A brief description of the program, including examples of peer-to-peer outreach activities:
Buckeye Wellness Innovators champion university-wide wellness initiatives in their units or departments and advance the One University Health and Wellness strategic plan. Buckeye Wellness offers solutions for a healthy life based on the 9 dimensions of wellness: spiritual, physical, emotional, social, environmental, creative, career, financial, and intellectual.
Innovators are responsible for communicating health and wellness activities with their colleagues, encouraging and motivating faculty and staff participation, and planning and conducting wellness activities and working collaboratively with Ohio State’s Chief Wellness Officer, Bernadette Melnyk, and her wellness team, Your Plan for Health, and the OSU Health Plan to promote health and wellness in their units. One example of peer-to-peer outreach is the creation of the Ohio State University at Lima's Recipe Book. The online resource features staff and faculty's favorite healthy and budget-friendly recipes. https://lima.osu.edu/faculty-and-staff/wellness-innovators/recipe-book.html.
