Better Choices, Better Health helps adults of all ages and caregivers manage the symptoms of chronic diseases, such as heart disease, arthritis, diabetes, depression, asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, and any other physical and mental health conditions. This evidence-based program, developed by Stanford University, is held weekly for six weeks at Avera Holy Family Hospital from 1-3 pm on Thursdays in the Cardiac Rehab area beginning April 7th.
