ETMC Behavioral Health's Outpatient Day Treatment offers help for adults experiencing significant difficulties with emotional, family, work and/or behavioral functioning.
Staying close to home
Participants work through the treatment process while staying close to home and avoiding the intensity of an inpatient setting. Participants have the peace of mind in knowing the counselors are on hand 24 hours a day to offer support.
In the program, ETMC Behavioral Health Center establishes a therapeutic environment in which each individual learns problem-solving skills in order to develop confident attitudes. The caring environment allows the participants to help tailor their individualized program. Family involvement is a key element in the healing process and individual family sessions are available.
Alternative to inpatient treatment
Treatment is a full- or partial-day outpatient program. It provides a long-needed alternative to inpatient treatment while preserving family and professional ties, which can be so difficult to maintain.
It is also a cost-effective program operating in the least restrictive setting. The patient is allowed to remain in the home environment connected to family, friends and community.
