UPlan Wellness Coaching

The Wellness Coach can help motivate and encourage eligible UPlan members to better health. Your Wellness Coach provides unbiased up-to-date health information to assist you with the development of a personalized wellness plan to effectively change behavior.

The Wellness Coach will assess your interests and needs, share the program options and resources available, and help you set realistic goals. The primary focus is to coach and guide you through healthy living choices.

The Wellness Coach can:

• Guide you through your wellness program choices
• Assist you with goal setting, encouragement, and ongoing education and resources
• Assist you in developing an action plan to overcome lifestyle barriers

Location
