MiSalud recently sat down with Amy Taylor, Head of Wellness at Taylor Farms, to discuss supporting mental health for Latino agricultural workers. Some key takeaways: ???? Mental health needs among Latino farmworkers are both common and complex. ?? 11 years of learnings from Taylor Farms’ wellness programs reinforce the need to build trust and listen to what employees are asking for, rather than imposing resources on them. ?? Mental health can show up at work as a physical symptom, like headache or muscle pain, and as personality issues. These have direct and measurable impacts on personnel issues, productivity and health costs. ?? The prevalence of grief prompted MiSalud to start special grief programs in collaboration with our thanatologist, who studies the impact of loss and bereavement. Thank you to AGRICULTURAL PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION and California Farm Labor Contractor Association for bringing this important topic to members. If you’re interested in bringing same-day mental and physical health support to your Latino essential workers, please reach out to MiSalud. https://lnkd.in/guz5XMFH

“My parents came to this country as migrant field workers…. I was able to go to Stanford and then be an early employee at Google. And after that, I left to start several companies that have been very focused on doing well and doing good.” Thank you, Bismarck Lepe.

"Technology plays a key role in enabling that trust and making sure that you don't leave anyone behind,” MiSalud Health CEO Cindy Blanco Ochoa told Modern Healthcare's Health Equity Conference this week. We leverage #telehealth’s ability to connect Spanish-speaking patients to Latino health coaches, but we always start with the premise that for technology to work in healthcare, human contact, appropriate onboarding, and trust must come first. With our tech and high-trust approach, our patients get immediate support from a team that’s been able to resolve over 80% of their care without needing to escalate. #Inclusion #HRTechnology
