ALBERTA HEALTHSERVICES
A new session of Alberta Health Services’ Better Choices, Better Health workshops starts November 8. The free six-week program helps participants manage their chronic condition through two and a half hour long online workshops.
New sections have been added to the program including pain management, healthy eating, reading labels and communicating with ourselves (self-talk).
The Alberta Healthy Living Program (AHLP) is offering this and other health education workshops via Zoom, an online video communication app.
Participants can access these workshops at home on a computer, iPad, or tablet. Support persons, family and friends are also welcome.
The Better Choices, Better Health workshops are led by AHS healthcare staff and volunteer leaders. Participants will have opportunity to meet others online who share similar health experiences in a supportive and interactive setting.
