Here are a few of our very important questions, will be answering:

What does a typical day look like for patients in your intensive outpatient program? What about partial hospitalization?

How might a senior know it’s time to seek mental health assistance? Could you give us some examples of different types of symptoms and what actions would be appropriate to seek the appropriate level of care?

We know that, oftentimes, family members or caregivers for seniors can be the first to notice a mental health challenge developing. What are some of the tools available for caregivers, and how can they help their loved ones access the mental health services they need?
