Steady bipolar care for Rochester patients
Bipolar disorder needs continuity. Rochester patients can keep regular follow-ups by video between in-person visits, which makes it easier to stay on schedule with labs and appointments. If more support is ever needed, we can help connect you with community services such as Community Partners.
Living in Rochester
Rochester residents often have long working days in manufacturing, healthcare and retail, and the drive to Salem takes about an hour. For that reason we set up most Rochester care around secure video visits, keeping in-person appointments for the times they genuinely add something, such as some first evaluations.
Long-term treatment
- Mood stabilizers or other medications chosen with you
- Lab monitoring, such as lithium levels and kidney and thyroid checks, when required
- Regular sleep and daily routines
- A written early-warning plan
- Therapy and support group referrals
