Services
Lighthouse Care Center provides comprehensive, individualized treatment programs for individuals suffering from mental illness, emotional crisis, and addiction. Our programs provide a structured daily schedule from wake up, through therapy groups, to homework (for adolescents) and evening activities.
With the assistance of the treatment team, each patient develops individual goals focusing on specific issues, which are monitored, reviewed, and changed in response to a patient's progress. The overall goal of the programs is to respond to the individual needs of each patient while bringing about stabilization and reduction of the symptoms presented by the psychiatric illness, in a safe and structured environment. Secondary goals are to provide education and guidance in learning basic coping skills and preparing the resident for a successful transition to the most appropriate level of care, support and independence.
