Treatment for Adults

It’s hard to admit that you might be suffering from a psychiatric illness or addiction issue. But with mental health at the forefront of wellness dialogue in the United States, it’s easier to ask for help and admit that you may have a problem.

The experienced team of behavioral health professionals at West Hills Behavioral Health Hospital is here to help you start your recovery journey. We offer psychiatric adult inpatient services and chemical dependency treatment for adults ages 18 and older. Whether you’re looking for an inpatient program or intensive outpatient services, our team will put together an individualized treatment plan based on your needs and goals.

Acute Inpatient Psychiatric Care for Adults

The acute inpatient psychiatric services at West Hills Behavioral Health Hospital offer support and guidance for adults struggling with a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and mental health issues. Our inpatient mental health hospital provides several adult inpatient psychiatric care services that can help with depression, trauma, dissociative disorders, substance use disorders and more.  

Acute inpatient hospitalization is the most intensive level of care, providing 24-hour skilled nursing observation, daily interventions, oversight by a psychiatrist, and intensive, highly coordinated treatment by a physician-led team of mental health professionals for patients with severe psychiatric disorders. Inpatient hospitalization is always short-term and designed to quickly stabilize the most severe symptoms to allow a quick transition to less intensive levels of care.

Also, Dual diagnosis programs are available for patients with a secondary substance abuse diagnosis.

Substance Abuse Treatment

It’s hard to know where to turn for help when you or a loved one has a substance abuse problem. The staff of behavioral health professionals at West Hills Behavioral Health Hospital is here to offer guidance. We have many programs to help adults and loved ones recover from their substance abuse issues and alcohol/drug addiction.

West Hills Behavioral Health Hospital has a comprehensive addiction treatment option for people struggling with substance dependency and alcohol/drug abuse. Addiction to substances such as alcohol or prescription drugs is a serious issue that many people face. West Hills Behavioral Health Hospital encourages you or your loved one to seek help in a monitored environment. Many people are not aware that individuals can have serious and dangerous medical side effects when trying to become sober on their own.

Intensive Outpatient Programs

Some patients will be able to transition directly into more traditional therapy appointments with other northern Nevada adult mental health providers. For others, there will need to be more frequency and structure around their outpatient treatment. For those patients, we recommended stepping into our Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP). 

Sometimes traditional outpatient individual therapy and weekly visits are not enough to help a person through their mental health problems or substance abuse problems. When a person needs more personalized outpatient care, additional oversight and management, treatment programs at an IOP hospital may be the right solution. Our integrated treatment and services are designed to provide a smooth transition from inpatient to home or to help prevent the need for inpatient admission.
