What are Medical Services?
Medical Services is a collection of physician and nursing personnel working together to provide quality care for our patients.
What do we do?
In all of our services, we operate as a liaison between patients and their primary care physicians. Each time our patients are seen for medical problems, we screen them, do appropriate lab work, and make medical references when indicated. For substance abuse clients, Dr. Hallman provides "detox" services, helping consumers to break dependency.
Who do we work with?
Medical Services interacts with patients' primary care physicians, referring and medical specialists, and other health and mental health clinics.
How are referrals made to Medical Services?
Internally, referrals to Medical Services are made by a simple phone call or as a result of weekly "disposition" meetings. Externally, direct calls can be made to an agency physician or by referral by the Access or Emergency Services teams.
