CHU is offering customers a counselling support service
As this unprecedented catastrophe continues to unfold on the East Coast of Australia, the impact on everyone involved in this crisis is plain to see. So many people are under pressure and working to their absolute limits.
It is for this reason that CHU is extending the offer to access a counselling support service to our customers. This service will be completely free of charge for anyone who utilises it. The counselling support service is offered under CHU’s Health and Wellbeing Program called “NurCHUre”. The NurCHUre program also gives access to additional support and resources across 5 key pillars of health and wellbeing: family, life, health, money and work. If you would like to access this service please contact us and we can help with contact details.
Vulnerable Customers and Financial Hardship
If you know of any insured who is particularly vulnerable at this time, financially or otherwise, please let us know. We can expedite payments and provide further assistance to them. In addition to this, we have accelerated the process for getting customers into temporary accommodation through Insurance Claims Rentals. If you require assistance with financial hardship click here.
