When Helping Hurts... Trauma effects you, me and our first responders. How do they cope to be Alive and Well? Jade Harrell with Sgt. Sally Panzer and April Casey who know first-hand what it's like to be on the front lines.
Person-centered care is a shift in the way of thinking and doing things in healthcare that sees the patients as partners to make sure the services meet their needs. Add in a trauma-informed and trained staff and the possibilities are outstanding. Dr. Caroline Day brings respect and consideration to each of her patients in family medicine. The "Alive and Well STL" message provided the piece of the puzzle that was missing from sustainable results and care with her patients. She became an ambassador and found it to be as rewarding to her as it was for those who benefited from the application of the training. Veronica Richardson is at the senior level of administration as the Vice President of Quality Improvement with Affinia Healthcare. She not only discovered the "Alive and Well STL" Ambassadors training was essential for improving the communication and relationship between staff and patients; but it also improved the well-being of their staff in their personal and professional lives. Veronica came to healthcare early on as a child and was taught that community care is what truly makes us all Alive and Well!!!

Meet Greg Kenner. Also known as Mr. Bigg. Clever, funny, dedicated and determined. A father and husband living a dual existence. On the outside, he's the happiest guy in the world. Inside he's burried under the stress and anguish of something painful and frustrating. So much so that he uses food among other things to insulate him from the hurt. His health, his weight and his heart suffer through the suppression. And though his weight has ballooned to nearly 400 pounds, he keeps trying. For anyone who might see him, they would say Mr. Bigg hardly has a care in the world. For Greg this is by design so that he may bring joy to others and maybe gain a little joy for himself as he works on the rest.…

Producer, Jade Harrell sitting in for Bethany in the studio with Reverend Rice, Pastor of New Horizon Christian Church and founding member of the Bridges to Care and Recovery program, along with Rose Jackson-Beavers, Community Connector Project Manager for Bridges. So much of what we talk about with Alive and Well shows us how important faith communities are to our community’s well being. Before we get started, we want to highlight some of the work that the Behavioral Health Network does here in St. Louis called “Bridges to Care and Recovery”. Bridges views faith communities as an integral part of the mental health response of our community. The program works with churches in St. Louis to help their pastors and lay leaders better understand mental illness and how to respond to congregants in need. They also help connect those experiencing mental health crises to the right types of resources. Bridges works to make faith communities spaces that are supportive of members living with mental illness and their family members and caregivers. In this episode discover: How the Bridges to Care and Recovery program started here in St. Louis. The services that are offered to members of the churches Rev. Rice and Rose work with. After a church goes through the Bridges program, what changes its congregant’s notice. What goes into making a church a “Bridges church”. Much of Reverend Rice’s life has been devoted to advocacy in our community and working to make it a less violence and healthier place to live. He shares how trauma and stress impacts the people and faith community. Why it is so important to have our faith communities informed about mental health-what it looks like, how it is treated, and how it affects families and caregivers. What makes Reverend Rice so passionate about doing this work with churches. Thank you everyone for joining us for another episode of Alive and Well STL. We look forward to speaking with you next week. For more information about Alive and Well STL follow us on Twitter @aliveandwellstl, Facebook or visit us online at aliveandwellstl.com. We’ll be back next week. Thanks for listening!…
Producer Jade Harrell (sitting in for Bethany Johnson-Javois) with Pat McGonigle, anchor for KSDK Channel 5 and Sergeant Sally Panzer from the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department. Through their work, as well as their life experiences, they have a unique perspective on what our region needs to become Alive and Well. Mr. McGonigle and Sgt. Panzer were brought together at the McAtee Awards, of which Mr. McGonigle was the host. These awards, given by Mental Health America of Eastern Missouri, honor law enforcement officers whose compassion and dedication make a significant difference in the lives of persons living with mental illness. Sgt. Panzer was honored twice this year for two separate situations with individuals experiencing a mental health crisis, both of which had positive outcomes. She clearly has a proven track record of success -- as an officer -- of helping people living with mental illness get connected to care they need to become well. As host for the second year of the Mental Health America McAtee Awards, Mr. McGonigle has become a champion for officers who help facilitate positive outcomes for families and individuals experiencing a mental health crisis. Mr. McGonigle has seen first-hand the difference a well-trained, compassionate officer can have in the life of a family member of someone living with mental illness. Surprised to hear a police officer and a television news anchor talking about mental illness? Discover how the two worlds became involved in this topic. IN THIS EPISODE: Sgt. Panzer's role as a law enforcement officer when responding to someone in a mental health crisis. Share Mr. McGonigle's story about having law enforcement responding to calls in his home. The impact that the officers made when interacting with his family member living with a mental illness. How we as a community can support the ability of law enforcement to respond effectively to people with mental illness. Pat's recommendation to families who may be going through this difficult time. Why having a family member living with a mental illness can be difficult without having a support system in place. Sgt. Panzer's suggestions for us who may find ourselves in a situation with a family member in crisis and the police become involved. Thank you everyone for joining us for another episode of Alive and Well STL. We look forward to speaking with you next week. For more information about Alive and Well STL follow us on Twitter @aliveandwellstl or visit us online at aliveandwellstl.com. We’ll be back next week. Thanks for listening!…
