BHN’s Care Management programs provide team based comprehensive medical and behavioral Care Management services for children, youth and adults in our service area.
- BHN serves individuals with physical health/chronic disease needs, behavioral health needs, and complex, co-morbid physical and behavioral health needs.
- Care Management teams are staffed by experienced Registered Nurses, master’s-level behavioral health clinicians, Care Coordinators and paraprofessional community health workers.
- Care Management teams are integrated with primary care staff in community and health centers and in primary care settings that have physical health CM nurses.
- BHN contracts with insurers such as Commonwealth Care Alliance (One Care) and the Massachusetts Behavioral Health Partnership (MBHP) to provide both medical and behavioral health care management.

National Nurses Week is celebrated from May 6 to May 12, 2024, and each year throughout May. This year, the American Nurses Association has selected the theme "Nurses Make the Difference" to encourage nurses, other healthcare professionals, employers, community leaders, and the public to recognize and promote the vast contributions and positive impact of nurses.
We recently spoke with Tiffany Rufino, the Youth Mental Health Coalition Manager at the Public Health Institute of Western Mass, and a member of BHN’s Board of Directors to gain insights on addressing mental health topics.
“Throughout my life, I’ve always worked in community and youth development,” Tiffany says. “I didn’t have a huge background in public health, but I did have experience working and developing youth programs and in high schools with youth in Springfield.”
Congratulations to Anthia T. Elliott, who serves as the Program Director for BHN’s Domestic Violence & P.A.T.C.H. Services, who is the recipient of the Massachusetts Office for Victim Assistance (MOVA) Advocate of the Year award. This award recognizes an individual from a community-based agency who has made extraordinary contributions to the lives of victims and survivors.
