At the request of the patient or medical providers, PGS will provide a comprehensive assessment of the patient, recommend a treatment plan, and refer the patient for necessary ongoing care.
PGS prescribers monitor and manage psychiatric medications for patients. We provide reports and data to help facilities manage population health metrics and maintain compliance with CMS regulations. Gradual Dose Reduction (GDR) is a key element of care for PGS clinicians. Whenever possible, PGS clinicians are looking to discontinue unnecessary medications to reduce adverse effects.
PGS provides psychotherapy through licensed psychologists, social workers, and nurse practitioners if medically necessary. Services include individual counseling and family therapy.
PGS clinical staff are available 24 hours to assist with managing crisis behaviors via telehealth or in-person, if necessary. Our 100+ providers ensure consistent coverage. When an issue arises, you will be able to reach to them on their personal cell phone for their expertise, and (if necessary) with hospital admissions for the patient in crisis.
PGS providers have relationships with many hospitals and will assist facilities to identify the most appropriate placement when hospital admission is necessary. PGS also assists with referrals to other psychiatric facilities when requested by the nursing home or a resident’s family.
PGS professionals provide facility staff with seminars on a wide variety of clinical topics, including behavior management and the psychopharmacological aspects of specific medications. Topics are tailored to the facility staff and their patient population.
PGS has a streamlined referrals process to ensure we promptly see patients where the facility has identified behavioral, mood, or medication concerns.
PGS collaborates with each facility to ensure compliance and quality. In addition to attending regular quality assurance and pharmacy meetings, PGS will review clinical operations programs upon facility request.
