Abstract:

Hospital wellness programs help their own employees and those of regional businesses focus on healthy lifestyles, which include healthy eating, exercise, and disease management. Maurer examines wellness programs: WakeMed's, which began in 1986, in Raleigh; Duke University Medical Center's program, now in operation for twenty-one years, in Durham; and Mission Hospital's, which began eight years ago, in Asheville.
