February 17, 2023 – Cigna has selected Brighton Hospice as a recipient of their Bronze level Healthy Workforce Designation for demonstrating a strong commitment to improving the health and well-being of its employees through a workplace wellness program.

 

Brighton Hospice is more focused than ever on addressing the health and well-being of its team members. Brighton Hospice understands that there is a direct link to productivity, happiness, and health. The well-being of team members plays a vital role in the company’s ability to care for patients and their families. The Brighton Hospice wellness program focuses on overall health, well-being, mental health, exercise, and education.

“At Brighton Hospice, our Leadership team believes in taking care of our Clinical staff so they can focus on patient care. The health and well-being of our team will remain a priority to ensure that we are giving them as much support as they are giving to our patients and their families,” said Brooke Bradshaw, Director of Human Resources, “We are so excited to be recognized with the Cigna Healthy Workforce Designation and welcome the challenge to continue building and improving wellness resources for our amazing Brighton team!”

 

Investing in an effective workplace well-being program drives value for employers. Senior executives surveyed as part of an Economist Impact study commissioned by Cigna reported greater productivity, stronger staff morale and motivation, and greater retention and loyalty as the most significant business outcomes of a healthy workforce. Additionally, a Gallup Report finds that on average, companies with
high employee engagement are 23 percent more profitable.

 

“As a consultative growth partner, Cigna knows that a healthy workforce is critical to business growth,” said Cindy Ryan, executive vice president and chief human resources officer. “We are honored to recognize organizations like Brighton Hospice who share our commitment to workplace wellness. Creating a healthy work culture is of critical importance, and many employers are seeing increased employee engagement, productivity, and retention as a result of whole-person health wellness initiatives.”

 

The Cigna Healthy Workforce Designation, formerly known as the Cigna Well-Being Award, evaluates organizations based on the core components of their well-being program, including leadership and culture, program foundations, program execution, and whole person health. Organizations recognized with this designation set the standard of excellence for whole-organization health. Cigna is proud to
honor Brighton Hospice with the Bronze level designation for having made good progress towards a healthy work culture by establishing and growing their employee well-being and engagement program.
