A Permanent Hair-Loss Solution

Natural-looking hair transplant results are possible today thanks to advancements in the procedure, with improvements including placing a few healthy hairs at a time and creating a more natural-looking hairline. Men and women are both good candidates for hair transplants, provided they have enough healthy hair on their scalp that can be transplanted and have the ability to grow hair on the thinning area of the scalp. Most transplants take between four and eight hours and only require anesthesia that numbs the scalp. Results can typically be seen between six and nine months after surgery, or sometimes 12 months.

Better Mobility, Increased Independence

Using a walker can extend a senior’s ability to maintain their independence and can help them continue to live a healthy and active lifestyle. However, sometimes this can be a hard decision to face. If you or a senior loved one are experiencing shortness of breath when walking short distances, having difficulty bearing weight on the legs, needing to rest frequently when walking, noticing trouble with balance, or having difficulty walking up a short flight of stairs, it might be time to consider a walker. Don’t wait until something drastic has happened to experience the benefits of using a walker!

Reducing Senior Hospitalization

Professionals who work with seniors often observe that older adults who are hospitalized don’t always go home the same. Or they don’t go home at all. Research conducted by Home Instead, Inc., revealed these five preventative actions that could help keep an older adult out of the hospital: 1) Work with a trusted medical practitioner 2) Don’t ignore symptoms 3) Reduce risks of falls and accidents 4) Stay active physically and mentally 5) Maintain a healthy diet. Perhaps you are concerned about these issues for yourself or for someone you care for. We help seniors stay safe at home. Have questions? Let’s talk. 306-931-4663

Is Your Retirement Plan Complete?

Are pre-arranged funeral arrangements missing from your retirement plan? Here are three reasons to make pre-arranged plans that fit your personality and values, no matter how your lifestyle changes in the years to come: 1. Life insurance does not cover the cost of funerals. Planning helps pay for the full cost before your death. 2. Funeral planning is part of your legacy for your children. With planning, you have peace of mind knowing that your children are protected from certain monetary pressures. 3. Inflation affects lifestyle and funeral plans. We are here to help. Visit our website today and book a spot in one of our free preplanning seminars.
