As Health and Safety Professionals BCOHS members are acutely aware of the increasing recognition of the significant and wide-ranging mental health impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. While it is normal to feel stressed and worried during uncertain times like this, it is easy to become overwhelmed so it is more important than ever to actively take care of your own mental health, reach out to support others and take advantage of excellent sources of help, such as BEACON digital therapy (iCBT) and AbilitiCBT, which have been made available for free by the Government of Ontario. CAMH also has a hub for information and resources on Mental Health and the COVID-19 Pandemic. Don’t hesitate to reach out and recommend resources to others to make sure we all get through this challenging time not only surviving but thriving.
