CVS Health

One of the best ways to foster our #OneTeam mentality? By collaborating across our business units – like how our Oak Street Health and supply chain teams recently met to discuss the omnichannel health care experience we’re building for consumers. 🤝  

For many #Military members, transitioning into the civilian workforce can be daunting. That’s why #TeamCVS member and retired UH-60 Helicopter Crew Chief Rafael Lopez II is on another kind of mission – to help military personnel find meaningful employment at companies like CVS Health. See how ⬇️   🏅 Skillbridge, through the United States Department of Defense, allows service men and women to train in a position for 12 weeks at companies like CVS Health before they retire from service.   🧠 Through the program, and with the support of colleagues like Rafael, service members can transfer the skills they acquired in the Armed Forces to a fulfilling career.   👩 Meet Roxanne Lyons, a 22-year Air Force veteran and SkillBridge graduate, who joined our Enterprise Resilience team last year and now helps monitor for hazards that could impact colleagues, assets and business operations.    We’re thankful for our colleagues who are committed to building bridges that benefit our amazing military men and women. Thank you, Rafael and Roxanne, for your service to our country and to the communities we serve!   Read more: https://cvs.co/4eEHt72 

“CVS Health is really intentional about cultivating our brand of trust,” shares Dr. Michelle Gourdine, Chief Medical Officer for CVS Caremark. But why is trust in health care so vital? 💡 When people feel comfortable leaning on their providers for support, they’re more likely to stick to their medication schedule and receive regular check-ups and screenings. 🏡, And with 85% of people living within 10 miles of a CVS Pharmacy® location, the role of our pharmacists as this true partner in patient care is greater than ever before. Speaking with Fortune, Dr. Gourdine explores why trust is foundational and how CVS Health is cultivating trust for our consumers. Watch more in the video below. ⬇️

A stable and meaningful #Career can help people prioritize their health, which is why we're investing in programs that eliminate barriers to #Employment and empower community members, like Romeo Spears. ⤵️   🎉 This month, we announced the opening of two new Workforce Innovation and Talent Centers (WITCs) and one Community Resource Center in Oklahoma City, OK alongside Oklahoma Department of Human Services and Work Ready Oklahoma.   🧩 Combining workforce training programs and critical health resources, our centers aim to support employment opportunities and improved health outcomes across the country.   ❤️ Romeo, an Oklahoma City native, attended a Work Ready Oklahoma session and through our program is now working as a pharmacy technician at a local CVS Pharmacy, supporting his community directly with their health and well-being. Thank you, Romeo!   Learn more about our new centers: https://lnkd.in/e9HfibfP

“We've come so far with HIV care, yet so many health care disparities exist among the LGBTQ+ community.” – Dr. Cathy (Mary) Moffitt, MD, FAAP, CHIE, SVP & Chief Medical Officer, Aetna. At CVS Health, we're addressing these challenges with a focus on enhancing member experience, benefits and network excellence. Join us this #PrideMonth in celebrating the progress we’ve made and recognizing there is more work to do to address health disparities among the LGBTQ+ community.

Empowering our LGBTQ+ colleagues through a culture of inclusivity and belonging is what we're all about — and proudly showing up in our communities that reflect the full spectrum of diversity during events like #PrideMonth celebrations is how we make it happen! 🏳️🌈   Throughout the month, #TeamCVS colleagues across the country joined forces to celebrate #Pride and empower one another at events hosted in our own backyards, including near our offices in Middletown, CT, Providence, RI and New York City.    Our mission has always been to champion people of all backgrounds and truly represent the diverse communities that we serve nationwide. Happy Pride! 🌈❤️

Health care is complex, but the experience for our consumers, members and patients doesn’t have to be. Tilak Mandadi, our EVP, Ventures and Chief Digital, Data, Analytics and Technology Officer, shared with Fortune’s John Kell more on our efforts to simplify health care: https://cvs.co/3XwuXAi

To honor Juneteenth this week, #TeamCVS colleagues gathered virtually for a panel discussion hosted by our Black Colleague Resource Group (BCRG) to elevate our theme: “I am My Ancestors' Wildest Dreams.” How are our colleagues bringing this meaning to life?    It all starts with passion and purpose – and, as our panelists explored, making an impact in our diverse communities, empowering one another and embracing the challenges along the way.     Thanks to our panelists, Tanya C., Donna Martin, Leander Monk and M. Natalie Achong, MD, MHL for taking us through your personal and professional journeys and imparting your wisdom on us all. #Juneteenth  

Through CVS Health Ventures, we're not just investing; we're actively driving health care innovation with companies like Maven Clinic, Oshi Health, and Monogram Health to deliver meaningful results. See how: https://cvs.co/3xqPgo2

Juneteenth is the oldest known holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the United States, marking a significant step towards freedom for Black Americans. As we continue to make progress to a more equitable future, we’re reminded of the importance and necessity of standing for equity and justice for our Black colleagues and consumers, along with the many communities we serve. Happy #Juneteenth!
