The foundation of any successful organization is its employees. To ensure consistent, high-quality patient care, hospital staff members must stay healthy, energetic and engaged. Many members of America’s Essential Hospitals, formerly the National Association of Public Hospitals and Health Systems, have implemented programs to promote a healthy lifestyle among staff members and throughout their communities. From exercise and nutrition challenges to benefit plan incentives, these programs have improved employees’ health, boosted their productivity and cut organizational health care costs.
