About WISEWOMAN Program
The WISEWOMAN Program, offered by the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources in Wellsburg, WV, is dedicated to empowering low-income women aged 40 to 64 who are uninsured or underinsured. Our mission is to equip these women with essential knowledge, practical skills, and invaluable opportunities to enhance their dietary habits and physical activity, ultimately helping to prevent, delay, and manage cardiovascular and other chronic diseases. Through our comprehensive services, we provide health education, crucial measurements like height, weight, and blood pressure, as well as laboratory tests for cholesterol and glucose levels. For those with elevated results, we offer follow-up visits and personalized support in setting achievable health goals. Additionally, we focus on educating women on making healthier lifestyle choices, such as quitting smoking and improving nutrition, while connecting them to vital community resources for sustained support in their wellness journeys.
