We're living longer than ever and staying engaged into our 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s—but how is our health care keeping up? In this week’s episode, new co-host Dr. Kenny Poole chats with three experts from across the industry about the challenges and changes in providing care to our growing senior population, plus how to make sure we’re reaching all older adults so they can live their healthiest life at any age.
