Infinit Care Powers Workplace Mental Health with Technology

In an effort to ensure companies are able to support each and every employee’s mental wellbeing, Infinit Care harnesses the power of technology to create a mental health platform that meets the needs of each person – however and whenever they need it.

Last June 24, Infinit Care gathered the members of the media to talk about workplace mental health and how the mental health support provider is pioneering a tech-based solution that allows companies to support the mental wellbeing of employees.

Workplace Mental Health

Mental health issues are on the rise, especially among the working population and it’s severely affecting overall health and productivity. The World Health Organization found that mental illness is prevalent in the Philippines. In fact, it is the third most common disability in the country.[1] The National Center for Mental Health also recorded a 500% increase in monthly hotline calls due to depression during the pandemic.[2]

Companies have tried to answer this plight by providing mental health support whether in-house or through a 3rd party provider. However, a lot of the options in the market focus on delivering solutions that cater to those who are already in crisis and leave out a significant part of the population. Studies also show that despite increases in stress and burnout, utilization for mental health benefits remain low due to the lack of access to proper mental health solutions and the persistent stigma around talking about mental health struggles.

 

A Pioneer in Mental Health Tech

Infinit Care partners with businesses and organizations to provide their employees and community with comprehensive mental health support. “Our platform of care solutions are founded on The Mental Health Continuum which takes into account a wide range of mental health states so that every employee can receive customized support, no matter what they’re going through, wherever and however they need it,” explained Infinit Care Marketing Head, Paola Silva.

“Everyone needs different kinds of care at different times. We work with companies who care deeply about the mental wellbeing of their employees and understand that mental health is just as important as physical health. We help companies bring the best out of their people by providing personalized mental health support.” said Infinit Care’s Head of Clinical Care, Shyne Mangulabnan.

Infinit Care is the only provider in the Philippines that can provide multi-channel mental health support. Available via web and mobile app (iOS and Android), Infinit Care can meet the varying needs of all employees. Our suite of solutions include 24/7 chat support with real live Care Chat Coaches who commit to an average response time of 5 minutes, a team of qualified licensed counselors and coaches available for virtual counseling or coaching at your convenience, a library of mental health tools and content to meet the varying needs of your workforce, and mental health training and capacity building workshops for the leaders and entire organization.
