Health and Wellness Workshops for Older Adults From the Berks County Area Agency on Aging
The Berks County Area Agency on Aging runs the Health & Wellness Program, a set of workshops for older Pennsylvanians on health promotion and disease prevention. The classes focus on health risk screenings, nutrition, chronic conditions, fall risk, exercise and strengthening to prevent fall-related injury, behavioral health and medication management. The goal is to promote optimum health and well-being.
Seven evidence-based Health & Wellness programs are currently available in Berks County: Chronic Disease Self-Management, Diabetes Self-Management, Chronic Pain Self-Management, Healthy Steps for Older Adults, Healthy Steps in Motion, A Matter of Balance and the Arthritis Foundation's Walk with Ease program. Details on each program and workshop are posted in a program sheet linked from the Health & Wellness Programs page at berkspa.gov.
The workshops are held at various public locations in the community, including senior community centers, senior housing facilities, churches, physician offices, rehabilitation hospitals and more. The page does not list which sites are hosting classes now, and it does not give workshop dates, times or any cost.
The Health & Wellness Program is part of the Pennsylvania Department of Aging's effort to promote healthier lifestyles among older Pennsylvanians. The Berks County Area Agency on Aging serves county residents with comprehensive services for the over 60 population.
