Albuquerque-based University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center launched Vive Bien/Live Well, a healthy aging program to aid older adults in maintaining their health, independence and quality of life.
The program, administered by UNM Health Sciences and funded by the New Mexico Health Care Authority, is part of the World Health Organization’s Integrated Care for Older People. It is delivered via a bilingual mobile app that is free to New Mexicans aged 65 and older, according to a July 28 system news release.
The app guides users through brief health check-in questionnaires focused on areas for healthy aging, such as memory and thinking, moving around, healthy eating and emotional well-being. After the questionnaire, users receive personalized recommendations, preventive health information, goal-setting support and community resources.
New Mexico is the first state to provide the tool via a bilingual mobile app, the release said.
