Did you, your department, a coworker, or another department recently complete an initiative or project that led to a positive impact on the well-being of their colleagues? If so, complete a nomination or application for the Well-being Hero Awards (Individual & Team) and Well-being Warrior Award!

Well-being Hero Awards are peer selected awards for any individual, unit, or department that champions the well-being of our employees above and beyond the call of duty. They take accountability of their role in helping Carilion advance the health and well-being of our workforce, creating opportunities for connection and meaning in our shared work, and advocating for health-focused changes in our workplace.

Examples include:

• Organizing a wellness fair event for their department or facility
• Providing structured wellness-focused activities to encourage healthy choices
• Creating new opportunities to foster appreciation, recognition, and community at work

We created the Well-being Warrior Award to recognize individuals who have invested into their own personal well-being. Examples could include individuals who have pursued a weight loss journey, taken up a new wellness practice or hobby, or achieved a wellness related goal. Self-nominations are encouraged! 

A panel of judges will vote on deserving individuals, departments, and units to receive the award based on the quality, creativity, and impact of initiatives implemented on their unit.
