Inpatient treatment provides a secure environment. This simply means that the exterior doors are locked, outside items like pocket knives, etc., are not allowed, and there is a daily schedule followed. While the surroundings are designed to provide a homelike atmosphere as possible, it is not the same as home. Patient rooms may be private or semi-private. Each room has separate toilet facilities. TVs and telephones are in common areas.

Our assessment process begins upon admission. You will be assessed by our nursing staff, medical staff, psychiatric staff, and social services staff all within the first 72 hours of your stay. You will receive individual and group counseling/therapy. You will see your doctor up to every day. You will have a case manager that works with you on developing follow-up care plans.

Everyone’s needs vary. Our inpatient program is designed to stabilize any crisis that led to admission and improve overall functioning as quickly as possible. We are not a “long-term” facility and, generally, our patients stay about two weeks – some more, some less.

Discharge planning is an active process that begins at the moment of admission. Every patient receives a specific discharge plan designed to maintain stability and reduce the possibility of readmission.

Intensive Outpatient treatment (IOP) is a structured treatment program that is designed to provide intensive treatment to individuals who are experiencing difficulties with functioning in their daily lives. IOP involves group psychotherapy and treatment is delivered under the direction of a psychiatrist.

Our clinics operate Monday-Friday and our clients may attend from 1-5 days a week depending on their needs. The MD/NP together with the client determine the frequency of days.

We receive direct referrals.

Individuals begin their treatment by meeting with an intake specialist to better understand what issues are occurring. If it’s determined that IOP would be beneficial in addressing/resolving the issues, then an appointment with a clinic psychiatrist is arranged.

Our program is covered by Medicare, commercial insurance, and some Medicaid plans. Costs vary depending on specific health insurance policies. We offer insurance verifications as part of our intake process so specific costs can be determined.

We provide three groups per treatment day.

We limit group size to 10 participants.

Our clients see their doctor at least once a month.

Medications may be ordered by our clinic doctor.

There is no preset length of the program. Progress is monitored and re-evaluated by the doctor and treatment team at least monthly.

We provide transportation to/from the clinic within a specified area.

Most of our clinics start the treatment day around 10 a.m.
