Goldbelt Glacier Health Services was formed in March, 2011, to provide quality healthcare and wellness services to the uniformed military and their families, veterans and secondarily to the private sector. Glacier comprises three divisions: Health Services, Warrior Care and Family Support.
Health Services focuses on placement of clinical and administrative positions, with particular emphasis on staffing of military hospitals and clinics that support Wounded Warrior and military families. The division also provides maintenance of Out of Warranty medical equipment, e.g. at Scott Air Force Base.
Warrior Care combines in-house experience to meet the needs of Wounded Warriors and their families with our team members who offer expertise in psychological health, treatment and prevention of chronic disease, wellness, coaching, mentoring and training. Warrior Care has offices in Alexandria, VA and San Antonio, TX.
Family Support current addresses the needs of both the Active and Reserve Components of the US Army and the National Guard Bureau. For the Army, the focus is on Army Community Service: Army Family Team Building, Mobilization/Deployment issues, Installation Volunteer Coordinator, and Relocation. Support to the National Guard includes Soldier and Family Support, Education and Employment, Family Programs and Survivor Outreach Services. Glacier's sister company, Goldbelt Wolf, also manages the National Guard Bureau's Joint Services Support (JSS) Portal which provides members of the Guard and their families access to seven tailored support programs such as the Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program, Psychological Health, and Sexual Abuse and Prevention Response (SAPR).
Please see the excerpt from a letter sent to Goldbelt Glacier Health Services, LLC and each of the subcontractors responsible for the National Guard Psychological Health Program from the Senate Subcommittee on Financing and Contracting Oversight. These letters can all be read in the entirety at: http://www.hsgac.senate.gov/subcommittees/fco/letters
ReplyDelete“The Subcommittee has received new allegations that Goldbelt has struggled to meet the contract’s requirements, including failing to adhere to mental health counseling licensure requirements, failing to protect client confidentiality, failing to arrange for the transfer of patient files when personnel leaves, and failing to institute standard policies to insure that adequate care is provided. I also appears that Goldbelt has failed to provide the required number of mental health professionals to serve the needs of the National Guard.”
