LESS TIME IN THE MRI

says Diane Grillo, Vice President, Health Promotion at RWJUH Hamilton. A Medical Advisory Panel composed of 28 board-certified physicians advises on program development to maximize the benefit to attendees. Programs are held in-person at the RWJUH Hamilton Center for Health and Wellness, located at 3100 Quakerbridge Road, in Hamilton, virtually online and out in our local communities.

Information and Education. The Mini-Medical School program is one of the many educational offerings available to the public through RWJUH Hamilton. This program is aimed at those who have an interest in healthcare as a career or just want a deeper understanding of human anatomy. RWJUH Hamilton physicians teach this 8-week course, focusing on a new element of healthcare and the body each week.

Holistic Health. RWJUH Hamilton’s holistic programs focus on non-medical wellness techniques, such as meditation, aromatherapy, and Reiki, which is a practice that promotes healing by improving energy flow around the body. In addition, the Holistic Program at RWJUH Hamilton’s Cancer Center offers a holistic approach to cancer care at no cost to our patients and their families.

A Focus on Nutrition. Learn new healthy eating habits from a Registered Dietician by attending a program in our demonstration kitchen at the RWJ Fitness and Wellness Center. These programs provide participants with quality nutritional information and are taught by a trained chef who understands the importance of healthy eating and loving the food you eat.
