Coastal Behavioral Healthcare like the rest of the world, is very concerned by the threat that COVID-19 presents to those we serve. This pandemic has presented new challenges for all of us during this unprecedented time and we know that those in our community will need our help now more than ever. The health and well-being of our clients, staff and the community we serve is our main priority.
We have implemented a COVID-19 Command Team. This team meets daily and monitors all departments and locations to assure the safe management and continuation of services as we continue to follow guidance from the CDC and local Department of Health.
Our system wide strategy includes using the COVID-19 symptom check list, triaging every call we receive, checking in with existing clients, through telehealth or phone and our youth programs are now working with families and children through telehealth.
All our programs are operational. In a matter of days we increased our telehealth capability to 42 therapists/counselors/ prescribers to assure the provision of ongoing services.
The dedication of our staff is a ray of hope for our community, in these most trying times with changing challenges and demands, we continue to serve the most vulnerable who need our caring and compassion. That is why WE NEED YOUR HELP...
