On Saturdays, the families of both current and former patients are invited to participate in the Family Program, from 10:00 A.M. until 2:00 P.M. It is during this time that families of our patients can get some education and some support for their own concerns. There is a break in this session to permit, with therapist approval, patients to have lunch with their family members in attendance.

In addition to this weekly session, each Primary Therapist is experienced in working with family members. Every effort is made to keep them apprised of their loved one’s progress and continuing-care plans, with the patient’s understanding and consent, of course. Family members that are in the area are always encouraged to participate in family sessions with the identified patient and the Primary Therapist.
