Being an Informed Medical Consumer
This high-impact program enables participants to lower their health care costs and maintain better health. The foundation of the program is the Health At Home Selfcare Manual. The book is written in simple, non-technical language so that every member of the family can use it.
The book is divided into three sections:
You and Your Health - Includes tools and skills to prevent illness, select a doctor, make better healthcare decisions, schedule preventative exams from a health professional, and covers the safe use of medicines and your home pharmacy.
Common Health Problems - Lists more than 140 of the most common reasons people seek healthcare. Oftentimes people are not sure if they should treat a problem themselves or seek professional care. This section provides useful guidance by identifying the signs, symptoms and known causes of a problem; providing direction for treatment by either self-care, calling a doctor or seeking emergency care; and how to be actively involved in your own cure.
Emergencies - Recognizing the signs and symptoms of emergency situations, first aid precautions, and how to administer emergency first aid. Also provides direction on when to seek immediate professional care.
The orientation to train people to use the book lasts approximately 35 minutes and can accommodate large groups in each session.
It is readily apparent that this book will boost morale and help employees improve their health. But will it really save money? Research on this product demonstrates an ROI of $57-$66 in the first year for every employee trained to use this book.
The book retails for $16.95 each. Our prices range from $7.50-$9.95 plus shipping depending on quantities purchased.
