[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in the Baltimore area and Shepard Pratt is considered the go-to for inpatient stuff, as far as I've heard, and I believe they have pediatric units... Hopkins also absolutely has a peds inpatient psych unit because I used to work at Hopkins and it was the floor below where I worked.  (This was 6 years ago so theoretically it was eliminated, but I doubt it) [/quote]

We were thinking Hopkins as well given its overall excellent medical school. Does Hopkins have a facility to treat eating disorder and co-occurring symptoms for children or is it only a child psych unit? We were told that there was not a separate child ED program, but that the activities were more adult focused, which are not appropriate for 11-12 year olds. Any insight? Thanks.[/quote]

Unfortunately, I have heard that Hopkins ED program is not nearly as strong as most of the rest of their programs. Everyone I know has some nightmare stories about it (none of them were as young as 12 when they went,though). It sounds very similar to Sheppard Pratt’s program (which is not a good thing!).[/quote]
