seniors health
golden opportunities
The alex reduces accessibility barriers for seniors by providing supports that include various complementary on-site services and lab testing. This, combined with the on-site visits conducted by our partner service providers, helps us to provide a comprehensive, wraparound approach to service delivery.
This year, the Seniors Health Centre was expanded to accommodate more clients and services, which has resulted in a cost-savings for Alberta Health and taxpayers alike. Our expansion has allowed us to provide an increased range of chronic disease management support to our clients. We offer special groups for diabetes, pain management, heart disease, smoking cessation and nutrition that have been well received.
To help our senior clients with reducing isolation and mobility issues, our Recreation Therapist offers a variety of activities.
By working together with our clients, seniors find themselves in a better place to improve their quality of life.
