About this Event

Ever leave a doctor’s appointment wishing you had remembered to ask that one important question?

Navigating the healthcare system can be stressful. Join NorWest Community Health Centres for a free, 90-minute workshop designed to help you take charge of your health and confidently advocate for yourself in the exam room.

What You Will Learn: Make every minute of your medical visits count! You will leave this interactive session with practical tools to:

  • Prepare efficiently before your appointment.
  • Communicate clearly and ask the right questions.
  • Ensure you fully understand the next steps for your care.

🎁 Exclusive Attendee Perks: This program is fully funded by Ontario Health and 100% free. As a thank you, anyone who attends the full session will be mailed a free self-care package including a hot/cold ice pack, a stress ball, and a daily pill organizer!

A Stepping Stone to Wellness: Curious about our full 6-week Self-Management Programs (covering Chronic Disease, Diabetes, Chronic Pain, and Cancer)? This 90-minute workshop is the perfect, low-pressure way to experience our supportive community before deciding if a longer series is right for you.

Who Should Attend: This workshop is open to anyone in the community.

Secure your spot today and take the first step toward feeling more confident at your next doctor's appointment!
