About LiveWell

Providing accessible, personalized, evidence-based community wellness programming across Nova Scotia

Live Well is a group exercise program that focuses on improving the physical and mental health of Nova Scotians with chronic conditions.*

​

​

LiveWell programs:

​

• Create smooth transitions for patients between hospital care and community health.

• Deliver care in the most appropriate setting for promoting and sustaining health and wellness.

• Improve health outcomes of individuals with a focus on secondary prevention and chronic disease self-management.

• Reduce health disparities through the elimination of both real and perceived barriers to participation.

 

LiveWell supports both physician and self-referrals and offers a comprehensive intake process, supervision, and progression within a socially supportive environment. It embraces a person-centric approach that focuses on secondary prevention and chronic disease self-management. LiveWell encourages participants to take control of their own health.

​

*Chronic conditions are defined broadly as conditions that last one year or more and require ongoing medical attention, or limit activities of daily or both.
