Inpatient Eating Disorders Program
The inpatient eating disorder program at Rogers Memorial Hospital
offers hospitalization for male and female adults who require
brief intensive treatment in an acute setting. The focus of inpatient
hospitalization is medical stabilization and transition to a structured
but less intensive level of care. This program is located within our Adult Services unit with its own designated dining and community areas.
