Integrated Mental Health
Caring for the Whole Person John F. Andrews Family
Care Center mental health care providers collaborate with primary care practitioners to treat the whole patient, using a
supportive, team-centered approach.
Studies have shown that integrated mental health care systems can better identify
those who need mental health care.
Because integrated mental health care helps build strong relationships with
continuous family and patient contact, it also helps patients remain engaged with treatment plans.
Other benefits include improved productivity at work and school and improved
patient satisfaction. Patients receive more comprehensive, continuous and convenient care and they feel less stigmatized
because mental health care services are provided in a primary care setting as care for the whole patient.
