OLder Adults
The Behavioral Health Assisted Living Program is a new pilot program designed to provide wrap-around behavioral health services and care coordination to older adults with behavioral health conditions who require Assisted Living services. These individuals require assistance with daily activities or have medical conditions that require nursing assessment and delegation and have a mental illness and/or substance use disorder for which they will also need to access services and supports. An assisted living service with behavioral health wraparound services is needed to support this population and prevent unnecessary institutionalization.
