Publication of Final Rule – Change in Terminology: “Mental Retardation” to “Intellectual Disability”

USA FLAG

Blog contributor: Professional Secure Assistance. Contact David Hampton 203-630-0864

The following is a message from SSA:

“We are writing to advise you that we published a final rule in the Federal Register on August 1, 2013 at 78 FR 46499 to change the term “Mental Retardation” to “Intellectual Disability” in SSA regulations. The electronic version of the Final Rule is available in the Federal Register.

The final rule adopts, without change, the notice of proposed rule-making we published in the Federal Register on January 28, 2013 at 78 FR 5755. We are replacing the term “mental retardation” with “intellectual disability” in our Listing of Impairments that we use to evaluate claims involving mental disorders in adults and children under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act and in other appropriate sections of our rules. This change reflects the widespread adoption of the term “intellectual disability” by Congress, government agencies, and various public and private organizations.”

August is National Psoriasis Awareness Month

NationalPsoriasasFoundation

InBusinessLinks Network members, and followers of Golden Horizons (1-800-421-0122), can review a variety of information about psoriasis on the Golden Horizons’ city/local/topic blogs. For a complete list of our blogs, see “Psoriasis- Related Links”.

Psoriasis seems to be an unfamiliar disease to many people. I didn’t know about it until someone close to me developed it. At first I thought it was just a chronic skin disorder. It is, but in doing more research, I learned that it is much more.

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease. It develops when the immune system transmits false messages throughout the body that accelerates the frequency of skin cell production. It most often appears as red elevated, scaly/scabby splotches on various places across the body. It can be accompanied by pain and itchiness. There are five main types of psoriasis: plaque psoriasis, guttate psoriasis, inverse psoriasis, postular psoriasis and erythrodermic psoriasis. Plaque psoriasis is the most common. Continue reading

July – National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month

Our country have so many national months, weeks and days. Some are very relevant, some make you scratch your head in puzzlement and some are downright bizarre. July alone has yielded an interesting mix ranging from National Tickling Month to National Culinary Arts Month to National Cleft & Craniofacial Awareness & Prevention Month.

Picture

For this July, we at Golden Horizons want to focus on a couple particular National Months/Days of awareness: National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month. It is very important to be aware of types of cancer, testing options and preventative measures that you can take to assure you don’t have an issue. Too many people pass because of improper testing.

July – National Bladder Cancer Awareness Month
Our bladder is a part of the urinary tract, the body’s filtration system. The bladder is lined with layers of tissue and cells. Bladder cancer is when the cells begin to grow out of control. As it goes through the layers back to the wall of the bladder, it is harder to treat and eradicate. Contributing factors include genetics – Caucasians are at higher risk, smoking, age etc. With July being National Cancer Awareness Month, we at Golden Horizons (1-800-421-0122) want to contribute to creating that awareness. For more information, please visit the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network’s website. Awareness is a good thing.

Golden Horizons’ Tips for Good BBQing

Hamburger
Last weekend was Memorial Day Weekend, the traditional start to American Summer time and barbecue season. In keeping with healthy eating with great-tasting recipes, we explored a twist on the pulled pork… Pulled chicken: Barbecue Pulled Chicken (from EatingWell Magazine-  February/March 2006, July/August 2012). This BBQ pulled chicken recipe is a fanciful reinterpretation of pulled pork that slow-cooks chicken in lots of tangy tomato sauce. Have sliced jalapenos, sliced red onions and some sour cream on hand to top this barbecue pulled chicken, which makes a hearty main course. You can turn it into an unbelievable sandwich or serve it on mashed potatoes or even whole-grain spaghetti. Serve with shredded napa cabbage tossed with low-fat mayonnaise, cider vinegar, celery seed and honey to taste. To get the receipt go to the Golden Horizons’ Tips-Blog at: www.goldenhorizonseldercare.com/tips-blog.html
