Our Services
We recognise that no two patients are alike. Some require intensive support (an inpatient admission) to find their feet, while others benefit most from structured outpatient day programs. And some patients might just need to be seen in the clinical every so often, and managed outside of our unit.
At Sunshine Clinic Private Hospital, we offer:
- Inpatient services for stabilisation and recovery in a safe, therapeutic environment
- Outpatient day programs designed to integrate therapy into everyday life while maintaining independence
- Consulting rooms for one-on-one assessments, reviews, and ongoing management
