Comprehensive Psychiatric Assessment & Stabilization

Daily treatment
Patients participating in Comprehensive Psychiatric Assessment & Stabilization (CPAS) engage daily in assessments, groups and other therapeutic interventions.

Patients are strongly encouraged to attend the unit's support groups as this allows for staff to observe interpersonal, social and behavioral patterns. Groups also give patients an opportunity to learn about effective coping strategies, learn about value of treatment and how to make optimal use of treatment as well as interact with other patients with similar challenges.

The following core schedule shows the opportunities available for CPAS patients.
