We are thrilled to welcome Jason, our new Regional Account Manager for the Patriot Support Program (PSP). Jason and Rob, a seasoned PSP Regional Account Manager, met our Uniformed Personnel Program team on-site to learn more about our facility.

July is #MinorityMentalHealthAwarenessMonth. This month is dedicated to highlighting mental health challenges in seeking mental healthcare for minorities. Minorities often experience racial trauma and discrimination that can severely impact their mental health. Systemic racism, microaggressions, and overt acts of discrimination contribute to chronic stress that can result in anxiety, depression, and PTSD. While we bring awareness to minority mental health in July, every day is a good day to help #breakthestigma of mental health by promoting open dialogue, challenging stereotypes, educating ourselves and others about barriers to seeking mental health care, and exploring our clinical practices to ensure we are creating a healing environment for all. At Windmoor Healthcare, we don't just talk the talk, we walk the walk. Over 40% of our facility leadership positions including C-Suite, Directors, and Supervisors are held by individuals who are a part of one or more minority populations. Representation matters and minority voices and perspectives are valued in our company culture. We believe diversity in leadership is crucial as it allows for a greater depth of experience and perspective, innovation, and a better understanding of our employees and our clients. We are honored to be filled with #RemarkablePeople, providing #RemarkableCare. The proof is in our value of diversity and inclusion. #SourceForBetterHealth #NMMHAM

We were honored to host Tori Silvers, Clinical Outreach Specialist from Newport Healthcare, on-site for a presentation. Tori provided valuable information to our Clinical Services department for our Discharge Planners, Social Workers, Therapists, and Utilization Review team members. Thank you, Tori, for taking the time to share your knowledge and resources with us. We look forward to our continued collaboration.

We understand the benefits of pet therapy and love having Owl be a regular part of our treatment schedule. Dealing with a serious mental health condition can be stressful, and stress can hinder healing. The presence of an animal provides comfort and a needed distraction from an otherwise challenging time. For most people, the presence of an animal prompts the body to release serotonin, prolactin, and oxytocin. These hormones generate a relaxation and stress-reducing response, according to UCLA Health. This hormone release can lower symptoms of depression and sadness, helping support good mental health. Read more about it here: http://spklr.io/6040SzeM. For more information on how we can help you, call 727-513-7290.

From all of us at Windmoor Healthcare, we wish you all a safe and fun-filled 4th of July! As you celebrate and commemorate our freedom, enjoy the holiday and let it inspire you to continue being a valued member of our community and our nation. 🇺🇸
