Transitional Care
Overview
Oliver Winston Behavioral Urgent Care offers transitional care services for patients seeking non-emergent care for
their mental health. These services are designed to provide short-term care for those who need assistance with
managing their mental health needs while transitioning back into their communities. These services can include
crisis management, medication management, and therapeutic support.
What is Transitional Care?
Transitional care involves continuity of care in the transition from one provider or health care setting to another.
Some examples include:
- Recent discharge from inpatient hospitalization
- Unable to get appointment with current provider
- Recently moved to the area and looking for a new provider
- Need medication refills and are between providers
- Your family doctor wants you to see a specialist but can continue medications
Crisis Assessment
During a crisis assessment, we gather detailed information from patients suffering a present mental health
emergency.
Medication Management
Medication management involves providing refills between visits, and assessing the situation to determine appropriate levels of medication needed to stabilize mental health.
Therapeutic Support
Our crisis therapy services help you develop effective coping skills, regain emotional stability, and deal with a
current crisis.
