On November 1st, daylight saving time ends, and the clocks fall back an hour. This shift not only gives us an extra hour of much-needed sleep but also serves as a timely reminder to take care of a few things around the house as we approach winter.

So, that said, here is a quick home checklist worth running through as the days get shorter:

✅Turn back any clocks that do not automatically adjust themselves before bed on Saturday night.

✅Test and replace the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. This is one of the easiest ways to keep your household safe heading into winter.

✅Check your outdoor and security lighting. As daylight hours get shorter, having well-lit outdoor spaces can be a key safety step.

Taking care of these small to-do list items can make a real difference in how safe and prepared your home feels all season long.

As always, if there is anything we can assist with, do not hesitate to reach out. We are here to help.

From October 15th through December 7th, Medicare beneficiaries can review their coverage and make changes for 2027 during the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP). During this time, Medicare beneficiaries can:

✅ Switch from Original Medicare to a Medicare Advantage plan, or vice versa.
✅ Change from one Medicare Advantage plan to another.
✅ Add, change, or drop Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage.

This is also a good time to assess whether your current plan still meets your needs. Costs, covered medications, provider networks, pharmacies, and plan benefits can change from year to year, so even if you were happy with your coverage last year, it's worth taking a fresh look.
