Randal Wellness Center is a mental health treatment program center for senior adults providing intensive outpatient treatment to individuals who suffer from psychiatric, emotional, or behavioral disorders. The Texas counties established as our geographic service area are Archer, Baylor, Foard, Haskell, Knox, Throckmorton, Wichita, Wilbarger, and Young.
Why is Randal Wellness Center important to our community?
Health care professionals have determined that mental health and emotional problems decrease one’s ability to cope with the natural aging process. This program was developed to provide service to individuals and families in learning to cope with issues related to aging, loss, and changes in physical health. The program offers patients the opportunity to improve their quality of life by reducing their distress and increasing their ability to function independently.
How are treatment services provided?
Randal Wellness Center offers psychiatric evaluation and intervention designed to improve the quality of life for patients and their families. Our Board Certified Geriatric Psychiatrist, in collaboration with the patient’s primary care physician, will provide diagnostic services and recommend appropriate treatment prior to admission into the program.
Treatment approaches are developed to meet the unique needs of senior adults and the individual needs of each patient. Supervised by the psychiatrist, treatment services are provided by our professional staff including a Licensed Master Social Worker, Licensed Professional Counselors, qualified nursing staff, and mental health technicians.
Patients are treated in the least restrictive environment and are able to return to their home or primary residence each afternoon. Our professional staff provides assistance with group and individual sessions in a supervised setting while educating patients and families regarding mental health issues.
Caregivers, families, and primary care physicians are encouraged to participate in the therapeutic process by assisting with the identification of problems and solutions addressed in treatment
