R.I.S.E. Wellness Program

Our new R.I.S.E. program stands for Reach Inward and Shift Each day. This is a community based education program open to all residents of Northumberland County including those who are not NFHT patients. The intent is to create social connections, give participants an opportunity to reflect and create positive changes in their life.

RISE is a community based program open to residents of Northumberland who are ready to connect, reflect & create positive change.

The RISE program will be based on these 5 pillars of wellness:

  • healthy living/lifestyle change
  • nutritious eating
  • physical movement
  • alternative health practices
  • mental health

Conventional healthcare often prioritizes treatment over prevention. We would like to fill this gap by delivering a pro-active, person-ed wellness program focused on sustainable behaviour change and whole-person care.

We will be encouraging goal setting and helping participants reach those targets.

  • Registered Pharmacist
  • Registered Social Worker (MSW, RSW)

The R.I.S.E. program is open to anyone in Northumberland County. No registration required. If you have any questions about the program please call 289-252-2139 or email info@nfht.ca.
