At Prestige Healthcare Resources, we are committed to providing quality care for our clients. Our Integrated Care Model allows us to offer coordinated healthcare that helps improve our client’s quality of life by focusing on three specific areas: behavioral health, physical health, and social determinants. Our compassionate providers work together to ensure that each individual receives the best possible treatment. In this article, we’ll explain more about our Integrated Care Model and what you can expect as a client at Prestige Healthcare Resources.

What is Integrated Care?

Integrated Care is a model of healthcare we practice at Prestige Healthcare Resources that focuses on improving a person’s quality of life by focusing on three key areas:

1. Behavioral health
2. Physical health
3. Social determinants

By treating the whole person, Prestige Healthcare Resources can provide a more holistic approach to care. This model of care is likely to change the way healthcare is delivered in the future, as it allows for a more effective and efficient way to meet the needs of patients.

Behavioral Health

Behavioral health is essential to overall well-being. Good behavioral health allows people to manage everyday stressors, relate to others positively, and make choices that support physical and emotional health. That’s why we focus on Behavioral Health through our Integrated Care model with community support programs, recovery programs, medication/somatic, and outpatient therapy. 

By taking a comprehensive approach to behavioral health, we can help people live happier, healthier lives. If you or someone you know is struggling, we encourage you to reach out for help. Our caring staff is here to provide the support you need to achieve lasting recovery.

Physical Health

Another component of our Integrated Care Model is physical health. This encompasses health promotion, immunization, medication management, and

health & wellness education. Health promotion helps our clients maintain a healthy lifestyle, while immunization protects them from potentially deadly diseases. Medication management ensures that our patients take the correct medications at the proper dosages. Health and wellness education provides clients with the knowledge to make informed decisions about their health. By focusing on physical health through our Integrated Care Model, we can provide our patients with the best possible care.

Social Determinants

 The final piece of our Integrated Care Model focuses on social determinants such as community engagement, workforce development, environmental housing, and nutrition. Community engagement is essential for developing trusting relationships and building collective power to solve problems. Workforce development ensures that we have a skilled and diverse workforce to meet the needs of our communities. Environmental housing addresses the health impacts of substandard housing and creates safe and healthy homes for all. And finally, nutrition is key to preventing chronic disease and promoting health and well-being. Our Integrated Care Model ensures that we address all of these social determinants to achieve population health equity.

The Benefits of Integrated Care

Integrated care is proving to be a successful approach to healthcare delivery, as it improves the quality of life for patients and reduces overall costs. By combining mental and physical health services along with social determinants, Prestige Healthcare Resources can provide more comprehensive care for our clients all in one place, which is more convenient and efficient. 

Here are some other key components of our Integrated Care Model:

• A multidisciplinary team of providers who work together to coordinate care
• Focus on whole-person care rather than just treating symptoms
• An emphasis on preventive care and health promotion
• A client-centered approach that includes involving the person in their care
• The use of data and technology to improve care quality and efficiency
