In this youth-focused wellness centre dialogue and counselling are key. So is ensuring confidentiality. Foundry Penticton offers integrated health and social services for young people ages 12-24. Their mission is to provide safe, non-judgmental care, information and resources.
When we were nearing completion on our new clinic in Penticton, we were concerned that conversations in counseling rooms may be overheard from neighbouring rooms and corridors, and that privacy and confidentiality may become an issue in open workspaces. These issues had been successfully addressed in the Foundry Kelowna clinic by using sound masking, and based on the great feedback from them, we decided to install it in Foundry Penticton. Thanks to the Vibra-Sonic team for providing a system that fit our budget and requirements! We and our on-site partners are very pleased with the results. Our clients can have highly confidential conversations with their health care provider knowing that it stays private, and the transition for our staff into an open office environment has gone smoothly.
