You may be asking yourself what is the best thing we can do to improve our health, what would have the biggest return on investment? EXERCISE!  Little things can help every employee get up and be more active.

  What a year of training we have for you!

 Thank you to the more than fifty hospitals in NC who have opted to renew their license to WorkHealthy America^SM! Starting in July, 2012, WorkHealthy America^SM will also map the progress of all subscribers, including state and local governments, schools, non-profits and private businesses.  Are you ready for the map? 

We have mapped hospital progress for five years, showing where hospitals are in their efforts to get A’s in Tobacco or Nutrition. We recently updated and automated those maps, and are now beginning the same initiative with all businesses in WorkHealthy America. In July, 2012, we will launch these NEW WorkHealthy maps, and recognize your success and progress.

This is a time of year for looking back on the year past, celebrating our accomplishments, and planning for the year moving forward. And setting resolutions, of course

The holidays are a time when wellness takes a backseat to celebrations and decadence. 

There's no market for healthy? No way! A recent study found that companies that provide more healthy products do better financially. Is this really suprising? 

On Friday, October 28, NC Prevention Partners was recognized by US Department of Health and Human Services as one ofeight winners of the 2011 Healthy Living Innovations award for our work on the Red Apple Healthy Hospital Initiative.

 We are planning for 2012 and we need your input-- what types of web-based trainings do you want? Share your thoughts!
