Episode notes

This week on the "Nobody’s Perfect” podcast, we dive into the world of Acute Care in Mental Health with our special guest, Licensed Professional Counselor, Sarah Salky.

Sarah, a leader in Acute Care Settings in Colorado, sheds light on the intricacies of crisis intervention and trauma treatment. She brings a unique perspective to our conversation. Together, we explore the nuances of Acute Care, its limitations, and what individuals and families can expect during those time where additonal support is needed.

We address critical topics, including the integration of medication management, advice for families supporting loved ones in various levels of care, and insights into the ever-evolving landscape of youth mental health treatment.

Discover what sets individuals up for success in higher levels of care and gain valuable advice for both youth experiencing mental health crises and their concerned parents or loved ones. Sarah shares her wealth of clinical experience and observations of changes in youth mental health treatment over the years.

Together, we are dismantling stigma and finding solutions for mental health challenges. Be part of the "Nobody’s Perfect" community, where perfection isn’t real, but your story is. Follow us @NobodysPerfectCommunity on social media.
