Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Treatment in Alaska
PTSD is a disorder that develops in some people who have experienced a shocking, scary, or dangerous event.
In Alaska, access to psychiatric care has historically been limited — Alaska has fewer than 5 psychiatrists per 100,000 residents — the lowest ratio of any US state — making telehealth the primary access point for psychiatric care for most Alaskans. Hometown NP's telehealth model changes this by connectingAlaska residents directly with board-certified PMHNPs via secure video — no commute or waiting room.
