  3. Promoting the Health of Rural Blue Collar Women in the Workplace • Health Works for Women-1 (1993-1998) 9 manufacturing plants; healthy eating, physical activity, cancer screening, and smoking; 2 levels of socio-ecologic model

  4. Promoting the Health of Rural Blue Collar Women in the Workplace and the Community • Health Works for Women 2/Health Works in the Community (1998-2003) Builds on HWW-1; 12 manufacturing plants; stress, healthy eating, physical activity and smoking; new populations and worksites; 4 levels of socio-ecologic model

  5. Overall Goal: to reduce morbidity and mortality among low income working women in Eastern N.C. • Heart disease • Obesity • Cancer • Hypertension • Diabetes

  6. Improve health behaviors that contribute to leading causes of morbidity and mortality • Decrease smoking • Increase fruit and vegetable intake • Decrease dietary fat • Reduce stress levels • Increase physical activity

  7. Participant Characteristics (1166 women) • 68% overweight or obese • 6% eat 5 a day; 33% eat low fat • 25% exercise 3x week (with ADL & work) • 26% currently smoke; 38% live with smoker • 78% felt nervous/stressed most or some of the time in last month

  8. MATCH • Phase I: Goal Selection • Phase II:Intervention Planning • Phase III: Program Development • Phase IV: Implementation • Phase V: Evaluation

  9. Intervention Planning: select theory-based approaches • Individual ~ tailored health messages • Interpersonal ~ lay health advisor programs • Organizational ~ employee wellness committee projects • Community-societal ~ Community Advisory Committee projects

  10. Intervention Planning: Choose Objectives and Target 1. Provide health information and practical strategies to help individual female employees change unhealthy behaviors (nutrition, smoking, physical activity, weight management, and stress).

  11. Intervention Planning: Choose Objectives and Target 2. Provide information and practical strategies to groups of female employees for supporting co-workers in efforts to improve health behaviors.

  12. Intervention Planning: Choose Objectives and Target 3. Provide consulting and practical assistance to employee wellness committees to increase organizational (workplace) support for practicing healthy behaviors.

  13. Intervention Planning: Choose Objectives and Target 4. Provide assistance and support to a community advisory group for addressing community–wide health and wellness issues.

  14. Intervention planning: identify mediators of behavior change for blue collar women • Information and knowledge about health behaviors • Practical strategies and skills practice • Barriers and motivators (all levels) • Stage of readiness to change • Culture (attitudes)

  15. MATCH • Phase I: Goal Selection • Phase II: Intervention Planning • Phase III: Program Development • Phase IV: Implementation • Phase V: Evaluation

  16. Formative Research for Intervention Planning & Program Development Focus groups (13) with women from each shift were used to determine: • Health priorities of women • How women support each other • Barriers to change • Facilitators for change • Program implementation strategies (time, location) • Women’s words for training manuals and tailored messages

  17. Baseline Health Surveys for Intervention Planning and Program Development • Demographic information (age, weight, height, ethnicity/race, children, etc.) • Health behaviors: exercise, diet, stress, smoking • Stage of readiness to change • Barriers • Behavioral priority

  18. Program Development: Create program components • Tailored women’s magazines --2 magazines, 6 months apart --multiple health behaviors: diet, physical activity, smoking, cancer screening --feedback based on behavioral priority --recipes, advice columns, personalized to individual and workplace

  19. Program Development:Create program components Lay health advisor programs • highly interactive training sessions for each health behavior as well as social support and program maintenance • training sessions fun, interactive, provide information and skills practice

  20. Program Development:Create program components Employee Wellness Committees: • Representative of all job categories and ethnic groups • Consultation and technical assistance from HWW/HWC • Choose a wellness or health issue based on survey data • Implement a project to address that issue with emphasis on organizational and environmental level changes

  21. Program Development:Create program components Community Advisory Committee: • Provides advice, consultation and direction to the Center and HWW: key to participatory research • Members are from workplaces, local health departments, Healthy Carolinians, migrant-community health center, domestic violence agencies, cooperative extension, mental health, dispute settlement center, and the state health dept. • Chooses, plans, organizes and implements community-wide health and wellness activities

  22. MATCH • Phase I: Goal Selection • Phase II: Intervention Planning • Phase III: Program Development • Phase IV: Implementation • Phase V: Evaluation

  23. Plans and timelines • Production and distribution of tailored messages • Recruit LHA’s, develop materials and training programs • Employee wellness committees: recruit members, develop session outlines and strategies • Community Advisory Committee: form committee, develop plans and strategies with the committee

  24. Implementation Preparations STEP 1: Develop implementation plan • Tailored messages: plans for distribution through workplace channels • Natural helpers: recruit natural helpers and provide trainings (at the workplace, usually not on work time)

  25. Implementation Preparations • Employee Wellness Committees: work with management contacts to recruit committee members representative of all sections/employees; set first meeting and agenda • Community Advisory Committee: recruit members based on formative work and previous contacts; set first meeting and agenda

  26. Implementation Preparations • STEP 2: • Select and train staff • Include process evaluation and feedback

  27. Employee Wellness Committee Accomplishments • Vending machine changes • Canteen food options (fruit, yogurt, salads) • VCR in break room • Wellness bulletin boards • Fundraising to build a walking trail • Walking groups • Work stretch breaks • Health fairs and health screenings

  28. Community Advisory Committee Projects Women’s Empowerment Days: • Planned and implemented by the Community Advisory Committee • Address health and economic needs of blue collar women • Community-wide events • New linkages among agencies

  29. Lessons Learned about intervention planning, program development and implementation~ Plan WITH the participants: • Formative research: ask, listen, and use the data (qualitative and quantitative). • Relationships are key, and take time. • Build on previous work and contacts. • Address unique barriers and motivators.

  30. Lessons Learned about intervention planning,program development and implementation~ • Use the Socio-Ecologic model. • Flexibility is important in planning. Be sure to allow for mid-course corrections. • Real-world problems WILL occur; e.g, manufacturing workplace constraints; economic and community changes.

  31. Lessons Learned about intervention planning, program development and implementation~ Health Works for Women/Health Works in the Community: • A rewarding experience for the researchers and the participants • Contributions to practice and research; development of next project

  32. HOPE Works (2004-2009) • Builds on HWW-1 and HWW-2/HWC • Community-based participatory research project, active participation of Community Advisory Committee • Addresses high prevalence of obesity… • …and addresses social determinants of health (education, employment, living situations) • Modeled on loan circles/microenterprise

  33. Planning for HOPE Works (2003-2004) • CAC women trained to lead focus groups (8 focus groups conducted) • CBPR Process/Committees formed: • Facilitator training • Marketing • Kickoff • Evaluation (baseline and community surveys)
