Partners Making a Difference

Aroostook Mental Health Services, Inc.

Challenge

Over 40% of people with anxiety, depression and other mental health issues turn to their primary care provider for help, yet many doctors and nurses lack the training, tools and support from specialists to diagnose and treat common mental health problems.

Solution

At Aroostook Mental Health Services, doctors and nurses are now working side-by-side with mental health specialists to provide coordinated, patient-centered mental and physical health services for patients when they seek care in primary care offices and clinics.
