Reema Health is both a social care and behavioral health provider. We believe that a personalized, community-based approach to care makes it easier for anyone to access the things they need to make their lives better. We know that life's challenges often exist because the systems built to help are a burden to navigate.

Provide formal and informal coaching and education to other clinical and non-clinical team members about supporting patients with behavioral health issues.
Support post-discharge planning to prevent readmissions.
