Last Wednesday, Mature Driver Program, in partnership with Kiara from Dell Seton Medical Center, and Monique and Pete from Texas Department of Transportation - Austin District, hosted a CarFit Event at Westminster in Austin. 22 residents received an individualized CarFit check-up in their personal vehicle to improve their safety and overall driving comfort. Additionally, 12 new technicians got trained in the Austin-area last week, enabling them to help even more seniors stay safe. Remember to always check that your vehicle is adjusted properly for YOU every time you get behind the wheel!

Last Friday Pamela traveled to Comfort, TX to attend the Health and Safety Fair at Comfort Golden Age Center. During the day she had the opportunity to interact with many seniors who had attended the CarFit event almost 2 years ago and are still talking about it! Those seniors are still buckling up every time, just like you should!

"10-4, Good Buddy". Do you remember using a CB Radio? The term "10-4" was lingo for Message Received, understood or "OK", and we hope you are doing more than OK today!

The next time you are on the road, be sure to leave 3 to 4 seconds following distance for our 18 wheeler friends so we all have enough space to brake and stop if needed.

Thank you to St. Joseph Health Grimes Hospital for hosting!

Coffee Break time? It is National Coffee Day and we encourage a good Coffee Break!

Coffee breaks can improve mental health by providing a time to reset, reduce stress and provide social connection. This social bonding, especially for Mature Drivers, is a great way to lower anxiety and fatigue, while providing a mindful pause in your day.

Where is your favorite place to grab a cup of joe? Whether at home, work, or out and about, we hope your next cup is delicious!

Buckle up and Be the Driver of your own Healthy Aging Journey.
