Supportive services and resources for mental health needs

Sometimes, you might need help dealing with life’s stressors. Depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and other mental health conditions can make the hurdles we face every day even more challenging. If you’re experiencing an increased need for support, our mental health partial hospitalization program in Minnesota can help.

The DayBridge program at Regions Hospital and the Park Nicollet Specialty Center is a partial hospitalization program (PHP) designed to provide a stable, comfortable environment for healing and rehabilitation. We can help you find ways to manage everyday stressors, explore and practice new coping strategies, and develop recovery goals to continue your healing process.

DayBridge is a recognized leader in providing diagnoses, mental health treatment and crisis intervention services. Our patient-centered approach means that you’ll receive the latest evidence-based treatment, built from your preferences, needs and goals. Our expert team of mental health and complementary specialists will support you every step of the way.

To ensure that the program is a good fit for you, we require a referral from a mental health professional or medical practitioner.

A partial hospitalization program, also called a PHP, helps adults manage mental health symptoms. The goal of the program is to help people improve their daily functioning and achieve a higher quality of life through education, coping skills, peer support and medication management.

At the DayBridge program, our goal is to make a difference in people’s lives. Our programs at Regions Hospital and the Park Nicollet Specialty Center are both accredited by the Joint Commission, meaning that we’ve undergone rigorous evaluations to prove our commitment to high-quality care and patient safety. We’re also part of the integrated HealthPartners care system, giving us easy access to outstanding care professionals and resources to meet every participant’s needs during and after the program.

DayBridge takes a multidisciplinary, collaborative approach to improving mental health. In the program, you’ll set your own goals and pursue them with the help of a wide variety of experienced specialists dedicated to improving how you feel in your body, mind and spirit. You’ll also build community with other program participants through structured group activities focused on sensory interventions, learning through practice and creating a true sense of safety.

Five days a week, starting at 9 a.m., you’ll participate in structured groups led by experienced and caring PHP specialists and staff. Each location is designed to be comfortable and peaceful, with dedicated spaces for physical activity and relaxation.

You’ll also meet one-on-one with a member of your care team for medication management up to three times each week. We encourage you to involve family and friends in your care planning so they can support you throughout your recovery.

Your therapy programs will be tailored to your needs and goals, but we’ll focus on helping you:

• Reduce stress by drawing upon your strengths and available resources for healing
• Develop effective ways to handle thoughts, feelings and behaviors
• Manage medications
• Increase awareness of sensory preferences and strategies
• Boost relationship and problem-solving skills so you can reach your personal goals
• Increase overall wellness through diet, movement and other daily practices

In order to be evaluated for entry into the program, DayBridge requires a referral from a mental health professional or medical practitioner. To learn more about the program, download the Regions client information flyer or the Park Nicollet client information flyer (PDF).
