As many look forward to the holiday season, we want to provide a friendly reminder that prioritizing and supporting physical and emotional wellness should not take a backseat to your holiday plans. The holiday season can often bring up complex feelings - which is common for many people! Last year, SAMHSA offered some great background around and suggestions for how to create a plan for prioritizing your mental health during the holidays. Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/eEDRctXH For supervisors and managers, consider how to best support psychological safety and prioritize mental well-being for your staff members. Providing access to mental health resources like EAPs and offering dedicated time for self-care can all help reduce these pressures and create a healthier work environment, among other ideas that your organizations may have. At the end of the day, supporting your own mental health and the mental health of your family, friends and colleagues isn't just the right thing to do—it's essential for promoting joy and community during the holiday season. Let's make it a priority. #MentalHealth #Stress #Anxiety #WorkEnvironment #Leadership #PsychologicalSafety

If you had to describe what it means for an organization to be trauma-responsive, how would you do that? At Vivant Behavioral Healthcare, our goal has been to create a trauma-responsive organizational framework that highlights safety, open communication, and emotional intelligence. In our first three years, we have found that integrating trauma-responsive strategies into company culture has created a stronger, more collaborative and more resilient organization. Prioritizing these principles helps us support those affected by trauma while cultivating a workplace where everyone thrives, driving better outcomes for both staff and clients. In what ways have you seen organizations be trauma-responsive? #Resilience #Health #TraumaResponsiveCare #OpenCommunication #EmotionalIntelligence

"Creating space for neurodiverse leaders is essential for building a thriving workplace culture." Neurodiverse individuals offer unique perspectives that can drive innovation and enhance team performance. When organizations foster a culture that supports and nurtures neurodiverse leaders, they enable those individuals to thrive and contribute in powerful ways. By embracing neurodiverse leadership, businesses can unlock new opportunities for growth and innovation, enhancing adaptability and strengthening their competitive edge. It's about creating an inclusive environment where diverse perspectives lead to stronger, more resilient organizations. #Neurodiversity #CompanyCulture #Leadership #Business

Important reminder for healthcare leaders and providers about committing to wellness and self-care to mitigate burnout from Tom Kenny.

Multiple studies confirm what many families of autistic children already know—GI issues like constipation are a common and often frustrating challenge alongside autism. One study found that 46 to 84% of children with ASD experience these GI issues, which can affect sleep, behavior, and mental health. While the exact cause isn’t fully understood, it’s clear that conditions like food selectivity and ARFID can make GI issues more complicated. The good news is that changes in diet can make a difference. For children with food selectivity, combining targeted nutritional strategies with behavioral approaches can offer real relief. With the right support, these challenges can be managed, helping kids thrive both physically and emotionally. There’s always a way forward—and with the right care, improvements are possible. #Autism #GutHealth #ASD

Thank you to all of those who have served and their families!

This short video from the American Academy of Pediatrics drives home an important point—trauma leaves a lasting impact on health, especially for children as they grow. That's why trauma-informed care is essential. When children have stable, supportive relationships, their stress responses improve. For kids, those relationships aren't just helpful—they're the key to moving from merely surviving to truly thriving, laying the foundation for healthier, happier lives.

As communities continue to see an increase in the need for behavioral health services across the continuum of care, behavioral health providers must work collaboratively to raise the bar on Treatment Quality and Patient Safety best practices.
