About

The Brook Hospital Dupont provides treatment for children (ages 5-12) and adults (18+) Our child programs are designed for children (ages 5-12) who are experiencing problems with psychiatric illnesses and/or emotional problems. Through our multidisciplinary team approach, we provide the highest level of direct patient care that is possible, which includes physical, social, spiritual, medical and psychotherapeutic treatment interventions. Our adult programs offer psychiatric and substance abuse treatment for adults, 18 and older. Prior to admission into one of our adult units, a clinician will conduct an assessment—evaluating the patient’s mental, physical and spiritual needs—to determine the most appropriate level of care. Our team, led by the attending psychiatrist, develops an individual treatment plan for each patient and meets regularly to review each patient’s progress and to update treatment goals. Family members are also invited to participate in treatment team and family sessions.
