INS LifeGuard Thanking Our Staff for 2021
INS LifeGuard • November 2, 2021
When January 1, 2021, arrived, many people were happy to put 2020 behind them.
However, 2021 didn’t exactly turn out much better.
Between multiple lockdowns and panic buying sessions, bushfires ravaging our land, and COVID-19 mutating into a more contagious and deadly strain, it’s an understatement to say that it’s been a rough year mentally.
During these times of uncertainty, the employees of INS continued to deliver exceptional service and go above and beyond for all our clients who are going through tough times. Without them, our offerings would not have been able to operate in the same way, and we wouldn’t have been able to provide support to those who needed it.
Now it’s our turn to thank our staff and ensure we take care of them just as they do for our customers.
Our Family Members
As you might already know, INS LifeGuard has been a family-run business based in the Illawarra since 1984. Despite changing our name from Illawarra Nursing Service, we have continued to operate with the same values, and that includes taking care of our staff members, who we also consider family.
This includes our health care workers, nurses, call centre operators, administrative staff, software developers, technicians, and sales representatives. All of our people play a vital role in keeping INS LifeGuard up and running. We’ve even been fortunate enough to have some members of our staff work with us for over 20 years. That’s why it’s vital we ensure they’re looked after.
Taking Care of Our People
After more than 18 months of fires, floods, and COVID-19, the team at INS LifeGuard have supported clients who have struggled with these devastating situations. Many of these conversations have been challenging to handle with some people suffering from mental health issues and thoughts of self-harm.
As you can imagine, these types of discussions can affect the mental health of our staff as well. To ensure our people are getting the support they need, INS LifeGuard has provided additional paid leave that can be taken when it’s convenient for them.
Looking to 2022
There’s no doubt that the world will have its fingers crossed that 2022 will be much more positive. Like every year, INS LifeGuard will continue to support our customers and clients and ensure that our staff members are looked after as well.
By introducing initiatives such as rapid antigen testing and additional paid leave for staff members, we will be able to continue to provide our exceptional service offerings. We even hope that our staff members will stay with us for another 20 years.
