Who We Treat
At Aurora Charter Oak, we care for adults and adolescents who are facing acute mental health or substance use challenges. Inpatient treatment becomes essential when symptoms are severe, safety is at risk, or outpatient therapy no longer provides enough support. This level of care offers a safe space for stabilization and helps individuals regain control of their mental and emotional well-being.
For adults, inpatient care often addresses conditions such as depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, psychosis, and substance-related disorders. Adolescents may face similar challenges, including trauma, emotional dysregulation, or co-occurring substance use. Each patient receives personalized attention from the moment they arrive, ensuring their unique needs are understood and addressed.
Dual Diagnosis Inpatient Rehab
Our dual-diagnosis program supports patients managing both psychiatric and substance use concerns. Whether you are an adult looking for a path forward or a parent seeking help for your child, our inpatient mental health facility is equipped to provide comprehensive care with compassion and expertise.
Our Comprehensive Treatment Approach
Inpatient care at Aurora Charter Oak is built around personalized treatment and a team approach. Every patient begins with a thorough evaluation, allowing our team to create a care plan that supports immediate stabilization and long-term recovery goals.
Throughout their stay, patients engage in a variety of therapeutic activities designed to address emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges. Group therapy sessions offer connection and shared learning, while individual counseling provides space to work through personal struggles. Family therapy is also an integral part of our approach, giving loved ones the tools to support healing at home.
Medication management is available for patients who need additional clinical support. Our psychiatrists and nursing staff work closely with each individual to ensure medications are aligned with their care plan and adjusted as needed. We believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms, which is why we also offer recreational activities, expressive therapies, and holistic approaches that support both emotional and physical well-being.
Each care plan evolves as every patient progresses. Our multidisciplinary team continually assesses treatment goals, making adjustments to ensure the right level of care is provided at every stage. Discharge planning begins early, with case managers coordinating follow-up care and support services to help each patient transition smoothly after their inpatient stay.
