Today We Celebrate Our Employees and Chartiers 50 Years of Service

Sep 21, 2018

50 cookie
Today is a big day at Chartiers as we recognize our staff and celebrate 50 years of service for Chartiers Center. Helping us celebrate our  milestone is Representative Dan Miller who sent us a warm letter of congratulations and Sue Means, Allegheny County Office of County Council who presented Chartiers with a Certificate of Recognition. 
Today we combine our extra special Employee Appreciation celebration with Chartiers Centers birthday party! We balloonshave had fun with the 50 days of raffle prizes and of course Katherine’s poems announcing the winners. We have celebrated by guessing the number of purple and green M&M’s in a jar. And with today’s GRAND FINALE  all employees were recognized with a special “50th” cookie and a gift of appreciation.
Sue Coyle, Chartiers Center’s CEO sent the following message to all employees, “2018 is a special year for Chartiers Center as we celebrate 50 years of serving the needs of our neighbors.  You all amaze me every day in so many ways.  I see how you talk to clients;  little things you do for them;  patiently sit and coach while they try to master a task that lasts forever;  supporting them in their confusion and sometimes frustration.  I also see those not in clinical roles who recognize that the more they can do, the more time our caregivers can do with the clients.  Your  efforts are not unnoticed or unappreciated.  To us you are Super Heroes.  In your honor, on behalf of the Executive Team and the Board of Directors, we celebrate today with tokens of appreciation.”

What Is Mobile Psychiatric Rehabilitation?

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.
