How to Build a Wellness Program:
At Academy Hour, we provide all the basics and essentials to help you start and run your entire First Responder department wellness program. Build your own program based on your department needs and budget. Email us at [email protected] for department pricing.
How It Works
Choose the individual elements you want, or choose the "whole wellness program" for your department. Based on your department goals, size, and budget, we'll put together the perfect Wellness Program startup plan for you.
Elements of the Wellness Program are implemented gradually.
The schedule below is an example:
Month 1 Release: Online mental health training classes
Month 2 Release: Peer Support Leader training for interested team leaders & Certified First Responder Counselor directory
Month 3 Release: Peer Support Teammate training for interested teammates.
Month 4 Release: The Academy Hour app for your wellness team & the Lighthouse Health & Wellness app for all of your department personnel
Month 5 Release: Select in-house trainers to complete the Academy Hour Certified Instructor and train-the-trainer programs
Within a few months you'll have all the tools and programs available to you that you need to run a beneficial and effective wellness program.
