Our adult psychiatric program was developed to meet the ever-increasing need within the North Sound area, for behavioral health community-based, inpatient psychiatric services. This environment of care is embedded in the Kirkland, Everett and Monroe campuses. As a community-based behavioral health program, there are both voluntary and involuntarily detained patients who are experiencing a wide spectrum of psychiatric conditions requiring a secure, evidenced-based, short term 24-hour care. These conditions may range from depression to disturbances of thought. As with all of our adult psychiatric programs, we use a multidisciplinary behavioral health approach for assessment, treatment, and discharge planning.
