Are You Aging Well? The spotlighted dimension this
month is Vocational/Financial Wellness. Friday, September 9 at 11
a.m. at the Wood County Senior Center.
Financial wellness is not centered on specific financial products, but
on solutions. Financial planning extends beyond investments and
should include all factors that can impact your financial situation. A
thorough financial plan needs to consider a variety of issues.
Explore the checkpoints of financial wellness from Jeff Bucher, by
considering the impact of your financial decisions across all of these
areas, to help remove any unnecessary risk, prevent costly mistakes,
and help you efficiently reach your goals.
Jeff Bucher co-founded Citizen Advisory Group, an investment firm
specializing in retirement. Currently, Jeff is a top 5 national finalist
for Advisor of the Year for Retirement Advisor Magazine. Jeff is a
lifelong resident of northwest Ohio, is married with 2 children and
resides in Perrysburg.

Preparing for Flu Season 2016
Influenza (flu) is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It can cause mild to severe
illness. The CDC (Center for Disease Control) recommends a yearly flu vaccine for everyone 6 months and
older. Flu vaccination can reduce flu illness, doctors’ visits and missed work and school, as well as prevent
flu-related hospitalizations. According to CDC and NIH (National Institute of Health) people 65 and older
account for more than 60% of all reported hospitalizations and 90% of deaths related to the flu.
Signs & Symptoms
Fever* or feeling feverish/chills
Cough
Sore throat
Runny or stuffy nose
Muscle or body aches
Headaches
Vomiting or diarrhea, more common in children than adults.
*It’s important to note that not everyone with the flu will have a fever!
Flu Etiquette and Tips:
 Get your flu shot! Available at your doctor’s office, local pharmacy and health department.
 Sneeze or cough into your elbow, sleeve or a tissue - not your hand. If using a tissue, THROW it away
after using it. A stored tissue will keep germs alive for 2 hours.
 Wash or sanitize your hands frequently - even though colds and flu are viral it is crucial to avoid getting
sick.
 Stay away from work and social functions - think of all the people that you could infect & the loss of
productivity that it could entail.
 Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth - also excuse yourself from shaking hands if you’re sick or
just getting over the flu.
 Clean & disinfect frequently touched surfaces at home, work or school - especially when someone is ill!

Volunteer Views
Another Wood County Fair is in the record books;
the Black Swamp Arts Festival is looming; and we are
looking for volunteers in North Baltimore, Wayne,
Pemberville, Rossford, Walbridge, Perrysburg, and
Bowling Green!
By the end of this month, we will be inundated
with requests from students, but there is more need for
the Seniors, themselves, to volunteer. Your wealth of
experience can help each of our Senior Center sites
flourish. Don’t be afraid to set up a jigsaw puzzle
corner at your site. Great conversations can take place
while great friends – or new friends – try to find that
special puzzle piece! Like to knit or crochet? Find
others and create a day and time where you can all
make ―chemo caps‖ or ―preemie hats‖ and donate
them! Need more ideas? Give me a call!
See, you don’t have to just deliver meals or be a
Governing Board member! If you have time that you
would like to put to use helping, participating, being a
friend to others, we can find an opportunity to put your
skills to use. Contact me and let’s talk!
If you have any questions, please give Jackie Metz,
Volunteer Coordinator, a call at 419.353.5661, or
