The medically based perspective
The Delnor-Community Health & Wellness Center (DCHWC) is a medically based
facility. Our certified exercise physiologists, physical and occupational
therapists, and nutrition specialists approach wellness from a holistic
mind/body perspective, and consider physical fitness one of the most
effective forms of preventive and rehabilitative medicine. In fact, the
center integrates Delnor-Community Hospital's physical and cardiac
rehabilitation programs and wellness services. Delnor-Community Hospital
physicians also see patients at the center who utilize our on-site physical
therapy and rehab services.
A smart start
Before a DCHWC member steps onto the equipment floor, into an exercise
class, or dives into the pool, he or she undergoes a health assessment.
This test evaluates fat-to-lean ratio, cardiovascular conditioning, endurance,
flexibility, cholesterol levels, and more. Each assessment is conducted by
one of our certified exercise physiologists. Following test completion,
physiologist and member review a computerized report of assessment results.
A safe plan
Following the assessment, the exercise physiologist creates a safe,
effective, and individualized program. After six months, a follow-up
evaluation is offered to check progress and augment the fitness plan if
necessary. In between the initial assessment and six-month follow up,
members can access our staff of exercise physiologists; two are present on
the exercise floor at all times.
The latest equipment, the most soothing
services
