Well-Being
Well-Being is a personal and lifelong journey and having motivation and support from others can make all the difference. As you work to support our mission to improve the health and well-being of eastern North Carolina, we want you to know that supporting your well-being is central to our mission.
The first step on your path is to connect with your Well-Being Nurse Navigator who will help guide and support you in getting started. Initial steps may include completing your annual Health Risk Assessment and/or scheduling a Well-Being Consultation — both designed to help identify the resources and services that best support your unique needs.
