|
Please
join us as we congratulate Loren Crabtree, MD for receiving the
Philadelphia Psychiatric Society's (PPS) 2010 Robert Jones
Award! Each year this honor is given to a local
psychiatrist who has exhibited outstanding dedication to improving
the lives of the seriously mentally ill. Dr. Crabtree will be
recognized at the society's annual Benjamin Rush Awards Dinner on
November 6, 2010.
Dr. Crabtree began his career in 1967 as Director of the
Adolescent Treatment Center at the Institute of Pennsylvania
Hospital. In 1982, he and Paul Keisling, MSW co-founded Project
Transition, an innovative psychiatric treatment and rehabilitation
program. Since that time, Crabtree has spent his career seeking
creative techniques and technologies to help those with serious
mental illness live more satisfying lives.
Robert E. Jones, MD, a nationally known Philadelphia psychiatrist,
was one of the earliest champions of community psychiatry. The PPS
created the Robert Jones Award in 1997 to honor psychiatrists who
serve the seriously mentally ill.
