OUR APPROACH & MODEL OF CARE

Our Approach: Evidence-Based, Person-Centered, Barrier-Responsive Care

TSGBH operates using an integrated, person-centered approach aligned with North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS) standards and Managed Care Organization (MCO) expectations.

Our model is designed for individuals with high needs and high barriers, prioritizing engagement, continuity, and accountability.

Evidence-Based & Evidence-Informed Practice

TSGBH utilizes evidence-based and evidence-informed practices that support engagement, stabilization, and recovery across behavioral health and community-based services.

Our care delivery emphasizes:

  • clinically sound interventions

  • recovery-oriented frameworks

  • trauma-responsive engagement strategies

  • consistency across service delivery

Person-Centered Planning (PCP)

All services are guided by Person-Centered Planning (PCP) that reflects each individual’s goals, strengths, preferences, and lived experience.

PCP ensures care is:

  • individualized rather than prescriptive

  • responsive to changing needs

  • aligned with treatment goals and support services

  • documented in a manner consistent with state and MCO requirements

Innovation in Access & Engagement

TSGBH expands access through:

  • virtual service delivery

  • community-based engagement

  • peer support

  • coordinated care frameworks

This approach is especially critical for rural and underserved counties, where provider shortages and transportation barriers limit access to traditional care models.

Innovation at TSGBH is not about technology alone—it is about designing systems that work for real people.

Barrier Reduction & Social Determinants of Health

TSGBH actively addresses barriers to care that interfere with engagement and outcomes, including:

  • housing instability

  • transportation limitations

  • geographic isolation

  • system navigation challenges

  • inconsistent access to providers

We design services to reduce these barriers rather than penalize individuals for them.

Structured Care Pathways & Continuity

Rather than delivering disconnected services, TSGBH implements structured care pathways that promote:

  • accountability and documentation integrity

  • continuity across services and transitions

  • proactive engagement for high-risk individuals

  • appropriate service utilization

This structure supports measurable progress while maintaining flexibility to meet individuals where they are.
