FAQ’s
ilumen is the mental health equivalent of getting your blood pressure measured. It’s a simple way to get a picture of your overall mental health, objectively using physiological and psychological data. We know that a lot of users who participate in using ilumen are surprised by some of their results, and were pleased to learn that there might be some simple actions to take that could help make life easier. If you are travelling well, it doesn’t hurt to know if you and your body are on the same page.
Absolutely. Your results are protected by legal and professional codes of practice to protect your privacy. If you’ve joined as part of an organisation, your results will be included in an overall de-identified report back to your organisation.
Your organisation will NOT be able to access your personal information or report. Your organisation will receive a de-identified dashboard of organisational mental health to improve the mental health of your organisation.
Your report may prompt you to visit a primary care practitioner such as a GP, Family Physician or Psychologist. If you don’t have a GP, call your local medical centre and ask for a doctor with an interest in mental health, taking your report with you will help.
Your organisations EAP may also provide a way to access help. If the matter is urgent or you need to speak to a counsellor now, please view the Global Crisis Helplines section below for your national local services.
No longer is mental health all about a couch and answering personal questions. We can now use physiological information from your body to look at your mental health. A wearable device allows us to capture biometrics which tells us about your body’s current physiological state.
No trouble at all, you can still use ilumen! The biometric measure of mental health is only one component of ilumen, and if you do not have a device you will still be able to access the assessment and your personalised report, with full access to the ilumen resources suite to help you take the next step to improve or strengthen your mental health.
