Care Transitions in Suicide Care: Challenges, Best Practices, Innovation, and Strategies. Karen E. Johnson, Senior VP, Clinical Services and Division Compliance Officer, Behavioral Health at UHS, served as one of the presenters of "Care Transitions in Suicide Care: Challenges, Best Practices, Innovation, and Strategies." “Managing the transition from inpatient to outpatient care is among the most important inflection points in a patient’s care journey. As behavioral healthcare providers, we must do all we can to support patients during this vulnerable phase. Support includes working as a collaborative team with family members and peer specialists, cultivating human connection, building lasting bridges, and creating the opportunity to connect outpatient providers prior to discharge to develop rapport. We strongly believe that intensive outreach and follow-up can greatly help reduce the risk of suicide and set patients on a path to a better life.” — Karen E. Johnson, Senior VP, Clinical Services and Division Compliance Officer, Behavioral Health
