In response to the need to educate employees in health insurance trends, the Wellness team was formed in early 2003. Beginning in 2004, working hand in hand with HighMark Blue Cross Blue Shield, the Wellness team sponsored programs in Managing Stress, Eat Well for Life, and HeartBeats. The most popular program to date, 10,000 Steps, started with 88 participants on September 1. During August the team conducted summer picnics at the three facilities. Of course, the menu provided health food options.Employees are provided with information and updates on a quarterly basis through the Wellness Watch newsletter. The future is currently being planned with expectations of exciting new programs and events.
Mission statement: “Opportunities will be provided to assist the employees of Redstone Highlands in enhancing their health and well being both personally and professionally. Through education, healthier lifestyle choices can be achieved.”
