Salve Regina’s open enrollment period for health care benefits — including dental, vision, AFLAC supplemental insurance, flexible spending and health savings accounts — is being held Nov. 1-15. Salve Regina’s employees are also invited to join the Office of Human Resources for the in person Benefits and Wellness Fair, which runs on Wednesday, Nov. 2, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Ochre Court.

For important changes and full details on Salve Regina’s health care benefits, this document will give all the information. This is the time of year to enroll in coverage, change health care plans, add or delete family members, or drop coverage.

During the Benefits and Wellness Fair, Human Resources staff and benefit presenters will be available to review benefit coverage information, provide supporting documentation and answer questions.

Wellness events have also been scheduled for the fair and are designed to inspire employees to make healthy choices that lead to feeling healthier, more resilient and well rested. Registration is required in advance for the events.

Wellness Events

InBody Body Composition Screening
Times vary according to scheduling

Participants can review the weight of muscle mass, the distribution of muscle on body, body fat mass, body fat percentage and more. Body composition analysis is essential to understand one’s health and weight, as traditional methods of assessing health, such as BMI, can be misleading. Going beyond a bathroom scale, body composition analysis breaks down your body into four components: fat, lean body mass, minerals and body water.

InBody measures your body composition and displays it on an organized, easy-to-understand results sheet, which gives you a detailed analysis of where your fat and muscle are and where your body water levels are at. Ultimately, this is a guide to help anyone achieve their goals–whether that is shedding a few unwanted pounds or a complete body transformation. Engage Wellness Solutions will review how your measurements compare to recognized healthy norms for someone of your height and gender.

Chair Massage
Times vary according to scheduling

Research shows even just 10 minutes of massage can decrease one’s heart rate and blood pressure. Massages can also provide a number of other benefits, including better sleep, less stress and anxiety, reduced muscle tension, increased immunity, musculoskeletal pain relief and increased range of motion. During this massage, participants will sit in a special chair that supports their entire body. They can remain fully clothed as their massage therapist works on their shoulders, neck, arms, back and hands.

What To Do In A Medical Emergency
Noon in Ochre Court

Join the office of Safety and Security to learn about what to do in a medical emergency. Not only will participants learn about the EMS program, but this presentation may also include information on determining level of consciousness, how to check a pulse and check for breathing, bleeding, allergic reactions, airways and airway devices, and choking.
