Blake 11 is a 24 bed, locked, inpatient psychiatric unit. The inpatient service provides diagnostic evaluations, brief inpatient treatment, and care to an adult population of patients with primary psychiatric disorders. Also as a tertiary health care provider, the service accepts referrals for diagnostically complex or treatment resistant patients. Patients with concomitant medical and neurological disorders and a primary psychiatric disorder are also treated. With primary nursing as our model of care delivery, staff nurses provide individual and group psychotherapy, behavioral management, medication management and education to our patients. Our mission is abatement of acute symptoms, through evaluation and appropriate disposition, generally after a 10-day stay.
