Accessibility - Prevention

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that injuries caused by trips and falls are climbing at an enormous rate. In 2014, the number of deaths from trips and falls almost equaled the number of deaths caused by motor vehicle accidents. The fact is, many of these trips and falls are caused by preventable circumstances.

To reduce the probability of such injuries and potential deaths, some basic precautions can be taken in and out of the home.

Eliminate Hidden Hazards

TRIPS. Many trips and falls are caused by small, preventable items in the home that are, in most cases, simply overlooked. A thorough walk through the home may reveal such items. Throw rugs can be a cause for a trip or fall because many removable rugs can easily slide on a hard surface, or can ball up and create a trip hazard. Electrical cords that are strung across a walking path, or that run along the wall unsecured, can also create a hazard. Eliminating these few items can significantly reduce the number of fall and trip hazards in a home.

FALLS. Two common places for falls are in the bathroom and the bedroom. Bathroom falls can occur in several different areas: tub or shower (tripping and falling), getting on and off the toilet, drying off or dressing. Bedroom falls often occur while getting in and out of bed, dressing or reaching for something in a closet or dresser drawer.

Having sufficient grasping surfaces in the bathroom can aid in preventing falls. There are products available that can add a handsome design element, as well as help to prevent falls in the bathroom. Check out some of the innovative bathroom aids from Savon Medimart, like grab bars and bath/shower benches.

In the bedroom, having sufficient support next to the bed can also help to dramatically reduce falls. A firm, stable surface for sitting while dressing is also vital.  Savon Medimart has an under the mattress bed rail that provides a sturdy grasp for aiding at getting in and out of the bed.

Evaluate the Entire Home - Inside and Outside

Too often, even an awareness of the potential for trips and falls, as well as preparation for aging at home, is incomplete because of an inability to identify all of the common hazards. check online for worksheets or checklists can often help to completely evaluate a home; however, even phone apps are available  to make sure you do not miss anything during an evaluation.

Many trips and falls are caused by external areas of egress in and out of the home. Even in the nicest of weather conditions, the threshold and stairs of house can pose tripping hazards—coming or going—and may cause a fall. Products designed to reduce the trips on steps can very much assist in eliminating falls in a home.  Sufficient hand rail height on stairs and deck railings, stair tread width and depth are important.  When walking on uneven ground and terrain, the assist of a cane or walker/rollator can help prevent falls.

Expect the Expected

As baby boomers age, few like to truly admit that they are getting older and are starting to lose mobility. Studies show, however, that though aging can increase the risk of trips and falls, these occurrences can affect anyone at any age and ability.  Recognizing the potential for trips and falls even from seemingly able-bodied people shows the increased need to develop a safe approach to the prevention of these incidents.

10 Ways to a Beautiful, Accessible Bathroom

A low threshold makes entering the shower easier, and a built-in shower seat is more streamlined than a plastic shower chair.

Plenty of smart seniors and baby boomers are thinking about how to remain in their homes longer, effectively aging-in-place well into their advanced years. They know that remodeling a key functional space such as the bathroom can help make their lives simpler and more comfortable. Increasingly, younger homeowners planning a remodel are also thinking about ways to make the space work better for themselves, their children and their aging parents.
Mention accessible bathroom design, however, and most people think of sterile, hospital-like fixtures and cold, institutional spaces. The good news is accessible bathrooms for people of all ages and abilities can also be beautiful—it is part of a concept known as universal design.
The secret to a successful bathroom is to blend beauty and functionality seamlessly by integrating universal design features into a thoughtful layout. Many of these features can work without having to expand a bathroom’s square footage or move plumbing. Following are 10 ideas for products and design tricks that can help a bathroom meet any need.

1. Visual cues and good lighting

To help with diminished depth perception and weakened eyesight—or for anyone with impaired vision—consider using contrasting colors for key areas such as countertops, showers and toilet zones. Consider adding sconces or other lighting on either side of the vanity mirror to help eliminate shadows and glare. Make sure you have adequate lighting in the shower, and make the most of any natural light.

2. Hand showers with slide bars

A flexible-hose hand shower, mounted on a vertical slide bar and paired with a standard shower head, can be placed low enough to accommodate seated and standing users. Some slide bar models also function as grab bars, a brilliant idea for purists who prefer a pared-down space.

3. Barrier-free shower

A shower with a low or no threshold makes entering the space easy for those who use wheelchairs or walkers. Some designs feature decorative drains at the shower’s edge, blending water removal with a subtle visual cue that helps guide users. Barrier-free shower modules are available in dozens of styles and configurations.

4. Accessible sinks

Wall-mounted and pedestal sinks make use easier for those with mobility devices. The design choices are endless, with classic, modern and transitional styles to suit any space. Installing side-by-side sinks at different counter heights is smart for seated users, as well as couples of different statures.

5. Adjustable or customizable cabinets

A vanity cabinet with a removable base or pocket doors is a great solution for wheelchair users. Cabinets and counters that are wall-mounted on shelf brackets can be adjusted for height or removed to add space for mobility.

6. Lever and pull handles

When it comes to faucets, opt for lever-style models instead of knobs that might be difficult to grip and twist with arthritic or weaker hands. Lever models are easier for children’s small hands, too. Likewise, choose pull-type hardware for drawers and doors.

7. Nonslip floors

Designers agree that matte tile and textured or honed stone such as travertine are better choices for floors than polished surfaces. Aside from better traction, they offer simple maintenance.

8. Grab bars

Today’s grab bar products are designed to look more like traditional towel bars and soap dishes than the institutional-looking products most people are used to.

9. Built-in shower seats

More streamlined and design-friendly than a plastic shower chair, built-in shower seats offer a more comfortable experience for users who have trouble standing. Most models save valuable space by folding up against the wall.

10. Chair-height toilets

Toilets that sit a bit taller, around the height of a standard chair, can work better for people who have knee or back limitations because they don’t require bending or stooping; they can also make transferring to the toilet from a wheelchair smoother and easier. However, these models are not ideal for children or shorter adults. Test a model at a plumbing showroom to see if this style will suit your needs.

Experts agree that whether you include all of these features or pick and choose, the key is to think about your future needs and plan accordingly. For example, younger homeowners might decide they are not ready to install grab bars. But integrating hidden structural changes during a renovation allows you to add features later, such as adding plywood reinforcements behind walls so that you can install grab bars at a later time.

Designing bathrooms with an eye toward the future is a growing trend. As homeowners plan for the needs of their elderly parents and more young people consider how they can get the most out of their remodel in the long term, it’s an investment that pays off—not only daily in added comfort and safety, but also potentially in their home’s resale value, too.

Buy from Savon Medimart for Less

It may be less expensive and more convenient to buy your medical supplies from Savon Medimart.  With changes in Medicare and with private insurance high deductibles and co-pays, you can buy direct from Savon Medimart at far lower prices.  It’s a smart alternative to the hassle and expense of dealing with insurance companies.  Savon Medimart is a sister company of Boardman Medical Supply which has been supplying DME services to the Tri-County area for over 30 years.  

“Large insurance conglomerates control what medical equipment suppliers can charge and what the reimbursement rate will be on our products,” explains Robin Savon Ivany, general manager and second generation owner of Savon Medimart.  “Contracts with insurance companies have forced DME suppliers to charge much higher prices so that the insurance companies can remain competitive.  Savon Medimart has opted to eliminate insurance contracts in order to give the savings back to our customers by drastically reducing prices, thus saving our customers a great deal of money.”

Savon Medimart is focused on helping patients to be able to get the products they need while also paying less than if an item had been submitted to an insurance company.  New Medicare regulations may require Medicare patients to switch to an out of state or out of area DME company that is a contracted Medicare Competitive Bidding Round 2 Recompete provider effective July 1, 2016.  For Medicare patients submitting DME claims, you may not be able to get the same supplies as you are getting now.  These new DME providers may not have the items you want, or the selection.  Call Savon Medimart now to see how to save on your medical supply needs.

Savon Medimart has locations in Girard, Boardman, Warren, and Twinsburg.  For more information call toll free 1-855-545-6685 or visit the website www.savonmedimart.com.

Help Parents with Mobility Issues

For those of us with aging parents who wish to stay in their own home as long as possible—there’s no better peace of mind than knowing they are safe and happy.

To help parents with mobility issues venture out safely and securely, there is a wide selection available of scooters, wheelchairs, lift chairs, walkers, crutches and canes.

Fear of falling is also a major concern for seniors. Accidents in the bathroom are a major cause of injury. Products on the market to make this room as safe as possible include step-in tubs, grab bars, shower benches and raised commodes.

We offer a host of practical solutions to overcome barriers and make home living more manageable. If you’re not sure what Mom or Dad might need, feel free to stop in one of our stores and ask a sales consultant for advice.

Sleep Apnea Leads to Major Health Problems

Savon Medimart's sister company, Safety First Sleep Solutions, can reduce the risk of sleep deprivation related accidents by offering affordable, low cost testing and treatment solutions for sleep apnea with sleep therapy experts available 24/7 to assist with any questions or problems.  SFSS uses a convenient, in-home low cost testing system that enables patients to be tested in the comfort of their homes.  A large component of the program is educating truck drivers, and the industry, on sleep apnea to help them become healthier.

At this time, the program is geared towards truck drivers, but it can be used for any shift workers, factory workers, pilots, bus drivers, railroad engineers or anyone where sleep apnea can cause poor productivity and put themselves and others at a great risk for accidents.  We want to help employees and companies keep the number of employee related accidents to a minimum.

The most important reason for recognizing and treating sleep apnea is to prevent future health incidents such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, impotence, stroke and heart attack.  Treating sleep apnea early in life enhances your future health and longevity.  When we sleep at night our airway is normally open, like a straw, allowing air to easily flow in and out. Oxygen moves through the lung tissue into the blood stream attaching itself to red blood cells.  These cells carry oxygen to your major organs to keep your body healthy and functioning properly.  With sleep apnea, the airway is narrower (snoring is a sign of a narrow airway) and becomes obstructed, causing the exchange of oxygen to not occur correctly.  In untreated sleep apnea, the exchange of oxygen does not occur causing the organs to not be properly oxygenated.

Think of it this way:  Vehicles require oil to keep the engine running properly.  The engine will be destroyed if the oil is dirty and disgusting.  Drivers would never allow this to happen.  The same can be said for oxygen rich blood and organs.  Untreated sleep apnea causes malfunctioning organs which causes many health related issues.  

Robin Ivany, Savon Medimart VP says: “Not only does untreated sleep apnea cause countless accidents, left undetected, it can lead to a plethora of other major health problems.  It just makes tremendous financial sense for companies to be proactive with this health issue.  This condition creates such a tremendous liability for companies, mostly because most people that actually have sleep apnea do not even know they have it.  There are no blood tests, for instance, to detect such a condition.  People are dangerously sleep deprived while they routinely operate vehicles or machinery throughout the day.  This is even a problem for employees that sit at a desk all day.  It is a huge productivity issue.” 

Put Your Insurance Card Back In Your Wallet

What makes Savon Medimart stand out from the rest when it comes to medical equipment and supplies?   SMM is dedicated to selling quality medical grade equipment and supplies to our customers at a discounted rate.  Medical equipment prices are constantly changing because of large insurance conglomerates that control the cost and reimbursement of products.   The majority of DME (durable medical equipment) companies are at the mercy of the insurance companies deciding if they want to cut their reimbursement rate or not.  During the past few years our industry has taken drastic cuts in reimbursement, some in excess of 49%.  Many companies have closed their doors because they can’t cover the cost of the product let alone additional overhead costs.   DME companies are being forced out of business at a drastic rate.  As a business owner, I knew I had to change the way we do business, not only for the livelihood of our business, but for the customers involved.  Customers are dealing with these ramifications on a daily basis.  Many customers are unable to find providers to take on their needs because the population of DME companies has dwindled so drastically over the past few years.  

My plan was to stay in business by changing our model.  We opted for a “no insurance contract model”.   Savon Medimart does not accept insurance payments of any kind and opted to be a cash and carry business.  We accept cash, checks and major credit cards.  Our prices are much lower compared to a DME company who is mandated to charge you higher prices because of insurance contracts.

Insurance companies not only cut our reimbursement but they have also made it almost impossible to get good health insurance coverage without paying an arm and leg.  More and more middle class families are unable to pay insurance premiums and have opted to go to the Marketplace to find more reasonable options.  “Cheaper” is not always better when it comes to insurance.  However, not being able to pay the rent and buy food for your family is not an option either, so off to the market place they trot.  Affordable options, yes, but let’s talk about deductibles.  The average deductible from the Marketplace can ranges anywhere from $3000.00 to $10,000.00.  This insurance will cover your family during a catastrophic event, but most healthy people don’t end up spending up to $10,000.00 on medical bills in a year.  Hence, buying your medical equipment and supplies from Savon Medimart proves to be a better option for individuals with outlandish deductibles.  Why pay more money for coinsurance fees when you can purchase discounted items for much less money out of your pocket. 

Know your insurance options before you hand over your insurance card to purchase your medical equipment and supplies.  Don’t be afraid to ask the right questions.  Know how much your insurance will pay for a product and ask the DME company how much they will be billing for those products.  Once you have the information you need, call Savon Medimart and see how much less you will be spending on the exact same products.  You will end up saving money in the long run.  Also, feel free to submit your own claim to the insurance company so that it can be added to your deductible.  Every penny counts when it comes to insurance deductibles.  Let Savon Medimart not only save you money but educate you on the products that will benefit you and your family. 
Savon Medimart prides itself on taking care of our customers by first making sure they get the products and services they need, but most importantly, at the lowest most affordable rate possible.  Put your insurance card back in your wallet and visit us for all your home medical needs including portable oxygen concentrators, Cpap and BiPap, nebulizers, lift chairs, hospital beds, bathroom safety aids, braces, tens units, ice packs / cold therapy, scooters, wheelchairs and bandage supplies and much more.  Visit one of our three locations in Girard, Twinsburg and Boardman or call us at 855-545-6685.

First Aid Kits

From personal settings to professional offices, a well-stocked first aid kit is a handy thing to have.

Whether buying a kit or making your own, pass the first test of readiness by keeping a first aid kit available in the appropriate nooks and crannies of your life. You should have one in your car, at your office, and in your home. Students should have handy a mini kit for their backpacks.

Stock the kit with emergencies in mind. At minimum, include adhesive bandages, antibiotic ointment, antiseptic wipes, a pair of latex gloves, and a roller bandage along with adhesive cloth tape.

Students can get by with the minimum, which will help to address a scrape or cut. Parents who are on-the-go should consider additional components, like medicine, to round out their first aid kits. Include antihistamines to treat allergies and swelling, pain and fever medicines, anti-nausea medicine for motion sickness, or antacids for an upset stomach. Add calamine lotion to save the day from an unfortunate encounter with poison ivy, and hydrocortisone cream for other types of skin issues. If you are heading out for especially robust activities like hiking or boating, be sure to add lotions with aloe or soy to help soothe any unfortunate sunburns, and stock up on thin, gel bandages that flex with your feet but stay put over late-day blisters.

First aid kits are more than practical—they are personal, so think about the special needs of your everyday life. Even at the office, it quickly becomes apparent to the staff which employee houses a first aid kit that includes ibuprofen or a spare stash of saline solution. You will benefit from having these supplies for your personal needs, while your friends will appreciate your preparedness when they have their own run-ins with a bee sting or a random burn from the office coffee pot.

You can find out more information about first aid kits by calling Savon Medimart 1-855-545-6685.

Good Lighting is Essential for Home Safety but Often Overlooked

Proper Illumination is one of the most important elements in a room. It’s amazing the impact lighting has in our homes and in our lives. It is one of the most important elements in any room, yet it is frequently overlooked. Good lighting can create exciting moods, maximize successful performance of daily tasks and help create a beautiful energy-efficient home. Our ability to see, and therefore remain independent through the years, is compromised by bad lighting.

Good lighting can make the difference between seeing and not seeing especially for seniors—and for millions of people with any form of vision impairment. It can make daily living tasks and activities much easier to perform and provide a safer, accident-free living environment. Good lighting will benefit people of all ages and levels of ability.

Vision deterioration for most adults with good eyesight often begins around age 40. More than 120 million Americans wear corrective lenses. One out of every four children ages 5 to 12 has a vision problem, and more than 92 percent of people ages 70 and above wear glasses. With the aging population in America, nearly 10 million people may have some form of macular degeneration by the year 2030—more than double the 4 million-plus already diagnosed with the disorder.

Seeing is Believing

Home lighting can have a profound effect on quality of life. Proper lighting design can compensate for many age- and health-related changes in the visual system. A 60-year-old needs four to six times as much glare-free light as a normal-sighted 20-year-old to perform the same visual tasks with equal speed, accuracy and safety. Lighting also makes a significant contribution to our physical and psychological well being. Properly designed lighting in homes will significantly reduce the negative effects of the natural physical changes to which we are all subjected as we age, as well as help increase personal independence, promote well-being and prevent injuries.

Lighting Basics

In general, higher levels of energy-efficient, glare-free illumination should be placed throughout the entire house including hallways, stairs and closets. Every area should have good general illumination in addition to task lighting where it’s needed. Natural filtered daylight is a good indirect ambient light source.

The successful development of reasonably priced, high quality LED lighting has become the best source of artificial illumination suitable for residential use, as it successfully converts electricity to light with much greater efficiency than any other lighting, and generates very little heat, resulting in lower cooling costs—an added benefit during summer months. High-quality LED products will produce long-lasting light, which is important for aging-in-place.

Changing burned out light bulbs is time consuming and can be a real danger. The risk of an unintentional fall from a ladder or chair while removing and replacing bulbs is dramatically reduced or eliminated by switching to long-life LED lighting. Incandescent bulbs last about 750 hours, halogens about 2,000, compact fluorescent about 8,000 and full-size rapid start electronic ballast fluorescent around 11,000 hours. However, LED lamped or powered light fixtures will last for 45,000 hours or more.

Cool operation and substantial energy savings are other excellent reasons to use LED fixtures and lamps whenever possible. Because there are a large amount of substandard imported LED lighting products on the market, it is wise to market only quality products produced by reputable manufacturers such as Philips, Cree, Osram-Sylvania, GE and Progress Lighting. These brands are often better made than many other imported types, and will most certainly provide long-lasting trouble-free life. Select LED lamps in the 3,000 kelvin color temperature, which enhances natural skin tones and works great in residential living environments.

You should evaluate every room or area in the home for a combination of good general illumination in addition to specific task lighting, including the kitchen, bathroom, living room and bedrooms. Natural indirect or filtered daylight is a good source for supplemental general light. Ceilings should have good overall illumination with no shadows.

The way our homes are lit makes a difference in so many areas, but it is imperative that safe, reliable illumination be in place in order for seniors to age at home without risk. The good news is that this is possible without sacrificing performance or design.

The Freemie® breast pump system allows double pumping while keeping your shirt on.

Savon Medimart will soon have the “Freemie” available in stores.  The Freemie® is a new breast pump system which effectively allows a woman to pump breast milk without taking her shirt off. Moms working hard to provide breast milk for their babies know that two of the biggest impediments to pumping are finding the time and an acceptable place.  Dan Garbez, co-founder of Dao Health, the California company that developed the Freemie system, points out the obvious, “We do have the only viable breast pump system that does not require a woman to take her clothes off to use it.  At the heart of the Freemie pumping system are cup-shaped devices with specially integrated breast funnels. The old horns and milk bottles are no more. The Freemie cups fit inside a woman’s regular bra, connect to her breast pump for suction, and collect her milk in the cups – right there inside her bra, underneath her clothes.

The Freemie system is the brainchild of Garbez’s wife, Stella Dao, an emergency physician who delivered the couple’s twins prematurely. Dr. Dao was dependent on a pump for several months to help her make the milk her 3 pound preemies so desperately needed. “I could not use the equipment that was available at that time and go back to work in an emergency room. Having to undress and find a private room in such a chaotic place, and be unavailable to nurses and patients was - to put it kindly - completely impractical,” said Dr. Dao. After developing the concept, the couple then recruited a world class team of medical device and startup professionals to perfect the idea and bring it to the world.

The cups have to be big enough to hold the milk, and to accommodate a breast funnel in order to be effective at extracting milk. But for the user, the Freemie cups and her milk are secure in her bra, and she can keep her shirt on. With the right attire, many women are able to pump in public environments, and nobody’s the wiser. Since the concept is so new to a mass audience, the company believes it is important to help potential customers visualize this new style of pumping. You can view the system online at http://www.savonmedimart.com/freemie.html
 
The Freemie® cups are available with a quiet electric pump (Freemie Freedom) and the world’s only concealable, one-handed, double manual pump (Freemie Equality). But the biggest surprise - in a market where almost every company’s pump and milk collection systems are proprietary, and not interchangeable - is that these revolutionary collection cups are compatible with the most popular pumps on the market. Garbez said, “A lot of companies make a pretty decent vacuum pump that will extract breast milk. It’s pretty basic technology, and has been in use for more than a century. It doesn’t need to get too complicated. What was missing was a modern user interface.
Many women also seem surprised that they found the Freemie cups more comfortable than their old pump equipment. They collect and hold the milk right around the breast, secure in a woman’s bra, just as her breast is supported by that bra. The center of gravity that her bra is supporting barely moves as the milk collects, so the shifting weight of her milk is insignificant. Dr. Dao is quick to point out that pumping is a very personal endeavor, and the company is only providing one set of tools among dozens in the market for customers to choose from. “Mom still has to do all the work. And some women have routines or habits or other needs that may require a different set of tools than the hands free tools we’re focused on.  But for the vast majority of women around the world and across cultures, where electrical power may or may not be available, or where cultural norms require modesty, pumping can be a whole lot easier. We are helping thousands of moms meet their breastfeeding goals who couldn’t continue lactation without us. Soon, we will be helping millions. It’s humbling. But it’s also exciting!”
