  • Wellness Program

    Wellness Program: We served a daily average of 42 clients who participated in three appointments per week. Clients were able to participate in person after being released by their physician. Because the clients of Lazarus House are at a greater health risk with COVID-19, we also provided a virtual option without having no risk exposure. Lazarus House clients presented with various etiologies & degrees of cachexia. Disease related muscle loss addressed at Lazarus House involved clients who suffered from stroke, traumatic brain injury, cancer, MS, spinal cord trauma, & HIV. Certified personal health trainers provided researched & disease specific exercise training sessions. Progress was documented through a series of measurements taken before initiation, at 6 weeks, & upon completion. Measurements demonstrated that clients, on average, gained muscle & reflected a decrease in muscular wasting. The Lazarus House provided an exercise program that utilized progressive resistance training to address & attenuate disease related muscle loss, cardiopulmonary training to increase endurance & address dysmorphic issues associated with some medications, & nutritional counseling to encourage optimal muscle growth. Lazarus House restarted some of the work of the Expansion/Renovation of the builiding by completely replacing the antiquated siding with a new, quality siding. Minor repairs were made and the building was completely repainted outside. The safe haven was transformed in appearance and offers a comforting welcome to all people served here.
