Sample Page

This is an example page. It’s different from a blog post because it will stay in one place and will show up in your site navigation (in most themes). Most people start with an About page that introduces them to potential site visitors. It might say something like this:

Hi there! I’m a bike messenger by day, aspiring actor by night, and this is my website. I live in Los Angeles, have a great dog named Jack, and I like piña coladas. (And gettin’ caught in the rain.)

…or something like this:

The XYZ Doohickey Company was founded in 1971, and has been providing quality doohickeys to the public ever since. Located in Gotham City, XYZ employs over 2,000 people and does all kinds of awesome things for the Gotham community.

New Patient Intake Form

Please complete the form in its entirety. If a section does not apply to you, please enter “N/A” in the box.

Patient Orientation

Important Points:

If an emergency arises, please call 911. We request 24 hours notice when canceling appointments. All appointments canceled with less than 2 hours notice will be subject to a no-show fee of $75.

Information regarding patient treatment is kept strictly confidential unless one of the following is present: an authorization to disclose/exchange information with specified individuals, an imminent threat on a patient’s safety is perceived, the patient threatens another individual’s safety, or a medical emergency arises. In any case, we make every effort to protect your privacy and health records.

Families are important to us. We encourage family involvement in treatment, especially if treatment is being provided to a patient under the age of 18.

Patient Bill of Rights and agency standards are offered at the initial appointment and are available to patients upon request.

Treatment Issues:

In the event of an after-hours issue that is unrelated to appointment changes, scheduling, or medication refills, patients may contact Bridges’ after-hours on-call service at 410-490-0209

  • A patient may be subject to discharge for treatment non-compliance, assaultive behaviors, drug seeking behaviors, etc. Please see Discharge Notice for further information. To file a complaint or grievance, the patient may inform our front staff so they may provide assistance, or the patient may retrieve a grievance form from the bulletin board in our waiting area. Grievance forms may be returned to our office in-person or by mail. Upon receipt of a grievance, the Executive Director will reach out for resolution. If you are still unsatisfied upon resolution of your grievance, you may file an appeal in writing and submit it to our agency for review.

If you are not satisfied with your treatment or feel that you are not forming a connection with your therapist, please inform our front staff so that we can make accommodations or transfer you to a different clinician.
