At PCBi, we understand that mental health is just as important as physical health. That's why we offer the Mental Health Navigator, a service designed to guide employees and their families through their mental health journey with expert support.

According to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), by age 40, 1 in 2 Canadians will have experienced a mental illness. Additionally, mental health issues are a significant concern in the workplace. Studies by the World Health Organization show that poor mental health costs the global economy $1 trillion in lost productivity annually.

What is the Mental Health Navigator?

The Mental Health Navigator is a confidential, easy-to-access service that helps employees and their families get the right care for mental health concerns. Whether you need a second opinion, clarity on your diagnosis, or help connecting with a specialist, the Navigator is here to make the process simpler and more personalized.

How It Works

Navigating mental health care can be overwhelming, but the Mental Health Navigator breaks it down into three simple steps:

  1. Diagnosis & Treatment Plan Review: Your current diagnosis and treatment plan are reviewed by a mental health expert to ensure you’re on the right path.
  2. Personalized Action Plan: After the review, you’ll receive a customized action plan. This may confirm your current treatment or suggest changes to ensure you receive the best possible care.
  3. Ongoing Support for Families: The service is also available to family members, helping them navigate mental health concerns as well.

Benefits of Using the Mental Health Navigator

  • Access to Specialists: Get connected with the right mental health professionals, whether you need therapy, counseling, or medication management.
  • Confidential & Convenient: Access the service through the Teladoc app, online, or over the phone, making it easy and private.
  • Family Support: The service extends to your family, so everyone can get the support they need.

Why Mental Health Support Matters

Mental health has a big impact on both personal well-being and work performance. In fact, 70% of employees say their mental health affects their ability to perform at work. Offering easy access to mental health services, like the Mental Health Navigator, is an important step in creating a healthier and more resilient workforce.
