About WISEWOMAN Program

The WISEWOMAN Program, run by the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources in Elkview, WV, is dedicated to empowering low-income women aged 40 to 64 who are uninsured or underinsured. This impactful program equips participants with essential knowledge and resources to enhance their diets, increase physical activity, and adopt healthier lifestyle choices, ultimately aimed at preventing and managing cardiovascular and other chronic diseases. Through health education, regular health assessments including height, weight, and blood pressure measurements, as well as lab tests for cholesterol and glucose, women receive a comprehensive view of their health status. If needed, follow-up visits are available for those with elevated results, fostering a supportive environment to set and achieve realistic health goals.
