Day Treatment Programs tend to be helpful to those individuals who require daily involvement in a therapeutic environment for a brief period of time. The programs are an excellent resource for individuals who have been hospitalized, but may require additional support to maintain a reduction in symptoms. In addition, the programs can be used in place of hospitalization for individuals who require more than an occasional therapeutic visit and wish to remain in their own homes.

Day Treatment Programs allow individuals to work out personal issues, practice stress management and coping skills while living at home and interacting with familiar people. Family members and friends can be involved more easily with the individual throughout the treatment process.


Problems addressed in the Day Treatment Programs are:

  • Mental health problems such as:
    Depression, anxiety, bi-polar disorder, schizophrenia, stress or related conditions

  • Medical health problems such as:
    Dialysis, liver monitoring, organ transplant
    potentially life threatening disease such as cancer, diabetes, Parkinson's Disease, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, stroke, chronic or disabling pain
