Today, there are roughly seven million older adults striving to be independent, yet have difficulty leaving home and do not want to put stress on family members. Telehealth is a method of remote health care provided in the home to improve access to quality care, reduce hospitalizations and lower costs.
Recently, telehealth applications have expanded to improve access to care and communication, especially for remote, vulnerable, or marginalized populations.

Lots of photos below -
Have plans this weekend?
Add to your list a visit to the Suter Produce
corn maze,
cider press,
hayride,
pick your own pumpkin,
cider slushies,
kettle corn donuts…and, don't forget,
four acres of pick your own sunflowers.
New this year, the four-acre u-pick sunflower patch features over 20 varieties of flowers and thousands of blooms to select from.
The sunflowers are next to the pumpkin patch, so a hayride takes visitors to both locations.
