WHAT WE DO

UPHP serves to promote the health and well being of licensed healthcare professionals through coordination of assessment, treatment placement, and long term aftercare monitoring.

Healthcare professionals have drug and alcohol problems just like other people do.

Sadly, many professionals don't know where to seek help, or that if we ask for help, our careers will be ruined. If this sounds familiar to you, or to someone you love, please watch this brief video. You will see that you are not alone and that there is hope.
