The Employee Assistance Program

Professional, Confidential Counseling

What is the Montefiore Nyack Hospital Employee Assistance Program (EAP)?
The EAP is a professional and confidential counseling service available to you and your family to help resolve personal problems before they affect your health, family or job.

What kind of help is available?

An experienced professional can provide you with help to understand and resolve problems relating to stress, couple and family difficulties, alcoholism and drug abuse, depression, financial pressures and other personal and emotional problems. No problem is too serious or too simple.

What will happen when I call?

You will set up an appointment to discuss your situation and decide upon a plan of action. Sometimes the problem can be resolved within a few visits; in other cases, you may be referred locally for additional help.

What about confidentiality?

We can share no information about your personal matters with your employer or any other person unless you authorize such disclosure in writing.

How much does it cost?

There is no cost to you and members of your family for services provided by the EAP. In those cases where referrals are necessary, they can often be made to prescreened professionals or community organizations whose charges may be covered within the limits of your health insurance.

Why is the EAP being offered?

Progressive organizations are providing Employee Assistance Programs to their employees because it’s good business and because they care about their employees. Each of us, regardless of our position in the organization, faces a variety of problems in our daily lives. Usually, we can work them out. Sometimes our problems become too much for us to handle and they affect our personal happiness, our family relations, our performance at work and even our health. When this occurs, we often need professional help in resolving them. With early recognition and prompt professional support, many problems can be resolved before they become serious concerns.
