TELUS Health | TELUS Santé

On the heels of World Mental Health Day earlier this month, we are shining a spotlight on workplace mental health in the latest edition of our newsletter. This month, we take a deeper look at the impact of mental health and wellbeing in the workplace including:  - Understanding signs of mental illness at work and what employers can do to better support the wellbeing of their employees. - How our very own Dr. Matthew Chow, Chief Mental Health Officer, helps TELUS Health focus on mental health and wellbeing so that people around the world can live their healthiest lives.

Today, and every day, our #TeamTELUSHealth provides mental health services to individuals and their families around the globe. Thank you to every member of our team, including +100,000 clinicians worldwide, for their profound impact. 💜

Did you know that the last week of September is “International Week of Happiness at Work”? In this month’s edition of our LinkedIn newsletter, we take a deeper look into this theme and explore why workplace happiness is essential, including: - The importance of employee engagement and retention, and their impact on workplace happiness  - How our colleague Paul Alyward ensures Canadians are getting personalized and preventive care to help them lead healthier and happier lives at work

In this month's edition of our ‘The latest in employee health’ LinkedIn newsletter, we explore the important topic of employee mental health.   Discover how an Employee Assistance Program changed the life of one of our own TELUS Health employees and learn why adopting a holistic approach to mental health and wellbeing is more important than ever.

Our TELUS Health | TELUS Santé Mobile Health Clinic in Toronto brings medical care to marginalised citizens on the streets. Proactive care can prevent bigger issues, reduce ER visits, and reach those who might not seek help otherwise, so we worked with the team at Parkdale Queen West Community Health Centre to provide foot exams and a free pair of Vessi shoes for people in need. Our network of 12 innovative TELUS #HealthForGood mobile clinics have provided primary health care in 25 communities across Canada since inception.

The TELUS Days of Giving Volunteer month may be over, but we make it our mission to #GiveWhereWeLive and get involved in our communities all year long. I am pleased to share that some of my Telus team colleagues and I got to be part of Breaking the Silence for mental health and wellness 5Km walk/run , adding to the 2.2 million days volunteered since inception. It was an incredible event, bringing awareness to something that is so important to creating a healthier future for all. I am proud to be part of a company TELUS Health | TELUS Santé that shares this vision. Thank you to all who were able to join. Colleen Do, CPA Cheryl Lewis Neil Gordon

One of my favourite things about working at TELUS are all the opportunities to #GiveWhereWeLive, with volunteerism as one of our core values 💜 Last week, I had the chance to volunteer with Parkdale Queen West Community Health Centre to give out shoes to our neighbours in need. Foot health is something many of us take for granted. With help from the TELUS Health | TELUS Santé Mobile Health Clinic, over 200 community members received free exams and waterproof Vessi shoes 👟 Such a great way to bond with folks across TELUS including Abby Tan, Nandhini Pandian, CSCP and Bailey Wong 😊 Also got to meet my teammate Carly Johnston IRL, who did an incredible job organizing the day 💪 #TeamTELUS #LifeAtTELUS

Sophie had a fantastic time last weekend at the TELUS Days of Giving “TDOG for DOGS” event, supporting the Burnaby SPCA. It was a pleasure meeting more of the TELUS Health | TELUS Santé MyPet team over puppuccinos. #GiveWhereWeLive #TeamTELUS
