OUR NEXT WEBINAR
Community Inclusion is a Medical Necessity
August 13, 2024 | 1 - 2PM EST / 10 - 11AM PST
Mark Salzer, PhD
Professor, Temple University, Philadelphia PA
Although VHA field staff have made tremendous strides in recovery transformation more work is necessary to provide the information needed to implement the 14 Recovery Domains across both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. Provision of recovery-oriented care is a suicide prevention strategy and is consistent with the Whole Health model of care. This webinar will discuss community inclusion in terms of the opportunities that people with serious mental illnesses have to participate in the community like everyone else, including work, school, dating, parenting, engagement in faith communities, leisure and recreation, volunteering, friendships, etc. Evidence indicating that inclusion is critical for physical, cognitive, and mental health and wellness of veterans with SMI (Serious Mental Illness) will then be presented.
