Wellness Center

Region 8 Mental Health offers an on-site Wellness Center to employees to promote a healthy lifestyle. Each facility is complete with dual purpose strength training machines, multiple treadmills, cross trainers and recumbent bikes with individual entertainment.

Other amenities include a locker area with showers and dressing rooms as well as an aerobic workout area. In addition, a supervised play area for children of employees is available during evenings and weekends.

Region 8 is proud to make these services available because it just makes sense to encourage healthy lifestyles for our employees. Along with personal benefits from exercising, we are confident that employees will be better equipped to deal with workday pressures and stay more focused. Not only do we believe that it helps them feel better about themselves, but it also increases morale, productivity, and helps reduce health care costs down the road.
