Welcome to the WELL Office, a dedicated space within McGill University Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences that is committed to fostering the holistic well-being of learners from the Ingram School of Nursing, School of Physical and Occupational Therapy, and School of Communication Sciences and Disorders. We are made available to you throughout your training by creating, promoting, and sustaining a culture of wellness and resilience within the learning environment.
We’ve changed throughout the years to better serve our learners’ needs. Back in 2011, our office was formerly known as MedWell. In 2015, it underwent a transformation and adopted the name we know today, The WELL Office (Wellness Enhanced Lifelong Learning). Our evolution in 2015 marked a significant step towards a broader, more inclusive approach to well-being. This name change was influenced by the profound concept of wellness, drawing inspiration from the symbolic village well—an everlasting source providing not just water, but also nourishment for the soul. In 2023, the decision was made for our office to refocus on the three health professional schools (ISoN, SPOT, and SCSD) while the Office of Medical Leaner Affairs was created for the School of Medicine.
At the heart of our mission is the belief that a healthy mind and body are fundamental to academic success. Our Wellness Consultants provide a confidential and safe space for learners, offering support to navigate challenges that may impact their overall wellness and learning experience.
We are here to empower you on your journey towards a balanced and thriving university experience. You can access our services either virtually or on campus from Monday to Friday. Review the availability of our Wellness Consultants and schedule an appointment at your convenience.
Join us in embracing a culture of well-being, where self-care and personal growth are integral to the university experience. The WELL Office is more than a place; it's a commitment to your holistic development throughout your academic journey. Welcome to a community that prioritizes your well-being.
