At TVH, we offer our employees a variety of tools to support a healthy lifestyle.
Each quarter, TVH offers a walking challenge for all employees to participate in. The first challenge of 2019 was the Walk This Way challenge. Employees from across the Americas were challenged to get active, compete with co-workers and earn points for our company award program. The ultimate goal is to keep employees moving throughout the year with a simple reminder that daily choices matter. A successful challenge requires employees to log a minimum of 8,000 daily average steps during 4 weeks. Additional Nudge Points are given for those who reach a 10k, 12k or, 15k daily step average. TVH also recognizes the Top 20 Steppers for each challenge with a Top Stepper t-shirt.
In addition to fitness challenges, TVHNudge also brings in a variety of speakers that focus on health and wellness topics. February’s monthly speaker will focus on muscle mobility. During this presentation, Doctors Mike and Steve Flanery, will share information on how to improve muscle movement using the Active Release Technique, a manual therapy to soften tissue structures of the body, and Accelerated Recovery Performance, a system that uses a direct current, passed through the body by pads on the skin.
In March, we will focus on nutrition, a topic that is of great interest to our employees. Donna Kelly, a knowledgeable pharmacist and integrative nutrition health coach, will explain how changing your eating habits, can optimize sleep, help manage stress and possibly revert diseases instead of just managing it.
At TVH, we recognize that health and wellness leads to optimal employee performance, and the health of our staff ensures the health of our company.
