Tyler sits down with Reed Gunnell, owner and operator of Heritage Lane Behavioral Assisted Living, to tackle the topic of behavioral and mental health care in a residential setting.  Once an administrator for a publicly-traded company, Reed took a leap of faith and dove headfirst into the world of ownership.  Reed illuminates some of the key distinctions between ownership and employment, and gives insights into what has made his venture wildly successful – Both for him and for the residents to whom he provides care and compassion.  There are very few behavioral assisted living communities in Arizona, and not a one like Heritage Lane.  This episode provides a peak behind the curtains of this highly specialized sector, so to speak, and Reed’s years of experience and expertise shine through in his conversation with Tyler.
