IBHS Access Family Survey

(Sent on behalf of OMHSAS)

Family feedback requested on accessing Intensive Behavioral Health Services (IBHS)

The Mental Health Planning Council, under the direction of The Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (OMHSAS), is conducting a survey on accessing Intensive Behavioral Health Services (IBHS) and is requesting assistance in distributing the survey to families and providers.

• The Mental Health Planning Council is conducting a family survey to collect feedback on accessing Intensive Behavioral Health Services (IBHS).
• The survey link and flyer should be shared with providers, who can then share it with families.
• Feedback will be de-identified and compiled by the Family Satisfaction Team of Montgomery County to be shared with relevant entities.

Data collection for the survey will run from July 3 through August 7, 2023.

RCPA, on behalf of our members and those they serve, continue our efforts advocating for children, families, and practitioners delivering IBHS services. We respectfully ask our members to share this survey with families they are currently serving. The information will be utilized to examine challenges and opportunities in creating more viable pathways to IBHS services.
