A New Orriant Case Study Demonstrates the Success of Wellness Incentives Offered by Corporate Wellness Programs
Salt Lake City, Utah (PRWEB) August 01, 2013 -- In order to lower the cost of healthcare, businesses are turning towards company wellness programs. Designed to set up an outline of healthy living, Orriant programs focus on improving health awareness and quality of life. Recent results from a new case study are especially motivating for employers looking to implement a program that assists in weight loss. Nancy, an Orriant participant, has learned to make healthier decisions and how to incorporate them into her daily life. Her numerous benefits include a more active lifestyle, additional weight loss, and lower employee healthcare costs.
Nancy is a full time employee at a large medical center where she works long hours while providing for a large family. Before beginning the Orriant programs, she had begun a weight loss journey that found her 50 lbs lighter. Still, she wanted something that would give her even more of a motivational push, along with providing wellness incentives. When her company partnered with Orriant, Nancy found that motivation with her health coach, Chandra. All Orriant Health Coaches have a degree in a health-related field and are certified to give participants premium service that produces measurable results.
Chandra worked with Nancy to implement a reasonable but challenging eating and exercise routine. Keeping her family in mind, Nancy began cooking healthier meals and increased her activity level. Nancy is reaping the benefits of additional weight loss; down almost another 20 lbs. She is easing away from medication for diabetes, heart disease and blood pressure. Due to the benefits of these wellness incentives from Orriant’s company wellness programs, Nancy is happy with her results.
Along with lower employee healthcare costs, participants are seeing improved quality of life. Nancy attributes her successful results to her coach. “She has been my support by giving me encouragement to keep at it.” With the motivation of her family and the support of Orriatn, Nancy continues to make healthy changes and reach new goals. “It keeps reminding you how important your health is and that you are the one controlling it.”
As more successful results continue to arise within the concept of company wellness programs, Orriant continues providing clients with a support structure that motivates them as an individual. As with Nancy’s results, lower employee healthcare costs and reducing the need for doctor’s visits are among the benefits for implementing Orriant’s programs. These benefits prove to be motivating reasons for employers to depend on accountability-based plans.
