How does the MHealthy Wellness Assessment differ from the fitness assessments offered in 2007?
The fitness assessments only provided information on your fitness level. The MHealthy Wellness Assessments will be an annual program that not only looks at your fitness or exercise habits, but focuses on all aspects of your health (mental, physical, nutrition, safety, family history, etc.). The MHealthy Wellness Assessment gives you information about your current health status that you can act on to prevent health problems before they occur. If you participate in future years, you will be able to compare your current results to your results from previous years to help you see the progress you are making on your health improvement goals.
