Description

Skyland Trail is a nonprofit primary psychiatric residential treatment program for adults and adolescents. The adult residential treatment program located in Brookhaven/Atlanta, GA, treats adults ages 18+ with a mood, anxiety, or thought disorder.

Staff psychiatrists for the adult psychiatric residential treatment program serve as the healthcare team leader for one or more diagnosis-specific treatment tracks (i.e. CBT, DBT, cognition and first episode psychosis, social integration, and dual diagnosis). Staff psychiatrists collaborate with a multidisciplinary team that includes mental health therapists, expressive therapy coordinators, nutritionists, vocational counselors, nurses, and residential staff. Staff psychiatrists lead treatment planning and guide evidence-based, measurement-driven care.

Staff psychiatrists serve as the primary psychiatrist for a caseload of adult patients enrolled in residential treatment, day treatment (PHP), and intensive outpatient (IOP) programs, providing medication management and psychotherapy. Residential and day treatment patients are seen weekly, and IOP patients are seen biweekly.

Staff psychiatrists are responsible for timely documentation of orders and session notes and for communicating changes in the treatment plan to the treatment team. Psychiatrists also are available for periodic consultation with patient families.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Skyland Trail adult treatment program treats adults ages 18 and older with a primary mood, thought, or anxiety disorder. A typical length of stay for adults at the residential level of care is about 8 weeks. Most clients continue treatment at the day treatment or intensive outpatient level of care. Though struggling with their mental illness, Skyland Trail patients have entered treatment voluntarily, and clients and their families are engaged in their treatment program.

Skyland Trail campuses include gardens, private patient rooms, and common rooms that provide a therapeutic, healing environment for our clients and families. Clients participate in individual and group psychotherapy as well as expressive therapies, vocational services, nutrition counseling, and fitness activities.

A key philosophy at Skyland Trail is that we expect our clients to get better. We help our clients identify their own goals for their future, and we help them develop the skills needed to pursue those goals in healthy and effective ways.

The Skyland Trail adult treatment program is an evidence-based treatment program that has earned The Joint Commission gold seal of approval since 1995.

DUTIES
  • Complete 30-minute weekly sessions with a caseload of adult patients including psychotherapy and medication management
  • Document assessments and clinical judgement processes in the electronic health record and share changes to the treatment plan or other pertinent information with the treatment team in a timely manner
  • Serve as the leaders and chief medical decision-maker for a multidisciplinary treatment team
  • Exercise prudent judgment in assessing the acuity of illness and severity of symptoms and disability to make sound clinical decisions for level of care and emergency management as appropriate
  • Integrate physical lifestyle recommendations into holistic treatment planning, including healthy eating, active living, tobacco cessation, weight management interventions and other preventive medical suggestions
  • Clearly and effectively communicate clinical recommendations and treatment plans with appropriate staff and stakeholders, including managed care organization representatives to advocate for patients healthcare rights and coverage
  • Share on-call responsibilities (phone call) for after-hours emergencies approximately one week out of eight, depending on current staffing. No in-person assessments required while on call.
  • Serve as a member of the Skyland Trail Professional Advisory Board and as a representative and advocate of Skyland Trail, its patients, and its organizational interests in the community at large.
  • Contribute to organizational Performance Improvement (Quality Improvement) efforts, program development, and strategic planning, as required.
