      Behavioral Health Technician is the updated title for Psychiatric Technician. Behavioral Health Technician - Lead is a subset of the current role. It was added in order to create a support for the behavioral health techs and to act as a liaison for the behavioral team. I personally helped to develop the role and create standard work and tools to make the role the most beneficial for the entire hospital.
