Ep. 1 - Cancer Support and Wellness Services Transform Lives at Wayne HealthCare
Wayne HealthCare's commitment to community wellness shines through in this eye-opening conversation between Wellness Coordinator Robyn Feitshans and Foundation Director Lauren Henry. The duo unveils the transformative power of their expanded 10,000-square-foot Wellness Center, which has revolutionized healthcare delivery in their rural community since opening in 2021.
The heart of their mission beats strongest in specialized programs like CORE (Cardio Oncology Rehabilitation Exercise), where cancer patients find relief from treatment side effects and renewed functionality in daily life. The foundation's financial support ensures these vital services remain accessible to all, regardless of economic circumstance—a theme echoed throughout their programming landscape.
From the seven-week Stepping On fall prevention course to the Clinical Exercise program bridging rehabilitation gaps, Wayne HealthCare has crafted a comprehensive wellness ecosystem that addresses both prevention and recovery. Their approach recognizes that true healing encompasses more than just medical intervention; it requires nutritional guidance, physical strengthening, and emotional support.
Perhaps most moving is their revival of the 'Look Good Feel Better' program, addressing the often-overlooked cosmetic challenges of cancer treatment. These free workshops featuring beauty professionals, makeup kits, and wig styling restore more than appearance—they rebuild confidence and identity during life's most challenging chapter. As Robin poignantly observes, "When you look presentable or feel put together, you can have higher self-confidence." When cancer strips away hair and eyebrows, sometimes self-identity disappears too.
The foundation's involvement extends beyond these cornerstone programs to fund compression garments for lymphedema patients, discounted lung screenings, and numerous other initiatives that might otherwise remain financially out of reach for many community members.
Want to experience these transformative programs yourself or help someone in need? Contact Robyn at 937-569-6504 or visit www.waynehealthcare.org to discover how quality care close to home is redefining wellness in rural Ohio.
