STANDING
IN THE
GAP.
HOW IT WORKS
Before individuals with psychiatric complications discharge from restrictive settings they are typically set up with living arrangements, outpatient office appointments and other things like that…
However, we’ve found a gap in care that exists between restrictive settings and outpatient care…
& because of that gap, we know from research that schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders are the #1 cause of Medicaid and Medicare 7-day readmissions...
& the period directly following hospitalization carries increased risk of homelessness & increased drug use…
...even symptom relapse & violent episodes.
There is also a 12-fold increased risk of death in the first two weeks after discharge...
& suicide rates are highest in the first week with a peak rate on the second day post-discharge....
Lucid Living stands in the gap with whole-person transitional care that addresses clinical components to circumvent the likelihood of those outcomes--while making sure service-users get from restrictive settings to home with complete care and continuity…

LUCID LIVING
OUR STORY
We saw too many neighbors and friends die or be readmitted directly after discharge from restrictive settings. So, we formed a peer-run and grass-root healthcare delivery organization that works passionately to facilitate and provide less restrictive support to psychiatric populations in our own community.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to help individuals navigate transitional periods in their lives with holistic care that enhances motivation and promotes recovery.
TECHNOLOGY
We utilize technology that ultimately contributes to more public safety, justice in healthcare rationing and individualized health equity for psychiatric populations in less restrictive settings.
