Description
Approved for 1.5 PDHs in Domain II
Screening and brief interventions (SBIs) are efficacious, but may be difficult to implement in EAPs due to practical limitations in today’s economy. This panel discusses how SBI was implemented in a Call Center and face-to-face EAP. We highlight how SBIs were implemented when an employer was undergoing significant organizational changedue to merger activity and downsizing. We will address questions widely applicable to EAP administrators and clinicians, call center EAPs, and face-to-face EAPs. Further, this panel is unique in that we will discuss how to increase EAP’s value by measuring outcomes suchas presenteeism and absenteeism, implement workflows during an employer merger, and engage part-time affiliate/contract clinicians.
