Health Assured and the Wisdom App

Apr 24, 2024 | Apprentices, Blog, Ginger Nut News, Safeguarding

As part of our commitment to safeguarding the mental health and wellness of our apprentices, we provide full, free access to Health Assured from day one of our apprenticeship programmes.

Wisdom App now available through Ginger Nut Training

Members of the Health Assured community now have exclusive access to the new and revitalised Wisdom app, which has been carefully designed to make it much more simple to track your wellness, improve your mental health, and build up resilience during challenging times.

Let’s have an in depth look at the app’s features – all offering a range of tools for a healthier life.

Welcome to the Health Hub

The app serves as a one-stop shop for all things wellness. Below are the key features that support users in achieving their health goals:

Interactive Mood Tracker

Understanding one’s emotions is crucial for maintaining good mental health. The app’s mood tracker sends regular prompts for you to quickly assess your feelings, allowing you to follow your mood over time. This can reveal trends that might have otherwise gone unnoticed. By recognising patterns, you can identify triggers, areas for improvement, and take proactive steps to enhance your wellbeing.

Four-Week Health Plans

The app offers customisable four-week health plans to guide users on their own personal health journey. Whether you’re aiming to eat healthier, quit smoking, sleep better, or better manage stress, there’s a plan for you. As you progress, you can track daily achievements, keeping you motivated and on track.

Mini Health Checks

In the midst of daily life, it’s easy to lose sight of your physical and mental health. The mini health checks help users take a moment to assess their well-being with simple questions that provide a snapshot of their current state. This quick check-in guides them to the right resources or practices to improve their health.

Breathing Techniques

Stress can accumulate quickly, and sometimes all we need is to stop for a a moment and breathe. The app includes guided breathing exercises that promote relaxation and a sense of calm. Users can turn to these exercises whenever they need to reset their focus or unwind after a long day.

Wellbeing Connected

The app is designed to be flexible and adaptable to each user’s needs. Here’s how it connects users to the right resources and support:

Personalisation

Everyone’s wellness journey is unique, so the app allows for lots of customisation on your own personal homepage. Arrange your favourite features, resources, and learning materials to create your unique dashboard, with quick access to the tools that matter most to you.

Live Chat

Sometimes, direct support from a professional is necessary. The Live Chat feature lets users contact a dedicated wellbeing counsellor through live messaging or video calls. It’s a convenient way to get guidance, ask questions, or discuss any challenges you may face. For additional assistance, the app provides a 24/7 helpline that is always available. Whether it’s the middle of the night or a busy weekend, help is just a phone call away.

With all these features, you have a comprehensive toolkit at your fingertips to support your first steps towards a healthier, more resilient you. The Wisdom app is more than just an app—it’s a supportive community dedicated to helping you thrive. There’s never a bad time to take that first step toward a better, healthier life.
