Who We Serve

Encounter Telehealth provides geriatric psychiatric care for skilled nursing facilities, assisted and independent living communities. We use a HIPAA-compliant software developed specifically for telehealth, to deliver mental healthcare to residents. This creates a safe, convenient, and quality mental health care experience for our patients.

We partner with staff and other care providers to ensure quality mental and behavioral health care for our residents every step of the way. Our support staff is here for your needs, and our providers are available to answer any and all questions.

Identify Residents

Encounter partners with facility staff, local primary care providers, and families to ensure optimal care for your residents. Encounter helps your staff identify residents that would benefit from our services, including those:

  • with dementia
  • who are taking anti-depressants, anti-psychotics, and anti-anxiety medications
  • with any other diagnosed mental health issues.
How This Helps
  • Enhances quality of life
  • Improves access to mental health care in rural communities
  • Reduces over-prescribed medications
  • Improves physical and mental health
  • Removes the barrier of stigma related to mental health care
  • Engages residents, family, friends, and community in care.
For Families
Encounter knows that family members are a vital part of the care team. We partner with the facility staff, other care providers, and you to ensure the best possible treatment for your loved one.

Having a family member suffering from mental illness can be exhausting and stressful. Encounter is here to help. In addition to services for facility residents, we offer family counseling.
