Staying Healthy So You Can Live Your Best Life
Screenings, steps and tips to help maintain wellness
Looking after your garden. Riding your bike. Playing golf. Spending time with family. If these are the kinds of things you like to do, Medical Mutual wants you to do them – and to keep doing them. We’re on your team. But cheering you on also means encouraging you to take care of yourself.
You can help improve your overall physical and mental health, reduce your risk of falling and maintain proper bladder control by talking to your primary care provider (PCP) about these important topics. We also want you to get any screenings and tests you need to catch problems before they become serious. And there are little things you can do every day that can make a positive impact on your health so you can and live your life the way you want to live it.
- Physical Activity - Regular physical activity is one of the most important things you can do to prevent or delay many of the health problems that can occur with age.
- Falls Prevention - Falling down can cause serious injury that could lead to hospitalization and even a loss of mobility. That’s why it’s important to take steps to prevent it from happening to you.
- Osteoporosis - Osteoporosis is a disease that can cause back pain, height loss and stooped posture. It can also increase your risk of bone fractures.
- Mental Well-being - Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. It has a big impact on your life, affecting how you think, feel, act, and relate to other people.
- Bladder Control - Urinary incontinence can interfere with your day-to-day life which is why it’s important to discuss it with your PCP.
