Inpatient Psychiatric Care

Some mental illnesses reach a point where care at home is no longer safe or enough. When symptoms become severe, such as losing touch with reality, not eating or sleeping, harming oneself or others, or refusing all treatment, a period of hospital care can bring stability quickly and safely.

At SIMHAR, our inpatient wards provide round-the-clock, psychiatrist-led care in a calm, secure and structured setting. Every patient is assessed on admission and given an individual treatment plan, reviewed regularly as they improve.

What it includes

• Daily review by psychiatrists, with 24-hour nursing supervision
• Medication management, carefully started and monitored
• Individual and group therapy with clinical psychologists
• A structured daily routine of activities, rest and recreation
• Physical health monitoring alongside psychiatric care
• Regular updates and counselling sessions for families

Conditions we treat

• Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders
• Bipolar disorder and acute mania
• Severe depression, including with suicidal thoughts
• Severe anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder
• Postpartum and other acute psychiatric conditions
• Behavioural and psychiatric problems in older adults

Working with families

Families are part of recovery. We explain the diagnosis, the treatment and what to expect in plain language, and prepare you to support your loved one after they go home.

After discharge

Leaving hospital is the start of recovery, not the end. Before discharge, we agree a follow-up plan that may include outpatient review, counselling, our Post-treatment Ayurvedic Wellness Programme, or step-down rehabilitation for those who need more time to rebuild daily life.
