Massey Grant Used to Buy New Equipment for Staff

Mar 3, 2015

Chartiers’ Service Coordination staff received their new tablets made possible through a grant from the Massey Charitable Trust. It was like Christmas watching the staff open their tablets and familiarize themselves with all the special features. Comments that were heard after the meeting included: “Wow, this is significantly faster!” “This is so light I can pick it up with one hand.” Due to their working in the community, staff truly value equipment that supports a faster solution.  One staff person commented on how fast it was to upload a site and how quick the system responds. She felt it would easily cut the time she spends recording her case notes by one third.
All the SCU staff was appreciative of the support from the Massey Charitable Trust. Many, many thanks!

What Is Mobile Psychiatric Rehabilitation?

Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services are founded on the firm belief that people can and do recover from mental illness, including the most severe and persistent diagnoses. Psych Rehab providers define recovery not by a lack of symptoms, but by the presence of meaning and purpose in one’s life. Participants in Chartiers Center’s Mobile Psych Rehab (MPR) program choose the recovery goals they want to work on and then meet regularly with their MPR staff to learn, enhance, and practice the skills they need to reach those goals.

Healing Invisible Wounds

For many Veterans, the battle doesn’t end when they return home. The experiences of deployment, combat exposure, loss, and the transition back to civilian life can take a profound toll on mental well-being. While every Veteran’s story is unique, the mental-health challenges they face often share common threads: post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, substance use, and a lingering sense of isolation. The good news is that effective, compassionate treatment options exist—and awareness and accessibility have grown dramatically over the past decade.
