In honor of ✨National Healthy Aging Month✨ here are 5 healthy aging tips for seniors from your Post Acute Care Providers at Meridian Health Partners: Stay Active with Safe Exercises: Gentle physical activities like walking, stretching, or chair yoga can improve mobility, reduce fall risks, and promote better circulation. Post-acute care patients should follow customized exercise plans to regain strength safely. Maintain a Balanced Diet: A nutrient-rich diet with fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains helps recovery and promotes overall health. Seniors in post-acute care benefit from meal plans tailored to support healing and meet dietary needs. Stay Socially Engaged: Regular interaction with family, friends, and caregivers reduces feelings of isolation and supports mental well-being. Engaging in social activities at post-acute care facilities helps foster emotional health. Manage Medications Effectively: Medication management is crucial in post-acute care to prevent complications and ensure optimal recovery. Keep a detailed medication list and consult healthcare providers regularly to ensure proper dosages and avoid interactions. Focus on Mental Wellness: Addressing mental health is essential for healthy aging. Incorporate relaxation techniques like deep breathing or mindfulness to reduce stress, and seek support from caregivers or therapists to maintain emotional balance. These strategies help promote healthy aging and successful recovery in post-acute care settings. #CenterlineHealthcare #TrumenPhysicians #MeridianPhysicians #HealthcareLeaders #BetterHealthcare #healthcarejobs #seniorcare #healthcareworkers #healthcareprofessionals #postacutecare #healthcareworker #nursinghome #geriatrics #healthcareers #medical #healthcaremanagement #Houston #Dallas #healthcareadministration #healthcarelife #healthcareforall #healthcareheroes #independentliving #assistedliving #skillednursing #longtermcare

Why more of my work is centered on new #community #designs and #improvements. The study published in JAMA adds to existing evidence that isolation is linked to an increased risk for #dementia and #Alzheimer’s disease in elderly people. More broadly, it’s yet another clue in the mounting case that #isolation, #loneliness, and a lack of connection aren’t just personal emotional experiences. In fact, it’s becoming increasingly clear that they are major contributors to an urgent medical and public health threat with profound consequences for society, from substance abuse to suicide to diminishing #life #expectancy in the U.S. What makes the new research notable is that it’s the first to suggest that lifestyle modifications made at an #earlier #age can guard against early manifestation of dementia. Perhaps the larger story is the emerging consensus that loneliness, isolation, and a lack of #human #connection aren’t simply the product of one’s personal demons or social malaise. Rather, they may be the root of disease that requires its own kind of medicine. “The physical health consequences of poor or insufficient connection include a 29% increased risk of heart disease, a 32% increased risk of stroke, and a 50% increased risk of developing dementia for older adults,” its national framework directive, released in May 2023, stated. “Additionally, lacking social connection increases risk of premature death by more than 60%.” The treatment? A common-sense medicine hiding in plain sight, but one that will require serious action to administer, according to federal health officials: human connection. “Social connection is beneficial for individual health and also improves the resilience of our communities. Evidence shows that increased connection can help reduce the risk of serious health conditions such as heart disease, stroke, dementia, and depression,” they wrote. “Communities where residents are more connected with one another fare better on several measures of population health, community safety, community resilience when natural disasters strike, prosperity, and civic engagement.”
