Online Assessments

Our assessments, screenings and profiles are designed to put critical health data at your fingertips. By identifying at-risk populations within your organization, you are better equipped to educate employees and make positive changes. Using detailed reporting tools, you will have the information you need to design customized programs and address identified risk factors. You can also track the progress of your at-risk members and optimize programs to fit their needs. With this approach, you can reduce costs while enhancing engagement, productivity, employee health and more.

Through these proposed assessments, participants increase awareness, gain an understanding of their present reality and lifestyle, set a benchmark for themselves and identify their priorities and issues to address in their lives. The company receives valuable aggregate data on population trends, interests and specific work unit health in which to create effective programs and achieve the desired results.

There are many types of Assessments and Profiles available. Here are some of the more popular ones:

1. Needs and Interest Survey
2. Health Risk Assessment (Standard and University of Michigan comprehensive)
3. Resilience and Wellbeing profiler
4. Biometric Health Screens
5. Onsite Fitness testing

Fee-based on volume to be determined.

Population Interest and Habits Survey

 This electronic Survey summarizes group health habits such as time of exercise, most popular types of activity, group class and workshop references, barriers to activity and healthy living, exercise equipment preference, an idea of commitment level, program preferences and other areas VPD would like to determine as related to company objectives, wellness and services of interest.

Health Risk Assessment

This is a gold standard in a corporate wellness program and personal change. Levels of health risk for exercise, consumption, stress, active living, and healthy choices are among the key indicators of this inventory. We recommend an interactive as a possible program that calls for self-directed use and that can be complemented by online resources, lifestyle tools, custom-tailored programs and fitness, health and wellness services.

These questionnaires are confidential are reusable throughout the year and track group trends and personal habits change over time. This program is available online for easy access and user-friendliness. We understand that the internal HRA is currently available for all employees. 

Health Fairs

We have a vast experience with developing, coordinating, organizing, attending, supporting or managing health fairs.

We recommend generating one to two health fairs per year as they draw in more attention and interest from those who would not necessarily participate in the fitness centres until they felt comfortable about the support the guidance they would receive.

This allows for more face to face interaction between the fitness coordinators and the infrequent gym-goers or general population.

Health fairs cover a full scope of fitness, health and wellness information, education and interaction. Blood pressure, dietitian, games, community services, food and drink samples, nutrition and fitness services and other areas of interest specific to that population can be included. Our virtual services can be used for a virtual health fair and that they can be added to the wellness portal for tracking and incentives for a seamless user experience.

In this COVID climate, the health fairs would be virtual with a Zoom (or other video medium) platform that allows interaction in different “virtual rooms” and online locations.

Examples:
• Cooking demo,
• Health and wellness coaching session (also telephonic)
• Short 15-minute webinars or 1-hour lunch n learns
• Online mental health and resilience quiz and other assessments
• Virtual mindfulness and meditation class
• Virtual yoga class
• Nutrition coaching
• Interactive gamified challenges for prizes
• Virtual challenges – balancing, planks, etc. For prizes
• Questionnaires and online assessments.
• Access to our interactive wellness site for videos, blogs, articles.

Other options to be discussed with client representatives.

FEE ESTIMATE

The Services above can be adjusted as a “one-off” service or comprehensive wellness solution. These rates are general and will be applied accordingly upon further discussions.

For ongoing, multiple services:

If there is more than a single event or involves ongoing, multiple services, there may be more coordination and account management required. For this, there is much work to be done during a start up as a foundation for long-term sustainability and a successful program. Thus, we have established a “two stage” approach for clarity and comparisons over the year:

Stage 1 – Review and development of initial programs and setup

Stage 2 – Ongoing programs for 12 months after Stage 1 if required depending on the extent of the services required.

Stage 1: Program Development, Planning and Data Collection

Planning and program development are a combination of information collection and sharing between “health promotion”, IT / portal support and the client’s Wellness Project representatives.

Standard program planning and development process includes the following unless only a few services (Classes and webinars for example) are required. In that case preparing and launching the service(s) is a much simpler and quicker process.

1. Wellness portal customization and development (as required)
2. Strategy meetings with the Wellness Committee / company representatives
3. Data Collection – Survey, Health Screens / Biometrics, Health Risk Assessment (HRA)
4. Reporting
5. Program targeting and plan
6. Program review and discussions
7. Estimate review and revision as required
8. Program launch
9. Strategy Meetings

This first stage will involve initial meetings to script out the precise plan and timeline for the program. Depending on the extent of the plan, this process could just take one to two meetings or a couple of hours each.

Stage 2 – Program Implementation

We recommend the following program components and services in the first year as a simple strategy to maximize retention, motivation, participation, and success.

Ongoing Program Coordination and Management

Core Program

1. Account/Program Management and Administration / meetings
2. Customer Care, IT support and management
3. Reports to AON/ Client management.
4. Evaluation and program adjustment
5. Ongoing programs and meetings

These “account management” services are a cornerstone of the ongoing coordination and sustainability of a successful program.
