Workplace Wellness 

Why Wellness?

Keeping people healthy and well is critical to the success of RWJMS and makes a significant difference in peoples’ daily lives. When we feel well, it is easier to be productive at work, to be present at work more often, and to be healthier. In addition to those benefits, recent research has found a correlation between best practice wellness programs and greater job satisfaction; improved morale; and increased engagement. When we invest in our people and encourage wellness program participation, all of these outcomes are expected.  RWJMS views the implementation of a school-wide wellness program as a necessity. Our vision is focused on creating a culture of health and well-being throughout the Medical School. Our goal is to promote healthy lifestyles which form a positive, successful, supportive, energetic and well workplace.
