Single Point of Access (SPOA) expedites access to care management, housing and Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) services for adults ages 18+ diagnosed with serious and persistent mental illness who are striving to remain healthy and stable in the community.
Lakeview Health Services coordinates the SPOA committee and the referral process for residents of Ontario, Seneca and Yates Counties. Services include care management, intensive case management, ACT Team services, and housing through Lakeview’s community residences, licensed apartments and supported housing programs.
Programs may be accessed by completing a SPOA referral form and supplying the required clinical documentation. Based on established eligibility criteria and identified need, the SPOA will make referrals to the most suitable programs. Referral forms may be completed by the individual’s clinician, who can expedite the process by submitting the necessary clinical documentation with the SPOA referral forms.
