For many years, InterFaith has wanted to be able to do more than just tell patients how to make healthy choices; we've wanted to be able to show them. Thanks to a three-year grant partnership with Humana, now we have the opportunity to do just that.
InterFaith's Healthy Lifestyle Classroom is located adjacent to the main clinical building and provides space for classes on
- healthy cooking and eating on a budget
- chronic disease management
- prescription savings strategies
- smoking cessation
- low-impact exercise
- nutrition
- other life skills such as money management
Sandy Wells came to InterFaith four years ago after she suffered a stroke. Since then, she has relied on InterFaith for many of her health needs.“I’ve always been a firm believer that life is about relationships, and they made it clear to me we were going to partner in my healthcare,” Sandy said. As a diabetic, Sandy knows the importance of making healthy lifestyle choices, and she's already had the opportunity to participate in a class in the Healthy Lifestyle Classroom. “I think it’s a one in a million chance for me to be involved, and for me to be a part, and for me to be a little piece of what’s going on,” Wells said.
