Ten Broeck Hospital offers highly structured Adult programs that
utilize a multidisciplinary team approach for treating adults (ages
18 and over) who are experiencing problems with psychiatric
illnesses, emotional problems, and/or substance abuse. These
programs are designed to provide the highest level of direct
patient care that is possible, which includes physical, social,
spiritual, medical and psychotherapeutic treatment
interventions
Treatment & Discharge
Planning
Before admission to any of the Adult programs, patients receive
a comprehensive assessment of their mental, physical and spiritual
needs to determine the most appropriate level of care. The
treatment team, led by the attending psychiatrist, develops an
individual treatment plan for each patient and meets regularly to
review each patient's progress and to update treatment goals. Ten
Broeck Hospital recognizes that recovery and healing is a lifelong
process and therefore discharge planning begins upon admission. The
treatment team works closely with each patient to set realistic
goals for continuing care following treatment and makes available
information or referral for further services as necessary.
