November/2012

Happy November to all of Harvard's HR Professionals and Managers.

 

With the arrival of November our thoughts turn to the approaching holidays. At the Wellness Corporation we look forward to the holiday season because it allows us to spend time with loved ones and reconnect, but the hectic pace can also bring a lot of stress. With that in mind, this month's Harvard's EAP Newsletter has several resources that focus on keeping your mind and body healthy. The Fitting in Fitness Tip Sheet provides advice on how to fit in exercise even when your schedule is tight, and the Balanced Living Newsletter has an feature on keeping your spirit healthy and your life balanced despite stressors.

 

If you have loved ones who are aging, you will not want to miss the information on eldercare from this month's newsletter. November's Work Life Webinar Elder Care: The Beginning gives tips on how to keep homes safe for the aging and the The Did You Know... Flyer highlights the eldercare resources available through Harvard's EAP. 

 

Also, in the wake of the devastation of Hurricane Sandy, we would like you to know that Harvard's EAP is available to provide resources and support to help you deal with the effects of the storm. Please don't hesitate to call us at 877.327.4278 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
