“The city’s new web page provides easy to find, at-a-glance information for older adults and caregivers. This is something that our older adults asked for and I am pleased that we are able to provide this resource to help meet their needs, enhance their well-being and improve outcomes.”
According to the city, residents can find information on COVID-19 symptoms and prevention, health and wellness and key emergency contacts.
The web page also provides links to online library services and free online videos, workouts and other resources to help older adults stay healthy while practicing physical distancing.
