Partial Hospitalization Program
Our mission
is to provide state-of-the-art psychiatric services
that match individual need with specialized care. This care
entails a range of group psychotherapies, individual psychotherapy,
family therapy and medication management. We value a patient-centered
focus that uses respect and compassion to empower patients
to maximize their own potential.
|
The Partial Hospitalization Program is a short-term treatment
designed to help individuals with acute psychiatric problems.
It is available five days a week and individuals attend six hours
per day. The duration of treatment averages 4 to 5 days. Our program
offers group, individual and couples/family psychotherapy, as
well as medication treatment. Our partial hospital is small by
design. The daily census ranges from 12 to 15 individuals. This
enables us to offer more individualized care and smaller, more
intimate therapy groups. (Studies have found that treatment is
optimized by groups of this size.)
After completing a day of treatment, individuals return home for the
evening. This minimizes disruption to their daily routines, maintains
uninterrupted support of family and friends, and facilitates learning by
encouraging immediate practice of newly acquired coping skills.
