Health Care
Preventive Health Care for the Aging (PHCA)
You have a Doctor...But do you have a Nurse?
Preventive Health Care for the Aging (PHCA) services are now up and running at The Center at Founders Village, Senior and Community Center. PHCA is a state and county funded program that offers free health assessment for those over 55 years old. The complete assessment takes about an hour and will include a health history, 24 hour nutrition recall, pulse, blood pressure, height, and weight. No medical treatment is provided but a referral to a doctor may be given for a major health problem. A care plan is devised between the client and nurse for suggested action. Other assessments also offered are: vision, urine, hemoglobin, blood glucose screening, skin, oral/dental examination, hemoccult kit or hearing tests.
Appointments are recommended. Call 714-593-4446 for appointment. The nurse, Jane Hannah is at the center the 2nd Friday and various Tuesdays each month. Jane is a certified gerontology nurse as well as a certified diabetes educator. She has been with PHCA for over 25 years. PHCA and Talbert Medical Group also cosponsor a diabetes education and support group once a month on the 2nd Friday from 1pm-2:30pm.
Driving Program
The 55 Alive Mature Driving curriculum consists of six separate topics over a two-day period. Each class segment is four hours. The course content covers driving frustrations, individual driving behavior, physical changes, interfacing with traffic, accident prevention measures, adverse driving conditions, other road users and recreation vehicles. Participants may register at either the F. V. Recreation Center or the F. V. Senior and Community Center.
