Thanks to funds provided by BlueCross BlueShield of Florida, St. Lucie Schools’ Employer Group Health Insurance provider, St. Lucie County School District now has an Employee Wellness Program Manager, Carlye Fabrikant. Carlye has worked in the areas of health and wellness for over 12 years with experience educating all ages on various health topics, creating wellness programs for various populations, and counseling individuals on proper nutrition, exercise, stress management, and disease prevention/management. Her objectives for the district’s employees are to create programs to meet the needs and interests of the employees, and to be a resource for the employees on the health services and education that are available to them in the community and bring many of those services to our schools. These objectives will assist in reaching our goal of healthier employees and reduced insurance costs.
