    In this episode of Focused Healthy Family podcast, we dive into a critical issue that often goes unnoticed: the design and functionality of hospitals and senior care facilities.

Tune in to uncover eye-opening insights on why our healthcare system must evolve to support seniors better—and what you can do to advocate for change.
