PLEASE SHARE!!
Making this post for Illinois residents:
I got a flyer in the mail from University of Illinois & Find Food IL for a website that has a map resource of everywhere that accepts SNAP benefits.
This includes grocery stores, food pantries, schools, meal sites, senior food resources, government offices, and the most exciting to me, farmers markets!!! I've never been to a farmers market before because I didn't think they accepted food stamps.
You can look up your city/town & any other surrounding cities/towns that might be accessible to you. Theres a button that I've circled in red that will show a list of all resources in the area you've chosen. You can also search by resource by clicking on one of these icons I've circled in blue (scroll horizontally for more.)
I'm using the mobile site, so on a computer this might look slightly different.
Tumblr media
I would appreciate if, even if you don't live in Illinois, you could share this information. I'm not sure if everyone is aware of it, or if everyone got a flyer for it; I certainly had NO idea and it's really an exciting & life-changing kind of thing to think about being able to get fresh, locally grown food with SNAP.
Obviously, I've yet to actually go & check out my local options, so I'm not sure what the process will be like yet or if there are any limitations. Plus, naturally, everywhere is probably different. However, just to KNOW this exists is important enough to share the information.
The website is:

As someone who has spent a decent amount of time with seniors giving your older loved ones the proper care and support they need is not abandoning them putting your disabled loved one who can’t take care of themselves in a senior living facility, adult family home, skilled nursing facility or any other place designed to help them is not a punishment it doesn’t mean you don’t love them or don’t care Your are helping them trust me and don’t wait till the last minute to make the switch either

Ce post reprend en partie celui de WickedPixxel sur son Patreon, je le traduis et l'illustre avec mes propres captures d'écran pour expliquer le fonctionnement du mod tout en rajoutant ma touche personnelle.
Senior Living par WickedPixxel
MAJ la plus récente : 20.03.2023 | Version actuelle : v1.2 Compatibilité : Jeu de base MAJ de la traduction : 28.05.2023
Ce mod vient améliorer le gameplay de nos Sims seniors ! Il s'agit d'une tranche d'âge que j'aime beaucoup et qui est largement délaissée dans le jeu, ce que je trouve bien dommage. Eh bien grâce à ce mod, on peut enfin donner un peu plus de réalisme aux personnes âgées !
Vidéo de présentation par WickedPixxel : YouTube (anglais)
Fonctionnalités :
Pour débloquer les nouvelles interactions, vous devez ajouter le trait Personne âgée à votre Sim. Il se trouve dans la catégorie Style de vie.
Tumblr media
Cela débloquera le nouveau menu "Personne âgée" sur les autres Sims, ajoutant des interactions uniques et plutôt drôles !
Tumblr media
Dans le menu "Soins aux personnes âgées" sur l'ordinateur, vous pouvez également prendre un rendez-vous chez le médecin si votre Sim se sent patraque ! Cela prend environ une heure et à son retour, une notification vous informera du diagnostic, et pour Louis ce sont de bonnes nouvelles ! A noter que pour l'instant il n'y a pas de multivitamine à acheter dans le menu Pharmacie, mais cela viendra sans doute dans une prochaine mise à jour.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3 pathologies sont ajoutées avec ce mod : l'arthrite, l'incontinence urinaire et la démence. Selon les pathologies dont votre Sim souffrira, de nouvelles interactions seront débloquées, et d'autres seront à l'inverse verrouillées. Par exemple dans le cas de la démence :
Tumblr media
Vos Sims recevront donc aléatoirement des moodlets au fil du temps, et les symptômes pourront être soulagés en achetant certains objets via un ordinateur dans le menu "Soins aux personnes âgées" puis "Pharmacie".
Tumblr media
Ces médicaments ont un certain prix, mais heureusement, acheter un journal permet de détacher des coupons pour les obtenir à prix réduit.
Tumblr media
Ce mod apporte également une nouvelle compétence : la sagesse ! Elle s'améliore grâce aux interactions dans le menu "Sagesse" en discutant avec d'autres Sims. Composée de 5 niveaux, de nouvelles interactions sont débloquées en améliorant la compétence.
Tumblr media
En plus de tout cela, vous pouvez embaucher un(e) aide-soignant(e) à domicile via un ordinateur. Pour ça, il faut cliquer sur "Obtenir des services d'aide à l'autonomie" pour débloquer l'interaction "Embaucher un(e) aide-soignant(e)". Une fois sur place, ce Sim restera quelques heures sur votre terrain, fera du ménage/de la cuisine et vos Sims âgés pourront lui demander de l'aide pour marcher ou pour se laver, ce qui leur donnera un boost d'énergie ou un boost d'hygiène.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Vous pouvez également construire un terrain fonctionnel avec le trait Résidence médicalisée (un terrain de type Générique convient très bien), où vos Sims pourront rencontrer d'autres personnes âgées et où un(e) aide-soignant(e) sera présent(e) en cas de besoin. Par contre, ces Sims finiront par quitter le terrain au bout de 6-8 heures environ, donc il s'agit plutôt d'un accueil de jour que d'une résidence permanente !
Tumblr media
Construction "Nursing Home" dispo sur la galerie - ID Origin : EmmGeeYT
Il y a également d'autres petites activités ajoutées grâce au mod mais je vous laisse explorer !
Traductions incluses au mod :
Aucune traduction n'est incluse pour le moment.
Installation :
Téléchargez le mod sur Patreon et mettez le dans votre dossier Mods, au maximum dans 1 sous-dossier.
Téléchargez ma traduction sur SimFileShare et ajoutez la dans le même dossier que le mod. Ce fichier contient les traductions pour tous les fichiers du mod !
- Le mod : Patreon (en bas de la page) - La traduction : SFS
⚠️ Si le point d'interrogation au début du fichier de la traduction a disparu, pensez à le rajouter pour qu'elle soit bien détectée ⚠️

Ageing India: Unveiling the Social Challenges Faced by Elderly Citizens
Introduction: India, a country with a rich cultural heritage and a rapidly growing population, is currently witnessing a significant demographic shift. The ageing population in India is increasing at an unprecedented rate, bringing forth numerous social challenges for retired individuals and elderly parents. It is imperative to shed light on these issues to create awareness and work towards finding sustainable solutions that ensure the well-being and dignity of our senior citizens.
Financial Insecurity: One of the most pressing concerns faced by the elderly in India is financial insecurity. Many retired individuals lack sufficient savings or pension plans to meet their daily needs, let alone cover medical expenses or unexpected emergencies. This vulnerability highlights the need for comprehensive social security systems and pension reforms that can provide a safety net for our ageing population.
Healthcare Concerns: Access to quality healthcare is another significant challenge faced by older individuals, particularly in rural areas where medical facilities are limited. As health issues become more prevalent with age, the lack of affordable and accessible healthcare services poses a grave risk to the well-being of the elderly. There is a critical need to prioritize geriatric healthcare and establish robust healthcare infrastructure to cater to the specific needs of older citizens.
Loneliness and Isolation: In a rapidly changing society, traditional family structures are evolving, leading to increasing instances of elderly parents living alone or being geographically separated from their adult children. This isolation and loneliness can have severe repercussions on their mental health and overall quality of life. We must focus on building support systems that foster intergenerational connectivity and address the emotional well-being of our elderly citizens.
Elder Abuse Awareness: A distressing reality faced by some elderly individuals in India is the occurrence of elder abuse. Physical, emotional, and financial mistreatment leaves the elderly feeling vulnerable and victimized. It is crucial to create awareness about this issue and establish legal frameworks that protect the rights and dignity of our senior citizens. Additionally, community engagement and education can help prevent elder abuse and encourage a culture of respect and care for the elderly.
Strengthening Social Support: To address the social challenges faced by elderly citizens, we need to strengthen and expand social support systems. Community-based programs, volunteer initiatives, and support groups can provide a sense of belonging and assistance to older individuals. Collaboration between the government, NGOs, and local communities is crucial in ensuring that the elderly have access to support networks that address their unique needs.
Enhancing Retirement Infrastructure: India’s retirement infrastructure is currently inadequate to cater to the needs of the growing elderly population. There is a need for comprehensive retirement planning mechanisms, including affordable housing, assisted living facilities, and geriatric care centers. By investing in infrastructure that promotes ageing with dignity, we can create an environment where older citizens can lead fulfilling lives and receive the care and support they deserve.
Ageism and Age Discrimination: Ageism and age discrimination are pervasive issues faced by older individuals in various aspects of life, including employment, social interactions, and healthcare. Changing societal attitudes and promoting intergenerational understanding can help combat these biases and create an inclusive society that values the contributions of the elderly.
Promoting Active Ageing: Active ageing is a concept that encourages older individuals to lead healthy, engaged, and productive lives. Through physical exercise, lifelong learning, and participation in social activities, older citizens can maintain their physical and mental well-being. It is essential to promote active ageing by creating opportunities for seniors to engage in meaningful activities and have access to lifelong learning programs.
Conclusion: Aumorto offers NRIs a powerful solution to the challenges they face in ensuring the well-being of their aging parents residing in Kolkata. By providing a nurturing environment, trustworthy care, cultural integration, comprehensive medical support and a serene retirement living experience, Aumorto empowers NRIs to offer their parents longer, healthier and more meaningful life. With Aumoto, NRIs can find solace, knowing that their parents are in the hands of a dedicated and compassionate society.

In this blog, we'll delve into what Gainesville has to offer for seniors looking for either independent living, assisted living, or specialized care facilities.
Why Choose Gainesville, GA for Senior Living? Gainesville, often referred to as the "Poultry Capital of the World," is not just a hub for agricultural prowess but also a charming locale for retirees. The city boasts a warm, subtropical climate which is perfect for those who enjoy outdoor activities year-round. Furthermore, its proximity to Lake Lanier and the Northeast Georgia Medical Center makes it an ideal spot for seniors prioritizing leisure and top-tier health care.
Types of Senior Living Facilities in Gainesville:
Independent Living Communities: These facilities are perfect for seniors who are active and largely self-sufficient but wish to live amongst peers for social interaction. Independent living in Gainesville often includes amenities like fitness centers, group outings, and community dinners.
Assisted Living Facilities: For seniors who require daily assistance with tasks like medication management, bathing, and dressing, assisted living provides a balanced environment of support and independence. Gainesville’s assisted living options ensure personalized care that respects the dignity of each resident.
Memory Care Units: Specialized facilities for those with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia are also available. These units provide a secure environment with staff trained in the best practices for memory care.
Nursing Homes: For seniors needing 24-hour medical attention and care, nursing homes in Gainesville offer comprehensive services from skilled nurses and therapists.

Review state and local health and safety records.
Community and Activities: Gainesville is home to vibrant community centers that host senior-friendly activities ranging from yoga classes to book clubs and art workshops. The city’s emphasis on community wellness means that seniors have many opportunities to engage with their surroundings and lead fulfilling lives.
Cost Considerations: The cost of senior living in Gainesville can vary widely based on the type of care and facility. Generally, independent living is less expensive than assisted living or nursing care. It's crucial to discuss pricing and what services are included directly with each facility.
Conclusion: Gainesville, GA, presents a welcoming option for seniors seeking a blend of leisure, community, and care. With its scenic beauty and robust healthcare facilities, it remains a top choice for those exploring senior living solutions.
