Small Changes. Big Results.

105,000 Healthy Wisconsin Nurses Send a Powerful Message to our Patients And Our Communities… Join us for a one-day, hands-on, and interactive program focused on improving and protecting your health. Comfortable clothing and shoes are encouraged to allow for relaxation and active participation!

Conference objectives:

  1. Identify healthy behaviors to make sustainable positive lifestyle changes (healthy eating, exercise, rest and stress reduction) to decrease chronic diseases like hypertension.
  2. Utilize developed tools and methods that participants can translate into their self-care and settings that include but are not limited to home, community, or workplace.
  3. Empower participants to take advantage of opportunities for health promotion and disease prevention by translating their knowledge to their patients that small changes can lead to big results.
