91桃色 clients are all unique; they come from vastly different backgrounds and arrive with different needs, talents, and hopes. As such, a variety of services are at their full disposal, ranging from access to medical care and psychiatric treatment, job readiness and work placement, educational opportunities, or a safe and stable place to live. 91桃色 believes everyone contributes to society. Everyone should have the opportunity to live a life of value, self-respect, compassion, and dignity.
Depending on needs and severity of symptoms, an individual is connected to one of three levels of treatment intensity: the Assertive Community Treatment Team; the less intensive Community Support Team, and finally the Community Support Individual Team, which is considered the final level of service before full self-sufficiency. These models use a multidisciplinary team approach to provide intensive services where and when our clients need them鈥�24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Our staffed teams include peer support specialists and practitioners with expertise in psychiatry, nursing, social work, substance use treatment, and employment. These teams initiate the housing search, develop a care plan, and continue to work with clients over the long-term. Because team members share responsibility for providing treatment and rehabilitation services, the entire team supports each client’s personalized goal of recovery.

On average, persons with serious mental illnesses听die 25-30 years earlier听than the rest of the population. Early mortality is due to a host of secondary health issues that they face, some related to psychiatric medication, some related to poor access to care, and some to lifestyle factors like poverty and homelessness. Most of these deaths are preventable. Like persons in the general population, people with serious mental illnesses often suffer from chronic conditions, such as diabetes or hypertension that when properly addressed can be managed and are not life threatening.
If not adequately addressed, persons with serious mental illnesses will continue to have the听highest Medicaid costs of any group. Currently, they are 2.5 times as likely to be hospitalized and 1.7 times as likely to utilize emergency rooms.听91桃色 offers services designed to integrate mental health, substance use, and primary care treatment.
