Dr. Ruiz Holds Virtual Town Hall for Older Americans

May 8, 2020

It is so important that you are armed with accurate, helpful information to reduce anxiety and help you protect yourself and your family from getting sick.

That's why I wanted to make sure you saw this week's virtual town hall, which focused on older Americans and the caretakers and guardians who look after them.

Thank you to everyone who joined in for this discussion with local experts who specialize in taking care of older adults.

I also wanted to make sure you're aware of these local resources to help our community through this time:

Riverside County Office on Aging: Offers assistance with meals, health insurance counseling, resources for caregivers, and more.
AARP Fraud Watch Network: Provides information on how to avoid and report scams.
Jewish Family Services of the Desert: Offers tele-care counseling and community support.
The Joslyn Center: Offers nutrition and food assistance resources.

If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact any of my offices. You can also find out more about resources available to you and your family on my website here.

I hope that you continue to stay safe and healthy, and have a wonderful weekend!

Sincerely,

Raul Ruiz, M.D.
