Essi Systems® CEO Esther M. Orioli spoke on employee stress mastery, building resiliency, and creating lasting changes in behavior at the Employee Health Promotion Disease Prevention Program hosted by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Midwest Health Care Network (VISN 23). The conference provided professional development training to VISN 23 wellness coaches and employee health staff on how to implement and maintain employee health promotion and disease prevention programs.
VISN 23 selected Essi Systems as the sole source provider for their stress management and behavior change tools for VHA's pilot program. 21 Day Club™, featuring StressMap® Online, helps employees measure stress and develop new behaviors to increase personal and job satisfaction to decrease the direct and indirect costs associated with stress. VISN 23 is one of 21 organizations of the U. S. Department of Veterans Affairs Health Administration. It provides health care services to veterans in Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota.
"VISN 23 is taking a proactive and innovative approach to working with their employees' health and wellness issues," said Ms. Orioli. "These range from stress mastery and behavior change to nutrition, weight loss, fitness and smoking cessation. Stress, unlike any of these other factors, affects every aspect of a person's life. It's a health issue. It's a productivity issue. It's a quality of life issue. It's a legal issue. It's a medical issue. It's a financial issue. It's a relationship issue. It's a family issue. StressMap and 21 Day Club help employees make changes in those aspects of their life that are important to them."
