September is National Su***de Prevention Awareness Month.

At Oceans Healthcare, we recognize this month as an opportunity to create space for open, honest conversations about mental health and su***de. These are conversations that can help reduce stigma, build understanding and remind us that support is available.

This month, we invite you to join the conversation. Check in with the people around you, listen without judgement, share resources, and help create an environment where someone can speak openly about what they may be facing.

Mental health challenges do not always look the same, and the signs may not always be obvious. Sometimes, simply asking how someone is doing can open the door to healing.

If you or someone you love may need additional support, you do not have to navigate it alone. Oceans Healthcare provides compassionate behavioral healthcare designed to meet you where you are.

Oceans Healthcare is built for you. Visit https://oceanshealthcare.com/find-care/ to learn more today.

Our Inpatient Team Has Been Hard at Work! đź’™

Oceans Behavioral Hospital - DeRidder is proud to recognize the incredible work happening within our inpatient program!

This week, our patients explored Protective Factors and the important role they play in maintaining and strengthening mental health. Together, they discussed:

- Social Support
- Healthy Coping Skills
- Physical Health
- Sense of Purpose
- Self-Esteem
- Healthy Thinking

Patients were encouraged to take an honest look at each area, rate how they are currently doing, and identify the protective factors that have helped them most during difficult times. They also selected two areas they would like to strengthen, turning self-awareness into meaningful goals for continued growth and recovery.

A special KUDOS to our Inpatient Therapy and Social Services Team for creating opportunities like this for our patients to learn, reflect, and build skills they can carry with them beyond hospitalization.

We also want to recognize our Discharge Planner, whose work helps connect the progress made during hospitalization with the resources and support patients need as they transition back into the community, and our Clinical Social Worker, who oversees and supports our inpatient team's efforts to provide thoughtful, patient-centered care.

Mental health treatment is truly a TEAM effort, and we are incredibly proud of the compassion, collaboration, and dedication this team brings to our patients every day. đź’™

Our therapist and nurse joined patients for a hands-on therapeutic activity making Oobleck!

Sensory activities like this can encourage mindfulness, grounding, emotional regulation, problem-solving, and healthy coping skills, all while giving patients an opportunity to connect, laugh, and learn together.

Oobleck also provided a fun way to explore change and how we respond when things don’t go quite as expected.

Kudos to our team for finding creative ways to make mental health treatment engaging and meaningful!

“I’m fine. I’m just tired.”

Sometimes “tired” means more than needing a good night’s sleep.

It can look like getting through the workday but having nothing left when you get home.

It can feel like anxiety that never quite turns off, a low mood you can’t seem to shake, irritability, difficulty concentrating, or simply feeling overwhelmed by everything you’re carrying.

And when you work during the day, finding time to get support can feel like one more impossible thing on the list.

That’s why we’re bringing mental health support into the evening.
