Courage. Sacrifice. Resilience. Our military show us every day what it means to serve.

At Flagship Health, we understand this calling deeply. Our primary care practice is founded by veterans, led by veteran providers, and serves veterans.

We know from experience that service doesn’t end when the uniform comes off. That’s why we’re proud to provide care that respects each veteran’s story and supports their individual health.

To all who served, and the families that stand beside them, we extend our heartfelt gratitude. It’s an honor to serve you. 💙

For every generation, vaccines work. That includes you, our amazing senior community!

As we get older, our immune systems need a little extra support. Vaccines are one of the simplest, most powerful things you can do to stay healthy, independent, and feeling your best.

Dr. Moran recommends these key vaccines for adults 65+:
✅ Flu shot (high-dose) — every fall
✅ COVID-19 booster — annually
✅ Shingles — 2 doses
✅ Pneumococcal (PCV20) — usually a one-time dose
✅ Tdap/Td booster — every 10 years
✅ RSV vaccine — ask your provider if it's right for you

Most of these are covered at little or no cost through Medicare Part B or Part D.

See what other vaccines you should consider on our blog: https://flagshiphealth.org/resources/blog/staying-protected-vaccination-recommendations-for-seniors/

Discover the most important vaccines for seniors to prevent illness and stay healthy. Learn which shots are recommended, when to get them, what they protect against, and how Medicare covers vaccine costs. Written by Dr. Aldo Moran of Flagship Health.
