Wise and Well Heart Smart Program

The Emanuel Friedman Wise and Well Heart Smart Program in Redwood City, CA, is dedicated to improving the health and well-being of older adults, particularly low-income and minority seniors aged 60 and above in San Mateo County. We provide essential services such as free health screenings and educational sessions focused on managing heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes—conditions that significantly impact our community. Our offerings include monthly drop-in health screenings, one-on-one nursing consultations, and informative classes on nutrition and risk factor management. Additionally, the Annual Wellness Advantage screening provides comprehensive assessments including cholesterol levels, blood pressure, blood glucose, BMI, and waist measurements, ensuring our seniors receive the care they need. To access these vital services, please register at your local Wise and Well Heart Smart senior center; appointments are required.
