Volunteering is rewarding. It makes you feel like you are accomplishing somethingthat youare giving backthat you are helping people. Volunteering also gives you the opportunity to
meet people, make new friends and get out of the house. You can volunteer a day or two a week
or in some cases even a few hours a day. Of course there are some seniors that volunteer everyday and many who volunteer weeks or even months at a time.According to N Morrow-Howell, J
Hinterlong , PA Rozario and F.Tang."Older adults who volunteer and who engage in more hoursof volunteering report higher levels of well-being."

Clinical Trials
Usually sponsors of clinical trials pay most of the costs but not always. Make sure to check and
remember that your insurer is still responsible for medical coverage that is not directly related to
the clinical trial. Be aware that some insurance companies refuse to pay for certain claims for apatient enrolled in a clinical trial. Check this out before starting any program.
Clinical Trials: Why Volunteer for Clinical Trials of Medical Treatments?
The Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, is part of the U.S. government. It is the FDAs jobto make sure medical treatments are safe and effective for people to use. By taking part in a
clinical trial, you can try a new treatment that may or may not be better than those already
available. You can also contribute to better understanding of how the treatment.
