What We Do
Expert Medical Services for Psychiatric Patients, Brought to Your Facility
Tailored to your needs and working alongside your team, our outsourcing medical providers will deliver medical care following best practice and medical protocols specific to psychiatric patients.
At the core of a Moore Medical Group engagement are our Hospitalist Services, Outsourcing, and Process Improvement Program. However, there is much more to our engagement that has the ability to transform your facility as you will see below.
Hospitalist Services
Hospitalist Services include, but are Not Limited to:
• Timely administering of History & Physicals reducing admissions risk
• Ordering and interpreting tests and labs that get to the root cause
• Development of effective and achievable treatment plans alongside your patient’s care team
• Medication management and coordination with your in-house pharmacy staff improve quality, reduce risk and cost
• Anti-microbial management and infection control surveillance as required by Joint Commission and CARF standards.
Your patient-facing team’s daily interaction with MMG providers will increase their clinical knowledge and expertise and improve confidence in their work, increasing quality of care and giving you greater peace of mind.
Process Improvement
Overlooked or undertreated medical issues in the treatment process of behavioral health patients can cause serious risks that can lead to patient injury, hospitalization or death. MMG professionals, working alongside your team, can assess your patient flow process from intake through discharge looking for all areas that medical conditions may arise or become exacerbated during treatment. We are medical experts specializing in your population and understand the particular needs they face, specifically with their lifestyles, psychotropic medication, drug interactions and social determinants of health. Let us help you improve outcomes both in patient care and financially by evaluating your processes.
Mentoring and Encouragement
Our clients tell us their nursing and behavioral health technicians daily interaction with MMG Providers increases their ability to be more effective through the exposure of hard and soft skills in the treatment of psychiatric patients. These skills and personal encouragement are also seen to reduce stress among staff. Our involvement, coupled with your staff retention efforts, can go a long way in mitigating the high cost of employee turn-over seen at many psychiatric facilities.
Recruitment Services
Finding good providers for your organization is both costly and time-consuming. In house recruitment takes dedicated full-time staff and time from your Medical Director, DON and CEO to interview. HR must advertise and do its best to recruit and run background checks, credential and onboard providers. Many agencies charge tens of thousands of dollars, if not more. MMG offers this service as part of what we do. We supply your organization with providers to specifically meet your needs. Our providers have a passion for behavioral health patients. We believe in mind, body and spirit and we treat each patient with whole person care. Our providers become a part of your team. MMG will do the background screening, onboarding and all other necessary arrangements. Let us help you provide the highest level of medical care for your patients with MMG.
