You may find yourself with one or more long-term health conditions if you\u2019re like most older adults. In fact, more than half of seniors age 65 and up are managing three or more health problems. These conditions include:<\/span><\/p>\n Geriatric care is medical diagnosis and treatment to enhance your quality of life as you live with ongoing health conditions that come with aging.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n You\u2019re more prone to certain ailments with each passing year. Geriatric care is essential to maintaining your good health, particularly if you have one or more chronic conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n Here are several of the most common health conditions treated by geriatric care.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Half of adults over age 65 have arthritis, which often causes ongoing pain and can damage your quality of life without proper care.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n More than one-third of men and a quarter of women age 65 and older have heart disease. Making lifestyle changes, such as eating a healthy diet and exercising, gives you a great chance of enjoying a full life with this condition.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The risk of cancer increases with age, but early detection is key! Preventive screenings like skin checks, mammograms, and colonoscopies can find cancer early, when it\u2019s most treatable.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Conditions affecting your breathing, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis, and asthma, are common among older adults. Getting tests of your lung functioning and taking the proper medications helps you live a full, active life despite these conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Don\u2019t let diabetes slow you down! Nearly a quarter of adults over 65 have diabetes, but you can manage it effectively with Dominion Family Healthcare. Our team will guide you through routine monitoring, help you create a healthy eating plan, and support your exercise goals.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n At Dominion Family Health, your doctor designs a treatment plan to enhance your quality of life as you age. Together, you explore all treatment avenues. If you have a chronic condition, this may include medications to manage your symptoms so you can do all of the activities you love.<\/span><\/p>\n Depending on your condition, your doctor may want to see you regularly to monitor your vital signs, such as your blood pressure and pulse. You may need routine checks of your blood sugar levels, cholesterol, and other key benchmarks of health.<\/span><\/p>\n Geriatric care is designed to promote a full, healthy life.
