Integrated - Collaborative - Care
Elk's Guiding Principles:
-
Every client has the right to be treated with respect, honoring their dignity and worth.
-
Every client has the right to be treated without judgment, bias, prejudice, or other assumption.
-
Every client has the right to equitable care, inclusion, diversity. Every client has choices.
Elk uses a "biopsychosocial" lens for care - treating the whole person biologically, emotionally, psychologically, socially, familially, and spiritually. We can better help our client(s) in an integrated environment where accessible services are carefully selected, based on an overarching treatment plan - developed in collaboration with the client(s).
