Overcoming Your Bias Against Aging Can Improve Your Life
Becca Levy of Yale University says we can fix even deeply rooted negative views about aging, which many of us do not see in ourselves
Landmark was featured in two stories today in our Portland, OR market.
Both talk about the growing demand for home-based medical care, or house calls. Our current healthcare system cannot keep up with the demands of our most complex patients, those with multiple chronic health conditions. Take a look at the stories below to learn more.
This news segment aired on Koin6, a CBS affiliate station. It follows Dr. Elizabeth Flores, a Landmark provider, into the home of Diana Dow. Diana has dealt with cancer four times and calls Landmark a life saver during those times. Watch the segment.
This article in The Times (serving Tigard, Tualatin, Sherwood), discusses the benefits of high-touch medical care for patients where they reside and when they need it. Whether Landmark patients are in a living facility or home, our providers bring medical care, along with social and behavioral care, to them, even urgent visits. This care can help prevent avoidable visits to the ER or urgent care, as discussed in the article. Read the story.
