Chronic disease/illness management

A structured approach aimed at enhancing healthcare for individuals with chronic diseases. The core elements of most CDM approaches include patient self-management, physician education, and organizational support. A range of strategies are used at Good Samaritan Hospital, including case management, continuous quality improvement, disease management (DM), and the chronic care model (CCM).

Family psychoeducation

Refers to Good Samaritan Hospital aiming to assist consumers, their families and supporters in understanding mental illness, developing effective coping strategies, reducing family tension, providing social support, focusing on the future, and finding ways to aid in recovery through relationship building, education, collaboration, and problem-solving. This includes learning about mental illness, mastering new methods of managing it, and offering encouragement to one another.

Intensive case management

Intensive Case Management (ICM) is an essential service in the mental health care continuum for individuals with severe mental illness. It involves building a caring and trustworthy relationship with the consumer, promoting their independence by coordinating appropriate services and providing ongoing, long-term support. ICM evolved from Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) and Case Management (CM) and emphasizes frequent contact, small caseloads, and high-intensity care to improve the consumer's quality of life. The case manager coordinates services from multiple systems as the consumer's needs change, working to help them achieve their recovery goals and stabilize their lives. Intensive case management is critical in providing the support and resources that consumers need to improve their quality of life.

Illness management and recovery

Involves a standardized individual or group approach at Good Samaritan Hospital that incorporates five evidence-based practices, including psychoeducation, behavioral tailoring, relapse prevention training, coping skills training, and social skills training.

Case management service

A service that provides assistance to individuals and families in coordinating necessary support and resources through a designated case manager. The case manager assesses the needs of clients and their families and arranges for various services such as mental health care, social work, healthcare, education, employment training, recreational activities, transportation, advocacy, and respite care as needed.

Integrated primary care services

Offers comprehensive healthcare services to individuals struggling with mental health and substance abuse issues. The services aim to address chronic health conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease, which can be exacerbated by unhealthy habits such as lack of physical activity, poor nutrition, and smoking. The program includes screening, coordination between behavioral and medical healthcare providers, and connecting patients to resources to support overall well-being and positive outcomes.

Suicide prevention services

Involve identifying potential warning signs; educating staff on recognizing signs of suicidal behavior and evaluating risk; and managing patients who are at risk of suicide by providing appropriate interventions, such as treating underlying mental health or substance use disorders, administering psychotropic medications, offering supportive services, and providing education. Hotlines also allow individuals to reach the closest suicide prevention mental health provider in San Jose for assistance.

Haloperidol

More effective at treating positive symptoms of schizophrenia, such as hallucinations and delusions, but may also have a higher risk of causing adverse effects, Haloperidol is considered a high-potency antipsychotic drug used to treat psychotic disorders. Haloperidol is typically prescribed at a lower dose than Fluphenazine due to its higher potency.

Olanzapine

Olanzapine, an atypical antipsychotic, is primarily prescribed for the treatment of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. It can be used for both long-term maintenance and new-onset disease in schizophrenia, and can be administered orally or via intramuscular injection.

Olanzapine/Fluoxetine combination

Olanzapine/Fluoxetine combination is a medication that is prescribed for the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar I disorder, as well as treatment-resistant depression in adults. It is a combination of two active ingredients, olanzapine and fluoxetine, that work by modulating the activity of neurotransmitters in the brain. This medication is typically used when other antidepressant medications have been found to be ineffective.

Quetiapine

An atypical antipsychotics used to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder by reducing the symptoms of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder, such as hallucinations, delusions, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. Aunique aspect of Quetiapine is that it has been associated with a relatively lower risk of extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) compared to some other antipsychotics. EPS are a set of movement disorders that can occur with the use of antipsychotic medications, and can include symptoms such as tremors, muscle stiffness, and involuntary movements. While Quetiapine may still cause EPS in some individuals, it is generally considered to have a lower risk of these symptoms compared to other antipsychotics.

Risperidone

Risperidone also an atypical antipsychotics thats used in the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and irritability associated with autism, may differ from similar medications in its class because its able to be administered via a long-acting injection that is given every two weeks. This can be particularly helpful for individuals who have difficulty adhering to a medication regimen, as it ensures that the medication is consistently delivered to the body.

Nicotine replacement

A form of treatment that delivers nicotine to the body through alternative means, excluding tobacco, and without the presence of harmful chemicals. Nicotine replacement therapy usually takes the form of nicotine patches, gum or lozenges, nasal spray, or inhaler, aimed at curbing cravings and helping a person quit tobacco use.

Antipsychotics used in treatment of SMI

A multi-disciplinary clinical team approach helps individuals with serious mental illness to live in the community by offering 24-hour intensive services within their natural surroundings.
