| Small Changes for
Health is a wellness program designed for the
Department of Health employees in 2003. First used in calendar
year 2004, Small Changes for Health focuses
on trying out small, health-related behaviors for a week. Once
employees have success with the small, weekly changes, they
are motivated to continue those changes and make other beneficial
ones. The goal is an overall improvement in health status.
This program lasts throughout the year (52-weeks) and changes
span the categories of nutrition, physical fitness, stress & relaxation,
and health screenings, as well as goal setting & rewards. Small
Changes for Health 2006 is available through
the DOH website and all employees are encouraged to participate
in this free program. If you have any questions
about this program, please contact Lori Jones, at 314/612-5400. |
