| Most seniors exhaust their own and their families’ ability to fund care within one year of residence in a nursing home. The simplest way to reduce this ever-increasing financial burden is to delay, and if possible, prevent, the need for expensive care and the loss of independence. The Indianapolis Senior Center’s health and wellness services are either subsidized or free and are geared toward continued quality of life of older adults.
Health and Wellness Services include:
|
|
Nutrition
On-site lunch (Monday-Friday); home-delivered meals, nutrition education through a Registered Dietician; weight management group. |
|
|
|
Health screenings
Annual immunizations (influenza, pneumonia); an average of 27 types of medical tests per year, including screenings for hearing, vision, blood pressure, balance, cholesterol education, diabetes information; community organizations provide resource information.
Podiatry and foot massage services: Monthly by appointment.
