CDC Older Adult Health

Senior Healthcare · Iowa · Free

CDC's resources on healthy aging, vaccines, falls prevention, and chronic disease. Worth contacting for adults 65+ without a primary care doctor, or those whose current doctor doesn't specialize in older adults. Geriatricians focus on the whole-person picture — medications, falls, cognition, hearing, vision, mood, and function. Falls prevention assessment is now a Medicare-covered benefit — and the single best predictor of independent aging in place. Free service; donations support but never gate access.
