Introduction “Well Being” meals are nutritionally balanced menu selections from the UPHS- Portage Cafe, consisting of one entree and 1-2 side dishes. They offer a clearly identified and health-conscious dining choice. Well Being meals are offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays of each week. Well Being meals are analyzed by our Registered Dietitians here at UPHS- Portage, and are required to meet certain nutritional criteria to be “approved” as a featured Well Being meal.
4
Introduction This program is being trailed as a special benefit to all of our employees here. UPHS Employees can earn incentives for making the healthy choice and purchasing Well Being (WB) Meals. Use a WB Meal Card and earn a punch each time you purchase the WB option. After 10 punches, you receive a free WB meal! This program wouldn’t be possible without our awesome Food Services staff, who work very hard to provide a variety of great choices every day!
