She may be called a hero for helping save the life of an 88-year-old great grandmother, but for Bupa telehealth nurse, Kirsten Cooney, she says she was just doing her job. The former ICU nurse was having a routine check-in telehealth call with our customer Leonore, who started having a stroke while on the phone. She became concerned for Leonore when her speech suddenly became confused and incoherent. While reassuring Leonore everything would be OK, Kirsten arranged an ambulance and stayed on the line until help arrived. “I think you learn over time that when you are in an emergency situation, it's very rarely a straight line,” she says. “I wouldn't call myself a hero. I think, you show up as a health professional and you’re here to help people. I was just doing my job.” In an emotion reunion, Leonore told Nine's A Current Affair, Kirsten saved her life. “If I’d been by myself, I probably wouldn’t have called for help,” she said. They share their incredible story with us - read and watch more: https://lnkd.in/g9YANcHG To watch the story on A Current Affair, the link is in the comments.

Men’s mental health can be a three-generation challenge, from teenagers struggling with identity to some of the unseen burdens facing middle-aged men, to older men experiencing isolation. In our latest issue of The Big Question we explore how mental health can impact men at different life stages, how the challenges for each generation are distinct but also interconnected, and initiatives around the world that are offering support. Read more from Dr Naveen Puri, Bupa UK Insurance Medical Director, on why it’s time to break the silence and why it's important that we create an environment of speaking up and seeking help. #MensMentalHealth #MensHealthMonth #Movember #BupaNeedALift
