In this episode of 5 FAQs, host Jonathan Friedman speaks with Dr. Suanne Wong about levels of care when it comes to navigating mental health and addiction care.

Everyone that begins treatment does not arrive at the same place on the spectrum. It’s essential to choose the right level based on individual needs. But because of the stigma that still surrounds topics like depression, trauma, and addiction, many people are afraid to ask questions or talk to their families about their struggles. We went to Dr. Wong to get the answers.

THE 5 FAQs WE WILL ANSWER:
1. What are the levels of care and how do they cater to various needs?
2. What factors should individuals consider when choosing the right level of care for their mental health needs?
3. What are some common misconceptions about inpatient mental health care?
4. What role do family and support systems play in determining the right level of care?
5. What’s next for mental health care in terms of accessibility and treatment options?
