RECOVERY STORIES
(RURAL NEWS TODAY) - "Utilizing Telehealth technologies in Colusa County, is a win-win situation for all," say Susan Wagenaar, founder of Colusa County Recovery. "Telehealth addresses transportation challenges and reduces the stigma often associated with seeking treatment at a mental health facility in a small community, where everyone knows everyone, and a person's anonymity can not always be protected," says Wagenaar. "Our county has three community-based TELEHEALTH CARE-CENTERS located in Colusa, Williams and Stonyford. These centers are effectively decreasing care gaps and privacy barriers; while broadly advancing telehealth, to community members in need of primary care, mental health, and addiction recovery services," says Wagenaar.
