Psychiatric Services
Psychiatry is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental health disorders. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who are qualified to prescribe medication, manage medications, and provide therapy for mental health and substance use disorders.
How psychiatric services work
Rosecrance medical doctors focus on psychiatry and addiction medicine. Our doctors have specific training to address the complexities of medication management applicable to mental health diagnoses and substance use disorders. They regularly collaborate and work closely with counseling staff to provide comprehensive, quality care to each client.
Many people with substance use disorders also experience mental health disorders, so we offer psychiatric evaluation and treatment when needed. Our team will assess your needs while deciding if a referral to a psychiatrist will be helpful. Our residential clients also have access to psychiatric services on campus as well as dual-diagnosis treatment for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders.
Benefits of psychiatric services include accurate diagnosis and treatment of mental health and substance use disorders, reduced symptoms, improved quality of life, and prevention of behavioral health crises.
