INTERACTIVE CARE

A well-nourished senior is more energetic, both physically and mentally.
-
A safe senior lives in an environment that reduces the likelihood of accidents and promotes timely response when illness or accidents occur.
-
Home safety is promoted by the companionship of a caregiver and preventive measures.
