    Abstract

    Outcomes of a work site disease management program managed by an advanced practice nurse were evaluated. Fifty-four participants were surveyed. A significant number of participants with dyslipidemia and diabetes reported that the program positively changed individual health behaviors. Those with dyslipidemia and hypertension reported improved understanding of their condition after being involved with the program, and participants with asthma indicated more control of their condition. Program satisfaction was high. Continued development and implementation of work site programs are indicated to improve health outcomes of employees.
