Workplace wellness employees can actually sustain in real life.
Foster Health helps employers close the knowing-to-doing gap in employee wellbeing — through practical, evidence-based behaviour change support your people can actually maintain inside the demands of modern work.
So wellness stops fading at week three. And starts showing up in retention, engagement, and culture
The real problem
The problem isn’t that your people don’t care about their health.
Most of them already do
The challenge is sustaining health habits consistently inside modern work:
constant demand
chronic stress
limited recovery
overloaded calendars
competing priorities that never lighten
Awareness isn't the gap. The gap is between knowing what supports wellbeing — and consistently doing it.
That's the gap Foster Health was built to close.
What You’ve Likely Already Tried
You've probably already tried:
wellness apps
lunch-and-learns
step challenges
awareness campaigns
fitness subsidies
motivational speakers
EAP reminders
All useful. But most lift awareness for a few weeks — then real life takes over again.
That's not a content problem. It's an implementation problem.
And it's why most workplace wellness initiatives have strong sign-ups and quiet follow-through.
What is different about Foster Health
Wellness that fits real life. And works on hard days too.
Foster Health is not another wellness initiative your team will quietly abandon.
We combine:
Evidence-based behaviour change — drawn from 25+ years in healthcare innovation and study at the University of Oxford
Practical implementation — designed for busy professionals, not aspirational ideals
Peer accountability — the missing piece in most wellness programming
Small, sustainable shifts — habits that survive a stressful Tuesday
We don't ask your people to overhaul their lives. We help them build the small habits that compound into lasting health.
Because small hinges open big doors.

Foster Health is led by Eileen Patterson
A healthcare entrepreneur, certified health coach, and organizational change expert with 25+ years leading change in healthcare systems across Canada and internationally.
Eileen brought the first peer leader training for chronic disease self-management programs to Canada. She has studied at the University of Oxford and leads Foster Health from Calgary.
She now applies the same evidence-based approach to one specific question:
How do you help busy, capable people build the health habits they already know they need — and actually keep them?
That question is the heart of Foster Health.
Let’s talk about what your team needs
Every organization is different. Every team is depleted in slightly different ways.
The right starting point depends on your culture, your capacity, and the change you're trying to make.
A 30-minute strategy call is where we figure that out together.
