What is River Crest Hospital like?
River Crest Hospital probably is not like your
preconceived notion of how a psychiatric hospital looks or
feels. The quiet, peaceful setting provides a therapeutic
environment that’s very conducive to recovery.
What happens when I get there?
You will have an initial evaluation with a member of our
staff to see if hospitalization is indicated. We gladly
answer all your questions. If you are admitted, we recommend
you authorize release of information to the therapist or
doctor who may have referred you.
How long will I stay?
The length of your stay is determined by your needs, so
the answer can range from a few days to a few weeks. Your
custom treatment plan focuses on what can be accomplished in
the shortest period of time.
What about my job?
Your time spent in the hospital most likely will be
treated no differently than if you had been hospitalized for
a medical or surgical condition. If you have an employee
assistance counselor, we suggest you discuss your treatment
with them.
Can my family visit?
Families and loved ones provide much needed support and
comfort, so it is important for them to participate in
active treatment. Although designated times are set for
visiting hours, we always try to work with families to
accommodate scheduling needs.
