If there's shaking when you're driving, slowly pull over to the side of the road. Avoid overpasses, bridges, telephone poles, and other hazards that might fall. Once in a safe place, set your parking brake and wait for shaking to stop. Instructional video: https://youtu.be/bxLhFTe7_M0

Here's some good advice.

Thank you, Jet Signs!

A warning from Medicare: Scammers may use COVID-19 as an opportunity to steal your identity and commit Medicare fraud. In some cases, they might tell you they'll send you a Coronavirus test, masks, or other items in exchange for your Medicare number or personal information. Be wary of unsolicited requests for your Medicare number or other personal information. It's important to always guard your Medicare card like a credit card and check your Medicare claims summary forms for errors. Only give your Medicare number to participating Medicare pharmacists, primary and specialty care doctors or people you trust to work with Medicare on your behalf. Remember, Medicare will never call you to ask for or check your Medicare number. For more information on protecting yourself from fraud and reporting suspected fraud, visit Medicare.gov/fraud.

During these challenging times we at Lincoln Glen want to reach out to you with as much information as we can. For the protection of our residents we are restricting visitors for the time being, but welcome your calls to your loved ones, as well as FaceTime, Skype, etc. to keep in touch. As the weather gets nicer you might want to consider window visits. We're attaching a City of San Jose link that contains helpful information on resources available. As always, please give us a call if you have any questions or concerns. https://www.sanjoseca.gov///mayor-s-office/san-jose-strong

We're all better off if we're prepared.

Here's another tip to help you prepare. Have a great weekend!

Are you prepared for the next disaster?

"Capture the Moment" is the theme of this year's National Assisted Living Week, created in 1995 by the National Center for Assisted Living.

It's National Disaster Preparedness Month. Persons with dementia may require additional assistance and consideration during a disaster situation. The Calm Before the Storm: Family Conversations about Disaster Planning, Caregiving, Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia developed by the Hartford Center for Mature Market Excellence is a free downloadable publication that covers many aspects of caring for a loved one during and after a disaster.

Are you prepared for an earthquake? Join us as we get ready for the Great ShakeOut in October.

We are excited to join the Carry the Conversation campaign, which empowers millennials to speak out on the need for long-term services and supports financing options. Learn how you can join the movement at carrytheconvo.org @leadingage #CarryTheConvo
