At Wellness & Safety in Fairfield, IA, we are dedicated to empowering seniors and family caregivers by helping them access essential services and resources that promote independence and self-sufficiency. Our robust Wellness & Safety programs, including the Better Choices Better Health initiative, equip adults with the skills to manage chronic diseases like arthritis, heart disease, and diabetes through supportive, community-based workshops led by trained peers who understand the journey. Participants gain valuable strategies for dealing with isolation and fatigue, learn appropriate exercises, and receive guidance on medication management and effective communication with healthcare providers. Additionally, our A Matter of Balance program focuses on reducing the fear of falls, teaching practical strategies to enhance strength and balance through engaging sessions at independent and assisted living facilities. Most of our classes are offered for free, with donations welcomed to help cover materials. For information on upcoming classes or to arrange a group session, we invite you to reach out and join us in fostering healthier, more active lives for our seniors.
