W&R - Before Operational Stress (BOS) Program

BOS is a resiliency-based program that empowers public safety, healthcare workers and physicians to take charge of their mental health. BOS is an evidence-informed program that builds mental health resiliency, skills and knowledge on managing the stress and trauma experienced by many front-line healthcare workers. It uniquely combines theoretical and experiential learning procedures to mitigate the effects of operational stress.

Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) staff and physicians are invited to participate in the Before Operational Stress Program (BOS) with Wayfound Mental Health Group. Already 1000+ people have participated! The SHA has secured an additional 300 seats in the BOS program, at no direct cost to register and participate. Please take advantage of this opportunity as another mental health resource available to employees and physicians.

Recent research on the BOS Program show statistically significant improvements in symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, stress, and alcohol use over time observed in participants who completed the program. Similarly, improvements were observed in measures of quality of life, perceived social support, resilience, emotional regulation, and stigma.

With BOS Online, you can self-direct your participation, with approximately eight hours of online learning. BOS Online will help you assess your situation, self-reflect, and put practical steps into place.
