How to accomplish practice change in behavioral healthcare in less than one year
1Adult Network, Pikes Peak Mental Health, Colorado Springs, USA.
Abstract:
This is a challenging time in the field of public mental health. State and federal funding for public behavioral healthcare is declining in a time when the demand for services is increasing. Philosophical changes in mental healthcare service delivery, underscored by the tenets from the President's New Freedom Commission on Mental Health, are creating additional challenges for practitioners. The Adult Network of Pikes Peak Mental Health (PPMH) has developed a model for providing behavioral healthcare that meets these challenges while providing greater access to care, holistic care delivered in natural settings and, at the same time, maintaining the quality clinical outcomes at reduced costs.
