Senior Behavioral Health

Senior adults and their caregivers have unique problems and needs. Physical decline, loss of independence, safety concerns, and multiple losses are just a few that require special attention and are contributory to depression and other mental health issues.
Bayou Bend Health System's Senior Behavioral Health Service is an outpatient program that provides individualized treatment for older adults who suffer from emotional, behavioral, or mental health disorders. Patients are provided with intensive outpatient treatment in the least restrictive environment and return home each afternoon.
Who Could Benefit from Treatment?
- Someone whose quality of life has been diminished by physical or emotional stressors
- Someone who has not progressed or benefited sufficiently in less intensive treatment settings
- Someone whose mental health is declining and might require inpatient care unless treatment is provided
