Check Out the New Well-being Hub!

A well-being hub is now on Inside Carilion and offers easy-to-navigate resources that will help you develop and thrive. Prioritizing our well-being (and helping our coworkers do the same) is an important way for us to care for our patients and our community!

When we talk about well-being, most people think of physical wellness or health—but it is about far more than just the foods you eat or how often you move. Well-being actually has seven different parts! On the well-being hub, you’ll find information on each part, what is available to you and what is going on across the organization, including:

• Your physical health – Wellness On Demand, Wellness center discounts, Virgin Pulse
• Your mental health – EAP, TRUST Team, Stress First-Aid training
• Your financial health – Financial coaching, retirement educator, Employee Emergency Fund
• Your occupational health – Institute for Leadership Effectiveness, Police and Security Services
• Your environmental health – Urban Farm, Efficiency and Sustainability, Healing Arts
• Your social health – DAISY and BEE awards, Wow Wall, employee resource groups
• Your cultural health – Diversity and Inclusion

“I hope that this hub serves as a launching pad for new and ongoing conversations about what our teams need to thrive,” said Kim Butterfield,  who was hired as the well-being coordinator in January. “It is a place for people to plug in, find support and get involved.”

The well-being hub is just the beginning! Stay tuned to learn about pilot programs and expanded well-being offerings in the weeks and months to come. Make sure to add the Well-being hub as one of your Quicklinks so you can access it directly from your Inside Carilion homepage. Just click the "Add Quicklink" button at the top of the page.
