Is COVID testing still necessary?

A recent study published in the New England Journal of Medicine reveals that based on surveillance testing of nursing home staff, facilities that tested more regularly experienced remarkable reductions in resident COVID-19 infections and deaths. While many of us would prefer to forget the pandemic ever happened, we need to remember COVID-19 still poses a significant risk to the elderly and immunocompromised individuals.

These studies provide valuable information about the protocols that can prevent fatalities in the face of current and future threats. If your business cares for the elderly or immunocompromised individuals, you should still consider screening your staff regularly for COVID-19 to help prevent unnecessary deaths. HealthImpact can assist with regular testing and screening through our mobile occupational health clinics that will travel to wherever your employees are across South Africa.

What’s the best age to quit smoking to prevent premature death?

Quitting smoking has been proven to improve quality of life and reduce the risk of premature death, and a landmark study from the US suggests that 35 is the optimal age to quit. Smokers who quit before this age had mortality rates close to those of non-smokers! Those who chose to quit between 35 and 44 years had a 21% higher rate of death from any cause than people who never smoked, and those quitting between 45 and 54 years showed a 47% higher mortality rate.

Smoking places your executives at risk of a deadly heart attack, stroke, and numerous chronic diseases. These include cancer, heart disease, diabetes, lung disease and emphysema. Can your business survive the untimely death of your CEO? HealthImpact offers executive health and wellness programs that can test your executives for underlying chronic illnesses associated with smoking while encouraging lifestyle changes to improve their overall health.

Businesses can’t afford to ignore depression any longer!

Recent research found that 3 out of 4 people who take medication for depression do not get relief from their symptoms. Sadly many individuals are not offered lower-risk therapies when medications do not work and are unfairly labelled with “treatment-resistant depression”. Mental health concerns have skyrocketed since the pandemic, and it is estimated that more than 1 in 4 South Africans are battling depression.

Many of your executives are suffering in silence with debilitating depression, which will drastically affect their productivity and increase absenteeism. Can you afford to ignore mental health concerns within your executive team? Bring your executives to one of ExecCare’s modern health and wellness facilities for a comprehensive evaluation.

Will you be sued for endangering the public?

Residents of Kuils River, Cape Town, are living in fear as the steel mill close to their homes has started operations again after new owners bought it last month. The steel mill had previously been operating under different owners when an independent study commissioned by some of the residents found that the mill was exposing the community to heavy metals. As a result, residents are concerned it could pose a significant health hazard to their families and the community.

Exposure to heavy metals can cause damage to vital organs, including the brain, lungs, kidneys and liver. As a business owner, it is your responsibility to ensure your business does not pose a risk to the public’s health or the environment, and failure to do so could result in costly lawsuits. HealthImpact can assist with health and safety risk audits that will identify potential hazards before they cause harm to surrounding communities.

Will junk food lead your execs to an early grave?

The World Action on Salt, Sugar & Health analysed 2346 foods and beverages sold by the 5 largest global food producers. Their survey discovered that 4 out of 5 of these products were considered unhealthy and contained high volumes of sugar, salt and saturated fats.

With more than 50% of South Africans now classed as obese or overweight, diet management is crucial to avoid developing life-threatening chronic diseases. These include high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol and cancer. If you have executives that are overweight or obese, you need to take action now to mitigate the risk they pose to your organisation.

Are your executives blissfully unaware of this silent killer?

Experts caution that the prevalence of heart failure has drastically increased across Europe. According to Swedish researchers, an estimated 64 million people worldwide suffer from this life-threatening condition, yet sadly many go undiagnosed. The disease is usually a result of various cardiac disorders such as coronary heart disease, hypertension and irregular heartbeat. Common symptoms include shortness of breath, exhaustion, dizziness and swelling in the ankles or legs.

Untreated heart failure can cause irreparable damage to your heart valves and impede proper blood flow through the kidneys. This deterioration of health often leads to kidney failure, a life-threatening condition that requires urgent medical attention. You need to take action now to protect your executives from the risk of heart failure by bringing them to HealthImpact for a complete medical and wellness assessment.

Is sugar placing your executives at risk of a stroke?

According to a study by the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom, consuming foods high in "free sugars" can significantly elevate one's risk of cardiovascular diseases leading to a heart attack or stroke. Free sugars are defined as any form of sugar added to food during manufacturing, cooking or when consumed, including honey, syrups and unsweetened fruit juice. Researchers concluded that subjects who regularly ingested 95 grams (or 18% of their daily caloric intake) per day experienced the highest risks of developing heart disease.

HIV/AIDS discrimination still rampant in Africa!

According to the 24th International AIDS Conference in Montreal, individuals living with HIV/AIDS in Africa are battling prejudice and bias while trying to access medical care. Beyond health clinics, many people who test positive for HIV face discrimination at their workplace as well. Even though there has been widespread awareness and significant advances in medicine, employees infected by HIV/AIDS still experience unfairness due to their diagnosis.

Because of the stigma employees face, they may be afraid to access healthcare or disclose their status to their employer. Leaving HIV untreated within your workforce will lead to high absenteeism rates, low productivity and ultimately have a devastating effect on your bottom line. HealthImpact offers confidential testing, medication, and support to help HIV-positive employees in your organisation feel their best.

Dementia cases to skyrocket in next 40 years!

In 2014, roughly five million adults had dementia, and that number is expected to skyrocket to 14 million by 2060 in the US alone. On a global scale, the World Health Organisation estimates there were 55 million individuals living with dementia in 2022, and most cases are likely to be caused by Alzheimer’s disease. A US study found that people who reported poorer sleep quality with more frequent sleeping disturbances and daytime drowsiness had greater biological indicators of Alzheimer's disease in their spinal fluid, placing them at a higher risk of dementia.

Furthermore, they observed that a bad diet, physical inactivity and smoking can drastically increase the odds of Alzheimer's and Dementia. Alzheimer's is a devastating illness that inflicts irreversible damage to the nerve and brain cells, resulting in falls, pneumonia, stroke, infections and even malnutrition, all of which can be fatal. HealthImpact offers comprehensive executive wellness at our modern health and wellness facilities that will give your executive all the support they need to protect their health.
