Our specialists at the UCI Health Neuropsychiatric Center use a variety of therapies in helping patients back to recovery. These include group therapy, occupational therapy and music therapy. Treatment may also include a closely-monitored medication plan. Additionally, a highly trained, compassionate nursing staff provides patient care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Our adult inpatient services offer two types of inpatient units. Both units treat patients 18 years and older:
- The Adult Psychiatric Unit provides treatment and diagnosis to adults in the midst of an acute mental health crisis.
- The Medical Psychiatric Unit is especially designed for psychiatric patients who have also been diagnosed with a severe medical illness. This unit accepts patients who may be on dialysis, require wound care or need intravenous or tube feeding.
