What aftercare programs are available?
With the restrictions on patient length
of stay and to ensure patient success it has become vital that each patient be
provided appropriate "aftercare". This is a major portion of this hospital's
outpatient programs. When Parkwood does not operate a facility in a location,
contract providers are utilized and other community providers.
Who can refer someone to Parkwood
Hospital?
We welcome referrals by medical or mental
health caregivers, case managers, employee assistance programs, family
members, community agencies, hospitals, clergy, friends and patients
themselves. If you would like further information call our representative at
