Mental Health Facilities in New Jersey

Capitol Care, Inc. is a CARF accredited agency and is licensed by the Division of Mental Health and Human Services.

Our Mission:

Capitol Care is committed to safely providing positive and supportive quality care promoting individual recovery and community wellness.

Introduction:

Capitol Care Inc., New Jersey Behavioral Health company,  has been a pioneer in helping individuals achieve wellness through the supports of quality staff and the development of interpersonal supports since 1998. Through its evolution, Capitol Care has worked to develop its comprehensive recovery program based upon the beliefs that informed choice, personal empowerment, advocacy of the inclusionary rights of all people and responsible and flexible supports are essential when working with a person with a psychiatric disability. Therefore, the program utilizes a bio-psych-social paradigm emphasizing the strengths of each individual and enhancing his/her sense of personal development to achieve the highest degree of ability possible. Capitol Care has a vested interest in providing its services to a wide range of adult clientele (18 or over) including those who have been resistant to previous services, have chronic mental health hospitalizations or have had difficulty with substance misuse. Capitol Care provides the structure and intensity found in inpatient psychiatric programs but meets the needs of those who do not require 24 hour inpatient care.

Capitol Care also values the importance of the interconnectedness between an individual and his/her community and thereby assists the individual in identifying and utilizing natural supports systems and community resources outside of Capitol Care to enhance overall wellness.

The Treatment Program:

To achieve our mission, Capitol Care offers a full range of services to meet the distinct and complex needs of our clients. These services include the provision of services through the case management of each client, recreational activities, prevocational management, clinically intensive group processes and psychiatric monitoring and care. Through the procurement of such services, the Capitol Care client is provided a structured, clinically intensive, person centered treatment milieu. Capitol Care offers co-occurring services Monday through Friday 8:00 am to 12:10 pm.

The Capitol Care client develops an individualized recovery plan through working with a comprehensive treatment team including an intake coordinator, program director, team of professional case managers at the Bachelors and Master’s level, a Board-Certified Psychiatrist, addictions counselor, as well as a professionally trained team of group facilitators to address everyday clinical, inter and intrapersonal psychiatric and behavioral issues. Client’s length of stay at the program vary depending on the client’s needs but would not span over two years total.
