Last week, we had the opportunity to partner with Sunset Lake Elementary School for their Anxious Generation Family Night, and it was such a meaningful evening. The night was filled with honest conversations, connection and a strong sense of community. We were truly inspired by the way families and staff show up for their students and for each other.
Talking about mental health, including su***de prevention, anxiety, depression and the impact technology has on adolescents, isn't always easy. This group leaned in, asked thoughtful questions and showed a true commitment to learning and supporting their kids.
This event was a powerful reminder that it truly takes a village. We're grateful for this partnership and look forward to continuing to support the Vicksburg community moving forward! 💚

We asked Amy, our Nursing Administrative Assistant, what drew her to a career at Forest View Hospital, and here's what she shared:
"I was drawn to Forest View because of the growth opportunities. From the start, it was clear that there is a strong sense of purpose in what we do here. The orientation process was intentional and well put together, which made me feel supported stepping into my role. The training was thoughtful and paced in a way that allowed me to truly understand our culture and values, rather than just rushing through the information. I am genuinely humbled by the importance of the work we get to do and feel aligned with our company values in a way that makes me feel meaningful. I'll admit that the free meals in the cafeteria are a pretty great perk too!"

Happy Friday! We're excited to introduce one of our dedicated clinicians, Kayla, LLMSW! ✨
Kayla earned her Master of Social Work from Spring Arbor University and began working with underserved populations in 2022. Since joining the team at Forest View, she's brought compassion, steady support and a strong clinical skillset to the individuals and families we serve every day.
We asked Kayla what inspired her to pursue this path and what led her to serve:
"I value supporting individuals during periods of acute needs. My background in trauma-informed and crisis-focused environments prepared me to work with high-acuity patients, collaborate with interdisciplinary teams and provide the structure necessary for stabilization. I appreciate being able to build rapport quickly, create a sense of safety and help patients make meaningful progress in a short time."
We're grateful to have Kayla on our team and thankful for the care she provides to our patients and community each day. Thank you, Kayla, for all that you do!

Our Business Development Account Manager, Meghan, attended a health fair at Rockford High School last week that brought supports from across the West Michigan community together with one shared message - no one has to do this alone.
"It was a heartwarming experience to talk with families, students, providers and our community partners about how important mental health is. Know that, no matter what you're going through, there is a network behind you!" Meghan shared.
