Senior Health

Senior Health services at Mary Greeley Medical Center focuses on improving the quality of life for older adults through education, support, prevention, and counseling.

Appointments are not necessary for the Senior Health Clinics. Medical care screening and options include:

  • Blood pressure checks

Senior Driver Safety Program

Just as teenage drivers have limitations and new skills to learn, older drivers may have changing physical conditions that impact their safety on the road. Mary Greeley Medical Center hosts two annual Senior Driver Safety Programs designed to keep older drivers' skills and knowledge up to date.

Prime Time Alive

Prime Time Alive is a membership program to help those aged 50 and better live well and age well.

Senior Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP)

Health insurance can be confusing for anyone. Issues surrounding Medicare, Medicare supplement insurance, long-term care insurance, and other health insurance can be particularly frustrating. Our Senior Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) counselors can help you navigate these complex programs.
