What To Do For Senior Health is a soft cover, easy-to-hold book written specifically for those approaching their senior years, and their caregivers. In each section of this self-help book, seniors and their families and caregivers will find practical suggestions for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.  Topics discussed include the concerns of advancing age, Medicare, medicines, medical care, nutrition, exercise, common body changes and health problems.  Positive mental health and safety tips round out the content making this book a comprehensive guide.  It is easy to see and effortless to read with short, action-oriented sentences, large size type, and sufficient white space. Material is organized with each subject to answer these questions:

  • What is it?
  • What do I need to know?
  • What can I do for myself?
  • When do I call the doctor or nurse?

Topics can be readily located with the use of a table of contents (What's in This Book) or the index (What's in This Book from A to Z).  A Word List (glossary) in the back of the book gives simple definitions to unfamiliar words.
