“The UC Osher Wellness Suite and Learning Kitchen represents the future of whole-person care in Cincinnati. As the first space of its kind in the region within an academic health center, we are excited to bring together patients, survivors, caregivers, clinicians, researchers, students, and community in one place dedicated to transformative well-being,” said Sian Cotton, PhD, director of the Osher Center for Integrative Health at UC and professor and Turner Farm Foundation Chair in the Department of Family and Community Medicine in UC’s College of Medicine.
“Evidence-based approaches, such as nutrition, the arts, nature, mindfulness and movement as medicine are integrated not only into world-class, comprehensive cancer care, but into everyday life, helping shift health care toward true well-care.”
The fourth and fifth floors are the newest additions to the University of Cincinnati Cancer Center, a collaboration between the University of Cincinnati, UC Health and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital. The Cancer Center consists of more than 250 clinicians and researchers who aim to elevate cancer research and care standards across the Midwest region and beyond.
