It’s the human touch that matters

Welcome to the Life Care Consultants newsletter for August.

Winter can have a negative impact on our mental and physical wellbeing. In this issue, we’ll be looking at the importance of Mental Health, as well as a focus on the implications of sitting for long periods.

For us, employee wellness isn’t about compliance and box ticking. It’s about empowering people through education and empathy, to live their best lives. We are here to make a difference, to you, your business and your people.

Good mental health is a state of mind

If we hadn’t noticed it before, the pandemic has certainly raised questions (and anxiety).

Living through 2020 with this pandemic on our doorsteps and witnessing the massive levels of disruption that happened in its wake, has made the pressing issue of mental health even more alarming. For many people lockdowns and remote working blurred the lines around work-life balance, and boundaries as to when and where work starts and ends, have been upended by the pandemic.

Recognise if someone needs support

We’ve recently launched our Mental Health Toolbox to help those in need and give a better understanding on how to support someone navigating issues surrounding mental health.

Click the video link below for a quick tour on the subjects covered in our Toolbox Talk and see how this can empower, educate and support your team.

 

For more information on how this could help your business, please contact the Life Care team.

 

Unsit your back!

According to the world-renowned Mayo Clinic, research has linked sitting for long periods of time with several health concerns, and it’s not surprising that we found some truth in this when analysing our health results data.

While we have customers from a diverse set of industries and environments engaging with us for health assessments, we wanted to highlight administrative and office staff, especially that we’re focusing on the effects of sitting on the human body and these roles in business require more sitting than standing or moving.
