Wellness for the 55+ crowd

NEW HAVEN – CareCard, the Hospital of Saint Raphael’s health and wellness program for those 55 and older, is launching two new fitness programs in Hamden: indoor walking and water aerobics.

The indoor walking program will be facilitated by a certified instructor who will provide instruction and guidance for walkers of varying degrees of mobility, including those rehabilitating from surgical procedures or injuries, the statement said.
