A New Resource for Employee Assistance: Carebridge
When life presents challenges that can be overwhelming or confusing, we sometimes need help finding our way. Carebridge, Montefiore’s new Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provider, is available to assist Einstein faculty, staff, and research fellows who may need assistance, offering around-the-clock, private consultations on issues that concern you.
Among the services it offers, Carebridge provides eligible employees with guidance, resources, and referrals for five short-term, confidential counseling sessions that can assist with emotional concerns such as grief and loss, depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, substance abuse, and more. These confidential counseling sessions are provided by a licensed clinician in your community or by phone, at no cost.
Carebridge also provides unlimited access to Work-Life specialists, who can assist with identifying the most appropriate and affordable life management resources for issues related to childcare/parenting, eldercare, money management, and education planning.
You can call Carebridge toll-free at 844.300.6072, or email Carebridge at clientservice@carebridge.com for free, confidential assistance, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You also can visit www.myliferesource.com, where you can create an account to access expert articles, resources, and unique tools for addressing a wide variety of EAP and work-life issues.
To create an account, click on “Register” and enter “C4NKN” under employer access code. Then, enter a user name and password for the account to complete your registration. Be sure to jot these down in a safe place for easy reference.
Once you’re on the site you’ll be able to access the EAP’s full complement of resources and tools.
