Areas of Expertise

Health & Wellness
When creating health and wellness content for an established electrical cooperative, the challenge faced was three-fold. First, the program content needed to be pertinent and accessible to everyone from field to corporate employees, as well as all benefits-enrolled spouses. Second, it needed to span multiple locations across the state of Texas. Most importantly, it needed to be fun and engaging – something that employees would actually participate in, use, and benefit from.

The Solution
Cardigan worked with the client to determine which health and wellness topics were of interest to their employee base. In order to reach all employees both non-desk and corporate as well as their spouses, a year-long series of interactive presentations and demos was developed featuring experts including registered nurses, certified personal trainers, registered and licensed dietitians, and certified health coaches. These client-branded presentations were delivered each month at shift change and safety meetings at all locations. To accompany these, informational PDFs and videos were produced, given client branding, and placed on the company intranet, so that employees and spouses could also access them from home.
Fitness
From cardio to strength training – it’s important to get active. Downloadable videos and handouts with circuits designed by certified personal trainers stressed the importance of including various types of exercises in your exercise regimen. No gym necessary.

Food
Healthier eating doesn’t have to be hard. Interactive activities and a downloadable library of recipes (including some Texas favorites) helped break down the roles carbohydrates, protein and fats play in our diets, and how much you need of each.

Life
From stress management to self-defense, to knowing your numbers and warning signs of disease, employees were given prevention tips and coping tools to navigate life with a healthy mindset.
