Summary

This study tested a worksite wellness program designed to reduce stress and improve cardiovascular health among long-term care workers. 159 staff and residents participated. The program included health promotion and safety education, and researchers also looked at whether healthier staff could positively influence residents' habits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Worksite wellness program (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If successful, this program could offer a practical way to improve heart health and reduce stress for healthcare workers, and possibly inspire healthier habits in residents.
What could go wrong
This was a small feasibility study, so results may not apply to all workplaces. The program's impact on residents is indirect and uncertain.
