WELLNESS Matters

Being well goes beyond physical health. It includes financial security, satisfaction at work, and balance in your personal life – all the things that affect your sense of well-being.

At University Hospitals, we recognize the diversity of needs of employees and their families and offer a wide range of comprehensive, valuable and market-competitive benefits and programs. We are committed to providing employees with the information, resources and support they need to achieve their personal health and wellness goals.

The UH Wellness program provides tools and incentives to encourage employees and their spouses or same-sex domestic partners to maintain an active lifestyle and stay healthy. Healthy activities are tracked online and quarterly rewards are awarded based on achievement of certain levels.
