Frontier Behavioral Health’s presence in Spokane is more than 100 years strong, allowing our non-profit organization to understand the varied needs of our clients and the larger community. Our programs are designed to provide evidence-based treatment to adults, youth and seniors who are dealing with a wide range of behavioral health issues. As a Trauma-Informed Care Organization, we firmly believe in recovery and that our clients can lead fulfilling and meaningful lives, and we consider it an honor and a privilege to assist then in their journey. PACT is an intensive and highly integrated approach for community mental health service delivery. Many individuals also experience substance abuse, victimization and trauma, psychiatric hospitalizations, arrests and incarceration, homelessness, and additional significant challenges. The symptoms and complications of mental illnesses lead to serious functioning difficulties in several areas of life, often including work, social relationships, residential independence, money management, and physical health and wellness. In collaboration with a psychiatric care provider, the team nurses assist with medication management and administration, through documentation as well as monitoring clients for medical problems or side effects. Nurses will communicate and coordinate services with other medical providers, engage in health promotion, prevention, and educational activities. The nurse will educate other team members to help them monitor psychiatric symptoms and medication side effect and work with clients to develop strategies to maximize the taking of medications as prescribed. *This includes consultation with Psychiatrist, MHCP, hospital, community providers, client, and client’s family/guardian for care.
