Break a sweat this afternoon with Student Health and Wellness! Drop by the tennis courts outside Rotary Place any time between 12pm - 2pm to play a game of pickleball or tennis, or meet up with fellow Thunderwolves for a walk along the paths through the West Orillia Sports Complex.
Notes regarding pickleball/tennis: No experience is required, we're all learning together! The courts can't be booked, so we will play on whichever courts are available.
Student Health and Wellness have partnered with Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit to offer Naloxone training to Lakehead students. Participants will learn about the symptoms of opioid overdose and when and how to use naloxone.
There is no cost for the training, however, registration is required and spaces are limited. Each participant will receive a naloxone kit.
In recognition of Suicide Prevention Day, Student Health and Wellness is offering safeTALK to all Lakehead students, faculty and staff.
safeTALK is a 4-hour, in-person workshop to build skills in suicide prevention. Participants will learn how to recognize and engage with someone thinking about suicide, overcome attitudes that act as barriers to help, talk openly about suicide and connect with intervention resources for further support.
