DEAR Behavioral Health Program |
|
The Behavioral Wellness Program (BWP) is based on the DEAR Behavioral Health System. The sources and symptoms of stress are unique to each individual and there is not an ultimate solution that eliminates all behavioral health risks at once. A finely tuned assessment leads to individually tailored solutions. Using a four-step process, we empower you to improve the quality of your life - whether you are concerned with only one stress situation or overwhelmed by many. We provide the information, motivation and support you need to make real-life changes.
Four Steps to Stress Control:
- Discovery: Take the Personal Stress Navigator, our interactive online assessment. Identify your sources and symptoms of stress and those personal resources and health behaviors that predict resiliency to stress and its consequences. Get a clear picture of the problem and you are on the way to fixing it.
- Engagement: Read your personal report that highlights high-risk areas. The report steers you to extensive Recommended Resources that give you solutions tailored to your unique problems with stress.
- Action: When you are ready to take action on one or more identified issues, we guide you through a process of writing down the benefits, barriers, supports and next steps necessary to reach your goals. We make action easier by providing you with model action plans you can tailor just for you.
- Reward: This is what it's all about - a healthier, happier, more productive life for you, increased productivity and lower benefits costs for your employer, and fewer and less expensive claims for the health insurer. The employer receives (1) a more productive work force, (2) identification and resolution of organizational inefficiences, (3) coordination with Disease Management programs, and (4) lower-health care costs. The combined savings mean a win, win, win for all the stakeholders in your behavioral health.
