Laurelwood
Adult Mental Health Philosophy of Care
Laurelwood’s adult mental health program emphasizes the individual, creating a therapeutic environment based on the individual’s needs and varying degrees of mental illness. The Inpatient program offers crisis stabilization for ages 18 and above. Our interdisciplinary team develops a comprehensive and individualized treatment plan for each patient. The patient is an important part of his own treatment plan, helping set goals and identifying personal strengths that will lead him through hospitalization and into recovery. Other members of the team could include: psychiatric nurses, group therapists, activity therapists, social workers, the program coordinator and psychiatrist. The patient's family may be asked to participate in a family session. Throughout the treatment process, patients participate in a consistent, structured program. The treatment team evaluates each patient’s progress toward his goals twice weekly.
