User: why is achieving overall health and wellness important

Weegy: Health-wellness has become important to schools, companies, the government, and citizens because of the drain that a sick population puts on our country as a whole. [ [ Treating diseases and providing nursing care to those who cannot care for themselves and cannot themselves afford to pay for nursing care is expensive The deteriorating health of our nation's people have driven up the costs of health care and health insurance rates so much that many people can no longer afford medical insurance for themselves and their families. Schools in which many students are often sick and out of school, lose the funding needed for after-school sports and other educational programs. Our workforce suffers with high-absenteeism and loss of productivity as the health of workers deteriorates. We will become less able to compete on a global-scale if we don?t all become more involved in the state of our health, and finding the funding needed to help those who cannot afford such preventative health measures such as yearly medical exams. ]
