At The Tony Thwaites Wing we promote healthy lifestyles and wellness. The first step toward good health begins by understanding your own health, visiting your doctor for regular check-ups and making a nutritional diet and exercise part of your daily routine. On the wellness page we post clear and informative articles about maintaining good health, making lifestyle changes to manage a disease or condition and tips for the prevention of health issues. The more knowledgeable you are about your health, the better prepared you are to make informed healthcare decisions.
