Residential Treatment Program
The Eating Disorder Center at Rogers Memorial Hospital offers
intensive residential treatment and separate programs for both
males and females. Our treatment approach encourages self-empowerment
through a multidisciplinary program with comprehensive therapies.
Residential care is a cost-effective treatment alternative to
either inpatient or outpatient care. The program is available
at approximately one-third the daily cost of the average inpatient
program while being as clinically intensive as inpatient.
