Reaching Out... and Reaching Back “To Your Health” Joan Logue, Roving Reporter

One of our Compass themes this year centers on “reaching out” — how Lincoln Hills residents reach out to each other and to the greater com- munity of Lincoln and beyond. Well, some- times when we reach out, others “reach back,” so reaching out goes both ways. A hot topic in our conversations with friends over coffee, table games, sports, and meals is our health: “I’m re- ally pleased with my brand new knee.” “My arthritis is killing me!” “How long ago was your surgery?” How are we reaching out — with reciprocal benefits — in our health concerns here in SCLH? When a physician speaks at one of our Community Forums, we are ben- efitting from learning that there are a variety of ways to approach our health care for various conditions. We may have been searching for information or for a specialist, and a Forum provides an inroad. The doctors who present to us, on the other hand, may benefit by finding new patients, or helping their medical group in their outreach efforts. They get exposure and we become bet- ter informed.
