Hamilton, NJ, October 14, 2025 - Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton, an RWJBarnabas Health facility, recently welcomed 145 community members for an engaging and informative Fall Health Fair dedicated to promoting wellness, education, and connection among adults aged sixty-five and older.
The event was presented by the Better Health Program at RWJUH Hamilton, a complimentary membership program available for all community members 65+ years old. Those who attended had the opportunity to speak with RWJUH Hamilton experts from its Wound Care Center, Sleep Center, heart and vascular team, rehabilitation, Emergency Department, RWJ Fitness & Wellness Center, Geriatric RWJBarnabas Health Medical Group providers, and more.
In addition to meeting experts one-on-one, attendees also benefited from free health screenings and assessments, offering insights into key wellness areas, and encouraging initiative-taking steps toward healthy aging.
“Our goal is to empower older adults with knowledge and resources that help support healthier living,” said Diane Grillo, Vice President, Health Promotion, at RWJUH Hamilton. “In today’s world, health care may begin through a screen, but it’s human connection--and in-person events like this--that allow us to build trust, foster comfort, and connect our members directly with our experts, creating the foundation for exceptional care.”
The Better Health Program is offered year-round with many valuable programs and opportunities to gain experience, connect, explore, and discover tools for living well. The health fair reflected this commitment—bringing the hospital’s services and the community together in one space to celebrate and share health, prevention, and partnership. The Better Health Program focuses on the whole person, and healthy aging is a choice that requires nurturing of the body, mind, and spirit.
