Behavioral Health System Assessment and Planning


System transformation happens in stages. Some behavioral health systems may already have a solid recovery foundation on which to build, whereas others may be earlier in the development process. Some providers may believe they are already sufficiently recovery oriented, while people accessing services may desire significant enhancements. An Achara Consulting system assessment can help you make sense of your system’s current status and your system’s potential.

System assessments typically include:

  • A symposium to introduce and discuss ROSC concepts
  • A series of focus groups and community forums
  • Site visits
  • A review of policies and procedures
  • Interviews
  • A formal survey or readiness assessment

At the conclusion of the system assessment, you’ll receive an actionable report that identifies and analyzes your system’s strengths, challenges, assets, suggested areas of focus, and recommended immediate priorities. We may also recommend supports and resources that will help you with your next steps.
