Providing assistance based on health care needs has to be planned on the employee’s priority. Programs on group dynamics would improve teamwork, communication pattern and goal achieving behaviours. Providing smoking cessation seminars, nutrition classes, weight-loss programs, rewarding the employees with certificates of achievement, lunchtime walking clubs, healthy snacks etc. would increase employee motivation.
Services-projects
Mikkael Foundation undertakes two community projects
1. Developing income-generating opportunities for women in rural villages
This project aims at identifying the available entrepreneurial resources (human resources, raw material and product development skills) in the rural village of Tuticorin district, Tamil Nadu, India. The study will focus on overcoming the barriers for skill development, increasing the motivation among women and stabilize the finance flow in a given family.
2. Prevalence of Substance Abuse disorders among adolescents and males in a community
This project would help the organization to understand the different modes of substance abuse prevalent in society. Skill development like smoking cessation workshops and the formation of support groups are the primary focus to help the community.
Though every person in the community seek treatment in the hospitals, health care workers are the ones who neglect their health to a great extent. Patient load, shift duties and poor self-care leads to fatigue, poor sleeping habits, weight fluctuations and emotional problems like depression.
Employee wellness programs target health workers in a different category. Exercising, eating healthy meals on time, limiting alcohol intake, quitting smoking and weight reduction would improve the quality of life of any given worker.
