Employers

Employers play an important role in improving the lives of their employees and their families. A worksite wellness program provides an avenue to share about important health issues and make positive changes to enhance their total well-being.

Advance Care Planning is a serious topic and can have a positive impact in the lives of your employees and their family and friends. Completing an Advance Directive is an important part of worksite wellness program.

Knowing that you have provided clear directions about who will speak for you and the type of care you want in the future if you cannot speak for yourself can greatly reduce stress and provide peace of mind. That’s a great value for employees and their families.
