Each client’s journey to recovery is unique, and treatment duration varies. On average, we see an average length of stay of 6 weeks at each level of care.

Our inpatient level of care is for clients needing high medical oversight and who may be too medically compromised for traditional residential eating disorder treatment facilities. We provide 24/7 medical, psychiatric, clinical, and nutritional assessment, oversight, and care as well as NG tube feeding and IV hydration if needed. The goal is for the client to be medically stabilized to step down to residential treatment.

Admissions will advise you with the most up to date packing list before you join us. However, here are items to remember:

Clothing: We suggest you bring casual, comfortable clothing as well as layers to accommodate different temperatures. This includes 1-2 weeks’ worth of comfortable clothing, undergarments, pajamas, two sets of clothes for yoga, comfortable shoes, and slippers. Some programs may have a pool, and usage is determined by the local team. Please check with admissions if packing a swimsuit is advised. You will be able to use the laundry facilities weekly.

Medications: Bring at least a 30-day supply of current medications or vitamins in original prescription containers. Our medical provider will write any additional prescriptions as needed. If a medication you take is difficult to find, notify us before admission so we can plan.  

Personal Items: Bring toiletries (e.g., shampoo, conditioner, body wash, deodorant, toothpaste, and brush) and cosmetics you use daily. You may also bring hair styling tools, razors, tweezers, and nail accessories. For the safety of all clients, some items may be held when you are not using them.  

Valuables: Money may be needed for outings when they occur. Bringing a credit card is preferable for your safety, but you may bring a small amount of cash if you do not have access to one.  

Self-Care: Bring things that help ground and comfort you (e.g., musical instruments, coloring books, religious texts, a favorite blanket).  

Technology: You may bring your cell phone, but please note that you will not have access to it unless there is an emergency or potentially until the end of your stay when the team deems it appropriate.  

Personal Identification: You will need a copy of your driver’s license, passport, or other ID card, as well as a copy of your insurance card.

School Materials: Adolescent clients will have school 5 days per week, so bring whatever you need for current courses (e.g., books, laptop, or tablet). We partner with Learn Well to meet your educational needs year-round. You will have access to your laptop or tablet only during school times.  

What NOT to Bring: food items, towels, bedding, sentimental or highly valuable items (e.g., expensive jewelry or electronics). We cannot be responsible for lost items. Please also arrange to be dropped off at the treatment center, as you are not permitted to drive and park your car onsite during the duration of your stay.  

Visitors can bring you additional approved items, or you can purchase additional items online or on outings as needed.

We’re here to help you to be healthy in all aspects of your life, and we applaud you for healing many facets of your health simultaneously.

IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program) and PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program) are both structured mental health treatment programs that offer more intensive care than regular outpatient therapy but differ in intensity and time commitment.

IOP typically involves 3-5 days of programming for around 3-4 hours per day while working with your outpatient providers. This allows clients to maintain their daily routines such as work or school. It focuses on providing support and strategies for managing symptoms while clients live at home.

PHP is more intensive, running from 5-6 days per week for 6 or more hours per day. It provides a higher level of care, but clients return home at the end of the day. PHP is designed for individuals who need significant support but do not require 24-hour supervision.

For Monte Nido programs, the number of days and times may differ slightly by location. For more information reach out to admissions here.

The length of your program is based on several factors, including your specific recovery needs, the severity of the eating disorder, your personalized treatment progress, and the program’s structure at the location you attend.

For some individuals, treatment might be shorter in duration, while others could extend to several months, depending on your progress and treatment goals.

Our adolescent day (PHP and IOP) programs re ideal for teens who are medically stable but who require the structure and support of day treatment. Parents will take on a more active role at this level of care. Family-Based Informed Treatment, used within our adolescent programming, is designed to give parents of adolescent clients a leading role in helping their child reduce disordered eating behaviors, restore weight, and resume proper adolescent development. Our team will support the whole family through family programming, therapy, and resources so you will have the tools to support and sustain your child’s recovery during and after treatment.
