Health and Wellness

The AIT Health Unit Encourages you to care for yourself, medically and personally. The following resources are available to you and your family members to keep yourselves healthy.

In the midst of our busy days and the challenges we all face, it’s easy to forget one of the most important things: taking care of ourselves.

During times of stress, our minds and bodies need extra kindness and attention. The AIT Health Unit wants to gently remind each of you to pause, breathe, and nurture your well-being. Remember, caring for yourself is not a luxury—it’s a vital part of staying strong, balanced, and able to support one another.
