Looking Forward

The Greater Nashua Mental Health is committed to staying abreast of the emerging research and evidence-based treatments and has launched integrated treatment options in close partnership with other area healthcare professionals in our community.

If we are going to be successful in meeting the demands of the 21st century, we must adapt and change our practices to meet the emerging challenges. One of our greatest challenges, however, will be to move a system of regulations and reimbursement for care that was created back in the 20th century to support the new advancements in care. Not all change moves at the same pace but there is movement and there is hope on the horizon.
