Inpatient Program
Our Older Adult Inpatient Program is designed to care for those with emotional difficulties, with or without a dementia diagnosis. Our treatment team provides structured therapeutic services in a caring environment to individuals suffering from anxiety disorders, depression and other mood disorders, and chemical dependency.

We work closely with families and other caregivers to include them in this process.
