ACTION: ISSUE In an effort to expand upon employee wellness activities, the Human Resources Division would like to utilize the employee assistance services of T.E.A.M., Inc. (Total Employee Assistance Management) to develop a program to meet a full range of employee needs. BACKGROUND When it comes to employee wellness, the City of Rosemount is shifting toward an approach that is much more preventative and proactive. We have taken the position that life is a lot more manageable if the problems within it are identified and dealt with at an early stage. It is established that when employees are happy and healthy, their performance and productivity improve. With this in mind, the Human Resources Division is .developing an employee wellness program that is all encompassing. Employee Wellness Aspect One Providing proactive support to get and keep the City's employees healthy. • Human Resources newsletter, Work @Rosemount • BluePrint for Health by Blue Cross Blue Shield (Disease Intervention), High Risk Intervention • Health Assessments • Health Clinics (i.e. flu shot, hearing /vision, bone density) • Consumer Education and Self Care • Employee Assistance Program Employee Wellness Aspect Two Adding emotional and caregiving support to help keep our employees productive. Employees are supported, encouraged and given the right tools to proactively meet the challenges of child and elder care, adoption, college, and other day to day living concerns. • DARTS Program(s) • Employee Assistance Program Employee Wellness Aspect Three Providing specialized, personal care combined with on -site training and workshops to strengthen employees, the City of Rosemount and ultimately the community. • In -house Training Opportunities • Employee Assistance Program When left unresolved, personal problems can have significant consequences for both employees and employers. Sometimes, people can handle their problems on their own. However, in many instances, people need outside assistance. That is where an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is most helpful. An effective Employee Assistance Program can serve the interest of both the employee and employee. By providing a compassionate, professional resource for assessment, referral and brief counseling, the EAP creates a healthy difference in people's lives and will help us to operate departments at peak efficiency. Keeping these aspects in mind, requests for proposal were solicited from various EAP providers. We received information from Blue Cross Blue Shield, Ceridian, Midwest and T.E.A.M. In addition, a survey was completed of surrounding cities and the providers that they utilize. After careful analysis, it has been determined that T.E.A.M., Inc. most closely matches the needs of our employee population. T.E.A.M. offers (highlighted items are not available with most other programs): 1 -3 face to face Emotional /mental Dedicated Confidential Cost: $1,800 sessions per health, supervisory representatives utilization person per coaching, chemical reports (Charges issue dependency available ranged from evaluation, drug - `k regularly $1,000- Unlimited free workplace $3,134) telephonic training, referrals — sessions child care and No ISM eldercare, Website legal and financial, education, translation services. Although funding for an EAP was not listed as a budgeted expense for 2004, Council indicated at a meeting earlier this year that they would be willing to consider additional employee training expenses. Staff is requesting that Council approve these consultant expenditures so that the City may further expand employee training opportunities (including workshops specific to supervisors) and the wellness program as a whole. SUMMARY Staff would like Council's approval to hire T.E.A.M., Inca to develop an Employee Assistance Program for the City of Rosemount.

As with all external providers, an evaluation of services will be requested from the client. Information concerning referral resources is collected on the basis of specialties, credentials, proximity, and access to the City's major medical plan. Re- credentialing is done every two years, and includes the above information and any changes, as well as examination of the evaluation/satisfaction surveys completed by each client.

If the employee /member or family member wishes to make an appointment, the receptionist makes such an appointment. If, on the other hand, the individual desires to speak immediately with a clinician, or is calling from out -of -state and is requesting services, one of our "on- call" counselors responds to the call and attempts to assist the individual immediately. If the call is an emergency, an immediate appointment is made with the on -call counselor or another counselor on staff. T.E.A.M., Inc. currently staffs 8 full time and 3 part time clinicians. There are 2 on -call therapists available at all times, and a minimum of 9 clinicians on duty during regular business hours. Executive. Director, Dr. Steven Gordon supervises the staff. Dr. Gordon comes to us with a Doctorate of Education in Counseling, a license as an Alcohol and Drug Counselor, a Registered Nursing Degree, 24 years of experience as a clinician and administrator, and previous mental health managerial experience for Blue Cross/Blue Shield. After hours calls are taken by a staff of Masters Level Social Workers or Psychologists. When the client calls, even the initial contact is always made with a Masters Level clinician. All reports of contacts are directly faxed to T.E.A.M., Inc. and followed through the next business day. The average amount of time between the initial call and the first appointment is 24 -72 hours in non - emergent situations, and immediately in critical situations. Subsequent appointments are made based on the needs of the client; sometimes the same week, the next week or spaced with several weeks in between visits. Calls are taken immediately, 24 hours /day. Emergent clients will be seen within 24 -36 hours. The assessment process begins with a thorough intake interview. T.E.A.M., Inc. has developed its own assessment tools. Additionally, a policy and procedure manual addresses the issue of assessment and referral. T.E.A.M., Inc. utilizes criteria and protocols developed by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Michigan in our Managed Care role. Provisional diagnoses are made utilizing the criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association (DSM -IV). Though no formal diagnosis is made, distinct clinical impressions are discussed with the client with the goal of discussing the presenting symptoms, treatment modalities available, and, if appropriate, referrals to external services. In extreme situations, and if warranted, the client will be personally escorted to hospital services. When referrals to external services are made, they are made based on the parameters of the City's major medical plan, access to services, specialty, proximity, and availability. The client is given at least two to three recommendations to contact. Once the client has confirmed an initial session with a clinician, a formal referral is made. In the case of a mental health referral, the counselor at T.E.A.M., Inc. contacts either the clinical director or office manager to 12 determine an appropriate match on a specialty /needs basis. As with all external providers, an evaluation of services will be requested from the client. Information concerning referral resources is collected on the basis of specialties, credentials, proximity, and access to the City's major medical plan. Re- credentialing is done every two years, and includes the above information and any changes, as well as examination of the evaluation/satisfaction surveys completed by each client. These evaluations are completed both on the client's experiences of the external providers and of their experience each step of the way with T.E.A.M., Inc. All external referrals are followed up with evaluation of services from the employee, and all mandatory referrals are followed up (after obtaining a formal release of information) with regular reporting to appropriate management regarding compliance to recommended treatment. This is done to ensure that the client receives the help that they need, and to assist the City in making informed decisions regarding each employee. In accordance with confidentiality guidelines, no specific information regarding the employee is ever revealed. T.E.A.M., Inc. will provide local services to The City of Rosemount with providers located in areas within 30 minutes or 30 miles of your facility. We always work directly with each client to ensure that the services provided are done so with clinicians in their local area with whom they are most comfortable developing a working relationship.
