Share the Care!


When a youth is under the care of a care manager here at Bergen's Promise, bringing up the joint care with BHH (Behavioral Health Home) could be a difficult subject to discuss with the family. If a care manager believes their youth could benefit from this treatment, they could easily refer them to BHH. By creating these referral "cards", the process of referring a child to BHH services becomes even more simple. It allows those BHH members to easily have the Cyber ID of the child, which they could look up in the database "Cyber" that the company uses for confidentiality. By not writing the child's name directly on the card, only those members who have access to "Cyber" would know who the youth actually is. It ensures the confidentiality and makes sure their personal information isn't available to the wrong people. And in case of any questions the BHH team has about a specific youth, they have access to the care manager who is responsible for the referred child. These cards allow for an easier method for care managers to refer a youth to BHH, while also allowing BHH to stay organized and have all the information necessary.
