Primary Physicians:
Psychiatrists, the primary physicians at Rye, are responsible for all individual psychotherapy. They may treat patients directly, as leaders of the multidisciplinary team, or supervise the case with the psychotherapy performed by trained therapists. In this way, they secure the doctor-patient relationship underlying the entire program so essential in achieving successful results. The Behavioral Medicine Service Coordinator is Joanne Moskowitz, M.A. who has many years' experience in behavioral-training modalities including stress and anger management and biofeedback therapy. |

The primary physicians review the treatment plan and each patient's personal assessment
records. They coordinate medication-reduction procedures with the hospital pharmacist and nursing
staff and update and sign all orders.
Physicians also participate in internal peer review, which is designed to be informational rather than investigative in nature and of equal benefit to the rest of the medical staff,
other hospital personnel and the patient population. |
