  1. 3 Medical Tests That Elderly Must Have Do you care for the elderly at home? Confused about how you can better care for them? And most importantly, do you think they don’t need anything as they don’t ask?

  2. Whether you want to identify their unmet needs or you want to be on top of caring for them, one thing you should do is take a quick approach. This is true of almost every aspect of life- either their daily activities or their occasional interactions. But more than that, when it comes to health needs.

  3. COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING A colonoscopy is a test in which a doctor uses a camera to scan your colon to detect cancerous polyps. A polyp is abnormal tissue growth. After 50 years, you should get a colonoscopy. You should get them more often if you have polyps, or if you have a family history of colorectal cancer. Digital rectal examination can be performed to test any masses in the anal canal. A digital rectum examination only examines the lower part of the rectum, while a colonoscopy examines the entire rectum. Colorectal cancer is most treatable if caught early. However, most cases are not held until they have progressed to advanced stages. DIABETES TESTS The chances of getting diabetes increase with age. In simple terms, diabetes refers to having high levels of glucose in the blood. Did you know that India is already home to 72 million diabetics?
