Celebrating Senior Citizens Day - August 21

Every August 21st, we celebrate Senior Citizens Day—a time to honor the invaluable contributions, experiences, and wisdom of the older adults in our lives and communities.

 

Whether you’re a senior yourself or you’re caring for aging parents or grandparents, this day is a great reminder to reflect, reconnect, and refresh the resources that support healthy, happy aging.

 

 

💛 Why We Celebrate

 

President Ronald Reagan established National Senior Citizens Day in 1988 to recognize the achievements and importance of older Americans. From mentoring younger generations to volunteering, caregiving, and leading in faith and family—seniors enrich our communities in countless ways.

 

At SC Health Insurance, we believe honoring seniors also means helping them stay informed and empowered—especially when it comes to their health care.

 

 

🩺 Key Health Topics for Seniors

 

If you’re 65+ or nearing Medicare age, here are a few essentials to keep in mind:

 

 

 

Understanding Medicare Options

 

Turning 65 opens the door to Medicare—but the choices can feel overwhelming.

We can help you navigate:

 

  • Original Medicare vs. Medicare Advantage
  • Supplemental (Medigap) plans
  • Prescription drug coverage (Part D)
  • Dental, vision, and hearing add-ons

 

 

Preventive Care Matters

 

Annual wellness visits, screenings, vaccinations, and mental health support are all essential for healthy aging—and many are fully covered under Medicare.

 

 

Long-Term Care Planning

 

It’s never too early (or too late) to explore long-term care options, including assisted living, in-home care, and affordable insurance add-ons for peace of mind.

 

 

Support for Caregivers

 

If you’re helping a loved one manage appointments, medications, or insurance paperwork—we’re here to guide you, too.
