SUMMARY:Take Charge of Your Health: A Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP)
DESCRIPTION:In just three weeks\, October 2\, 2018\, the PMMC Health Institute begins hosting Take Charge of Your Health\, a Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP). The program is a series of workshops\, designed for adults age 55 and older* who want to take charge of their ongoing health problems such as arthritis\, MS\, fibromyalgia\, COPD\, diabetes\, high blood pressure and heart disease.
