Thinking about wellness programming, but not sure where to start? Want to help employees improve their lifestyles, but not sure how? Your answer can be found in a tool called a Health Risk Assessment (HRA).

A HRA screens participants for health risk factors that can lead to future disease. With knowledge of risk factors, participants can start taking steps towards changing lifestyle habits to improve those risks. Health management starts with health awareness.

This comprehensive tool is convenient and completely confidential. Holy Family Memorial - Work Health Options’ Wellness Team will conduct HRAs on-site at your facility. It is a two-step process by which measurements and a blood sample are taken at the first visit, and the second visit is a one-on-one meeting to discuss results with the participant. All results are kept confidential. At the one-on-one meeting, a wellness professional will talk with the participant about current lifestyle behaviors and how those could be modified to reduce health risks.

This tool also includes an Executive Summary to give a snapshot of the workforce’s risk factors. Together with participants motivated to make change, and information from the Executive Summary, a wellness plan can be developed to improve the highest risk factors; resulting in a healthier and more productive workforce.
