About Golden Palms Residential Trt Fac

Golden Palms is one component of Douglas Gardens Community Mental Health Center and is a 36-bed residential program designed for older adults who face serious and ongoing mental health challenges. The team offers round-the-clock supportive care, including therapeutic recreation, scheduled activities, and consistent supervision to help residents maintain daily structure, stability, and progress in recovery.

Licensed specialists provide psychiatric assessments, clinical consultations, and medication management, supported by organized treatment programming. In the facility, residents participate in group-based rehabilitation, training in coping strategies, and relapse prevention planning. Therapeutic recreation supports social development and independence, while well-planned daily activities help residents monitor symptoms and apply practical tools that promote steadier functioning.

Golden Palms provides a consistent residential environment with staff monitoring, along with daily meals and snacks. Residents join guided social and recreational programs that strengthen engagement with others and the broader community. Daily schedules support therapeutic involvement, and structured skill-building opportunities help residents practice real-life activities and build greater independence.
