Homewood Human Solutions has just launched a new comprehensive app it’s calling e-AP.
“Our clients have told us that they’re struggling with the increasing demands of work and home and need our services—but they’re often too busy to access them,” says Craig Thompson, CEO of Homewood Human Solutions. “e-AP is designed for mobile searching for health information to help make people’s lives a little less stressful. They can browse our library while on the bus home or quickly request face-to-face services while waiting for their lunch order.”
Following is a list of the app’s key features:
- specially created videos and podcasts on subjects such as relaxation and reducing tension, visualization, caregiving and work/life balance, building self-confidence, working after retirement, anger management and addiction;
- expert written articles on parenting, nutrition, physical and emotional well-being, legal and financial issues, retirement, workplace issues, as well as information for people leaders;
- interactive tools to help with physical, mental and lifestyle improvement goals, including quizzes, checklists and action planners (e.g., parenting skills assessment, nutrition quiz, childcare checklist and anxiety self-assessment);
- mobile requests to access counselling and pathways to assistance program e-services (e.g., e-courses, health improvement planning tools, child assistance program information to help with workplace planning and decision-making);
- mobile integration of social media sites with direct links to Homewood Human Solutions’ HealthyWorkplaces blog, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn; and
- bilingual access.
This app is free and compatible with the latest release of iPhones and iPads, and it is available on iTunes and Google Play (formerly the Android marketplace) and via the Homewood Human Solutions’ website.
