Georgetown Behavioral Hospital Releases Guide on How a Continuum of Care for Mental Health Works
Continuum of care refers to services provided after a treatment plan with bundled care options. Examples of this include addiction treatment services from detox to aftercare and mental health treatment services.
This continued care method describes how mental health providers follow a patient from preventative care through diagnosis, therapy, and aftercare. Depending on the patient, this could involve acute care hospitals, residential treatment programs, and other care facilities related to mental health treatment and recovery.
Several therapy types can be received through a continuum of care, including:
• Dialectical behavior therapy or DBT
• Cognitive-behavioral therapy or CBT
• Trauma-informed therapy
• Group therapy sessions
• Peer support groups
• Family therapy
• Medication management
• Comprehensive discharge and aftercare planning
