OhioGuidestone’s Therapeutic Phone Tool minimizes disruption to care and risk of community spread
BEREA, OH, March 25, 2020 – A Renewed Mind’s parent company, OhioGuidestone, today announced it is offering a newly developed tool, at no cost, to help all behavioral health providers care for their clients in response to the current coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis, mitigating potential exposure to the disease without sacrificing critical access to care.
As one of the Buckeye state’s largest behavioral health providers, OhioGuidestone is committed to using its Therapeutic Phone Tool to serve the needs of those coping with mental health and substance use disorders, regardless of restrictions facing healthcare providers during the COVID-19 pandemic. With Ohio’s new emergency rule, expanding the types of behavioral health services allowed through telehealth, the agency has developed this resource to assist providers in adapting to the new conditions.

I recently attended a conference in Columbus with multiple behavioral healthcare providers from across Ohio. During the initial Keynote Address, Director Lori Criss from the Ohio Department of Mental health and Addiction clearly outlined Governor DeWine’s plan to address mental health and addiction for Ohioans. Of particular concern was the growing numbers of Suicide in Ohio, especially among youth. While I had experienced some of this disturbing trend in parts of northwest Ohio, the National picture was less clear.
