About this Event
Join us on November 14th as the CPRS Ottawa-Gatineau Board of Directors proudly welcomes two distinguished speakers, Karen Monaghan and Guillaume Tremblay, for an insightful event on proactive mental health management in the workplace.
Karen Monaghan is the Director of Communications at The Royal, one of Canada’s leading mental health care, teaching, and research hospitals. With nearly 20 years of experience in health care and high tech communications, Karen leads a dynamic team delivering impactful internal and external communications to support care and research at The Royal. Her team collaborates with clinicians and scientists to drive mental health initiatives that enhance the well-being of patients, staff, and the community. A Carleton University alumna, Karen is a firm believer in the power of storytelling to drive positive change.
Guillaume Tremblay serves as the lead Nurse Practitioner at The Royal, where he delivers primary care and spearheads health promotion initiatives at the Brockville Mental Health Centre. With a Master’s in Nursing from Athabasca University and certifications in cognitive behavioral therapy, Guillaume brings a wealth of expertise in mental health. His research, focused on cognitive neuroscience, emphasizes the importance of regular mental maintenance for optimal brain function. Guillaume co-leads the "Mental Hygiene Challenge," a growing initiative encouraging individuals to prioritize their mental well-being.
Together, Karen and Guillaume will introduce the Mental Hygiene Challenge, a program that equips participants with practical tools to proactively manage their mental health, much like physical health. This session will provide you with personal tools for well-being and a program you can implement within your teams to foster a supportive workplace environment. Additionally, we’ll explore how individual wellness initiatives can be paired with organizational strategies to address systemic issues like engagement and workload, creating a truly resilient workplace.
Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and practical tools from Karen and Guillaume to support both personal and team well-being.
