Our psychiatric rehabilitation program at A&E Healthcare Services Inc. is dedicated to establishing high standards in behavioral and mental health care. We focus on creating a supportive environment that fosters hope and empowerment for individuals seeking assistance.
Our Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program (PRP) for Children and Adolescents enhances mental health services by identifying each child’s strengths, skills, and needs. This time-limited program offers individual and group activities at our facility, the child’s home, or community locations.
Services are family-focused and tailored to leverage the strengths of both the child and their family. Rehabilitation goals are developed with input from mental health professionals and family discussions. PRP staff regularly assess progress and provide monthly reports to the primary therapist and other involved mental health professionals.
