Psychiatric & Addiction Treatment Program for Seniors

Rolling Hills Hospital offers specialized inpatient treatment for senior adults who are struggling with mental health concerns. By providing age-appropriate care, we can meet seniors where they are on their journey toward better health. 

Program Overview

Mental health conditions affect everyone differently. Rolling Hills Hospital offers superior care for senior adults who are living with concerns that often become more complex as we age.   

Just like the other programs at Rolling Hills Hospital, our senior program delivers personalized care that meets the needs of each patient who comes to us for care. During your time with us, you’ll work with a team of compassionate professionals that may include:  

  • Psychologists 
  • Nurses 
  • Licensed therapists 
  • Social workers  
  • Mental health technicians 
  • Recreational therapists 

 Average length of stay in our senior inpatient program is 10-18 days, but a patient’s actual length of stay depends on their needs and level of stability.

  • Alzheimer’s disease

  • Bipolar disorder 
  • Anxiety disorders

Aspects of Care

During your time with us, you can participate in a variety of therapeutic interventions that are designed to improve cognitive functioning, expand coping skills, and help you live your life to the fullest. 

 Activities you may participate in include:  

  • Individual therapy 
  • Group therapy

Each patient receives basic medical care on a daily basis and medication management services twice weekly. Rolling Hills Hospital employs experienced physicians, nurse practitioners, and certified nurses’ aides who are always on hand to address any preexisting health concerns and anything else that may arise over the course of your time with us. 

We constantly assess and monitor each senior adult in our care to determine if there is a need for an alternative placement or extended care in a nursing home setting. In the event that a transfer to another healthcare provider is appropriate, Rolling Hills Hospital works with other service providers, the patient, and their family to decide the most effective option for continued care. 

Prior to discharge, each patient receives a detailed aftercare plan that may include recommendations for continuing care, community resources, and more. 

 

We feel like we got our daughter back after she received treatment at Rolling Hills. The doctors and staff took great care of her.
