What the Certification Means

The Healthy Senior Living certification is an assurance that the facility has been vetted and recognized by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ based on professional evaluation criteria designed by cardiac and geriatric experts. Facilities will be evaluated on how they educate residents and provide opportunities to work toward improved health in these categories: smoking status, physical activity, healthy diet and weight, depression and anxiety, sleep, stress management, alcohol consumption and immunizations.
