Making lifestyle improvements can be difficult. A health coach can help a person identify individual strengths, empowering them to focus on lifestyle-related behaviors that the individual wants to – and can – change.
Health coaching – especially when preceded by a health risk assessment – is a proven way to reduce health claims, workers' compensation claims, and absenteeism due to illness and disability. Our Health Coaching program is a win-win solution for both you and your employees.
•
Employees are more likely to make lifestyle changes and stay on track with their health goals – whether it's to lose weight, get fit, or quit smoking – when a health coach is involved.
•
Employers enjoy the benefits of healthier employees and lower illness-related costs, which translate into a positive economic return on your worksite wellness investment.

Trust - Participants develop a trusting relationship with their coach and are more likely to openly discuss their health problems – a very big key to positive behavior change.
