Florida CPA and consulting firm Markham Norton Mosteller Wright & Company recently kicked off a new employee Path to Wellness program with a 90-day health challenge that began Jan. 21.

The challenge, in partnership with Lee Memorial Health System, includes:

•    Scientific benchmarking and biometrics conducted by LMHS physicians

“We want our employees to feel well inside and out,” said Gail Markham, firm founder and  valuation, litigation and meditation services partner, in a statement. “The program will not only educate our team about eating healthy and exercising, but will also assist in making choices that influence our moods, social lives and finances.”
