Inpatient Acute Care

Inpatient care includes separate programs for adults and adolescents with 24-hour nursing, daily interventions, and oversight by a psychiatrist. The program is intended to be short term and is designed to quickly stabilize the patient's most serious symptoms, allowing for a quick transition to less intensive levels of care.

Admission into inpatient care occurs only with a physician's order. It is for conditions that cannot be treated safely or effectively on an outpatient basis.

Advantages of Inpatient Care:

  • Safe, controlled, structured environment
  • Intensive physician involvement
  • Physician-led, multi-disciplinary treatment team
  • Use of medication and psychotherapy as appropriate
  • Medically supervised detoxification (for alcohol and drugs)
  • Intensive treatment not available on an outpatient basis
  • Daily program with therapy groups and classes every day
