The Check-In: Seniors And Staying Healthy

KBIA
KBIA host Janet Saidi is ready to take calls.

In this episode, we talk about seniors — how to stay safe, keep in touch with family and friends, and stay healthy during this coronavirus pandemic.  We explore what's going on in Missouri's nursing homes and long-term care facilities, the challenges workers and residents face there and what it's like being a senior during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Our guests:

Lori Popejoy, associate professor at MU's Sinclair School of Nursing.

Amy Vogelsmeier, associate professor at MU's Sinclair School of Nursing.

To hear the live show, tune in weekdays at noon. Also, you can leave us a voicemail at 877-532-0971 about how you are handling the isolation during the coronavirus pandemic.
