Adult Wellness Programs
As more American's live longer and healthier lives, Western Michigan University Adult Wellness Programs offers many services to enhance the lives of older adults and their caregivers. Serving Kalamazoo County, it is our mission to prepare students to become future health care professionals and to help older adults live in their homes for as long as possible, while complementing care provided by family or friends. We offer programs that promote self-sufficiency.
Adult Wellness Programs at WMU is your one-stop location for older adult services. By offering services to older adults, we help to delay entry to long-term care facilities - ultimately saving families money.
WMU Adult Wellness Programs are located in Kalamazoo at 110 W. Cork St.
