Stepping Stones Pedometers
Walking 10,000 steps a day is a proven method for reducing the incidence of heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis and colon cancer. Pedometers, or step counters, that you wear at your waistline, help motivate members to walk the recommended daily amount. The Pathways Program offers pedometers as part of a structured program.
Nutrition
Eating 5 daily servings of fruits and vegetables has been scientifically proven to reduce the chances of getting cancer, heart disease and diabetes. The Pathways program has a variety of “5 a day” materials including brochures and fruit and veggie pens.
Health Incentive Programs
Pathways offers participants in our health screens a variety of incentives including educational materials. All materials relate to Pathways activities and promote healthy behaviors.
