Sarah created ExecRN after noticing a lack of resources for employers to achieve their corporate health and wellness goals. ExecRN's role is to provide guidance and support on employee wellness programming, disability management services, and collaborate with both internal and external stakeholders to enhance the health and wellbeing of an organization's most important assets - it's people. Whether you need an entire corporate program developed or simply require consultation on with a complex employee file, ExecRN can assist.
