| Adolescent services
When adolescents teens experience psychological or emotional distress, they may exhibit certain behaviors or symptoms that alert parents to the problem.
|
| Adult psychiatric services
Adult psychiatric services may include traditional outpatient therapy or inpatient care. Outpatient therapy is usually recommended for individuals with psychological, emotional, or substance abuse problems who are still able to work, take care of themselves, and function at home and in society.
|
| After-care
After-care can be as important as the initial step to seek help in the process of recovering from alcohol or drug abuse. It's designed to assist recovering substance abusers to stay free of alcohol or drugs.
|
| Choosing a treatment center
Choosing a psychiatric hospital, treatment center, or treatment program can be extremely difficult. There are outpatient and inpatient facilities to choose from, various treatment plans to consider, and financial issues to contend with.
|
| Group therapy
Group therapy has several advantages over individual or one-on-one treatment. To begin with, it brings together people who are suffering from the similar problems, allowing them to share their stories and provide support for one another.
|
| Hospitalization
In cases involving severe mental, emotional, or substance abuse problems, hospitalization may be necessary. There are many conditions and disorders that can be more effectively dealt with in a hospital setting.
|
| How to help your employees and co-workers
Often, supervisors and co-workers are the first to recognize someone with a mental, emotional, or substance abuse problem. Co-workers have one advantage over families because they're somewhat less likely to develop denial.
|
| Partial hospitalization
Partial hospitalization is often a desirable alternative to traditional inpatient hospital programs. Day hospitals are designed to help individuals with illnesses or disorders that don't compromise their ability to function at home or in society.
|
| Substance abuse services
Treatment of substance abuse can be accomplished in a variety of settings, depending on the nature and severity of the problem. Often the first step in recovery is intervention, which is designed to encourage substance abusers to face their addiction.
