I have had the opportunity to collaborate with some of the nations leading and most trusted providers. One of the great things about our field is, programs develop their own culture and healing atmosphere. While each program is somewhat unique, there are specific elements successful programs posses. This is an overview of services I offer, focused on creating or revitalizing a clinical program or team.
Clinical Development- Whether you have an intact program, a team that just needs some fresh material, or you need to build a clinical team and program from scratch, I can help. As a counselor and interventionist, I am also able to help clinicians identify ways to improve retention, manage resistance and improve outcomes.
Outcomes- I believe outcomes will quickly become one of the defining factors to a programs longevity. Creating outcomes is a complex and difficult process. I can help identify what information to track, how to organize it and how to utilize it for your benefit.
Documentation Training- Documentation can make the difference between a patient being approved or denied time in treatment. I can help clinicians identify key components of utilization reviews.
Policies & Procedures- Each state and accreditation agency require specifically tailored policies and procedures. I can assist in development of these vital documents, specifically designed for your facility and staff.
Clinical Key Hires- Identifying key talent is an ongoing process for any growing healthcare provider. Identifying A.) Who you need and B.) Where to find them can be time consuming. Given my years in the addiction treatment field, I have access to potential key hires, that many do not. Whether you need a clinical director, counselor or techs, I can assist in identifying, interviewing and hiring.
Staff Training- I can educate clinical teams on a variety of topics and assist in the development of group exercises, lectures and educational material.
Treatment Manual Development- I believe that a treatment manual, fosters consistency within an agency. While many clinicians have their own styles, it helps to have a general framework to ensure success.
