Gilsbar placed in both the Best Wellness Initiative and Best Health Promotion categories at the Consumer Health World 2008 National Conference on Health Care Consumerism held in Las Vegas, NV.

According to Doug Layman, Gilsbar's Executive Vice President, "Gilsbar is vital proof that in order to provide a successful wellness program, you have to create an environment that continually supports and promotes health and lifestyle management initiatives.

It's our privilege to help employers create health and lifestyle management initiatives in their individual organizations."
