Still figuring out a costume for tonight? Our WBI staff might have a few ideas. 😎

Never underestimate a wig, a good movie reference, and a willingness to commit to the character.

Whether you’re celebrating at work, at home, or out with family and friends, we hope you have a safe and happy Halloween surrounded by people as great as our team!

Sugar, spice, and… five Kathys? 👀

Halloween has arrived a little early at Wyoming Behavioral Institute! The Powerpuff Girls and Hogwarts crew have some competition from “The Kathys”- because dressing up as a coworker takes team spirit to another level!

A little fun can go a long way for our mental health. Dress up. Enjoy the festivities, spend time with loved ones, or simply treat yourself to something sweet, and remember that laughter and connection are important parts of our well-being. From our WBI team to you and your family, have a safe, fun, and happy Halloween!

Our team’s true colors are showing 🍊

We’re keeping our celebration going through Halloween week! WBI staff are wearing orange to highlight anti-bullying and what a difference it makes when we look out for one another. Including someone who’s being left out. Speaking up when they’re being mistreated. Letting them know someone has their back.

That’s a message worth keeping around long after the Halloween decorations come down.

Day shift is bringing the spirit. Night shift, can you turn up the heat? 💪

Connection before correction.

Before responding to a child’s behavior, taking time to understand what they may be experiencing can change how we approach the moment.

WBI’s Staff Development Facilitator, Lance Richardson, brought that perspective to the Wyoming Early Childhood Collaborative Conference in Casper this weekend. His workshop, “Connection Before Correction,” shared practical, trauma-informed strategies for building trust, responding with understanding, and creating classrooms where children feel safe and supported.

Thank you to the early childhood educators who joined the conversation and to the conference team for having WBI!

Medication safety continues at home.

Use a locked cabinet or medication lockbox, keep track of what you have, and remind family members that prescriptions should only be taken by the person they were prescribed for, as directed.

For Lock Your Meds Day, take a few minutes to check your storage and identify unused or expired medicines.

Tomorrow, Saturday, October 24, is National Prescription Drug Take Back Day—a timely opportunity to dispose of medicines you no longer need safely.

Depression can make everyday life harder, at school, at work, at home and in relationships.

Changes in sleep, energy, concentration, or interest in things you usually enjoy are worth discussing, especially when they persist. During Depression and Mental Health Screening Month, we encourage people to notice those changes and start a conversation. A screening can help identify concerns to discuss with a healthcare professional. An assessment can help determine what kind of care may be appropriate.

WBI provides inpatient and outpatient mental health services for children, teens, and adults. Our Intake team is available 24/7 to discuss confidential level-of-care assessments and next steps.

Forty years at WBI. Patty, you’ve earned this celebration. 💜

A hospital stay can interrupt so many familiar routines. Making sure patients are nourished and their dietary needs are met is an essential part of caring for them. As our Director of Dietary and Food Services, Patty leads that work—bringing together the nutritional needs of our patients and the everyday comfort of a meal around a table.

It was a pleasure to gather around hers and celebrate this milestone.

Congratulations, Patty! 🎉
