"ROW YOUR OWN BOAT"
Learn techniques
for taking control of your health!
The weekly six-session
interactive workshop helps people who have significant health conditions learn
how to take control of their health. The sessions deal with the issues that
everyone living with an ongoing (chronic) health condition faces. Each session
lasts two and one-half hours. We encourage you to bring a family member or
support person to all sessions. You will learn how to accomplish the following:
-
Manage medications
-
Deal with depression
-
Eat wisely and well
-
Control pain
-
Set and meet your goals
-
Fight fatigue and frustration
-
Start an appropriate exercise program
-
Manage stress and relax
-
Communication with Health Care Providers, Family and Friends
-
Solve problems
Living Well With
Chronic Health Problems
can help you develop the skills needed to take control of your health condition
and live a happier and healthier life. Stanford University developed the Chronic
Disease Self-management Program (CDSMP).
This program is now available
in Southern Oregon
(Jackson, Klamath and Josephine counties). It is designed to
enhance medical treatment and deal with the issues that everyone living with
an ongoing health condition faces. We now have certified workshop leaders (click
HERE to see pictures) available to guide you
through this Stanford University
developed education program.
