Programs and Services
cancer
If you or a loved one is living with cancer, you are not alone. Three out of
four families are affected by cancer. It's a difficult time. Dealing with the
treatment and its side effects can be a struggle for both patients, families
and friends. Juggling personal, family, professional and financial
responsibilities can be overwhelming. Emotions can adversely affect
quality of life.
Too often the practical and medical issues push the psychological issues
aside. Patients often keep their deepest fears and worries to themselves,
reluctant to share thoughts of hopelessness with family members who are
supporting and caring for them. Family members and support persons
may keep some of their deepest emotions to themselves as well,
protecting the patient from feelings of anxiety, despair, and even anger.
This effects their quality of life.
There is good news: The Wellness Community can help. And it's free.
It's a place where those affected by cancer will find support, education and
hope. Support groups address emotional issues. Educational workshops
provide answers to important questions. Stress management programs
enhance health and well-being. Every program is offered free of charge.
support
The comfortable, home-like environment at The Wellness Community
makes sharing and mutual support easy. There are several different
groups that can provide much needed emotional support to those affected
by cancer. Our clinical staff consists of masters-level independently
licensed counselors and social workers who are trained to specifically
understand the complexity of the issues related to cancer.
Weekly Support Groups offer people with cancer an opportunity to share
thoughts, feelings, and information. Together, people with cancer
experience warmth, understanding and support.
Weekly Support Groups for Family Members and Support Persons offer
those supporting a person with cancer the opportunity to discuss common
issues. Together, friends and family can learn new ways to not only
address their individual issues, but new ways to support their loved ones
living with cancer.
Networking Groups offer the opportunity for those affected by cancer to
come together and share issues common to a particular diagnosis,
specific cancer or topic.
education
Workshops bring some of the most respected Columbus area oncology
professionals to The Wellness Community. Special educational programs
include areas such as pain management, fatigue, nutrition, cancer
treatment and clinical trials. Some special programs focus exclusively on a
particular diagnosis.
Stress Management Programs offer techniques to help manage and
reduce stress, like relaxation, visualization, or therapeutic touch. Stress
Management is important in self-care.
Gentle Exercise Programs such as Yoga and Chi Gong are offered
weekly. These programs help restore flexibility, gently rebuild muscle
strength and endurance, and enhance the efficacy of the immune system.
Please contact us to be placed on our mailing list.
hope
The Wellness Community is part of a national organization. It is the
largest support program in the country devoted solely to providing free
emotional support, education and hope to people living with cancer. There
are over 9 million cancer survivors in the U.S. Today.
Studies have shown that there are three primary stressors common to
those with cancer and their families: isolation, loss of control and
hopelessness.
Programs at The Wellness Community are specifically designed to
address these areas for anyone affected by cancer.
Support groups help those living with cancer express and deal with their
emotions and feel supported at a time when they can feel very much alone.
Educational and stress management programs help participants gain
information and learn skills that help restore a sense of control and
empowerment.
For more than 20 years in communities all across the county, The
Wellness Community has helped people affected by cancer enhance
their health and well being, and find hope.
