1.3/5/2008 1:08:00 PMAs a provider, this is the first time we've been invited to provide any input / feedback regarding the service system. We've attended trainings, however, so we are involved.
2.3/5/2008 2:20:00 PMIn my opinion, OPC is not raising enough objections to the state's blunders in regard to Community Support. The state is making it impossible to perform the work. Instead the state is creating more and more roadblocks in providing CS Services to clients. I do not see OPC raising objections to the state's continuing attempts to destroy Community Support Services to clients. Who is supposed to provide CSS to clients when the state is forcing providers to spend more and more time in front of the computer satisfying state requirements for documentation. The more providers are forced to create paperwork the less services are given to clients. Why can't OPC raise some objections to the3 destruction of CSS for clients?
3.3/5/2008 5:10:00 PMOur program is new - has not begun to provide services in the OPC area yet. My answers come from prior experience.
4.3/11/2008 3:45:00 PMI do feel OPC could be doing more with providing mental health services to people in need in Chatham.
5.3/11/2008 7:59:00 PMI believe that Orange County has a strong group of providers for adults with SPMI (STEP, Caramore, Club Nova, XDS, Inc.) and that there was little effort to engage us in system planning. I contrast this to what I saw with child services under Lisa Lackmann's leadership.
6.3/12/2008 7:53:00 PMMy dealings with OPC staff have always been of the highest quality. I can only think of a couple of instances with staff who are no longer employed there or were really new and did not know the job yet. I can only speak highly of OPC LME-- especially after dealing with other LMEs who are not as accessible or respectful.
7.3/13/2008 4:17:00 PMOur agency works with 2 other LME's and we feel that overall our experience with OPC has been the most positive of the three. We feel that OPC has more approachable staff who are willing to work with us a team members.
