific type of business POA. This document empowers someone only after the occurrence of a specific event (such as incapacity of the grantor). Third, is a Healthcare POA which empowers someone to make medical decisions for you if you can’t make them yourself. There are medical POAs for general healthcare and one to deal with a grantor with mental health concerns.

Third, is a Healthcare POA which empowers someone to make medical decisions for you if you can’t make them yourself. There are medical POAs for general healthcare and one to deal with a grantor with mental health concerns.

Question: When I’m admitted to the hospital/nursing home do I have to have the original POA? Answer: It depends on what you need done. With medical POAs, copies are as good as originals and can be used to make medical decisions for you. For business POAs you MUST have the original notarized document for your POA to make financial arrangements for your care. Question: Do POAs expire? Answer: Depends on the type of POA and the language used in the document. Most POAs are durable in na-ture and, therefore, would not expire unless the grantor dies, the grantor revokes it, or a Court revokes it. There are some POAs that by the language in the document set certain durations or names an event, which when and if it occurs would terminate the POA. Question: What if my appointee uses the POA for his own benefit? Answer: There is a fiduciary duty for the person appointed as power of attorney to act in the grantor’s best interest. This concept is codified in the Ohio Revised Code and if such an event happens, the appointee could be guilty of theft, conversion, fraud, etc. For clarification of these answers or for additional information about POAs, contact a lawyer.
