Free wellbeing support for General Practice and pharmacy staff

NQPHN continues to offer free EAP support for all general practice and pharmacy staff in response to the current COVID-19 pandemic.

An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a work-based intervention program designed to enhance the emotional, mental, and general psychological wellbeing of all employees and includes services for immediate family members.
