Senior care is medical care for older people. At North Natomas Medical Center, Inc., the team provides comprehensive high-quality health care for adults, but with senior care, they tailor the medical care to meet the unique physical and mental health needs of older adults.
Unfortunately, aging is a significant risk factor for many health problems, such as cardiovascular disease, some neurological diseases, and some cancers. Senior care allows you to minimize your risk factors and manage existing health problems effectively.
Senior care includes the medical care you need to be healthy and live an active and vibrant life. Some of the specific aspects of senior care include:
Almost 80% of seniors have two or more chronic conditions, such as arthritis, diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, or hypertension. If you’re in this group and are enrolled in Medicare, the North Natomas Medical Center, Inc. team may recommend enrolling in chronic care management, a program that includes frequent monitoring and health care.
The North Natomas Medical Center, Inc. team is available whenever you need them for compassionate senior care.
In general, they recommend annual senior wellness exams, along with immediate appointments if you experience illness, injury, or difficulty managing a chronic condition.
The chronic care management program includes 20-minute visits with the team once a month.
Many people transition to senior care at around age 65. At North Natomas Medical Center, Inc., the team adapts your medical care to your needs as you age, so starting at around that age you can expect additional testing and monitoring.
