Company Overview
Mental Health Resource Center is a not-for-profit Florida corporation that provides a wide range of mental health and behavioral health care services to the community such as 24-hour emergency services, inpatient psychiatric services for children, adolescents, and adults as well as outpatient services such as medication management, case management, and counseling.
Job Summary
The TBM Program is a new specialty care pilot program designed for individuals who are experiencing difficulties in their daily lives as a result of psychiatric instability. Routinely, individuals diagnosed with a serious mental illness experience significant challenges navigating through the multi-layered service delivery system. The program's approach to providing care is recovery focused and promotes member empowerment. The guiding principles include member choice, cultural competence, person-centered planning, rights of members served, collaboration among all practitioners involved in the member's care, and voice.
Some of the responsibilities of the TBM program include providing clinical and supportive services through advocacy, treatment planning, case management and care coordination. Participants are also provided with community referrals, symptom education, work-related vocational and educational services, social and interpersonal relationship training, and support for the participants' families and care givers. Most of a TBM staff member's day is spent in the community completing many of the above duties. Only about 15% of their time is spent in the office. When company vehicles are unavailable, members of the TBM program may need to use their personal vehicles to provide services and are eligible for reimbursement for mileage.
The TBM program operates 7 days a week with overlapping shifts, operating at minimum of twelve hours per day on weekdays and eight hours each weekend day and holiday.
