Nustep Award
Unlike other awards that focus on facility design, technology, equipment or class offerings, the NuStep Pinnacle Award salutes organizations that use creativity and commitment to transform the lives of the people and promote optimal health, regardless of age.

Inside NuStep: NuStep Pinnacle Award

NuStep, Inc. established the Pinnacle Award ten years ago to recognize excellence in older adult wellness programs. Pinnacle Award winners use creativity to provide programs, environments and services that address the six dimensions of wellness which are:

  • Physical
  • Social
  • Emotional
  • Spiritual
  • Intellectual
  • Vocational

To nominate your center for a Pinnacle Award, follow the entry guidelines on the form. There are eight sections to complete for a total of 500 possible points. You don't have to own a NuStep to participate.

Note: This year, the Pinnacle Award is redefining the criteria for hospital-based wellness centers to encourage best practices. The award will focus on older adult wellness programs that support the whole person wellness model. Innovative, progressive, involved, motivational—these are the qualities we seek in Pinnacle Award winners.

The deadlines for entries is June 27, 2008.

A panel of industry experts will select the finalists. Judges will go on site to determine the winners. Winners will receive a NuStep Recumbent Cross Trainer for their centers and the prestigious Pinnacle Award trophy. NuStep will announce the winners at the AAHSA Conference, October 2008, and photos and information on their wellness programs will be posted on the NuStep website and announced in the NuStep Touchline. Press releases will be sent to industry publications and to community newspapers. Good luck!

To nominate your wellness program for a Pinnacle Award, read the Rules for Entry. Then describe your older adult wellness program by using the outline on the page.

Each winner will receive:

  • NuStep recumbent cross trainer
  • NuStep Pinnacle award trophy presented on-site by a nustep Vice President
  • Flight and 2 night hotel stay at the 2008 AAHSA conference October 13-15 in Philadelphia, Pa
  • Recognition at the AAHSA conference
  • Exposure in industry publications
