MCC offers lifestyle coaching to employees

The MCC Wellness Program is now offering Face-to-Face Lifestyle Coaching as part of the Blue Cross Blue Shield (BC/BS) health care plan. Employees who are members of the BC/BS insurance plan now have the opportunity to meet monthly, at no cost, with a certified health coach, who is trained in psychology and health management.

If enough employees are interested in the program, the Face-to-Face coach will be conveniently scheduled at as many campuses that have participants. The coaches will work one-on-one with employees in 25 minute sessions to help develop personalized goals in a number of areas.

· Assistance in developing a personalized plan to improve health risks and changing long-held behaviors and habits
· Support and guidance during initial stages of change – which is a crucial time in behavior modification process
· Provide ongoing support and assistance to help you meet identified short and long-term goals
· Work to address environmental triggers that may interfere with goals
· Help identify ways to avoid triggers or develop new responses to triggers

Overall wellness is not related to one single health factor, but a combination of different physical and emotional health areas. Coaches will help combine these different factors into your own customized wellness plan to reach your goals.

Before making arrangements for a coach to come to MCC, we need to identify the levels of interest of the employees. Please complete this four question survey by clicking this link.

Registration will begin mid-January - just in time for New Year’s resolutions! This might be the year you can make those goals happen!
