Psychiatry Department A is intended for women only. The service is provided to female patients experiencing a wide range of mental health conditions with varying degrees of severity. Our focus is on providing support for childbirth-related issues, and hospitalization for mothers and their babies is an option. Additional emphasis is given to the treatment of severe anxiety problems, with behavioral therapies in cases of severe obsessive-compulsive disorder.
During the hospitalization, our interdisciplinary team conducts a comprehensive assessment of the mental, physical, and functional condition of each patient and creates an individualized treatment plan. The interdisciplinary team comprises psychiatrists, highly skilled nurses with extensive clinical and academic training, psychologists, and social counselors.
Our team of psychologists is here to meet a range of patient and family needs. We offer individual psychological treatment, family intervention, couple therapy, and parent guidance. Additionally, we host therapeutic groups for our hospitalized patients in our department, guided by our team of psychologists.
The social counselors organize an afternoon social activity that includes a group dedicated to enhancing social skills, a walking group, and art groups. The counselors receive ongoing and comprehensive guidance from our department’s team of psychologists.
