ARMHS Outcomes

Adult Rehabilitative Mental Health Services 

Annual Outcomes 2012

Adult Rehabilitative Mental Health Services (ARMHS) is a rehabilitative program for people who have a mental health diagnosis along with a brain injury or other physical disability. ARMHS services focus on helping clients regain independent living skills, involvement in the community and managing their mental health. Each client receives customized services that are appropriate for them and their goals.  In 2011, 147 clients were seen by ARMHS. 

An ARMHS specialist meets clients in their homes and/or other locations to provide skills training and support until all goals are met. The time spent with the specialist varies from client to client, and typically decreases as personal goals are achieved. The types of skills that can be strengthened through ARMHS are:

  • Improving communication and interpersonal skills
  • Finding and maintaining housing
  • Developing healthy lifestyle skills and practices
  • Learning household management skills
  • Maintaining a budget for personal finances
  • Transitioning into community living
  • Using transportation and accessing the community
  • Managing symptoms related to mental health
  • Education about mental health symptoms and available treatments
  • Accessing needed mental health services and community resources
