Inpatient Eating Disorders Treatment Services for Adolescents

Adolescents in need of medical stabilization or highly structured 24-hour care to interrupt eating disorder behaviors are treated in our inpatient adolescent program. This program incorporates evidence-based treatments to prepare adolescents and families for the lower levels of care that gradually increase family involvement in meal coaching and supervision. The aim is to provide families a sense of mastery and support in transitioning their child to a lower level of treatment or back home.
