What does it actually take to build strong psychiatric support inside a skilled nursing facility? In this episode of Conditions That Matter: A Clinical Focus Series for Post-Acute Success, hosts Dr. Frank Elterman and Sara Maus are joined by a panel of clinical and operational leaders to tackle one of the most pressing challenges in post-acute care today.
Dr. Majd Alsamman, Medical Director of National Psychiatry LLC and supervising physician of the psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner team, shares his clinical perspective on medication management, antipsychotic reduction, GDR compliance, and what makes psychiatric care truly effective in skilled nursing settings.
Joining from Advinia Care Naples are Executive Director Sally Boswell and Director of Admissions Juan Villafranca, who share what they’re seeing on the ground — higher-acuity and younger residents, the impact of behavioral health on admission decisions, and what separates a psych provider who shows up from one who truly partners with a facility.
Together, the group explores why continuity, trust-building, and responsiveness are the real differentiators — and how the right psychiatric partnership becomes part of the operational foundation of a facility.
