A+ Aging Advantage is a private geriatric care management company serving older adults
and individuals with disabilities in the St. Louis area.

A+ Aging Advantage is a private geriatric care management company serving older adults and individuals with disabilities in the St. Louis area since 2006. We provide professional care management and ongoing concierge monitoring services that can increase or decrease as needs change. Many clients begin services during a health event or family concern and later transition to ongoing support that includes regular check-ins, appointment accompaniment, assistance with meals or errands, and communication with out-of-town family members. If a client experiences a hospitalization or decline, services can immediately expand to include care coordination and medical advocacy — without introducing new providers. Our approach allows clients to remain safely in their homes while ensuring professional support
is already in place should a crisis occur. A+ Aging Advantage

BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE, ASK:

Before your next medical appointment, bring:
✔️ Current medication list
✔️ Vitamins and supplements
✔️ List of questions
✔️ Recent symptoms or changes
✔️ Family medical history
✔️ Previous test results if needed
✔️ Insurance information
✔️ A trusted family member or caregiver, if helpful
And don't be afraid to ask: “Can you explain that again?”
Good healthcare includes good communication.

Bone health becomes increasingly important as we age.
A fall that might once have resulted in a bruise can become a serious health event when bones are fragile.
Talk with your healthcare provider about:
• Bone density testing
• Fall prevention
• Calcium and vitamin D
• Physical activity
• Medications that may affect bone health
Prevention isn't just about preventing disease. It's also about protecting independence.

Not everyone needs lung cancer screening—but some people at higher risk do.
The USPSTF recommends annual low-dose CT screening for adults 50–80 who have a significant smoking history, currently smoke or quit within the last 15 years.
If that sounds like you or someone you love: don't assume screening isn't necessary.
Ask.

Colorectal cancer screening can do something especially important: some screening tests can find precancerous polyps before they become cancer.
The CDC recommends regular colorectal cancer screening beginning at age 45 for people at average risk.
And here's something many people don't realize: You may have screening options that don't require a colonoscopy.
Talk with your healthcare provider about which option is appropriate for you.

You remember Mom's appointments. Dad's medications. The specialist's follow-up. The lab work. The prescription refill. The transportation.
But who's keeping track of your health?
Caregivers can become so focused on someone else's needs that their own preventive care gets pushed to the bottom of the list.
Today, put one appointment for yourself on the calendar.
A wellness visit. A screening. A dental appointment. A mammogram. A vision check.
Whatever you've been putting off. Caring for yourself isn't selfish.
It helps you keep caring for others.

1. When should I have my next mammogram?
2.Does my family history change my risk?
3.Do I have dense breasts, and does that affect my screening?
4.Have I had any previous breast abnormalities that affect my screening plan?
5.What changes should I report to my healthcare provider?

Bring your questions to your next appointment.
The USPSTF notes that its average-risk recommendation does not apply to people with certain high-risk genetic conditions, prior breast cancer, prior high-dose chest radiation, or certain high-risk breast lesions

Breast Cancer Awareness Month gives us an opportunity to talk about something that can be easy to put off: screening.
The USPSTF recommends that women ages 40–74 at average risk receive a screening mammogram every other year. For women 75 and older, the evidence is not sufficient for the USPSTF to make a general recommendation, so conversations with a healthcare provider become especially important. (USPSTF)
Your age isn't the only thing that matters.
Your personal history, family history, risk factors and previous screening results matter, too.
Don't guess your screening schedule. Ask your healthcare provider.
🩷 Schedule the conversation.

❤️ Heart & Diabetes: Ask your provider which blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes screenings are appropriate for you.
Educational information only. Screening recommendations vary based on individual health history and risk factors. Talk with your healthcare provider about what is right for you.
