As Mental Health Awareness Month comes to a close, I want to remind you that mental health is an essential part of overall health, and every conversation helps reduce stigma and remind others they are not alone.

Self-care, support systems, education, and seeking help when needed are important to your overall well being. 💚

Osteoporosis awareness doesn’t end when the month does.

Millions of people are affected by bone loss and fractures every year, but education, prevention, and support can make a difference.

Keep asking questions. Keep prioritizing your health. Keep encouraging loved ones to get screened.

Bone health matters every month of the year.

“Bones get more fragile as we age,” she said. “Sometimes all it takes is a minor fall to cause a fracture. And many older adults take blood thinners, which can cause bleeding or bruising.”

At the end of each appointment, Jo Ann Battles’ cardiologist offers a “thought for the day.” Four years ago, it was this tongue-in-cheek advice: “Whatever you do, don’t fall.” Battles didn’t think much about it. At the time, she was still going to the gym four times a week. But now, sh...

In addition to Osteoporosis Awareness month, May is ALSO Mental Health Awareness Month! 🧠 Mental health is as important as physical health.

Untreated mental health disorders in older adults can lead to diminished functioning, substance abuse, poor quality of life, and increased mortality. It is important to talk to your doctor if you have any mental health concerns.
