Integrated Health Services

Integrated Health Services provides integrated primary and behavioral healthcare services by an integrated team in partnership with Covenant Community Care. The team addresses multiple chronic healthcare conditions at the same time, some of which are psychiatric and some of which are medical care needs.

Services

In partnership with Covenant Community Care, the Integrated Health Services program is offered at both our Waterman Outpatient Clinic and 5716 Wellness. Referrals to the program happen both ways: Our mental health staff refer individuals with medical needs to Covenant; and Covenant refers patients with mental health needs to our counselors.

The goals of Integrated Health Services are:

To provide a holistic approach to the health needs of mental health consumers by working with medical doctors

To identify and treat or refer previously undiagnosed patients presenting with mental illness

To provide solution-focused treatment to help with stress, panic attacks, headaches, smoking, palpitation, and sleep issues

To integrate the cognitive approach to chronic disease management at the same time with the medical appointment

To link healthcare consumers with community resources to help them deal with the situations, like unemployment, foreclosure, lack of food, and other problems
