Families
At Eagle View Behavioral Health, we know how vital family support can be and the important role it can play in getting treatment for a loved one.
Seeing a family member or loved one in need or struggling with a mental health condition can be a frightening and heartbreaking experience. We want to be a resource for those located throughout Middleton and the surrounding regions.
How You Can Help
If you are a family member or friend of someone in need of help, consider the following approaches:
EXPLAIN
Explain to the person your reason for concern in a caring manner while staying calm.
OFFER OPTIONS
Offer options. If the person does not want help today, ask if they would consider getting help in the near future.
OFFER SUPPORT
Offer them support by volunteering to take them for an assessment or ask if they would like you to be present during the assessment.
OFFER ALTERNATIVES
Offer alternatives to our services. If the person is not interested in our services, maybe there is another environment where they would feel more comfortable initially.
If none of the above is an option at this time, consider joining a support group locally. Sharing your experience with others who have friends or family members in need can offer much needed support.
