Health Coaching
"I am thrilled to have a coach! I don't see a doctor very often and it really helps to have someone to talk to about health issues. My coach is very approachable, helpful and encouraging! I love this program! Thank you!"
Why health coaching?
The It's Your Life health coaching model is a proactive approach to managing health by bringing the expertise and support of a health professional directly to your workforce. Health coaching can take place on-site, by telephone or can be web-based. It’s the personalized one-on-one approach that makes the difference. The individualized program drives commitment, accountability, and results!
How does health coaching work?
- Our health education specialists actively engage all employees who participate in the It's Your Life program, not just the ones at higher risk.
- After It’s Your Life participants access their personal health profiles, they will meet one-on-one with their health coach to review the findings.
- The experienced staff of It's Your Life utilize knowledge in exercise science, nutrition, tobacco cessation, stress management and behavior modification to help each participant develop a Personal Wellness Plan that sets personal health goals and identifies strategies to help reach those goals.
- Health coaches provide support and direction throughout the year, make referrals to other health professionals as needed and provide targeted educational resources.
It's Your Life health coaching goals are to:
- Help keep healthy individuals on track to remain healthy
- Intervene at early stages to help reduce or eliminate identified risks
- Encourage participants to work with their healthcare team to manage on-going health conditions
