Today we tried something new at KCH… Admin Job Swap Day. 😄
Marketing tackled budgets.
Finance tried to get creative.
IT handled HR.

And let’s just say… we quickly realized why everyone has their own job title. 😅
We’ll stick to our regular jobs from here on out. 👏

🧠Fresh Friday Tip 🧠
If emotions feel overwhelming, try naming them.
“I feel stressed,” “I feel disappointed,” or “I feel anxious.”

Putting words to feelings can reduce their intensity and help you respond with care rather than reaction. 💙 It also opens the door for communication, helping others better understand what you’re experiencing.

🤝 Looking for additional support to manage emotions or stress in your life?
Group therapy classes offered through the Behavioral Health Clinic help participants learn how to process emotions, develop healthier thought patterns, and build behaviors that support overall well-being.

💙 January is Substance Use Disorder Treatment Month 💙

Substance use disorders (SUDs) can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, background, or income. Like diabetes, asthma, or arthritis, SUDs are chronic medical conditions that deserve compassionate, evidence-based care.

At Kaniksu Community Health, we treat substance use disorders the same way we treat any other health condition- with dignity, individualized care, and long-term support. 🌱

🩺 Our Substance Use Disorder Services (SUDS) include:
• Outpatient treatment for drug and alcohol use disorders
• Individual and group therapy
• Collaboration with your in-house primary care team
• Integrated care addressing behavioral, physical, and social needs

Recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all, and it isn’t a journey anyone has to walk alone. Whether substance use is mild, moderate, or severe, we stay alongside individuals and their loved ones, adapting care as needs change. 🤝
