Residential Treatment

Residential Treatment:

Rogers is a comprehensive psychiatric hospital, nationally recognized for specialty residential treatment programs for eating disorders, addiction, obsessive-compulsive disorder and anxiety disorders for children, teens and adults.

Admissions

If the reviewing physician has any concerns about your medical stability, the physician may require you to go to a local emergency room for medical clearance prior to admission to Rogers Memorial. This requirement for medical clearance is required for all eating disorders admissions and may be required for inpatient detoxification admissions if there is a prior history of seizures, cardiac problems or diabetes, or a risk of severe dehydration. Admissions staff will explain what tests are required and, if necessary, direct you to a local hospital emergency room that is familiar with our medical clearance procedures.

Once you arrive at the hospital, an admission specialist will meet with you to answer questions you may have and will verify the reasons that brought you to the hospital. You will be asked to fill out several required admission forms and then will be accompanied to the unit. As with any medical appointment, it is important that you arrive on time for your admission.

Inpatient Hospitalization:
Please note that, for your safety and the safety of other patients, the inpatient units are locked. From this point on, you cannot leave the unit without staff escort. A nurse or psychiatric technician will greet you, and place your belonging in a secure storage area. (Please note that some items will be returned right away, some will need to stay in storage until the staff have assessed your safety level; other items must stay in storage but can be checked out for your use.) A nurse will complete an assessment with you to identify your medical needs. Within the first 24 hours you will meet with members of the treatment team to assess and coordinate your plan of care. The information collected about you will help the staff get a better picture of your situation and help develop a comprehensive treatment plan.

Residential Centers:
A residential counselor will greet you, explain our program in detail and then begin the belongings check (any inappropriate items will be returned to your family or secured by Rogers Memorial staff). During your first week you can expect that a variety of assessments will be conducted by clinical staff to assess and coordinate your plan of care. The gathering of this assessment information directs the development of an individualized treatment plan.

Partial Hospitalization/Day Treatment:
You will be introduced to a member of the treatment team who will describe the schedule and clarify any questions. You then will meet with the treatment team to assess and coordinate your plan of care. The information collected about you will help the staff get a better picture of your situation and help develop a comprehensive treatment plan.

The length of stay is open-ended and has many variables (such as past history, current status and stage of your illness, the support systems in place for continuing care, risk factors, response to treatment, etc.) which is evaluated by the treatment team throughout your stay.

The items that you can and can’t bring vary depending on the level of care. Prior to your arrival, admission staff will go over specific items that are required, optional and prohibited on your program. As part of your admission, a member of the treatment team will thoroughly check all of your belongings shortly after arrival. Any inappropriate items will be returned to you or secured by Rogers staff until discharge. Please note that, to protect the privacy of patients, phones and electronic devices with camera, text messaging, Internet access or audio recording capabilities of any kind are prohibited.

Family members are an important part of treatment and recovery. In many instances, therapy or education sessions that include family members is provided. Please note that only with the patient’s written and verbal consent will we contact identified family members and schedule a telephone or face-to-face session to discuss treatment progress and any recommendations for continuing care following treatment.

Inpatient Hospitalization:

The social worker/counselor works with the individual and her/his family to assess what level of care is needed after the inpatient stay, and then to help make arrangements for that level of care. They will work with the patient and family to anticipate issues that may arise after the inpatient hospitalization, and then help the individual and family develop a plan that best meets that patient’s recovery needs. Families of patients will likely be requested to participate in one to two family sessions during the treatment stay. These sessions are helpful in providing updates of treatment progress, offering the family an opportunity to voice questions and concerns, and discussing follow-up treatment options.

Residential Treatment:

Just as in the inpatient program, families are expected to participate in the treatment process by attending family sessions and group education. Residential care also focuses on developing a thorough discharge plan for when the resident returns home.

Partial Hospitalization (Day Treatment):

Individual and/or family therapy may be recommended in the partial hospitalization program to maximize the gains made during a stay at our hospital. If you and/or your family members currently work with an outpatient therapist, that person will continue to be the primary provider of individual or family therapy. We will work closely with these outpatient providers to develop a continuing care plan for you or your family member. If you and/or your family do not currently have an outpatient therapist, our staff will be more than happy to offer referrals to appropriate providers.
