Bowen Island Community Health Centre, in partnership with SKY, is helping to implement a new evidence-based online educational tool designed to mitigate your risk of developing dementia or other cognitive decline.
The program and the research behind it have been validated academically, and they are now working on launching the program nation-wide. To better do this, communities across Canada have been selected to offer early access. Bowen Island is the only community in BC chosen for this stage of the process!
Brain Health PRO was created by experts in brain health and aging. The program gives you essential tips on how to keep your brain and cognition healthy as you age, and is structured around seven modifiable risk factors:
· cognitive engagement
· sleep
· vascular health
· social & psychological health
· nutrition
· physical activity
· vision & hearing
The program takes about 6 months to complete. It is self-paced, so you can choose how quickly you move through the modules in your learning journey.
As this is a new program not yet promoted to the broader public, there is a survey that needs to be completed before you begin the program to help their research process in advance of the broader roll out to come.
The Bowen Island Community Health Centre is pleased to promote this independent program and offer this opportunity to our community. However, please note, we do not have any connection or access to the research being conducted, so your participation is entirely confidential.
