Cleveland Clinic Offers Free Weight Watchers, More

As the guidepost in the medical community, particularly the most highly respected cardiac care provider, the Cleveland Clinic, which I happen to live fairly close to, all things considered, is offering their employees free health programs, including free Weight Watchers, for those who choose, as an effort to strive to be the epitome of the ultimate health institution by showing that they want their employees to be healthy so they can supply the best healthcare to their patients.

They stand by the credo that a happier and healthier employee provides the best healthcare possible to their patients, and not only do they offer free programs to help citizens lose weight and maintain healthy weights, but they plus offer smoking cessation programs for those who want to quit smoking, and they actually do not hire smokers to start with (I guess that means their smoking cessation programs are for society who started smoking after they started the job?)

At any rate, the Cleveland Clinic is definitely setting the standard in health care in so many fields and is world reknowned for being an excellent facility for those who are sick, need the best healthcare possible, and for experimentation and medical research.  that just goes to show that they have given a whole new level of commitment to their patients, by making certain their staff is well cared for so they in turn give their patients top notch care.

Hopefully other large companies, particularly those in the service industries, will follow suit and start offering employees free wellness and health programs, and include weight loss in these curriculums, particularly since obesity is still such a huge problem here in the US.
