Health materials for aging population
Taking note of the aging of the American population, ETR Associates took steps to provide health education materials to meet this educational need. This nonprofit publisher of health education materials in Santa Cruz, CA, developed a new series of pamphlets focusing on health promotion topics for older adults.
"In a review of the literature, it has been noted that many problems of old age are not due to aging, but due to lifestyle issues," says Nancy Gonzalez Caro, MPH, patient education specialist at ETR Associates.
