Provider Network / Referrals

EAP has developed a network of providers and other resources to ensure you receive the highest level of care. If you or your family member require more than the contracted number of visits or more urgent care is required than that provided by EAP, you will be referred to a resource that meets your individualized needs.

Critical Incident Response

A “critical incident” is an event that has the power to overwhelm usually effective coping mechanisms. When a critical incident occurs, both the organization and its employees are impacted. EAP offers an immediate, highly sophisticated response to critical incidents to enhance and support the resilience of the organization and its employees and to facilitate return to work productivity.
