Real Wellbeing is more than just your physical health. It’s your standard of living and feeling safe in your home. It’s your personal relationships and being connected to your community. It’s about what you want to achieve in life, while having the security to get out and do what makes you happy. Put simply, Real Wellbeing is your overall quality of life and how satisfied you are with your life as a whole.
The seven domains are: standard of living, health, achieving in life, personal relationships, personal safety, community connectedness and future security.
The Australian Unity Personal Wellbeing Index offers a quick and simple test for those wanting to measure their wellbeing and see if it is in the normal range for Australians. The Advanced Wellbeing Assessment is a comprehensive survey developed in partnership with Deakin University. It asks a series of questions relating to each of the seven domains of wellbeing. After completing the assessment, you will receive a free wellbeing report, with a detailed breakdown of your wellbeing score, plus advice on help you can improve your wellbeing.
You can access the advanced wellbeing assessment in a number of ways:
Answers to the Personal Wellbeing Index will be aggregated with other responses on an anonymous basis so that we can provide you and other Members with more relevant comparisons and insights. Answers to the Advanced Wellbeing Assessment may be used for marketing purposes to provide targeted advice and suggestions of relevant services to help improve your wellbeing. The answers you provide will be used to generate a personalised wellbeing report and will not be used in any way to influence the price you pay for any products or services provided by Australian Unity.
Your personal details enable us to give a more accurate assessment of your wellbeing and benchmark your score against 20 years of data that has been collected while preparing the Australian Unity Personal Wellbeing Index. You do not have to provide this information, however our ability to reliably benchmark against this data is impacted if you do not answer all the demographic questions in the survey, or if you are under 18.
Your score has been benchmarked against 20 years of data that has been collected while preparing the Australian Unity Wellbeing Index.
We have been using the Australian Unity Wellbeing Index to measure the wellbeing of Australians for more than 20 years. The measures used to create questions for the Advanced Wellbeing Assessment have been developed by Deakin University following an in-depth review of existing research literature and measurement tools.
The score you receive is a general indication only and is not a substitute for a professional advice. If you have concerns about your wellbeing in any of the domains, we recommend that you seek appropriate professional advice.
To best assess meaningful changes to your wellbeing over time, we recommend you take the assessment every six months.
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer this at the present time, although we hope to include this functionality sometime soon.
To see your previous scores and view changes to your wellbeing over time, visit your Member account.
