When we consider the abilities and disabilities of ourselves and family members, there are many factors that we cannot control. However, we do have some degree of control of our lifestyle and we can work to make it as healthy as possible. We can also work in many ways to make the communities in which we live healthy environments.

At the same time, when medical conditions arise, we want to find answers. The Internet today has thousands of health sites with an overwhelming amount of information. This page contains annotated links to some of the many quality sites for medical and health information. Of course, no site is a substitute for the personal attention of your physician; however, we hope you can be better informed when you do need to visit a doctor.

Because of the holistic emphasis of Companion Resources on persons living in community, we provide links to sites that emphasize personal health and also include lesser known sites that emphasize community health.
