Wasatch Behavioral Health’s Post

A year and a half has passed since CalAIM began rolling out across California. While CalAIM encompasses various facets of health and social care, its approach to addressing behavioral health is particularly noteworthy. In this blog, we will explore the proactive measures California is taking to enhance the behavioral health landscape and examine how they are impacting consumers. https://ow.ly/yYxz50Q3FZi #CalAIM #BehavioralHealth #CommunitySupports #CareManagement #CareCoordination #ValueBasedPayments #VBP #XtraGlobex #VBPblog #Onward

CCBHCs are a promising new approach to providing behavioral health care. The model is based on systems theory and is designed to improve the functioning of the community system by improving the coordination of care, increasing access to services, and improving the quality of care. #communityhealth #accesstocare #evidencebasedpractice ##integratedcare

Connecticut has a continuum of acute behavioral health services for youth that is consistent with national best practices, but they are at risk to fail until we put into place a sustainable funding approach. A small wireless surcharge -- which is how most states fund 911 -- would generate millions annually to fund these life-saving services for youth. That is already happening in California, Colorado, Delaware, Minnesota, Nevada, Oregon, Virginia, and Washington (and proposals are being considered in six additional states!). Check out my latest Policy Brief, co-authored with Gary Steck from Wellmore Behavioral Health, to learn more about this option, and a pathway to make it happen! https://lnkd.in/e55sEg2J

Join Primary Therapists Bob Hennen and Justin Messinger, LPC for their presentation next Thursday at the Regional Wilderness Therapy Symposium! "Milieu focused treatment settings often center upon the concept of community and group-based therapeutic engagement. Belonging to a community of others with shared experience is believed to enrich a person’s sense of connection. What happens when an individual connects differently? Providing clinical care for autistic individuals in a treatment setting requires professionals to consider 1) the unique differences of the individual and 2) how individual differences may impact the therapeutic benefit of group-centered approaches. Recent studies suggest that up to 36% of autistic individuals may have co-occurring issues with substance use. Many commonly utilized interventions for substance use disorder may be unsuitable for autistic individuals and research on this topic is limited. There is a need to explore ways in which an individual’s differences may impact engagement and responsiveness to common approaches in SUD treatment." We’re excited to see you there. Reach out to Dana Williams or send us a PM to connect or schedule a meeting! #outdoorbehavioralhealthcare #wildernesstherapy #naturebasedsolutions #autismsupport #substanceusedisorders #youthprograms #mentalhealth
