Providence Health System will be bringing its Better Outcomes thru Bridges behavioral health program to Hood River this fall. Program manager Becky Wilkinson explains the program works with patients dealing with homelessness, substance abuse, and mental health issues after they leave the hospital.  She says the program is person-centered. letting the patient drive their care rather than telling them what to do.  Wilkinson said they have found that approach has led to many of their clients making the decision to seek help on their own.  Wilkinson says they will be hiring two staff members for the program in Hood River, an outreach specialist that is essential a case manager and a peer support specialist.
