<p>To thrive is to achieve total health—in mind, body, and spirit. At Kaiser Permanente, our mission is to help you do just that.</p>
<p>Some people need information on exercise and fitness. Others want tips on healthy cooking and eating. Whatever it is you seek, we’re here to help you discover the various ways to live a healthy life.</p>
<p>“We want consumers to understand who we are and what we stand for,” says Debbie Cantu, vice president, Brand Marketing and Advertising. “We strive to reflect the world we live in today. ‘Thrive’ is the embodiment of how we care for our members. When we say ‘may you live long and thrive,’ we really mean it.”</p>
<p>At Kaiser Permanente, we encourage everyone to invest in their overall wellness so they can thrive. We’ve even created a new television commercial to inspire people to invest in their most important asset—themselves.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsYfznhptDk" target="_blank">View our “Invest” commercial</a> to see how you can take stock in your wellness.</p>

Research<sup>1</sup> shows that the health of high-risk patients is improved when doctors can review electronic health records and get a head start on providing treatment options.</p>
<p>Electronic records<sup>2</sup> can save lives when seconds count, and what we’ve learned from them has led to important medical discoveries.</p>
<p>Kaiser Permanente has long recognized the value of electronic records, and our new television commercial highlights some of the key benefits.</p>

<p>By supporting parks, farmers' markets, and public spaces for physical activity, we can all help create and sustain the vitality of our neighborhoods. Watch an innovative practice with a “clean” message.</p>

It also helps your doctor stay connected to your health care team.</p>
<p>In a flash, your doctor can share information or consult with other doctors, nurses, lab technicians, and pharmacists—all working for the good of your health.</p>
<p>We’ve also connected parts of your electronic health record to secure online tools that make it easy for you to e-mail your doctor, view most lab results, request prescription refills, and make or cancel routine appointments electronically.</p>
<p>Our new television commercial shows how these kinds of connections benefit our members, helping them lead healthier—and happier—lives.</p>
