Akron Children’s

AKRON

The Cleveland Plain Dealer has selected Akron Children’s Hospital as one of the Top Workplaces in Northeast Ohio in 2016. The Top Workplaces lists are based solely on the results of an employee feedback survey administered by WorkplaceDynamics LLC, a leading research firm specializing in organizational health and workplace improvement. Several aspects of workplace culture were measured, including alignment, execution and connection.

Of the 2,458 Akron Children’s employees who received the Workplace Dynamics 2016 survey, 1,866 (76 percent) completed the questionnaire.

Walt Schwoeble, vice president for human resources, said being recognized as a Top Workplace again this year is extremely gratifying. “Our leadership team continues to be awed by our employees’ desire to do all they can to ensure a bright future for the children and families we serve,” he said.

Adult asthma treatment

DENVER, COLO.

Results of a recently released survey found that lack of awareness prevents patients with adult-onset asthma from seeking treatment. The survey, commissioned by National Jewish Health, shows that while people are aware of some of the most-common asthma signs such as wheezing and shortness of breath, many don’t recognize other warning symptoms like trouble sleeping, chest pain and persistent cough.

Doctors say that the findings explain why many adults with asthma may not realize that they have the disease, and don’t seek treatment that can help them.

Aspartame in diet Pepsi

NEW YORK

PepsiCo is creating a new diet beverage for fans of aspartame less than a year after pulling the artificial sweetener as part of a marketing move over safety concerns.

The sweetener had been linked to cancer in lab mice and industry executives blamed the decline in sales on concerns people have about aspartame. The removal of the sweetener tested the theory that it was to blame for fleeing customers. But, the move seems to have been a misstep, with consumers dissatisfied over the change in flavor.

The company will start selling the new Diet Pepsi Classic Sweetener Blend this fall, which will contain aspartame in its formula.
