POSITION OVERVIEW

HUB – Flexible ACT - ACT
Shared Health is implementing wrap- around multi-disciplinary community mental health teams for individuals who have severe mental illness. These teams will be composed of the HUB, FACTT and ACT teams. The teams will work with individuals who have a severe mental illness and may have been in hospital for extended periods of time, in a special contract, use a number of services and require regular supports to assist in community living. Individuals do not require a diagnosis of primary psychosis but may have a mental illness diagnosis, behavioral complexity, co-existing medical conditions, cognitive impairment, addictions, be involved with the criminal justice system and do not meet the criteria for other mental health programs or services.

• data collection, oversight, and analytics.
• consultation and assessment for service strategy planning for client and families.
• the assessment and reassessment of clients for appropriateness for FACTT and ACT.

The Flexible ACT team (FACTT) will service a broader mental health client population.

FACTT will be responsible for:

• case management services in the community.
• has the ability to provide more intensive treatment services for a short period of time when needed by the individual.
