About Working Well
WorkHealthy AmericaSM
Working Well provides all South Carolina hospitals with access to
WorkHealthy AmericaSM, NC Prevention Partners’ signature product that allows worksites to assess their policies, environments and benefits and implement changes that help their employees make healthy choices. For information about how to access WorkHealthy America
SM, interested South Carolina hospitals should contact
Working Well staff at the South Carolina Hospital Association using the information provided below.
Participating hospitals can also log on to the reoccurring “Making Wellness Work” webinars, which are listed on the NC Prevention Partners
events calendar to learn about using WorkHealthy America
SM to help hospital employees lead healthier and more productive lives.
Available resources
Hospitals participating in Working Well are part of a community of learning. Working Well is intended to provide a venue for sharing best practices, and all participating hospitals have access to hundreds of tools that NC Prevention Partners has collected over years of working with hospitals to support worksite wellness.
Site visits
Working Well staff from the South Carolina Hospital Association are available to conduct site visits to review a hospital’s current status (using the results of the WorkHealthy AmericaSM assessment), goals (based on WorkHealthy AmericaSM recommendations and action plans), available resources and any barriers and challenges.
Webinar series
Working Well also provides a variety of technical assistance through a webinar series. Upcoming webinars are listed on the NC Prevention Partners
events calendar.
