WHAT DOES AZ HEALTHLINKS OFFER?
AZ HealthLinks offers a variety of programs that will create awareness and inspire your employees to achieve better health. Tobacco use has serious health consequences, not just to smokers but also to co-workers exposed to secondhand smoke. We offer expertise for creating a smoke-free work environment, including education on the hazards of smoking and secondhand smoke. Physical activity not only helps manage weight, but also reduces risk for cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. We offer a variety of physical activity programs that range from hands on and interactive, to informative presentations that will educate and motivate employees to reach their fitness goals. Proper nutrition can help maintain a healthy weight and may decrease the risk for certain types of cancers and other chronic diseases. We offer programs and information that will show your employees how to make delicious and beneficial food choices. We can also “link” your worksite to other programs and services that may be available through our partner organizations. Ask your AZ HealthLinks representative for details. |
