Background Information

The Owens Community College Wellness Process Management team was charged with

the mission of identifying current health and wellness practices and then to evaluate and

develop an action plan that would lead to a positive change in the quality of life of our Owens

Community College family.

The health/wellness issue first was identified by the steering committee when an

employee commented that “the walk to and from the parking lot” was often the extent of her

exercise for the day.

Team Members with a wide variety of expertise from both campus sites were recruited

to further develop this concept. The Team first met in early September, 2007 for initial process

management training.

From that time forward, the Team has met every one to two weeks to identify the

current status of health and wellness on campus. The team early on identified the Owens

Health Care Committee as an important resource in developing an overall wellness plan. The

team collaborated with members of the Health Care Committee to develop and make available a

health survey to all Owens Community College Employees.

The results from the above Survey are detailed in the remainder of this document. These

results have served as a foundation for the recommendations and action plan that the Team has

developed.

Definitions*

Wellness Defined†

Wellness as defined by the National Wellness Association is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a more successful existence.

The key words are process, aware, choices and success.

Process means that we never arrive at a point where there is no possibility of Improving. Aware means that we are by our nature continuously seeking more information about how we can improve

Choices mean that we have considered a variety of options and select those that seem to be in our best interest

Success is determined by each individual to be their personal collection of accomplishments for their life

Objectives of a Wellness Program include:

Raise the awareness of staff on the concept and practice of wellness and health

Create opportunities for adoption of healthier choices

Facilitate advancement in life‐long learning and application of wellness lifestyles

Engrafting Wellness into the System

The efforts of the Owens Community College Wellness Process Management Team

can be felt by the entire Owens’ Community. Every individual has a state of health and

wellness and the Team would like to act as an impetus for all employees to improve their

status on the health/wellness continuum.

It is our belief that a variety of departments will need to be involved in the

continuous implementation of our plan. These areas include Human Resources, the fitness

facilities on both campuses, and faculty and students in the Health Sciences areas.

Much work lies ahead, but we believe that we have developed a firm foundation for

helping our employees to integrate a more active health/wellness lifestyle into their daily

work environment.

Acknowledgements

The Owens Community College Wellness Process Management team expresses

thanks to the Process Management Steering Committee for providing us with the

opportunity to participate on this Team and to ultimately bring positive changes to the

quality of life of our Owens Community College family members.

First, a ‘BIG’ thanks goes to Dr. Christa Adams for leading Owens Community College

into this collaborative culture. The support of the Board of Trustees is also essential in

allowing us to move forward.

The knowledge and support provided to us by Dr. Stanley Jensen was integral in

providing us with the necessary tools.

Thank you goes to our entire team for the excellent participation and sharing of

expertise by all. Thanks must also go to all of our managers who have allowed us the time

to participate fully in this wonderful activity.

Finally, our Team Champions ‐‐ Cynthia Eschenburg and Sarah Metzger ‐‐ provided us

with ongoing support and encouragement throughout this process. A special thanks goes

to them both for providing the heart‐healthy treats for the Team Presentation to the

Steering Committee.
