As we all know, recent years have been like no other—they have consisted of many challenges and change. It’s changed the way many organizations do business, how our teachers connect with their students, how we socialize with friends and family, how our healthcare workers do their job and so much more.
Throughout the challenges of this year, I cannot stress enough the importance of engaging with your Employee Assistance Program (EAP)—we are here to help you and your family members through all of these challenges and changes. Through your EAP you can connect with resources to support you both personally and professionally—with whatever you’re going through.
Your VITAL WorkLife EAP includes:
- Counseling for you and your family
- No cost financial consultations and resources
- No cost legal assistance
- In-the-moment behavioral health support with a master’s or doctorate level counselor, available 24/7
- Nurse Peer Coaching—a confidential resource, connecting you with a nurse outside of your organization, someone who understands your profession and can help set goals
- Educator Peer Coaching—talk with an educator from outside your organization who understands what you are going through and can help you set personal and professional goals
- Parent Coaching—Parent Coaching is not about telling how to “parent” as much as it is about supporting a parent on their parenting journey–which can reach far beyond just child rearing
- Coaching for career building, goal setting and achievement
- The VITAL WorkLife App so you can connect with your resources anytime—day or night
- Member Website: Resources such as articles and online seminars for your work & life on hundreds of topics, such as parenting, healthy living, elder care, mental health, aging, financial tips and more
MEMBERS: Access your resources by calling 800.383.1908 or through the VITAL WorkLife App.
Below are a variety of articles and resources developed to help you and your family members cope with various challenges.
