A healthy body and a healthy attitude go together, and together they mean
better, more productive employees. The award-winning strategy for improving
population health begins with Independence Health System employees and
extends into the community. Identified locally as a Healthiest Employer
in Western Pennsylvania since 2011, Independence Health System (formerly
Excela Health) is ranked among the nation’s Healthiest 100 Workplaces,
and recognized as a Community Health Champion by the Hospital and Healthsystem
Association of Pennsylvania.
Programs are developed and led by licensed professionals and aimed at making
sure employees become healthy and remain healthy. Offerings range from
wellness screenings, wellness fairs and coaching, to fitness classes and
programs on nutrition and weight management, plus support groups on a
variety of specialized areas. The programs are flexible and tailored to
individual needs – from one-time “Lunch & Learn”
educational conversations at the worksite to ongoing fitness and exercise
classes at our campuses.
