You should also plan to bring any durable medical equipment you may need such as a cane, wheelchair, CPAP machine, and hearing or visual aids. Items with cords may need to be kept at the nursing station. Please mark your name on all personal care items.

Personal Valuables

McLean Hospital is not responsible for loss or damage to personal items, including eyeglasses, hearing aids, and dentures.

We recommend that you keep jewelry and other valuables at home and not carry more than $10 in cash. Please consider sending valuables home with family.

For privacy reasons, cameras, including those in cellphones, and other electronic recording devices are not allowed at inpatient programs.

Cellphones

To help promote focused engagement during group therapy and other aspects of treatment, some inpatient programs do not allow cellphone use while others discourage or restrict usage. A few inpatient programs permit only cellphones without cameras.

Please check with the staff about cellphone policies at your program.

Computers

Computers and any electronic equipment that can be used to photograph or record sound or images are not permitted at McLean inpatient programs.

Patients on the Belmont campus may check with staff about using computers available for patient use.

Restricted Items

Items that are not allowed at the program for safety and privacy reasons:

Alcoholic beverages

Razors

Guns/weapons

Knives/other sharp objects

Cameras

Glass bottles

Matches/lighters

Plastic bags

Drugs/medications

Mirrors

Video recorders

Glass picture frames

Please check with program staff regarding policies on belts, dental floss, electric razors, hair dryers, nail clippers, audio players, headphones, cigarettes, and canned beverages.

What do I need to know once I arrive at an inpatient program?

A mental health specialist or nurse will help you get settled at the program and in your room. All inpatient staff are available to answer questions and address concerns that you may have.

In addition, this guide provides answers to many questions and offers a lot of information that you and your family may find helpful.

Once settled, your family and friends may visit with you. In general, family and friends are allowed to visit during scheduled visiting hours and only if you wish to see them. Talk to a staff member about concerns you may have about visitors.

During your stay, a team of clinicians, including doctors, nurses, and a case manager, will oversee your care and treatment and help you on your way to recovery.

Is financial assistance available?

McLean Hospital recognizes that some patients have limited means and may not have access to insurance coverage for all services. We therefore have a financial assistance program for uninsured patients and underinsured patients with limited financial resources.

Visit the Mass General Brigham website to learn more.

For Families and Friends

When can I see my family member or friend who is being evaluated at McLean?

Up to two family members and close friends, except for children under 18 years old, may stay (with the patient's permission) while the patient is being evaluated. Family and friends will be asked to step out of the room for all or part of the evaluation.

Any family member or friend with information that is important for clinicians to know during the initial assessment should ask to speak with staff if they do not have an opportunity to provide this information during the evaluation.

Formal family meetings are not routinely part of the initial evaluation. These will occur later in the inpatient stay with staff at the program.

How do the privacy rules affect what McLean clinicians and staff can tell me?

Patients who are 18 years old or older are legal adults with legal privacy rights. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) prohibits clinical staff from sharing information without a patient's written consent.

All health providers must comply with these federal regulations, which means that they must obtain formal permission to share information (including diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis) with you, or anyone else, even if you are a spouse, a parent, or a guardian of a patient. A patient provides permission by signing a release of information form.
