Anyone who missed the chance to "Know Your Numbers" during the Open Enrollment and Wellness Fairs held on each campus has one more opportunity on Dec. 10 from 7:30 to 10:30 a.m. Register today while appointments are still available.
All full-time, benefits-eligible employees qualify for a free annual health screening. You do not have to be covered by one of the university health plans. In preparation for the health screening, participants must fast for 8-10 hours before their onsite screening. Please note that the blood draw is via a simple finger stick. Confidential results will be provided for the following:
- Glucose
- Total cholesterol, including HDL and LDL
- Triglycerides
- Blood pressure
- Body mass index
Scheduling of your screening appointment must be completed on Be Well Solutions' website at . Be Well is Kent State's wellness partner that provides confidential health screenings and a variety of resources to Kent State employees onsite and through its secure Web portal. If you are not already registered on Be Well Solutions' website, view the instructions on how to register on the OneWellU website.
All employees who complete the personal health risk assessment (a confidential online assessment on the Be Well Web portal) and screening for the first time will receive a free MOVBand wrist-worn activity tracker. Employees who complete their second-annual health screening will receive a free $25 gift card for Dick's Sporting Goods. Employees are encouraged to have a screening once annually.
