Covidien Collaborates With Arthritis Foundation On Patient-Education Initiatives

(snip...) "The Let's Move Together Movement Tracker is an online tool members can use to set personal goals, benchmark their physical activity and keep motivated to stay active. Social media applications for the tracker include a widget, enabling users to display progress updates on their Arthritis Foundation community page, Facebook or MySpace pages.

"The Foundation is committed to identifying ways to cure and treat arthritis, but prevention is also central to our mission. Regular physical activity, which is encouraged by the Movement Tracker, can play a great role in prevention of the most common form of arthritis," said Rick Bell, Managing Director of Cause Development with the Arthritis Foundation. "We are excited about working with Covidien on this important initiative."

Launched in January 2009, the Let's Move Together campaign is a nationwide movement designed to inspire people to move every day to prevent or treat arthritis. The campaign encourages daily physical activity for better health and participation in the Arthritis Foundation's local Arthritis Walks--an annual event that promotes fun and fitness." (more...)
