Wellness Resources
Juggling many responsibilities at work and at home can be a challenge. Getting help juggling these responsibilities is one of the primary reasons employees call the Employee Assistance Program. We have many resources to help you maintain your “wellness.” Whether it’s stress management, issues with a co-worker or supervisor, grief issues, finding capable childcare or elder care, or resolving a legal or financial issue, the Employee Assistance Program of Mount Auburn Hospital has special services to help you meet these needs.

Today many families face challenges in finding appropriate child care services. And once you find a service, you may be uncertain just what questions to ask the provider, or how to evaluate the program. Counselors at the EAP can assist you in answering these questions and in accessing local databases and agencies for services. Mount Auburn Hospital EAP also collaborates with a national referral service that maintains an extensive database of licensed day care centers, summer camps, and other providers of child care services. |

Available to meet your needs through the web site or our toll-free telephone number, the staff will discuss with you your specific child care needs, including the ages of your children, the location and times of service, and any specific additional requests.
This service will then contact providers in your area, and within 3-4 days, will mail you a list of facilities that meet your requirements and have current openings. They will also provide a booklet about how to assess child care services, with suggested questions to help you make a decision about the care of your child.
It is important to note that not every company subscribes to this expanded service.

to help you understand your rights and options is very important. EAP
counselors can refer you to local attorneys and financial services.

Many of our companies provide for additional services, including telephone consultation with an attorney or a financial planner and subsequent reduced fee services. Financial services are provided by certified financial planners, both individuals and larger agencies, including American Express Financial Services.
