Health workers are facing unprecedented circumstances and pressure. This takes a toll on mental health.
EAP for Healthcare workers
Long and irregular hours, heavy workloads and being on the front line in the fight against COVID undoubtedly increases stress and causes mental health issues, including burnout for our health workers.
With a shortage of skilled healthcare practitioners, including in the allied health and support spaces, employers need to ensure they have the right EAP partner who takes the mental health of their staff seriously.
That’s why Connect Psych is your perfect EAP partner.
We aren’t a benefits and rewards company. We don’t outsource mental health counselling to contractors. We are Australian owned and run solely by our team of registered and experienced mental health practitioners.
"The pandemic has exacerbated anxiety in our healthcare workers, but even prior, research has shown that while approximately 14% of all Australians experience depression in their lifetime, 18% of Australian medical students and 21% of Australian doctors have been diagnosed with depression."
