Vienna ROMEOs: Retired Men Getting Together for Lunch and Friends
As people get older, it can be harder to keep or make friends. Some friends move away, some get sick, and some pass away. Many older men also lose work friends when they retire. One simple way to meet new people is to join a ROMEO group. ROMEO stands for “Retired Old Men Eating Out.” These are casual groups where retired men can get together, enjoy a meal, and talk. In Fairfax County, membership in the Vienna ROMEOs is booming among retired men who enjoy the group’s friendly atmosphere, easy conversation, and Vienna’s wide range of dining options. Read more.
Beat the Heat: Protect Yourself in Hot Weather
Hot weather is in full swing and is expected to last through September. As the heat persists, so do the risks of heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and other health impacts. Heat can affect anyone, but older adults are especially at risk. Take the heat seriously, know how to keep cool, and understand the factors that make heat dangerous. Read more.
Understanding Your Cable Bill and Your Rights
Do you ever open your cable bill and feel unsure about what you are being charged for? If so, you are not alone. Cable bills can be difficult to understand, particularly when prices change, promotional discounts expire, or unfamiliar fees appear. Read more.
Cooling and Healthy Summertime Treats
As the temperature rises, it is tempting to seek cooling treats like ice cream, popsicles, soda, and other sugary desserts. While they may be refreshing, the high-sugar content of these treats can lead to energy crashes, blood sugar spikes, and weight gain. With some simple swaps, you can refresh with cooling summertime treats that support your health. Read more.

In the midst of day-to-day life, men can overlook their health. As we observe Men’s Health Month, take time to focus on your health with some important conversations and reminders. Here are five easy things you can talk about:
Preventive care is key: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), men die an average of five years earlier than women, often from preventable conditions. Routine check-ups and screenings are crucial for early detection of health issues.
Early detection makes a difference: Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer among men. Catching cancer early often allows more treatment options. Talk to your doctor about what cancer screenings might be right for you. The American Cancer Society has information about specific types of cancer – including risk factors, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment options on their website: cancer.org/cancer/types.
Know your numbers: 50.8% of men ages 18 and older in the United States have high blood pressure, according to the CDC. High blood pressure and high cholesterol can lead to serious health problems. By knowing and understanding your cholesterol and blood pressure numbers, you can take the steps necessary to stay healthy. Learn more by visiting the American Heart Association’s website: heart.org.
Talk about mental health and seek support: Mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety, often go undiagnosed in men due to stigma. It has also been found that suicide rates among men are significantly higher. Anybody can experience mental health issues and there is no shame in asking for help. The Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board offers counseling, medication, crisis response, resources, and other services for people of all ages with mental health concerns. Learn more at FairfaxCounty.gov/community-services-board/mental-health.
Prioritize your health and wellbeing: A 2020 National Health Interview Survey found only 28.3% of men ages 18 and older in the United States met physical activity guidelines. Everyday activities such as exercising, eating healthy, and getting enough sleep can help prevent serious health conditions.

As storm season approaches, it’s essential to be prepared for lightning, one of nature’s most dangerous phenomena. Lightning can cause fatalities, injuries, and significant damage, but staying informed can help reduce risk.
Follow the 30-30 rule:
If someone is struck, call 911 immediately and start CPR if needed. Lightning victims don’t carry a charge, so it’s safe to help.
Keep up with weather updates using resources like the National Weather Service's Lightning Safety Toolkit. Stay prepared and safe during storms to protect your family from lightning's dangers.
For more safety tips, visit the National Weather Service’s Lightning Safety Toolkit at weather.gov/safety/lightning-toolkits.

An AARP report on family caregiving in the U.S. reveals that approximately 40%-50% of family caregivers experience significant guilt about not doing enough or not feeling that they’re good enough in their caregiving roles. Among the range of emotions that family caregivers may face, caregiver guilt is particularly prominent and can be an overwhelming experience. Caregiver guilt refers to the feeling of remorse or anxiety that individuals may experience while caring for someone.
To cope with caregiver guilt, consider the following strategies and practical exercises:
Set Realistic Goals: Focus on achievable caregiving expectations rather than striving for perfection. The “Good Enough Caregiver Standard” is an idea that suggests caregivers do not need to be perfect in their caregiving roles.
Practical Exercise: Ask yourself, “Is my loved one safe? Are their basic needs being met? Am I kind and patient, even if I’m sometimes tired, irritable, or frustrated?” If the answer is usually yes, you’re doing enough – even if you feel guilty.
Write this on a card or note: “My job is not to be perfect. My job is to keep them safe, cared for, and loved as best I can today.”
Practice Mindfulness through the Five Senses Grounding Technique: This technique is often used as a mindfulness practice to help individuals stay in the present and reduce feelings of anxiety and guilt.
Practical Exercise-Notice and name:
Caregiver guilt is a common experience for many family caregivers, but learning effective strategies can help manage this challenging emotion. If you would like to learn more about caregiving resources, call our Aging, Disability, and Caregiver Resource Line at 703-324-7948 or visit FairfaxCounty.gov/OlderAdults.

Created by the Virginia State Bar in September 1979, the Senior Virginians Handbook is a publication that addresses laws and programs affecting older adults in Virginia. The Senior Lawyers Section of the Virginia State Bar maintains the handbook and periodically releases updated versions. The most recent version was updated in 2025.
The Senior Virginians Handbook is a free resource for older adults, their families, and their caregivers that provides overviews of issues and choices facing older adults. The handbook includes summaries of how specific laws affect older Virginians, practical advice on issues, and organizations that serve older adults. The handbook can help you make educated choices about issues you face or find professionals who can provide the support you need.
The Senior Virginians Handbook is divided into 12 sections covering these topics:

English and Spanish versions of the handbook are available for download from the Virginia State Bar website at www.bit.ly/VSBSVH. Please note that the Spanish handbook is a translation of the previous update in 2021.

Fairfax County, along with the Cities of Fairfax and Falls Church, will survey thousands of residents age 50 and older to learn more about the aging experience in the Fairfax area.
The information will be used to continue the work of the SHAPE the Future of Aging Plan to ensure the Fairfax area remains a great place to age well.
The survey will be sent to a randomly selected sample of adults age 50 and older. The survey will collect data on the experiences, lifestyle, perceptions, and challenges faced by those aging in our community.
The CASOA was distributed in 2019 and 2022 and the results were used to formulate the 50+ Community Action plan and SHAPE the Future of Aging plan to address initiatives related to Services for Older Adults, Housing, Access to Mobility Options, Personal Wellbeing, and Economic Stability and Planning.
Please know that if you receive the CASOA, it is legitimate, and we want to hear from you! More information coming soon about ways to provide input if you are not part of the randomly selected sample.

Spring brings blooming flowers, buzzing bees, and pollen in the air. Weather conditions such as temperature, humidity, wind, and rain can affect when allergy season starts and ends, and how severe symptoms can be. A longer and more intense pollen season is in the forecast this year, which can worsen allergies, asthma attacks, and other health conditions, especially as we age.
Pollen season lasts for several months and is affected by different types of plants. In Northern Virginia, tree pollen started in early March and is expected to peak in April and May. Grass pollen will increase in late spring and early summer, followed by ragweed and other weeds in late summer and early fall.
For many people, pollen causes seasonal allergies. Common symptoms include red or itchy eyes, congestion, runny nose, scratchy throat, sneezing, coughing, and headaches. Pollen can also worsen asthma and other respiratory illnesses, and can cause difficulty breathing, especially for older adults and people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart disease, and other health conditions.
In older adults, pollen can even cause fatigue, confusion, raised blood pressure, and temporary changes to eyesight. Additionally, sinus pressure from allergies can lead to dizziness and balance problems, creating increased risk of falls.
As we move further into spring and beyond, the following actions can help reduce the effects of pollen and seasonal allergies:
By following these steps, you can reduce the impact of seasonal allergies on your health and make the most of spring. For more health preparedness tips, visit FairfaxCounty.gov/health/emergency.
