Thank you for the review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience as an employee at our Carlisle office. We take employee feedback like yours into account and do our best to stay competitive with compensation in the field. Earlier this year we administered raises for our Intensive Behavioral Health Services staff as a result. Thanks again

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to hear about your experience. Our consumers and their treatment are of the utmost importance to us so we are disappointed to learn of your perspective. Additionally, our employees are very important to us as well. Should any employee be dissatisfied with their supervisor, we have always encouraged them to utilize their program director and upper management to assist with conflict resolution. We do our best to stay competitive with compensation in the field, and in fact, we administered exceptional raises in 2021 for Intensive Behavioral Health Services staff. We also do our best to provide resources and therapeutic activities for our IBHS staff to use for sessions, which are located in each county office. We have shared your feedback with the management team. Thank you

Thank you for the review. We are pleased to hear that you have felt supported and are enjoying your experience as a School Based Outpatient Therapist. The flexibility of a schedule that follows the traditional school year is convenient for many. Thanks again
