Let your curiosity and desire to learn run wild! This will benefit YOU. It will also benefit your future patients/clients! As a future healthcare professional or healthcare provider you will often be encouraging your clients/patients to embark upon a behavior change mission to improve their health. Chronic illness can often be mitigated by improved health behaviors. (ex: improved diet/lower sugar can reduce a diabetic’s risk, increased physical activity can reduce risk of heart disease and cancer) Advising and encouraging patients can be challenging if they feel you can’t relate to their struggles. To prepare to help others- let’s try it for ourselves! You will work on a multi-step assignment to create a Personal Health Plan for yourself.
