Sep 9, 2021 | 1:19 PM

Two Alberta Health Services workshops to help participants manage chronic conditions will begin later this month.

A Chronic Disease Self-Management workshop will run Thursdays from Sept. 16-Oct. 21 from 6 to 8:30 p.m.

A Chronic Pain workshop will run Wednesdays Sept. 29-Nov. 3 from 1:15 to 3:45 p.m.

The Alberta Healthy Living Program is offering this and other health education workshops via Zoom. The workshops can be accessed at home on a computer, iPad, or tablet.

The Better Choices, Better Health workshops are led by AHS health-care staff and volunteer leaders. AHS says participants will have the chance to meet others online who share similar health experiences in a supportive and interactive setting.

South Zone residents can register by calling 403-529-8969 or toll-free 1-866-795-9709. You are asked to register under the name Better Choices, Better Health.
