The Landscape of Behavioral Healthcare in Northeast Ohio 7.15.2022
Families and medical professionals have long understood the importance of continuity in behavioral healthcare. Too often, treatment of mental illness, substance abuse, and other harmful addictive behaviors is handled by separate providers and relying on hospitalization or law enforcement during times of crisis. In his State of the State address this spring, Governor DeWine identified improvements including school programs and Medicaid reform but, while noting “it still is not enough,” called for increased services and treatment. A panel explains solutions.
