Mission, Values and Principles of OCMHS
Our Mission “To improve the quality of life of those who are affected by mental illness” Our Agency Values Clients served by the agency are our priority concern and they must have a comprehensive array of services that are available to meet their needs. Clients served by the agency play a central role in determining their treatment. The client’s personal growth, health, welfare and safety are the first consideration for staff. The client’s needs must be responded to promptly in a positive, whole-life, goal oriented approach. The agency’s standard of professional performance is excellence. Clients served by the agency depend on staff to individually and collectively provide them with the highest degree of excellence in services. It is their right to expect it and it is staff’s responsibility to deliver it. The agency’s staff will accomplish the mission of the agency through belief in what they are doing, combining extensive clinical training and judgment with common sense, hard work, and dedication. The agency will always strive to select high quality staff and provide them with quality training and supervision in a productive, contemporary and professional manner. The agency is committed to listening to people in the agency and the communities served and incorporating their views into the decision making process. In focusing on the issues at hand, staff always should seek solutions that are functional and not in contradiction with these principles. The agency needs staff to be innovative and continually explore new and better ways of delivering services while building on what already has been accomplished.
