Classes cover healthy lifestyle changes you can make gradually to help with weight loss or weight maintenance and/or help with decreasing cholesterol, blood pressure levels and more!

Michigan Harvest Gathering
Every fall, Eaton Rapids Medical Center joins with our community and schools to help feed our hungry here in Eaton Rapids. All donations go to Heart and Hands food bank. If everyone could donate 1 can of food or $1 we could help so many people not feel hunger!
