Jayco Unveils 10k-Square-Foot Healthcare, Fitness Facility
RV manufacturer Jayco has opened its nearly 10,000-square-foot healthcare facility for employees on its Middlebury, Indiana, campus.
The facility launched Jan. 4 in partnership with Goshen Health, providing primary and preventative healthcare for thousands of staff and their dependents across Jayco’s four brands: Entegra Coach, Jayco, Starcraft RV and Highland Ridge RV. Employees now have access to a fitness center, occupational health clinic and family care clinic services, including prescription drugs and wellness coaching.
The company celebrated with a ribbon cutting ceremony on Monday morning, including representatives from Jayco, DJ Construction and Goshen Health.
“We are honored to support Jayco’s commitment to the health and well-being of its workforce,” said Randy Christophel, Goshen Health president and CEO. “It is a privilege for us to provide Jayco employees and their families with convenient access to high quality primary and preventive healthcare.”
The facility offers an extra benefit for nearly 3,600 Jayco workers across Elkhart and LaGrange counties, said Trey Miller, Jayco’s vice president of corporate marketing. Officials say the clinics are an initiative unlike anything offered in the RV industry in Indiana.
The Fitness Center offers employees 24-hour access to a multitude of weight machines, free weights and cardiovascular equipment including elliptical machines, treadmills, seated and Peloton stationary exercise bicycles. Locker and changing rooms with private showers, instructional exercise aids, electronic scales and body composition machines, televisions and more are available.
“It is exciting to see this project come to completion and the Jayco Family Care Clinic open,” said Mark Dilworth, Jayco’s director of human resources. “The clinic will be a huge benefit to Jayco employees on the health plan offering primary and urgent medical care, extended hours and exceptional service. Goshen health has been a great partner with us and has assembled a great medical team to care for Jayco families.”
