Leading employee wellbeing specialist, WRKIT, has significantly expanded its wellbeing offering via a new partnership with digital healthcare provider Doctor Care Anywhere, bringing the revolutionary service to its users in Ireland.

The partnership launching today will provide WRKIT’s client portfolio across Ireland, which includes the Deloitte, Peter Mark and Circle K and encompasses over 200,000 employees with the opportunity to access professional healthcare support, GP appointments and prescriptions anywhere, at any time.

Through Doctor Care Anywhere, WRKIT users across Ireland will be able to book and access GP appointments within 24 hours, regardless of location or time. Those who need healthcare support, whether for physical or mental health, can book both one-off appointments and longer-term treatment plans lasting up to six months, with discounts available for longer treatment plans.

Peter Jenkinson, CEO and co-founder of WRKIT, said: “Doctor Care Anywhere are making GP access available to all, which is hugely important given the current challenges around getting appointments. As long-time admirers of the wonderful work Doctor Care Anywhere are doing, we’re delighted to be able to launch the service together in Ireland, ensuring our network of 200k employees across the country can get instant access, for themselves and their families, to the healthcare they need.

“The past two years have shone a spotlight on employee wellbeing like never before and, in the modern-day, those who need healthcare support should be able to access help whenever they need it, no matter where they may be. Our work with the fantastic team at Doctor Care Anywhere will now allow us to provide this service to the employees and families of all of our clients across the Republic of Ireland.”

Bayju Thakar, CEO and Founder of Doctor Care Anywhere said: “We are very proud to partner with the fantastic team at WRKIT to enable their customers across Ireland to have access to high quality healthcare. It’s very important to us that we work with companies who share our focus on delivering a great customer and patient experience and the WRKIT team show real passion in their approach to employee wellbeing and engagement. Like us, they recognise the importance of a preventative approach to wellbeing, providing the right solutions before problems have time to escalate.”
