The CDC has advised that once you are fully vaccinated you can gather indoors with other fully vaccinated people without wearing a mask or staying 6 feet apart. You don't have to live in an assisted living facility or retirement community to start or join a Senior Group Exercise Class. If your friends have been fully vaccinated try something different than joining a large exercise class. Create your own Micro Senior Group Exercise Class with 3-5 group members. You can take turns hosting the Micro Group Exercise Class and turn it into a social engagement that focuses on health and wellness.

People with incontinence (urinary or fecal) tend to have excessive moisture build up around their buttocks, hips, and genitals. Skin irritations are caused by excessive moisture.
