It has been advocated that physical activity of patients be included as the “5th Vital Sign” with patient encounters. Bike Walk Wichita, in collaboration with the Medical Society of Sedgwick County and the Kansas Academy of Family Physicians, has a Prescription for Walking which can be downloaded and used with your patients.  It can be personalized for your office.

There are also numerous links for patient use on the Walk section of our website.  Feel free to refer your patients to this for additional information and tips for getting started.
