What Is Psychiatric Rehabilitation?

Psychiatric rehabilitation encompasses a range of programs. They share the goal of helping people with serious mental illness successfully manage the symptoms of their illness and develop independent living skills.

Our psychiatric rehabilitation day programs promote independent living skills through intensive daily support. Programs are conveniently located in counties throughout the state of Maryland.

In the evenings, patients return home. At home, they get hands-on practice using the skills they learn during the day.

Why Choose Healthy Mind Foundation?

The Joint Commission accredits Healthy Mind Foundation’s psychiatric rehabilitation programs. All of our programs are approved or licensed by the Maryland Department of Health, the Behavioral Health Administration, and local government agencies.

We offer primary care support to people with a mental illness or substance abuse disorder. Our psychiatric day program offers wide-ranging services to support individuals with mental illness in reaching a higher level of independence.
