Integrated Health/ Peer Support Whole Health and Wellness

People with mental and substance abuse disorders may die decades earlier than the average person — mostly from untreated and preventable chronic illnesses like hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease that are aggravated by poor health habits such as inadequate physical activity, poor nutrition, smoking, and substance abuse. Barriers to primary care, coupled with challenges in navigating complex healthcare systems have been major obstacles to care.

 

ACR has implemented a program using Certified Peer Specialists trained in Whole Health Action Management (WHAM) to serve as a wellness coach working with individuals who are facing medical and health challenges. A Registered Nurse, who is also a part of the team, will provide support and will coordinate behavioral healthcare with primary health care and other medical specialists as needed. Integrating mental health, substance abuse, and primary care services has demonstrated that it produces the best recovery outcomes and proves the most effective approach to caring for people with multiple healthcare needs.

 

ACR will provide those services to assist individuals and their families to obtain the necessary services and treatments to live a better quality of life.  We believe that it is our responsibility to assist individuals with disabilities in obtaining the healthcare that they deserve and are entitled to receive. We believe in holistic care.
