Caring Community A COMMUNITY OF HEALTHY SUPPORT Thank you to our health services support team. These members dedicate their time and compassion to providing the best possible health opportunities and outcomes to the people we serve. In the front lines is our Health Services Associate, Jeannell Dolezal. Jeannell is responsible for scheduling all medical appointments, coordinating medical training for direct support staff, maintaining medical documentation training on Therap for direct support staff, ordering and delivering all medications, maintaining all medical records and files of people in services, attending specialist appointments with people in service, and coordinating health information for human rights meetings. Jeannell also
serves as a direct liaison to all doctors, nurses, pharmacists and medical personnel. Stephenie Slaight is the part-time Registered Nurse for Mosaic but contributes monuments of service to the Ellsworth agency. She trains all direct care staff on medication administration and delegates this under her license. She communicates with all health care providers to gain insight on medications for people in service, and approves all medical administration records on Therap. She also assists to obtain lab work for people who have a difficult time visiting the health clinic and administers injections for people in service. She works closely with Jeannell to provide optimal medical service for the people
we serve and is readily available for consultation when needed. Irene Werth, Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), is the psychiatric health provider for many of the individuals in service. She has more than 25 years of experience in the behavioral health field and has been providing medication management services in the Ellsworth area for more than 12 years. She visits Mosaic in Ellsworth and meets with people in service to perform psychiatric assessments, and prescribe and adjust necessary medication. She is also one of the few health care providers in the state of Kansas that administers the GeneSight test, which checks medication compatibility with the patient’s genetic markers. Mosaic’s health care professionals are always available to give support in times of emergency and to continually provide necessary supervision. They are available to answer questions, clarify instructions and discuss any health concerns. We are grateful to have a strong health care team providing service to the people we support and helping us fulfill our mission in providing the people at Mosaic opportunities for a full life.
