 Our Inpatient Psychiatric Unit -- at Bryn Mawr Hospital -- is an acute care facility offering private psychiatric treatment in a secure, comfortable setting.
Patients with a wide variety of psychiatric disorders are treated by a multidisciplinary treatment team. Our staff is trained
to assess and treat most acute psychiatric illnesses, with the goal of helping the individual return to normal functioning
and reclaim his or her life in the community. Patients who are abusing alcohol or other drugs in addition to having a psychiatric
disorder can participate in our Dual-Diagnosis Treatment Program.
Treatment Team
The treatment team consists of Board-Certified Psychiatrists and Internists, a Psychologist, Registered Nurses, Mental Health
Technicians, Licensed Social Workers, Certified Addiction Counselors, and Art and Recreation Therapists. With a patient's
permission, a patient's family physician is advised of his or her admission and included in the discharge planning.
Treatment
Treatment begins with comprehensive psychiatric and physical evaluations. A customized program is then developed which may
include:
- Medication Management and Education
- Creative/Expressive Therapy
- Activity Therapy
- Individual and Group Counseling
- Dual Diagnosis Groups
- Family Support
- Aftercare Planning
Admission
A referral for evaluation and possible admission can be made by calling 1-888-CARE-898. Treatment at our inpatient psychiatric
unit is covered by most insurance plans. Our intake coordinators will provide specific information about reimbursement issues.
