As COVID-19 has brought a great deal of stress and uncertainty into our lives, workplaces and homes, the team from the Blue Cross Employee Assistance Program has compiled Mental Health Support Through the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic, a resource to provide mental health advice and insights to support you and your family during this time.

The booklet addresses a breadth of tailored topics you may find helpful. (e.g. Support for workers in the crisis response, Managing anxiety, Family stress and Difficult events in the workplace).

While they have suspended in person counselling in keeping with social distancing protocols, the EAP team is offering telephone, video conferencing and text-based counselling options for anyone seeking counselling services through their Employee Assistance benefits.
