WEBVTT

00:00.329 --> 00:02.996
(heart beating)

00:15.980 --> 00:19.000
- We have individuals
who may have experienced

00:19.000 --> 00:21.180
some significant trauma,
or may be dealing with

00:21.180 --> 00:24.080
significant anxiety or depression.

00:24.080 --> 00:27.340
So now we have our Behavioral
Health Optimization Program

00:27.340 --> 00:29.700
which is located within
our operational med clinic

00:29.700 --> 00:31.054
in the main hospital.

00:31.054 --> 00:33.750
And so we advise that anyone that needs

00:33.750 --> 00:36.730
mental health services,
that they present there.

00:36.730 --> 00:39.000
There's walk-in hours,
no appointment necessary.

00:39.000 --> 00:40.530
- There are times where people,

00:40.530 --> 00:44.070
they have no support outside
of the military, per se.

00:44.070 --> 00:47.540
So being able to come
in and talk to somebody

00:47.540 --> 00:49.301
and get that support that you may not have

00:49.301 --> 00:51.610
when you leave work,
when you leave the base,

00:51.610 --> 00:53.410
it's very important.

00:53.410 --> 00:55.400
BHOP is now that first stop.

00:55.400 --> 00:58.620
A provider, or myself, will
determine whether or not

00:58.620 --> 00:59.990
you are appropriate for BHOP,

00:59.990 --> 01:03.060
or if there's a need for
referral, such as mental health,

01:03.060 --> 01:06.440
Military OneSource, chaplain,
or other outside assistance.

01:07.780 --> 01:10.280
- Mental wellness, again,
keeps us in the fight,

01:10.280 --> 01:12.223
and that's exactly what we want to do.
