Every patient has the potential for healing
Menninger was founded on the belief that individuals with mental illness can be helped by restoring hope and providing treatment that meets their medical, emotional, social and spiritual needs. These principles will help serve as a guide to us today and will be preserved at The Epicenter.
We successfully treat patients with complex illnesses every day. Here, the patient is the most important member of the treatment team. We empower patients to manage their illnesses and develop relapse prevention strategies, helping them reach their full potential and live healthier lives.
In 2008, 31% of our patients came from Texas, 67% from the remaining states and 2% from foreign countries.
Menninger treatment programs
- Comprehensive Psychiatric Assessment Service—for adults who need a neuropsychiatric assessment and simultaneous treatment to prepare for the next stage of their treatment
- Professionals in Crisis—for adults in the medical, legal, business and religious professions who experience difficulty managing their careers and relationships as a result of mental illness that may be complicated by addiction
- Compass—for young adults ages 18-30 whose psychiatric illnesses prevent them from making a successful transition from adolescence to adulthood
- Hope—for adults with mental illness that has substantially compromised their quality of life
- Adolescent Assessment and Treatment—for adolescents who need a thorough diagnostic assessment and a wide range of therapeutic interventions
- Adolescent Day Treatment Program—a full-day, partial hospital program designed to help families whose teens are struggling with their mental health yet do not require the intensity of a 24-hour hospital.
The Epicenter
As a teaching hospital, Menninger already offers leading-edge treatment by top professionals. At The Epicenter, we'll accelerate collaborations with scientists, researchers, clinical experts, staff and trainees to offer patients the latest treatment advancements.
The Epicenter will give us larger, more flexible patient care and operational facilities. Additional space will accommodate more services that provide continuity of care for patients after discharge and offer functional areas for family visits and educational workshops.
