FUN WAYS FOR FAMILIES TO GET HEALTHY & FIT IN 2008

Ideas for the Families of Kaiser Permanente Greater Southern Alameda Area

Do you wish that you and your family were more active, and perhaps ate healthier? Now is the time to make the time for fun activities for yourself, your children, and your entire family.

Obesity in both children and adults has become a major epidemic in our country, but we can stop this by making important lifestyle changes. Exercise and eating healthy can be fun (and inexpensive) for the whole family! Think about the physical activities you and each person in your family enjoy, and then make sure you add them to your busy schedule at least a few times a week.

You will find a variety of activities and classes for both you and your children within this guide. There are so many beautiful sites to see in the Bay Area, so get outside and hike, bike, walk, run--whatever your preference, you can make exercise fun and learn more about our unique cities and towns in the process!

An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
