Government Has 68 New Apps for Health/Services

Written by:

Well, someone has been working in the government.  They have just released 68 mobile phone-based apps.  Several of these apps are health-related programs.  These are all free apps so please check them out.  You could download them to your computer or any smartphone.  I checked them out and there are some really practical ones we could all use.  One app tells you about any food recalls so if think you heard something but you’re not sure it applies to your city, then just go to your app.  

There is also an app to locate the closest health center.  So, if  you’re away from home or just in an area you’re not familiar with, and you need help, you can use their information to find one.

There is a Medline app that will answer a huge variety of questions and there’s one you can use at a restaurant and you’re not sure which entree or appetizer is the better choice.

Too many apps to mention them all but go to the site I have just linked for you and look them over.  There are some interesting ones, practical one and some that are just fun.

As always, I’ll do my best to keep us all informed  about anything and everything us babyboomers could benefit from.

Take care.

      We Baby Boomers are certainly a diverse group with many current and upcoming medical issues to include adult incontinence. This is an issue that is quite embarrassing to both the male and female baby boomer. I believe some of the embarrassment of this health issue can be alleviated by the online ordering of these products such as adult diapers, protective underwear, pads and shields. Although we baby boomers were not brought up with computers, we have been forced, if you will, to adapt and learn new skills in order to compete in today’s ever changing job market. We are now quite skilled in the new technologies and can now use those skills to do much of our shopping online. I believe the ordering of incontinence products online is something of great value to this and future generations.
