CCBHC EXPANSION - PROJECT ABSTRACT SUMMARY Over the two years of this pilot expansion, BSCS will offer CCBHC services to 900 Massachusetts residents residing in the Greater South Shore Area who are in need of behavioral health services. BSCS will provide screenings; assessments; diagnosis and risk assessments; patient centered treatment planning; outpatient clinic primary care screenings and monitoring of key indicators; outpatient mental health and substance use disorders counseling; targeted case management; psychiatric rehabilitation services; peer and family support; and intensive community based supports for members of the armed forces, veterans and their families. Additionally, with a Designated Collaborating Organization (DCO), Aspire Health Alliance, we will offer 24/7 crisis mental health services including 24-hour mobile teams. Four major goals of this initiative are to: 1) Increase the availability of, and access to, mental health and substance use treatment services in the Greater South Shore Area by 50% by providing rapid access response to individuals with behavioral health and co-occurring substance use service requests; 2) Utilize a minimum of 3 appropriate EBPs in 80% of all substance use and behavioral health services to effectively address the symptomology of individuals with behavioral health and substance use needs; 3) Increase access to comprehensive mental health and substance use services by at least 50% to members of the armed services, veterans, and their families in order to support the treatment needs of this specific demographic in the Greater South Shore Area and 4) Decrease the complexity of navigating treatment options.
