Nelson County Focus Group Results2012

• Weight and Obesity– This issue can be ameliorated through education

• Nutritional education has helped before• Participants only knew of one rural health class

available to the community– Poverty contributes to this problem – people

purchase foods that are cheaper rather than healthier

– A lack of walking trails/sidewalks is a barrier to becoming fit within the community


• Transportation– Participants reported being unable to use resources

offered, mainly due to limits to their use • e.g., solely for medical appointments, always booked, not

enough time, and not enough volunteers– One solution suggested was a more informal system

in which community residents would be able to carpool, and those with cars could offer to take those without


• Alcohol and Drug Use– It is a cultural issue: parents are enabling their

children – making it a generational problem – and alcoholism is culturally engrained in the population

– The problem may be due to a lack of activities available for community members to be involved in

– Though people are more educated about the issue, drinking and driving is a major concern in the community
