Help our Nurses & Healthcare Staff Stay Healthy
Ireland now has the highest number of COVID-19 case rates globally among healthcare staff. (RTE News 23.6.20)
We want to help our healthcare staff stay fit & healthy, both during and after this pandemic.
Our aim is to provide our Nurses, and all other Healthcare staff who have some of the most physically and psychologically demanding roles in our community with much needed additional Employee Health & Wellbeing perks & benefits, to help motivate them to stay fit & healthy.
These are the types of health benefits which are generally only ever provided by corporate wellness companies to employees in the private sector, which each year spends over €200m helping their Employees’ stay fit & healthy.
We're an Enterprise Ireland backed health start-up which has developed health software & apps for large corporate employers so they can help their employees improve their health, normally this software/service would be paid for by the employer, however we now want provide it at no cost to our healthcare staff and give them free access so they too can avail of the health benefits it provides.
To achieve this we have launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise the additional funds we'd need in addition to our own resources to provide these valuable health benefits to staff nationwide. We have estimated the cost to provide, implement & support such a large-scale health initiative to be in the region of €100,000, for around 100,000 healthcare workers.
Although, it has been great to showing our thanks and support for our nurses & healthcare staff with rounds of applause, and free lunches, we still cannot give our nurses what they really want..... a pay rise, and more money in their pockets, and although we can’t give them a pay rise either, we can give each of them €1,000 worth of perks, discounts & savings for looking after their own health & wellbeing.
Our health perks & benefits will be provided 24/7 via an app for the healthcare staff to access, where staff who use popular everyday consumer health apps on their phones, or health wearable such as Fitbits etc, will earn points for using those apps and improving their own health, these points can then be redeemed at local businesses, national retailers & online brands for perks, rewards and discounts.
Other features in the health app includes, health challenges where staff, wards, departments & hospitals can all be part of team-based challenges against each other, for a bit of friendly fun & competition all year round, workout videos and nutrition tips & advice, and mindfulness sessions. workout videos and nutrition tips & advice, and mindfulness sessions.
We want to, in a radical move for a start-up shift our focus to do our bit for our healthcare community, but to do that we need to raise €100,000 just to cover the costs of delivering these services to 100,000 staff, this will enable us to create new jobs to help provide these services long-term.
Target Achieved:
When we achieve our €100,000 target, all additional funds will be used to help tailor the existing health app more towards the specific needs of the nursing & healthcare staff, plus integrate more health apps giving the staff more choice of healthy activities.
