Nurse Practitioner–led classes, lectures and gift bags that help women ages 25–55 choose healthier habits — and help communities get to know their NPs.
Six simple steps connect Nurse Practitioners, local facilities and the women they serve.
Nurse Practitioners partner with community recreation centers, hospitals and health clubs in their practice region, linking motivational programs to existing healthy-lifestyle classes.
Series include yoga, aerobics, women's self-defense, healthy cooking, Jazzercise, and breast cancer survival and screening. NP Outreach provides course material and data collection.
Women who attend the intro lecture and enroll in a series receive a carry-bag of health products matched to their age group. Fees are set and collected by the facility.
Throughout the lectures, prevention and treatment products are identified and their specific use is explained.
NP Outreach staff are the liaison between manufacturers and the Nurse Practitioners who educate participants.
Participants complete brief entry and exit questionnaires, so outcomes are tracked.
The program combines exercise classes, a lecture series, and specific product usage and education — and measures results to promote lasting lifestyle change. Each event's gift bag is matched to the women attending.
Fitness, nutrition, skin care, and fertility and prenatal wellness.
Perimenopause and menopause, heart and bone health, and sleep.
