Social wellbeing
Social wellness is achieved when we can create and maintain healthy relationships with the people around us, building supportive and meaningful networks. At its heart, social wellness fosters a profound sense of connectedness and belonging, particularly within the workplace, where individuals feel valued, supported, and engaged.
Metro North social identities
Social identities and wellbeing portfolios have been established in each directorate to guide and shape Metro North’s initiatives across our health services. These well-connected teams play a crucial role in embedding our values into daily conversations and provide strategic leadership for the development, implementation, and sustainability of health and wellbeing programs at each facility. These social identities inspire Metro North staff to proudly represent the facilities in which they work!
Connection is key
Connecting with the people around you—whether family, friends, neighbours, or colleagues — is essential for overall wellbeing. Recognise the importance of these social connections in your life and dedicate time to nurturing them. Building and maintaining these relationships will provide daily support and strength, enhancing your overall quality of life.
