The goal of treatment is normalization of weight, eating, and attitudes towards weight/eating and concurrent management of co-morbid features. The 12 bed inpatient unit provides 24 hour care to those individuals who are severely medically compromised. The day hospital program provides an enhanced and continuous monitoring of the medical safety of patients who suffer from severe eating disorders. These patients participate in integration with inpatient activities such as groups and meal supervision (up to 4 times per day, 7 days a week).
