Orbit Health Launches Telepsychiatry Initiative to Reduce impact of COVID-19 (Coronavirus)
LOS ANGELES, March 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Orbit Health Telepsychiatry, a leading provider of virtual psychiatry services, announced its Community Leaders Support Initiative (CLSI). This program was developed to provide rapid access to mental health services for community leaders at the forefront of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) response. These services are free of charge for a limited time for community leaders and their immediate families.*
"Healthcare leaders tackling COVID-19 are under intense pressure as they make decisions that impact lives," said Edward Kaftarian, MD, Chief Executive Officer of Orbit Health. "Our goal is to support their mental health so that they can make optimal decisions for their communities. The last thing we want is for these individuals to worry about their mental health, or that of their family. Orbit Health can bring them the peace of mind they deserve through our industry-leading telepsychiatry model." Dr. Kaftarian added, "As a bonus, our care reduces the exposure to COVID-19 because it is delivered remotely."
Heightened concern of person-to-person transmission, rapid community spread, and the call for social distancing have highlighted the advantages of telemedicine. This Orbit Health initiative will focus on delivering a concierge telepsychiatry service to industry leaders and their families.
Orbit Health delivers top-notch mental health services for the CLSI with board-certified psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners, including experts in addiction and pediatric mental health. Qualifying CLSI participants will have prompt access for assessment and treatment of conditions such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.
Through timely, high quality mental health services, community leaders will be better equipped and supported to continue the fight to contain COVID-19 in their communities. Interested organizational leaders can learn more by visiting https://www.orbithealth.com/coronavirus-covid-19-response
