Teachers’ medical scheme administrator AON Minet has rolled out a programme aimed at improving the physical, mental and social well-being of staff.
The initiative, TSC Wellness Programme, was launched in May 2022 following a two-day webinar organised by Minet, in collaboration with the Commission.
The initiative targets to reduce hospitalisation by managing diseases and offering psychosocial support to members.
Through the Chronic Disease Management Programme, beneficiaries will have access to various services during free medical camps and virtual sensitisation sessions.
“CDM programmes are proactive and can support patients with illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, and depression,” Minet said in a statement.
TSC Chief Executive Nancy Macharia recently reaffirmed that the Commission will continue championing for better healthcare for teachers.
Dr Macharia particularly asked all the teachers to take advantage of the COVID-19 cover to protect themselves and their families. She praised Minet for being the first scheme to cover the COVID-19-related ailments.
At least 1,000 teachers and their loved ones have been admitted to various hospitals over serious COVID-19-related ailments since the first case of the pandemic was received in March 2021.
To enroll in the programme, teachers should register by logging into the company’s website via this link –
