Faculty and staff, you now have a great new resource for maintaining health and well-being! Your Plan for Health has just recently launched their new website, designed to help YOU as a faculty or staff member here at Ohio State reach your fitness and health goals.
What to look for on the new site:
New
Personal Health & Well-Being Assessment (PHA)
- The new PHA was
designed to take a holistic look at health AND overall well-being;
- It has 146
questions and takes about 20 minutes to complete;
- Biometric health
values obtained during a free, on-campus Biometric Health Screening are still automatically
uploaded by a Health Plan nurse into the user’s PHA in the portal;
- Health values
obtained during a visit with a personal physician must still be entered into
the PHA by the user.
Set
your goals, track your progress
- The new site
provides a unique, interactive, and personalized experience;
- Compete with
friends in healthy challenges established by Ohio State, or create your own;
- Set personal
health goals to address areas in which you’d like to improve;
- It’s easy to
track and monitor your progress – the system can sync up with various fitness
devices (e.g., FitBit, Nike+, FitLinxx) and mobile apps (e.g., RunKeeper);
- Mobile device
integration and responsive design – you can record your healthy actions on your
desktop, tablet, or smartphone and have the same great experience.
