Our Mission
At Oakwood Treatment Center, it’s our mission to preserve a young person’s relationship with their family and community. Teaching and encouraging residents to become resilient, capable people is our utmost focus.
Through our work, we treat teens in an intensive treatment environment that is designed to make a measurable difference and empower them with tools for a healthy and stable life.
We are grounded by the core principles of trauma-informed care, including:

Safety

Trustworthiness and Transparency

Peer Support

Collaboration and Mutuality

Empowerment, Voice and Choice

Recognition of Cultural, Historical and Gender Issues
Our Care Philosophy
Our individualized care plans focus on the integration of residents’ lives outside our walls. Visits with family, therapists and other guests are built into every resident’s schedule with the goal of fostering stability and accelerating reintegration with their families and communities.
Innovative Approach
As the next generation of mental health services for young people, we believe in evidenced-based care and investments in innovative technology that can improve quality of care and treatment efficiency.
Ideal Length of Stay
The typical length-of-stay for short-term residential treatment is the perfect alternative to the “too short” psychiatric hospital stay and the “too long” residential treatment stay. Teens have enough time to make progress without losing time with their family and community unnecessarily.
Continuity of Education
We believe a young person’s education should not be disrupted by treatment. We offer accredited education programs to meet every grade level, ensuring residents stay on track with their studies throughout treatment.
Communication and Transparency
Residents’ families and designated caretakers have an open line of communication with our clinical care teams, as well as access to information related to the teen’s progress throughout the treatment plan.
