West Columbia, S.C. – Lexington Medical Center has created a music video as part of its “Be Well” campaign to encourage healthy living. The three-minute video features hundreds of employees line dancing to a popular country music song and sharing ways they practice wellness.
“We’re excited to share this new video, which encourages our friends, families and neighbors to take care of themselves and reminds them we’re here to care for them when they need us,” said Tod Augsburger, president and CEO of Lexington Medical Center. “We hope to inspire everyone to live a healthy life and be well.”
The music video is the latest addition to Lexington Medical Center’s Be Well campaign. The hospital recently partnered with several local municipalities and Dominion Energy to provide new water fountains across the community. In addition, the hospital placed hand-painted murals with the “Be Well” message at Irmo Community Park, Riverbanks Botanical Garden, Columbiana Centre mall and Segra Park. The rocket at the South Carolina State Fair and a flower bed on the hospital’s front lawn also carry the “Be Well” message.
