What is a Union First Placement?
Union First is an employee assistance program (UAP) that focuses on helping its member with mental health treatment and job protection services. Union Members get help through various programs such as rehab placement services, advocacy, telehealth access, and job protection while receiving treatment for mental health disorders including substance use disorder (addiction). A Union First placement is essentially the service that we provide to help you find placement for mental health services such as drug rehab placement.
Union First services for its members are designed to help them with crucial aspects of getting the best in-network mental health care such as addiction treatment while also helping them at work through advocacy and protecting their job while they undergo treatment. Union First placement services are particularly important these days with the sheer number of rehabs and mental healthcare facilities available and the mountains of information that one has to sift through to find the best treatment center.
Our rehab and mental healthcare placement services help to cut out all of the heaps of data that one would normally have to go through to help you find a rehab or treatment center in your area that is within your budget, covered by your insurance, and provides you with the right treatments and therapies to be able to effectively help you to overcome your mental health issues.
The Union First employee assistance program offers more than just mental health treatment and rehab placement services. One of our key services is our job protection services. While you get the help you need through our rehab placement services, Union First will ensure that your job is protected while you receive the treatment based on laws that are there to protect you. Mental health treatment is something that is considered to be one of the fundamental things that people with health insurance plans should have access to and as such, most ACA plans and private insurance plans provide some coverage for mental health treatment and laws are in place to protect the person while they seek to improve themselves and overcome their mental health issues.
Our employee assistance program can help you as a union member to get the best possible mental health treatment and rehab programs in your area. Become a Union First member today to take advantage of these and other important services that we provide to help you overcome your behavioral health issues including drug and alcohol addiction while providing you with job protection.

5 Reasons You Need a Union First Placement
Getting help through our Union First placement services can help you in many important ways that you might otherwise struggle with or not know enough about to make an informed decision. Our employee assistance program provides you with a way to get the behavioral health treatment or addiction treatment program placements that will be ideal for you and your current situation.
The top 5 reasons why you could benefit from our placement services include the following:
Quicker admissions: One of the main advantages of our behavioral health treatment placement services is that we can help you find placement at a rehab or treatment center much faster than if you were to do it alone. You don’t have to spend hours upon hours researching treatment centers to try and align them with your needs, budget, and insurance – Union First will provide you with a case manager that will work closely with you to establish your recovery needs, budget, insurance, and any other aspect that may be unique to you to match it to the best treatment service in your area.
Education: When it comes to mental health disorders such as addiction or any other life-altering mental health disorder, the mountain of information can be daunting. Our placement services will help you to get a better understanding of your mental health disorder and how it needs to be treated so that you better understand the types of therapies and treatments that are needed to overcome the disorder. We help to remove the fears and misunderstandings that might be present with accurate information and break down any barriers to treatment that you may have.
Improved recovery results: Choosing a rehab center, for example, that doesn’t offer long-term recovery plans to help you to overcome a severe addiction can result in poor recovery results and relapse. Our behavioral health treatment placement services are run by a team of professionals that understand what is needed to overcome mental health issues in various situations. We use our expansive knowledge to give you an advantage in recovery by placing you in a program that has all of the components, treatments, and therapies that will be the most effective at helping you to overcome your mental health disorders, resulting in improved recovery results.
Avoid scam rehabilitation centers: There are an increasing number of scams that are being carried out on people in need of addiction treatment and other mental health services. Scammers are taking advantage of people in desperate situations and then leaving them high and dry with no effective treatment and money lost. Our members are more protected from scam rehabs and scam behavioral health treatment facilities. We use only a trusted network of addiction treatment centers and behavioral health treatment facilities so that the chances of being scammed are eliminated.
An ally in your recovery process: With our individual case management, you will receive help from Union First that applies to your situation. We are not only there for you during the important rehab placement services but we will be there with you throughout the entire recovery process. We understand how isolating and fearing the experience of addiction and other mental health disorders can be and just knowing that there are people who are passionate and caring to help you through the recovery journey can be a significant factor in the recovery process.
Our employee assistance program helps people from all walks of life trying to find effective addiction treatment programs or mental healthcare services to find the best possible treatment in their area.
