David Vittoria, Carisk’s Chief Behavioral Officer, will cover a range of topics at National Comp next month in two panel discussions. On Nov 11, he’ll be a part of The Intelligence Multiplier: Unlocking Better Outcomes with AI in Workers’ Comp and Nov 12 will find him on From Patient to Advocate: Transforming the Recovery Experience. Vittoria was kind enough to answer a few of questions on the sessions.

At this year’s National Comp, Carisk Partners will take the stage to share bold perspectives on what’s shaping the future of workers’ compensation — from artificial intelligence to collaboration and patient advocacy. Across three thought-provoking sessions, Carisk’s clinical leaders and partners will explore how innovation, data, and compassion come together to transform recovery and improve outcomes.

The number one resource available to understand our mental wellness is ourselves. Checking in with ourselves on a consistent basis can help us better understand and isolate divergence from mental wellness. Only we know where we are on our mental wellness journey and where we want to be. We need to want to do research and be proactive for the most fulfilling outcome. Finding resources should take a holistic approach that incorporates a mental wellness routine that includes at a minimum:

Societally, mental health has been synonymous with mental illness.  The negative connotations, misconceptions, stigmas, and general lack in understanding have become even more pronounced in ever connected modern society. Once we, as a society, understand the positive aspects of mental wellness we will be better prepared to accept mental health for what it is and work towards improved resilience, perspective, and overall quality of life.

In a busy world we often find ourselves focused on daily responsibilities, parenting, working, socializing, and sometimes just getting through the day. While these tasks are an important aspect of daily life, it is equally important to take care of our own mental health in day-to-day experiences to strengthen our mental wellness.

With the current world population estimated to be 8.2 billion, everyone contributes their uniqueness to what makes the fabric of the world. While we maintain a vast amount of uniqueness between individuals, it is said that we have more in common than differences.  One universal factor that exists within us is mental health.  Within mental health is a state known as mental wellness.
