Today we're pleased to launch another feature which will continue to turn the spotlight onto the unsung heroes of the International Education Industry. The aim of this Feature Friday article will be to shed light on specific events that might be taking place in our industry, or on industry partners, or on particular programmes which inspire us in our daily work. Today we are starting with a household industry name....guard.me, but what not everyone knows is that guard.me is so much more than an insurance provider.
guard.meCARES (Compassionate Awareness Response for Educators and Students) is the organisation's mental and physical wellness platform encompassing all of their risk mitigation programs, tools and resources that go well beyond health insurance. What guard.meCARES does each day impacts the quality of life of students and their experience.
Some of the services and programmes that fall under the guard.meCARES umbrella include:
- Wellness and Learning Initiatives
- Crisis Response Services
- Crisis Care Management
- mobileDOCTOR
- Healthcare Access Card
- Claims Reimbursement Card
- Customer Care Centre
- Student Experience Enhancement Programme
- and the more famous guard.me Insurance
keep.meSAFE’s innovative Student Support Program (SSP) helps students by promoting early intervention and 24/7 access to mental health support. keep.meSAFE by guard.me helps students manage their mental health so they can fully participate in academic life and complete their studies. keep.meSAFE is the first support program to use linguistically and culturally matched licensed clinicians, providing students a welcoming place where they are comfortable to seek help.
In the coming weeks we will be sharing various other features on other interesting and inspiring things which are happening around us in international education.
