Prime Advertising & Design Launches a Wellness Program

Prime Advertising & Design Launches a Wellness Program

The Prime Wellness Program was designed to encourage employees to incorporate healthy components into their lifestyle.

Maple Grove (PRWEB) June 3, 2005

Tuesday, April 20th marked the start of an exciting new addition at Prime Advertising & Design: the Wellness Program. The Prime Wellness Program was designed to encourage employees to incorporate healthy components into their lifestyle. What is really great about PrimeÂ’s Wellness Program is the fact that Prime doesnÂ’t solely focus on the prominent components of health: diet and exercise. Prime instead focuses on wellness as being an all-encompassing part of life. This is shown as the program also promotes health education, a supportive environment, and fun group outings!

The Wellness Program was kicked off by an all-company potluck in which each employee contributed a healthy dish. Some of the favorite dishes included: cashew chicken, a raspberry salad, and a decadent Jell-O angel food cake. The potluck was a huge hit! Mark Murray commented “This was the best potluck we’ve had yet!” Who knew eating healthy was so fun!

In carrying on with the wellness theme, the kickoff provided nourishment for the brain, as well as the body. Carolyn Thorp, the parish nurse at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Brooklyn Park, informed the group on the importance of living wills and the procedure of obtaining one as part of her Five Wishes® Presentation. Julie Shay and Jody Niskanen, founders of the Prime Wellness Program, followed revealing the details of the program. As part of the program, employees are encouraged to incorporate wellness into their daily lifestyle to obtain points and work towards incentives. Each employee was then given a pedometer to help keep track of their daily steps, as a way to earn points.

The launching of the Prime Wellness Program was a huge success and the program will continue to enrich the lives of the employees.
