🌟 Thank You, Governor Dunleavy, for Recognizing November as Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month in Alaska! 🌟

Today, we celebrate Governor Dunleavy’s official proclamation declaring November as Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month in Alaska. This important step not only highlights Alzheimer’s disease as a public health priority for our seniors, but also honors the incredible work of family caregivers, many of whom care for loved ones with dementia every day.

Get out and vote today!

Voting is a fundamental right and an important way for long-term care residents to make their voices heard. Residents of skilled nursing homes and assisted living homes, remain valued members of their communities with the same right to participate in the democratic process as any other eligible voter.

The Alaska Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program supports resident choice, dignity, and self-determination, including the right to vote.

Every voice matters. Every vote matters.

Are you a veteran approaching 65…? VA Healthcare, Medicare and TRICARE For Live (TFL) can work together. The right mix depends on your individual needs.
What you need to know:
• Timing matters.
• VA is its own system. There is no enrollment fee for veterans and no bill to Medicare or TFL for care you receive at VA.
• TFL fills the gaps. Once active, TRICARE For Life covers deductibles, copays and extras that Medicare alone does not, such as routine eye exams.
• Access can change over time. Your VA priority, local wait times and health needs may shift. Medicare keeps that door open.
• VA and TFL work together. Enrolling in one does not cancel out the other.

Not enrolled in VA Healthcare yet?
• Apply with VA Form 10-10EZ, using one of these methods:
o Online at http://www.va.gov/health-care/apply-for-health-care-form-10-10ez/introd
o By phone, dialing 877-222-VETS (8387)
o By mail or in person (Bring the completed form to your nearest VA facility)
 If mailing, mail to:
• Health Eligibility Center
P.O. Box 5207
Janesville, WI 53547-5207

If you still have questions, an accredited Veterans Service Organization (VSO) representative, attorney or claims agent can help you navigate VA, Medicare and TFL together, at no cost.
Find one at va.gov/get-help-from-accredited-representative.
This is general information. Eligibility, costs and deadlines depend on your individual circumstances.

October is Residents' Rights Month, a time to honor and empower individuals in long-term care facilities. It’s a month to reflect on these residents’ rights and to respect, protect, and celebrate them. As we highlight these essential rights, it’s also an opportunity to remind everyone that ombudsmen are here to help residents exercise their rights and navigate challenges within long-term care settings.

For questions about your rights living in a long-term care facility, contact our office at 907-334-4480.
