Phone Guidelines

There are payphones on the Adult and Adolescent Units (the Adolescent Unit payphone does not accept incoming calls - outgoing calls only). Children use the phone at the nurses’ desk to talk with their families, guardians, and others. The child’s therapist will help the child decide who to call.

  • To respect the interests of each patient, phone calls are limited to 10 minutes.
  • Calls coming in during group sessions will be returned in order to not disturb the group.
  • A patient who needs a longer call or a call during group time can make plans with their therapist.
