Project Description
Mental Health
Mental health disorders cover a gamut of diagnoses and affect the patient and their families in ways that cross the landscape of life quality. In a given year, 43.8 million adults will experience some type of mental illness and 1 in 5 American adults will experience a mental illness condition within their lifetime.
The need for attention to these crippling conditions is demonstrated in the research that shows almost 60% of adults with a mental illness did not receive any kind of assistance in the previous year.
AHCS takes an innovative approach to address the need through communication with health care providers and our support service/patient advocate liaisons to ensure that patients maintain individualized attention in their medication regiments and arrive at designated appointments.
An elevated level of attention is required for these debilitating disorders, often requiring varied medication therapies that are adjusted due to symptoms, reactions, and viability. Our staff works with the patient and primary care give to address medication treatment, from long acting injectables to daily tablets.
