Walgreens wants their employees and their customers to be healthy. Every Sunday at 8:30 on Lifetime Walgreens airs a show called Health Corner. This show focuses on ways that Americans can stay healthy.
The show covers a variety of different topics from how to avoid poison ivy to tips on how to stay healthy in your busy life. To find out more about the show you can visit http://healthcorner.walgreens.com/display/router.aspx. I love the show. It is enlightening and entertaining!
In the 2007 September/October issue of Walgreen World it talks about ways that employees can stay healthy while at work. Some of the things they talked about are avoiding soda while at work, eating a healthier breakfast, choosing healthier lunch and snack options, and exercising while on break. They suggested walking to a nearby restaurant instead of driving. That is something that I had never considered. I really enjoyed reading the different suggestions and learned a lot of ways to stay healthy at work.
Walgreens also provides excellent health benefits that are available after three months with the company. They offer medical, dental, prescription, and life insurance coverage. You do not have to work full time to receive all of these great benefits. This is helpful to me and many of the people I work with because we are still in college and it is not possible for us to work full time.
Walgreens also makes it easy for customers to stay healthy. The flu season is coming up and Walgreens is ready. Over 800 pharmacists are prepared to administer flu vaccinations right in your local Walgreens store. Walgreens also has many take care clinics. These are located in stores and allow patients to just walk in and see a nurse practitioner. Home Health Care and Counseling are also some tools provided by Walgreens so that customers and employees can stay healthy.
