OLEAN — During the month of June, Bradford Regional Medical Center (BRMC) and Olean General Hospital (OGH), Kaleida Health facilities, are offering a variety of classes and support groups designed to provide health education, encouragement and community connection.

If you are scheduled for total joint replacement surgery, join the Total Joint Care Class. This class provides an overview of your procedure, the recovery process and the rehabilitation you will need. It is led by an experienced member of our outpatient rehabilitation team. This month, the class will be held on Wednesday, June 18, from 11 a.m. to noon in the OGH Education Center on the first floor. To register, call (716) 375-7481.

At BRMC, individuals can connect with others dealing with a loss of a friend or loved one by attending the Grief Relief Support Group. Grief can feel overwhelming, but you are not alone. The meeting is held in the Community Room inside the BRMC Main Lobby. This compassionate and supportive group provides a place where you can share your journey with others who understand. The group will meet on Tuesday, June 24, from 4 to 5 p.m. For more information, call (814) 362-8288. No registration required. The meeting is free and open to the public.
