Persons with illnesses such as schizophrenia and long-standing mood or characterological disorders receive custom treatment at the appropriate intensity of residential care. Compared to other residential centers, our program offers more staffing, more individual time with the psychiatrist and primary clinician, and additional psychoeducational and therapeutic activities centers. The treatment team's goal is to gain a broad understanding of each client on biological, psychological, social, and historical levels. The levels of residential care enable clients to receive the necessary nursing and physician care suitable for their symptoms and safety. These levels also enable clients to make the transition toward greater responsibility with support from the treatment team and peers in the program.
Nursing care is at the highest level.
The psychiatrist makes rounds up to seven times per week. When possible, clients should possess the ability to help identify treatment goals and collaborate with their treaters toward those goals. Adults with dual diagnosis typically require this intensive level of care. Intermediate residential care is designed for clients who require significantly less nursing supervision and have the ability to participate in therapeutic groups and activities. Clients meet with their psychiatrist at least three to five times per week.
