Project Summary: The Saint Francis Lifestyle Medicine program introduces patients to the key concepts of Lifestyle Medicine using Shared Medical Appointments in the setting of a teaching kitchen and  Shared Medical Appointments. Program objectives include instilling confidence in patients to begin their own healthy culinary journeys through the skills they learn during these sessions and equipping them with the information to accomplish vital tasks like grocery shopping, reading food labels, and meal planning all of which have a decisive impact on health. Other objectives include increasing physical activity; improving sleep hygiene, sleep quality and sleep duration; learning and developing techniques to better handle stress; understanding the importance of living with purpose and positive connections; and knowing the harms of risky substances. This will be achieved using a multidisciplinary team-based approach consisting of a board-certified Lifestyle Medicine physician, a professional chef, a registered dietician, a licensed therapist and an exercise physiologist in the setting of the hospital gym. The use of validated survey tools and software applications will allow us to continually monitor the effectiveness of the program, improve it, and expand it to more populations.
