Health Literacy and Empowerment

My class is designed to be interactive, fun, and insightful for students! My goal is for students to take away knowledge that will help them take better care of themselves daily, with a strong focus on preventive health measures (structuring a balanced diet, exercising, and exploring mindfulness). My aim is to help students not only learn how to take agency over their health, but also providing ways to navigate a difficult medical system and advocate for themselves!

I believe I'm the ideal instructor because I not only work in healthcare as a physical therapist/personal trainer, I have also overcome a chronic illness. I feel at peace and happy to share what I've learned along my own personal health journey. My class will be conducted with a structured mini lecture, then an activity and questions platform to encourage active learning.

Meet your instructor, Danielle:

Hi, my name is Danielle Scaffidi! I'm a licensed physical therapist and certified personal trainer. I'm passionate about educating health and fitness to clients, in a way that's fun and informative! I believe knowledge should empower people to realize their agency in making personal health and medical choices, in order to achieve the best possible outcomes for an improved quality of life. I hold this topic near and dear to my heart because I've encountered trials and tribulations navigating my own chronic illness in a complex medical system. I want to share what I've learned with others so people can avoid the challenges I went through in receiving timely and appropriate care.
