Ingram Haley and Carmen Leschuk, both VP’s of Business Development, are representing Diamond at the Post Acute 360 Strategy and Solutions Conference at the Gaylord National Resort in Maryland on June 25 - 27, 2018.
The demand for behavioral health services across the country is strong, and the business climate is primed for investment. Increased awareness of the need for mental health and addiction treatment facilities, coupled with improved reimbursement for such services, present an attractive investment opportunity with the right management partner.
Diamond congratulates Deena Tampi, MSN, MBA-HCA, RN, Executive Vice President Clinical Services, on the publication of her first book.
Psychiatric Disorders Late in Life
On Thursday, March 22, 2018, the Behavioral Emergency Response Team (BERT) received the Program Excellence Award from Medstar Washington Hospital Center and the Board of Directors as recognition for the success of the BERT Program. The BERT Team is comprised of Registered Nurses, Social Workers and Mental Health Technician to respond in a supportive manner to all areas of the hospital for patients who are showing signs of psychiatric crisis or acute behavioral health symptoms.
Social Workers: Leaders. Advocates. Champions. It's Social Work month and Diamond is thankful and appreciative of the important contributions social workers make in our programs and for the patients and families we serve.
