Learn about Pathways treatment at Pathways . , What to Expect When Attending the Day Program The Psychiatric Day Hospital features many of the same types of therapy as the inpatient program, but patients go home at night. If you've been released from the inpatient unit, it's a good step-down program. Adults attend daily sessions from 9 am until 3:30 pm, and adolescents attend from 8 am to 2:30 pm. We use many of the same therapies as in-hospital patients, and patients who have been with us can continue with their work. We create a tailored treatment plan for each person. How long they stay depends on their unique needs. Whenever possible, we invite family members and support systems to take part in the treatment and healing process. What to Expect During Outpatient Therapy For those who are ready to step down again, we offer intensive outpatient therapy. Adults and adolescents come three days a week, 4 hours a day. We also offer more traditional outpatient therapy and medication management. This involves regular appointments with a therapist or psychiatrist, but not daily or multiple times a week. What to Expect During Your Inpatient Stay The average length of stay in the inpatient unit is 5 to 7 days. However, all stays are individualized and based on clinical criteria for admission and continuing stay. Our team uses a variety of therapies, depending on what you need. The focus is on stabilizing people and helping them start—or restart—their journey toward healing. After being assessed by a psychiatrist and other care team members, inpatients may do a variety of therapies, such as: One-on-one and group therapy Activity and occupational therapy Art therapy Family therapy Pet therapy Treatment with medication Goal setting and practice developing social skills Assessments for mental and physical health Psychological testing, As soon as an individual is admitted to the inpatient program, in partnership with the patient and their support system, we begin planning for discharge. We want to make sure that you are set up to continue down the path of healing and recovery when you leave here. As appropriate, we invite your therapist or any other mental health providers you see to be part of discharge planning. That way, you'll have continuity of care available to you upon discharge. Our social worker can work with you and your support systems to help connect you with the resources you will need, whether it be housing, job training/employment, or financial assistance. Your discharge occurs when you no longer need an acute hospital level of care. Part of the discharge planning process is to help determine what next level of service you will most benefit from. That may include group therapy, individual therapy, or other services., A Space of Light, Healing, and Hope We designed the McNew Family Medical Center with both safety and aesthetics in mind. We created a secure environment where patients feel safe and family members know their loved one is receiving top-notch care, 24/7. But just as important, it's a beautiful, light-filled space that buzzes with positivity. Mental health issues can feel dark and chaotic. The building attempts to counter that with an abundance of natural light and rooms that radiate peace. Your Room All rooms are private rooms. Each is equipped with a private bathroom and shower. The rooms are safe and secure but are designed to feel comfortable. There are home-like touches throughout, including wood cabinetry, built-in desks, and artwork. Windows provide natural light, but are outfitted with safe internal blinds to control the light., We keep both your body and brain nourished while you're here. We try to take care of as many details as possible so that you can focus on healing. Meals for inpatients and day program We provide three meals a day, plus snacks, for inpatients. We also provide lunch and snacks for those who come to the day program. Educational support For adolescents in our Psychiatric Day Hospital, we offer support with schoolwork, to help students keep up with their work during treatment. Spiritual care Inpatients are able to have visits from a spiritual leader associated with their faith., We welcome visitors to the building who have a reason to be there. These visitors include family members and significant others who are involved with treatment, assuming the patient's agreement. These visits are usually in the evenings and on weekends, but we can make accommodations as needed.Behavioral Health, Substance Abuse, Inpatient Psychiatric Care, Inpatient Therapy for Substance Abuse, Outpatient Therapy for Mental Health, Outpatient Therapy for Substance Abuse, Depression and Anxiety, Adventure Therapy

Whether you have mild discomfort or severe pain, we can help.What Is Osteoarthritis?When you have osteoarthritis, the cartilage "cushion" between the bones in one of your joints is wearing away. Normal aging or an earlier injury, like a torn knee ligament, can cause it. Stress from excess body weight also speeds up this loss. Your genes play a role, too, as "weak" cartilage runs in some families. According to the Centers for Disease Control, more than 32.5 million U.S. adults are living with osteoarthritis.As the cartilage breaks down, the body releases substances that cause pain, stiffness and swelling. In fact, the name arthritis comes from a Greek word that means "disease of the joint." Severe cartilage loss causes pain in another way, too. Without enough of it to keep bones in the joint from gliding against each other smoothly, bone grinds against bone.At Luminis Health, we offer a full range of non-surgical treatments to help you manage arthritis and joint pain. We can also recommend ways to keep the damage from getting worse.
