General Healthcare Tips

Our body is similar to a machine, it needs regular maintenance to keep it running as smoothly as possible. For seniors who are up in age, here are some general maintenance tips that are equivalent to your oil change and tire rotations.

One of the most important tests is your blood pressure and cholesterol screening because keeping these numbers at an ideal range can mean a healthier heart.  It is also important to keep up with your dental and eye exams regularly to maintain a good quality of life.  Furthermore, there are immunization shots that are recommended for seniors under the direction of doctors, such as flu vaccines, pneumonia vaccine, tetanus shot every decade, and more.  Finally, ask your doctors about other health screenings that are appropriate for you to encourage early detection and prevention!
