Today we are proud to welcome our newest team members to Oceans Behavioral Hospital Longview!

One of the things that stood out during the hiring process was that each of these associates came with a clear “why” - a genuine passion for working in mental health and a deep commitment to supporting individuals during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. That purpose-driven mindset is exactly what helps us build a culture where patients feel valued, heard, and supported every step of the way.

At Oceans Longview, we believe that the heart of great care starts with great people. Finding professionals who bring both compassion and purpose sets the tone for the culture we continue to grow together - one centered on teamwork, healing, and living out our mission and values daily.

I am incredibly excited to watch this group collaborate, support one another, and make a real difference in the lives of those we serve. Welcome to the team - we are grateful to have you as part of the Oceans Longview family!

Our CEO Vern loves bringing a little Louisiana flair to East Texas any chance he gets — and today was no exception! Since it’s Mardi Gras, we made sure our amazing staff got to celebrate with some traditional King Cake.

Pictured here are Vonni and Tiffany enjoying a sweet slice and helping us keep the Mardi Gras spirit alive right here in Longview!

As they say in Louisiana: “Laissez les bons temps rouler!” — which means “Let the good times roll!”

Moments like this remind us how important it is to celebrate together, appreciate our team, and bring a little joy into the work we do every day.

We had an incredible time at our Oceans Longview Chili Cook-Off!

Our team came together for a day full of fun, laughter, and some seriously good cooking. We had 7 different chili entries to sample — each with its own unique flavor — along with all the fixings to make every bowl just right. And to help balance out the spice, our very own nurse Erica Chittenden treated everyone to some amazing homemade cupcakes that were a huge hit!

We were also honored to have several wonderful community leaders and partners join us as guest judges for our People’s Choice voting. A special thank you to:

Longview City Councilman District 4 – John Nustad
Longview City Councilman District 5 – Jody Berryhill
Longview Regional CFO – Wes Knight
Cadence Bank Community Development Lender – Roberto Monsivais
Co-Owner of Premier Homecare – Chris Rigsby

And now for the winners…

🏆 Best Overall Chili: Codi 🌶️
🏆 People’s Choice Award: Codi 🌶️
🏆 Spiciest Chili: Lindsey 🌶️

Congratulations to our winners! Each will receive a Texas Roadhouse gift card along with a certificate — well deserved!

Events like this remind us how important it is to take time to celebrate our team, build connections, and enjoy moments together outside of the daily routine. Thank you to everyone who participated, supported, and helped make this such a great event.

Stay tuned — more fun team events coming soon!

Our Community Liaison, Kia, doing what she does best — connecting people to care.

Kia recently presented at Hickory Treatment Center, a local 28-day substance use treatment program, where she shared how our co-occurring program supports individuals by treating both substance use challenges and the underlying mental health conditions that often accompany them.

Recovery does not stop after 28 days. Our outpatient programs provide an important continuum of care, giving individuals ongoing support as they transition back into daily life. Research continues to show that strong continuity in treatment helps improve long-term outcomes and creates lasting positive change.

Continuum of care is essential for individuals and families navigating mental health and substance use recovery, and we are proud to partner with community organizations to ensure no one has to walk that journey alone.

Thank you, Kia, for your dedication to building connections that strengthen our community and support healing.

Thank you, Phillip, for your dedication, compassion, and commitment to helping people take that important first step toward healing. We appreciate everything you do for our hospital and our community!

One of the most unexpected (and funniest) moments from today’s Town Hall

We had representation from every department and all of our service lines — including outpatient — and as always, we mixed things up with some door prizes. Staff drew tickets from a bowl… totally random.

Every single inpatient therapist walked away with a prize. No other department. All inpatient therapy.

What are the odds?! That kind of luck still has us scratching our heads.

Huge congratulations to Tiffany’s team — Ashley, Desiree, Lindsey, and Vonni for drawing the winning tickets and heading home with some very cool door prizes. Well deserved, and clearly meant to be today!

We love moments like this that bring everyone together and remind us how special our teams really are. 👏
