Partnership With Rice County Health Program Increases Access to Wellness Classes

A partnership between the Rice County Statewide Health Improvement Partnership (SHIP) and Northfield Retirement Community provides both NRC residents and the Rice County community with the opportunity to take free evidence-based wellness classes, like Tai Ji Quan: Moving for Better Balance. Person-centered opportunities like these teach residents the simple things they can do to live longer, healthier lives and remain independent.

View the video below to learn more about our partnership with SHIP and to see NRC staff members Amy Belcher, Lynnette Tupy and Shawnda Mittelstaedt and ParkView resident Shirley Comeaux discuss the benefits of the programming.
