American Diabetes Association

Senior Healthcare · District of Columbia · Free

Help line 1-800-342-2383 — diabetes management, education, and advocacy. A starting point for caregivers concerned about polypharmacy, untreated depression, or cognitive changes in a loved one. Free clinics typically require an income screening and proof of uninsurance; many serve veterans and immigrants regardless. Falls prevention assessment is now a Medicare-covered benefit — and the single best predictor of independent aging in place. Open at no cost to D.C. seniors and the families supporting them.
