UT to hold open house for Center for Health and Successful Living

A public open house will take place Thursday, Oct. 17 in the Center for Health and Successful Living on The University of Toledo’s Main Campus.

The event will be 7-9 p.m. in room 1100 of the Health and Human Services Building and will include tours and opportunities to meet the staff. Dr. Iman Mohamed, medical director of the Breast Center at the Eleanor N. Dana Cancer Center at the UT Medical Center, and Dr. Helen Mabry, surgical oncologist at UTMC, also will speak.

The Center for Health and Successful Living, which opened earlier this year, is a community hub of resources, education and support for people living with chronic disease and those who seek to improve their health.

Services include:

•  walking/physical activity programs
•  support groups
•  nutrition counseling
•  book club for survivors
•  recreation therapy
•  mammography and clinical services support

In the future, the center plans to offer counseling, social work, physical and occupational therapy, legal, tobacco cessation, health and wellness counseling and educational services, as well.

Rocket Wellness, a health and wellness enhancement program for the UT community, and the Center for Successful Aging, a program for older adults and their families, also are housed in the center and will share several services.

Community partners include Susan G. Komen of Northwest Ohio, the American Cancer Society, the Toledo-Lucas County Health Department, the Toledo-Lucas County Commission on Minority Health and the Zepf Center.
