Page 3 One of the great draws of Sisters Country is the opportunity to live in a healthful environment that promotes a sense of well-being. Many people in Sisters live active lives, out in the garden or on the trail on a bike, on foot or on horseback. We engage in all kinds of sporting activities. Central Oregon is full of providers of services that enhance health and well-being. They’re here for the same reasons, and they understand the need to help their clients and patients stay on the path of adventure — or get back on it when injury takes them down. Whether it’s healing from an injury or maintaining good health from head to toe, these providers seek to work in partnership with their patients and clients — because health care is most efficient and effective when we are proactive and engaged. No matter what is ailing or troubling us, we do better when we act early, before problems become acute. And each of the providers profiled
in Partners in Health and Well-Being make it easy and comfortable to act. This place is also a beautiful setting in which to end our journey, and there are caring providers who help families make the final steps on the path comfortable, dignified, and affirming. With experienced and expert professionals to help us, we can optimize our health and wellbeing to enjoy the best of the Sisters Country way of life.
