Opinion: The workforce problem is a mental health problem

https://www.concordmonitor.com/My-Turn-A-mental-health-problem-45272760

 

Jay Couture is president and CEO of Seacoast Mental Health Center, Inc., a member of the NH Community Behavioral Health Association.

During the winter months I do most of my running on a treadmill with a screen and access to a training platform. Coaches prompt me to go faster than I might on my own.

You will have to be of a certain age to get this reference, but at times I find I have accelerated to the point that I feel I might “George Jetson” off the back of the treadmill. The workforce challenges we are facing in the world of community mental health are feeling similar to this phenomenon.
