Health Risk Assessments
This comprehensive health assessment measures lifestyle, health factors and interest in changing behaviors. This will identify the participant’s level of risk in a variety of health factors. Data is gathered and developed using proven scientific guidelines and advanced diagnostic tools for the optimal health of each employee, while maintaining confidentiality. Each participant will receive a detailed confidential report. An executive summary is provided and includes a customized aggregate report identifying high risk areas of concern. This base of information is used to build an effective wellness program tailored to those specific areas of concern. Health Profiles - $5 per employee This is a less involved health assessment in which participants answer questions on line or on a standard questionnaire. The answers are used to generate a health profile that will identify health risks for the individual and offer suggestions on how to make improvements. Nutrition, women and heart disease, stress, health age, cancer, coronary risk, exercise, and osteoporosis are each addressed in separate profiles. The results can be given immediately.

Awareness Tools
This is an interactive presentation that teaches proper hand washing technique. Areas of the hand missed in routine hand washing will glow brightly under the special light. This is an opportunity to improve technique and become educated about the importance of effective hand washing. Proper cleansing of the hands has been shown to drastically reduce bacteria and germ transmission. Sun Exposure Unseen damage is hidden under the top layer of the skin and revealed with our DermaScan. The damaged skin, caused by unprotected exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays, is seen by the participant. We take this opportunity to educate about skin cancer and the importance of being protected using sunscreen lotions, clothing and headwear. Stress Dots A Stress Dot is applied to the back part of the hand. The body’s response to stress will cause a change in colors. This bio-feed back tool will help the participant to understand the affects of stress on the body. This is a great tool for teaching stress reduction techniques. Alcohol Awareness Goggles This awareness booth will help participants understand how quickly the effects of alcohol can create devastating consequences for anyone who drives or works under the influence. The goggles cause distorted vision and behaviors that are similar to someone under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. By sliding on the goggles, the participant will suddenly feel as if they have a blood alcohol concentration (B.A.C.) ranging from 0.06-0.2. Simple tasks are attempted to demonstrate the impairment at each level.
Screenings and education programs can be tailored upon request.
