Senior Primary Care Designed for Life After 65
As we age, our health needs become more complex. Our health journeys shift and change, often requiring more frequent office visits or more individualized care. That’s why specialized senior primary care can make such a meaningful difference.
Many older adults manage chronic conditions that require multiple medications and lifestyle changes, and lasting changes are easier to achieve with a supportive health care team. Senior adults 65 and older also often have more to discuss with their provider, from medication side effects to new symptoms, and they benefit from more time during a visit.
We designed AdventHealth Well 65+ senior primary care specifically for adults 65 and older, offering personalized, whole-person care that supports physical, emotional and social well-being.
What Is Senior Primary Care?
Primary care for seniors focuses on helping older adults stay healthy, active and independent with an emphasis on prevention, chronic condition management, mobility, mental well-being and overall quality of life.
Senior primary care providers understand the unique health challenges that come with aging. They take time to build relationships with patients, coordinate care across specialties and create tailored plans that support long-term wellness.
Why Senior Primary Care Matters
At AdventHealth Well 65+, we believe health care is about more than treating symptoms. We care for the whole person in body, mind and spirit.
For many older adults, managing health can mean juggling a variety of doctor visits, medications and life transitions. We offer longer office visits, a coordinated care team and proactive support that helps patients stay healthier longer. We believe that the time you spend with your doctor should leave you feeling informed and cared for, like family.
We also understand that seniors need to be in community with others. Loneliness and social isolation can negatively impact your physical and mental health. Our Community Engagement and Social Work teams host events like lunch-and-learns and group exercise classes to support you in mind and body.
Our multi-faceted approach to health considers every part of your well-being, from your physical and emotional wellness to social connection, nutrition and your lifestyle. By identifying potential concerns early and supporting healthy habits, senior primary care helps people not only live longer, but live better.
