Main St., is hosting various classes in the month of October with many dedicated to breast cancer awareness. The classes are $10 each, but for $49 a person can attend all of them. Oil Well owner Kathy Larson said the classes are part of the store's mis- sion to help people under- stand how to better utilize the oils and vinegars. "It is all about disease prevention, helping peo- ple with their ailments, aches and pains and all of that stems from the little things we do in life," Lar- son said. The numerous classes being offered will incorpo- rate aspects that will allow women to better understand how oil can be used not only in their cooking but also in vari- ous aspects of their lives. Larson has been in the wellness and health edu- cation arena for the last 25 years. She said the classes offered at the Oil Well will be themed after whatever is being focused on nation- ally, such as breast cancer awareness or lung health. To register for a class or learn more, Larson said, stop into the Oil Well or call her at 262-443-4271. — Enterprise Staff New Rogers outpatient facility opens OCONOMOWOC — Rogers Memorial Hospi- tal's 21,000-square-foot facility at 1205 Corporate Center Drive in Oconomowoc officially reopened on Monday. The outpatient services facility will provide conve- nient access for patients as programs move from the main campus of Rogers Behavioral Health. "The Silver Lake Outpa- tient Center gives us the wonderful opportunity to consolidate our ambulatory programming in a single facility just two miles down the road from our main campus," said Suzanne D. Harrison, vice president of Rogers — Oconomowoc operations. "We believe this dedicated treatment space should further enhance the quality care we provide as we endeavor to meet criti- cal mental health care needs in our community." The Silver Lake Center, named for the lake in south- east Oconomowoc, will house all local intensive outpatient and partial hos- pitalization programs. The facility has 12 group therapy rooms, 10 consulta- tion rooms, an art studio room, a dining area, a mul- tipurpose room and more treatment space for patients to work on recov- ery-oriented activities. Harrison said while the location was previously a medical facility, renova- tions have created more open space to allow natural light to filter in. Similar to Rogers' other locations, col- ors and materials have been chosen with an eye toward incorporating the healing powers of nature into the inside environ- ment. "This is a very exciting time for Rogers," Harrison said.
