Pittsburgh, PA, May 26, 2017 --(PR.com)-- The Allegheny County Health Department (ACHD)
announced Wellbridge Health is the newest company to be designated as a Live Well Allegheny
Workplace. With each new Live Well Allegheny commitment we are closer to our goal of surrounding
Allegheny County residents with healthy choices where they live, work and learn, said Dr. Karen
Hacker, Director of the Allegheny County Health Department. Wellbridge Health, a care management
solutions company, prioritizes preventative healthcare for their clients and employees. As a Live Well
Allegheny Workplace, Wellbridge Health is committed to creating a healthy, mindful, and active
environment for employees. The organization will establish an Employee Wellness Committee to
facilitate wellness in-services and host healthy pot-luck lunches periodically. In addition, they will
encourage employees to incorporate more whole foods in their diets, consume 64oz/day water and avoid
junk foods. Wellbridge Health will also increase activity by initiating a walking club, encouraging
workplace exercise and implementing wellness challenges. With a focus on preventative care, Wellbridge
Health encourages all employees to have regular primary care and dental visits, as well as offering regular
blood pressure screenings. The organization promotes mindfulness by promoting activities such as yoga
practice, meditation, and stress management. We are thrilled and honored to be given the recognition of
a 'LiveWell' workplace, stated Cynthia Zydel, CEO at Wellbridge Health. Our commitment to the
health and well-being of our employees is extremely important to us and this initiative is a step in the
right direction. Participants in the Live Well Allegheny campaign work with Health Department's staff.
While monetary resources are not part of the initiative, participating workplaces can receive materials,
information and collateral items to promote the campaign and their individual efforts to live well. Live
Well Allegheny was launched in January 2014 as a comprehensive, innovative strategy on wellness that
embraces a broad concept of living well to include physical health, mental wellness, personal and
community safety, prevention and preparedness, and much more. The effort is being led by the Board of
