Today, the aging, retired
person makes up a greater
segment of our population
than ever before in history.
This group of people natural
ly has more health problems
than any other age class.
This is due mainly to the fact
that organs and bones have
endured much usage and
need to be treated with care.
This problem has been
recognized and many organi
zations have made efforts to
remedy the situation by
providing special housing
and facilities for these older
persons, bringing these indi
viduals together with people
of their own age group.
Housing these persons toge
ther makes it easier to
employ personnel with spe
cialized training to aid these
aging people with their
health problems.
Great strides have been
made in medicine and health
care. We are proud to be a
part of a profession that aids
humanity. Bring your pre
scriptions to our pharmacy

ice.
