Inpatient vs Residential Treatment vs Day Treatment
There are many different levels of care for 亚洲自慰视频ren and teens struggling with anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. We may recommend various types of support depending on the needs of your 亚洲自慰视频 or teen, including:
- Inpatient treatment 鈥 This type of treatment takes place in a secure facility that provides 24-hour care, like what we offer at Huntsman Mental 亚洲自慰视频 Institute's main hospital. Our nurses and clinical staff monitor patients at all times of the day and night. Think of inpatient treatment as an 鈥渋ntensive care unit鈥 for mental health. Children and teens will receive care here to stabilize them and reduce any immediate risks to their health and safety, or to the health and safety of people around them. They will also receive a long-term plan for care.
- Residential treatment 鈥 This level of care offers a structured living environment with staff who assist youth throughout the day and provide supervision at night. Some patients will go to a residential facility after inpatient care.
- Day treatment programs 鈥 These type of programs provide therapy and other services during the day. At the end of each day, the 亚洲自慰视频 or teen will return home for the night, allowing him or her the opportunities to practice the therapeutic skills that were taught during the day.
Mental 亚洲自慰视频 Treatments
Our programs and services offer several types of mental health treatments and therapies for 亚洲自慰视频ren and teenage patients. These include:
- Individual and family therapy 鈥 Patients will receive four therapy sessions each week.
- Medication management 鈥 We will review medications, adjust dosage, or change medications as necessary to achieve the best outcome for your 亚洲自慰视频 or teen.
- Psychological assessment (as needed) 鈥 We may utilize this assessment to clarify a patient鈥檚 diagnosis and help guide our treatment plan.
- Experiential therapy 鈥 This type of therapy incorporates art, music, and recreation to help 亚洲自慰视频ren and teens identify and express their feelings and thoughts.
- 亚洲自慰视频y living groups 鈥 In these group sessions, we will discuss how food, diet, and exercise impact your 亚洲自慰视频 or teen鈥檚 mental and physical health.
Admissions Process for Youth Inpatient 亚洲自慰视频
Before we admit your 亚洲自慰视频 or adolescent into our Youth Inpatient 亚洲自慰视频 program, he or she will receive a clinical assessment to determine the level of care that is appropriate based upon:
- the potential risk your 亚洲自慰视频 or adolescent presents to themselves or others, and
- whether your 亚洲自慰视频 or adolescent has adequate protective factors to keep him or her safe outside of a secure environment.
Anyone can refer a 亚洲自慰视频 or adolescent to the our Youth Inpatient 亚洲自慰视频 program. Referrals commonly come from:
- parents,
- doctors or pediatricians,
- teachers or school administrators,
- coaches,
- emergency room physicians, and
- others concerned about a 亚洲自慰视频 or teen鈥檚 safety.
Walk-in admissions are also welcome. Adolescents can be assessed for admissions regardless of whether or not their parent or guardian is present. We will do everything we can to locate the adolescent's parents or guardians and involve them in the process for admission and ongoing care.
Some 亚洲自慰视频ren and adolescents do not meet our criteria for inpatient treatment. In those cases, we will work with parents and other community support members to help 亚洲自慰视频ren and adolescents get the residential or outpatient care they need.
Wait Time for Inpatient Treatment
There is no wait time to be admitted to our inpatient treatment program. However, the availability of the program can vary depending on how many patients are currently seeking treatment. Our team works hard to ensure that we have a physician, staff, and available space to admit every 亚洲自慰视频 or adolescent who needs inpatient care for mental health services.
Cost of Treatment
Most of the mental health treatments offered in our Youth Inpatient 亚洲自慰视频 program is covered by insurance. For patients without access to insurance coverage, we have financial counselors available who will work with you to find options for financial aid or other ways to pay for the treatment. We partner with insurance providers and payers, as well as community groups, to ensure that every adolescent and 亚洲自慰视频 who needs treatment is able to access care.
What to Expect When Your Teen or Child Is Admitted for Inpatient Therapy & Treatment
Each patient鈥檚 experience in our program varies because individualized care plans are tailored to our patient's needs. Our goal is to help your 亚洲自慰视频 or teenager overcome a current crisis and move forward with improved mental health.
Average Length of Stay
The average length of stay in our youth mental health inpatient treatment facility is approximately seven to nine days. A stay could be longer or shorter depending on the patient鈥檚 safety and readiness to be discharged.
Checking In
We require parent or guardian involvement during the intake process. Upon arrival, they will be greeted by an admitting staff member who will walk them through admission paperwork and obtain signatures giving Huntsman Mental 亚洲自慰视频 Institute consent to provide treatment. This process will take approximately 20 minutes. Once the admission paperwork is completed, the 亚洲自慰视频 and parent or guardian will be escorted to the treatment unit and introduced to the inpatient nursing staff. The remainder of the intake process will include unit orientation, nursing assessment, and history and physical.
Most 亚洲自慰视频ren or teens in the inpatient program will have a single-occupancy room (no roommate), if available. However, there are situations when a 亚洲自慰视频 or teenager benefits from having a roommate. For example, if being alone would impact treatment.
Upon arriving for check-in, we recommend limiting the number of belongings you bring to keep the units safe and make your 亚洲自慰视频 feel comfortable.
Items the patient may need include:
- three days鈥 worth of comfortable clothing that adheres to the unit guidelines;
- comfortable outdoor/athletic shoes;
- toiletries;
- soft bound books (paperback);
- comforts of home: pictures, pillow or blanket, stuffed animal, etc.; or
- non-electronic leisure activities such as puzzles, soft bound books, and coloring.
Items that are not allowed include (but not limited to):
- clothing with hoods,
- clothing with drawstrings, and
- any items with metal.
Our team will review things that are not allowed (for privacy or other reasons). If your 亚洲自慰视频 or teen has those things, we will send them home with you or another family member.
Daily Programs
A typical day during inpatient treatment may include the following programs:
- individual therapy,
- group therapy,
- family therapy,
- patient and family assessments,
- health and wellness activities, and
- experiential therapies.
It鈥檚 important for parents or caregivers to be involved in these therapies as much as possible. We recognize that many families have other things they need to attend to during the time their 亚洲自慰视频 or teenager is in inpatient treatment, such as work or caring for other 亚洲自慰视频ren. We will do our best to accommodate the schedules of parents and caregivers.
Day of Discharge
When a 亚洲自慰视频 or teenager completes their inpatient program, we provide them with a clear discharge plan, which may include:
- recommendation and instructions to enter a residential treatment program, day treatment program, or intensive outpatient program (IOP),

- ongoing individual, family, and/or group therapy appointments.
