"Over 28 years of reliable EAP & Behavioral Healthcare Services"
Work/Life Services
Most of life's most important challenges and decisions require the ability to obtain information, the ability to manage stress and the ability to execute good judgment. Since 1983, Yost professional counselors have been providing evaluation, counseling, case management and referral services for a wide range of work/life adjustment issues including child development, parenting, childcare options, geriatric development, eldercare placement, financial challenges and legal issues, among others. Yost EAP provides a comprehensive approach to work/life issues that includes direct counselor involvement, in addition to a rich compendium of interactive, web based content that employees and family members can access and explore on their own. Yost EAP can help employees and family members obtain assistance with the following topics among others.
Childcare: Choosing good and safe childcare is one of the most important decisions a parent can make. Nurturing and effective childcare lays the foundation for healthy growth and development. But the selection process requires patience, time, and an understanding of what criteria to consider when selecting a provider. You will have different questions depending upon the age and needs of your child and family. Yost Work/Life counselors help parents ask the right questions and look for telltale signs in evaluating their options. We will direct parents to the appropriate state licensed databases to begin their searches but will also help guide them through the challenges of the decision making process as they consider programs such as daycare providers, pre-kindergarten programs and head start programs.
Eldercare: Many older people continue to lead vibrant and productive lives. However, for some, there is a decline in output, vigor and autonomy. Most people have a tradition of cherishing the contributions of our elderly citizens while at the same time, recognizing that they may need assistance coping with a variety of life's tasks. As they reach out to help their aging parents or significant others, many adults find themselves sandwiched in the middle of dual caregiver roles, as they experience demands and obligations from both their children and their parents, or in some cases ailing spouses. Often, they can benefit considerably from assistance provided by Yost professional counselors who can help direct them to proper legal, financial and placement resources while also guiding them in their decision making processes. Our counselors will blend hands on case management with web based resources in helping employees and family members manage their own stress as they obtain the services they need.
Financial & Legal Services: Most people find decisions associated with financial or legal issues inherently stressful and challenging. Yost EAP provides a wide range of counseling and web bases services that can help. In addition to help with obtaining a lawyer, a few of the topics our dual counseling/information service model can help with include:
Wills and estate planning Buying or renting a home Cleaning up credit problems Retirement planning Adoption and guardianship issues Identity theft protection Small claims court Accidents and traffic tickets Bankruptcy Divorce Immigration
