Good Samaritan Hospital Lets You Keep Track of Your Health Online

Good Samaritan Website Provides “Your Health” Link

Suffern, N.Y. (PRWEB) March 29, 2006

Good Samaritan Hospital is now providing a complete, free online guide to personal well being and health. The “Your Health” feature on their website – http://www.GoodSamHosp.org – allows users to asses their health, receive personal health updates and search through a wide array of medical resources.

The site’s main interactive health assessment quiz gives users a picture, or “mirror,” of their personal health, and gives suggestions on behaviors and actions that can lead to a personal improvement in well being. The site also helps users set – and reach – important health goals, such as weight loss and stress reduction.    Other interactive tools include health calculators (such as BMI, or Body Mass Index), customized health newsletters and regular reminders for dental work, annual check ups and more.

This online resource also offers a wealth of health related information to keep the online community up to date and educated on health related issues. Focused on the individual, “Your Health” provides users with instant access to Good Samaritan Hospital’s all-encompassing library of information including diseases and conditions, surgeries and procedures, health news, nutrition facts, and so much more.

“This addition to our website allows individuals to explore the site at their own pace and discretion,” said Karen Stoohs, Website Project Manager. “The ‘Your Health’ site is a helpful resource for anyone in need of more information about a specific health-related problem.”

Featuring information about your personal health, your family’s health, wellness management, and outcome improvements, this extremely diverse online resource is available 24 hours, 7 days a week. Log on today at http://www.GoodSamHosp.org and click on the “Your Health” tab.
