Psychiatric Units
Psychiatric units are specialized hospital areas dedicated to mental health treatment. They provide a safe environment where individuals experiencing severe psychiatric symptoms—such as depression, anxiety, psychosis, or suicidal thoughts—receive comprehensive care. Staffed by mental health professionals, these units offer therapy, medication management, and support to stabilize and improve mental well-being. The goal is to promote recovery, ensure safety, and help patients develop coping skills. Psychiatric units can be short-term or longer-term, depending on individual needs, and are designed to support patients through acute mental health crises in a secure, structured setting.
