Four things that are true about:
Collaboration results in the best outcomes
The best health care outcomes are the result of a partnership between the health care provider and the patient.
Any mental disorder is an opportunity
Some mental disorders are temporary, many are episodic and others can last a lifetime. A mental disorder should not define who one is or who one becomes. Professional assistance can offer empowerment to patients to seek a full and meaningful life.
Problems never belong to one person
Anyone in a family, or other close relationship with an individual with any illness becomes affected by the illness in some ways, emotionally or behvaiorally.
Solutions are unique to each individual and family
Each person and family is unqiue in a special way. Since any one method does not fit every person or problem, collaboration helps to achieve better outcomes by enlisting uniqueness.
