Empowered Living

Are you considering making life changes to improve your child’s overall health and well-being?

• Could your children or teens benefit from more exercise?
• Could finding activities they enjoy help them sleep better or feel better?
• Does your family have a history of diabetes, high blood pressure or another serious health concern?

The Chickasaw Nation has developed a team of health-focused professionals who recognize each child is unique. Every family enjoys different activities and foods. Healthy kids and healthy families are the focus of Empowered Living.

What happens at Empowered Living clinic appointments?

• The Empowered Living clinic at the Chickasaw Nation Ardmore Health Clinic offers children and teens specialized services and resources to assist them in achieving healthy lifestyle goals.
• Empowered Living provides participants with knowledge, guidance and support. Family members are encouraged to engage in healthy choices and activities to support the child, and to develop a healthy family.
• Empowered Living clinic patients meet with each of our health care providers for a medical evaluation, nutritional counseling, a physical activity assessment and behavioral health counseling.

Ask your personal care provider if your child qualifies for Empowered Living.

Participants can obtain a referral to the pediatric Empowered Living clinic from a Chickasaw Nation health care provider. Parents and guardians may also call the Empowered Living program directly to set up an appointment.
