Geriatric Care / Medicare Wellness

Prioritizing the Health and Well-being of Older Adults

Geriatric care focuses on addressing the unique healthcare needs of older adults. It involves comprehensive assessments, specialized treatment plans, and ongoing management to promote healthy aging and improve the quality of life for seniors.

Medicare wellness visits are preventive health visits covered by Medicare for individuals aged 65 and older. These visits, known as Annual Wellness Visits (AWVs), allow healthcare providers to develop personalized prevention plans and promote overall wellness.

During a Medicare wellness visit, healthcare professionals at Greenleaf Medical in Park City, IL, may typically:

Review medical history

Assess current health status

Discuss preventive services

The provider will discuss and recommend preventive screenings, vaccinations, and other services appropriate for the patient’s age and health status. This may include screenings for conditions such as cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, or cardiovascular disease.

Develop a personalized prevention plan
