Health-promotion consulting · British Columbia
Evidence + engagement, working together to make outcomes that last.
Cardea Health Consulting partners with organizations working on the things that shape how people live, work, and age.
Two practices. One method. Over two decades of work in healthy-aging and workplace health across BC.
For BC municipalities, health authorities, and communities.
Age-friendly planning, accessibility, community engagement, and population health strategy.
Age-friendly community planning
WHO-aligned assessments, older-adult engagement, and action plans BC municipalities can actually deliver.
02Accessibility plans & audits
Built-environment and service reviews that meet the Accessible British Columbia Act — and go beyond compliance.
03Research, facilitation, and capacity bulding
Inclusive engagement that reaches residents usually left out — across languages, formats, and access needs.
04Health-promotion strategy
Evidence rooted in the social determinants of health, translated into plans you can measure.
For BC employers: public sector, non-profit, and private.
We audit your disability claims, health data, drug costs, existing wellbeing programs, and build your evidence-based strategy.
Wellbeing strategy & employee engagement
We put boots on the ground to talk to employees directly about their wellbeing needs.
02Policy & environment redesign
Change the conditions, not just the messaging, so the supportive path is the default.
03Manager & team capacity-building
Equip the people closest to staff to do wellbeing well, day to day.
04Evaluation & reporting
We use the plan-do-act evaulation cycle to make sure your wellbeing programs are outcome-based.
Wellbeing is shaped by systems. We design your systems.
Four commitments hold across every project, whether it's an age-friendly plan or a workplace program.
Listen
We start by hearing from the employees or residents in the formats and languages that work for them.
Plan
We turn what we hear into clear, evidence-based plans your organization can act on, grounded in evidence.
Sustain
We design for the long term, building the environments, systems, and supports intended to outlast any single project.
Evaluate
We build a system to evaluate outcomes from the beginning, designed to be used over the life of the program.
Over two decades, we've helped 20+ BC communities hear from the residents most plans miss, tens of thousands of them, including people who never fill out a form. This is just the beginning.
That's why we built Atlas.
Atlas is our accessible-first engagement platform. It gathers input from everyone, across languages, formats, and access needs, and turns it into plans you can act on.
