Produktbeschreibung

This book focuses on the strategy of embedded behavioral health (EBH), a model developed for the military to provide services in proximity to where service members live and work. It applies to both garrison and deployed individuals so that wherever combat units are located there are organic behavioral health resources available. The book provides an understanding of the importance of EBH programs, and their crucial role in promoting early prevention and intervention opportunities. The goal is to shift behavioral care so that the right resources are available in the right place at the right time. As such, this book serves as an invaluable guide to these vital programs.

"The very nature of the profession of arms is inherently dangerous. On the battlefield, success rests on the capabilities of every fighting service member and this book provides guidelines on how embedded behavioral health (EBH) professionals can preserve that agility, assist those service members, and help maintain the mental health of the force. It is essential reading!"

-Sergeant Major Joseph Buckler, M.A., U.S. Army (Ret)

"Diving into the intricacies of military psychology, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of Embedded Behavioral Health (EBH) within various branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. From its historical roots to its evolving role in contemporary military operations, the chapters crafted by Drs. Thrasher, James, and O'Donohue delve into the challenges, strategies, and ethical considerations faced by EBH providers in elite and traditional operations. Authored by seasoned professionals with firsthand experience, this book provides insights for military leaders, healthcare practitioners, and anyone interested in understanding the intersection of mental health and military readiness. This handbook is a great resource for new or aspiring mental health care workers-social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists, and psychiatric nurse practitioners-working with military populations."

-Colonel Stephen V. Bowles, U.S. Army (Ret), PhD, ABPP, Editor, Handbook of Military Psychology: Clinical and Organization Practice and Former President, Society for Military Psychology
