Encore collaborates with a wide range of professionals around the country in order to accept new patients, refer clients to appropriate care, and to appropriately coordinate ongoing care services.
With permission from the patient, the Encore team regularly interacts with other members of the patient’s healthcare team, legal counsel, employee assistance representatives, education consultants, and other specialists. Effective and accurate communication ensures that patients receive quality care. Connecting patients to effective medical treatment, higher levels of care, and supportive resources is crucial to improving mental and physical health and builds bridges to high-quality ongoing care.
Encore also maintains relationships with other addiction treatment and mental health programs so that patients can be referred to other providers if those providers would better meet patient’s needs. Working closely with high-quality providers throughout the treatment field also facilitates learning and the sharing of best practices and resources.
