Collaborative Care Model

The Collaborative Care Model is a healthcare approach that brings together a team of healthcare professionals to support patients with complex needs, particularly in mental health. In this model, primary care providers work alongside mental health specialists, care coordinators, and sometimes social workers to create a comprehensive treatment plan. This teamwork ensures that patients receive the right care at the right time, empowering them and addressing both physical and mental health. The goal is to improve overall health outcomes, enhance patient experiences, and make care more accessible and effective.
