Keeping them safe and healthy goes beyond physical care—it’s about protection from harmful illnesses. Getting vaccinated is a crucial step in this journey. Stay up to date with your flu shot and other recommended vaccines to prevent the transmission of illnesses that can be dangerous to older adults. Be the advocate they need. Get vaccinated today!

When I was two years old, my mother passed away, and my father wasn't in my life. My grandmother, in her fifties, took care of me and my younger brother. My grandmother is my best friend and my superhero. But as I'm aging, she's aging too, and I've realized even superheroes need help. As a nurse practitioner and scientist, I've seen firsthand the importance of paying attention to the health of our older loved ones. If you notice changes in their thinking, personality, or memory, it might be time to seek professional help. Matthew Walker Comprehensive Health Center is here for you and your family. We provide the resources and support you need to navigate this journey. Schedule an appointment today and take the first step towards comprehensive care. 🩺✨ #HealthcareHeroes #AlzheimersAwareness #SeniorCare #MatthewWalkerHealth #FamilyFirst #CommunitySupport #DementiaAwareness
