Vitae’s updated model of services work together in a Prevent – Respond – Strengthen framework. This builds workforce wellbeing, sustained day-to-day functioning and effective performance.
We respond quickly and adapt to your needs, helping you prevent issues, navigate complexity and strengthen your business while reducing psychosocial risk and assisting kaimahi to thrive. Vitae’s integrated workplace wellbeing services combine prevention and capability-building with flexible, responsive support for kaimahi with a range of service types and offered with choice.
Prevent
Prevent builds readiness and improves day-to-day risk controls, using onsite presence for proactive touchpoints, manager guidance, staff training, practical resources and organisational settings that reduce psychosocial risk.
These approaches support wellbeing and facilitate early intervention to address issues before they escalate. We provide a range of awareness and promotional resources, topic or special- interest wellbeing education and self help wellbeing resources, tip sheets and videos.
Respond
Respond provides timely, matched support for individuals, managers and teams when help is needed, including EAP counselling and specialist services as required, and critical incident responses when necessary.
In so doing, we provide cultural capacity and accessibility to various languages, provision of Rongoā Māori and access to Māori and Pasifika practitioners as well as others with extended expertise and personal attributes which helps us meet your needs.
Strengthen
Strengthen closes the loop by learning from service use and significant events, then embedding specific improvements such as training refreshers and system fixes so capability and safe practice build over time.
Reporting and insights are numerous to support services oversight, trends and discussion on internal themes as well as comparative information.
