A friendlier future is a healthier future for all

At TELUS, we believe everyone should have access to healthcare when and where they need it, regardless of their socio-economic status. That’s why our Health for Good™ program connects underserved individuals to the health care they need. 
TELUS Health for Good provides marginalized individuals with improved access to primary health services, and supports low-income older adults to safely age in place with confidence.
