About the Programme
The 12-day residential program at the Center for Mental Rehabilitation is primarily designed to diagnose attention deficit disorder in adults. The goal of the program is to confirm or rule out the presence of ADHD or other attention disorders that may manifest as impaired concentration, impulsivity, or difficulty with time management. Based on the results of the examination, treatment is then initiated if necessary, and patient education is also part of the program.
The strength of the program is the presence of a multidisciplinary team consisting of psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses, psychologists, neurologists, addictionologists, nutritional therapists, sleep specialists and movement and creative therapists. Through this collaboration, we are able to gain a comprehensive view of each patient's condition and design an individualized plan for future care.
The program includes professional psychological evaluations, psychoeducational blocks, community meetings, movement and creative activities, and support in coping with the daily challenges associated with ADHD.
All health care is fully covered by health insurance. Participants pay for their own accommodation in superior single rooms only. The cost is 2,100 CZK per day, for a total of 25,200 CZK per stay.
After diagnosis and completion of the programme, patients have the option of enrolling in a follow-up psychotherapy programme for patients with attention deficit disorder, which opens at CDR approximately once every six months. The programme lasts four weeks, is free of charge and helps patients to learn to work with their diagnosis. You can find out more about the psychotherapy programme here.
