Mental Hospital Treatment, Residential Mental Health & the Step-Down Path

Mental hospital treatment is hospital-level inpatient psychiatry for acute crises (safety concerns, psychosis, rapid deterioration). After stabilization, many transition to residential mental health (24/7 therapeutic residence) and then to Partial Hospitalization (PHP), IOP, and weekly outpatient therapy to rebuild routines and prevent relapse.
