A Home Telehealth program, called Stable and Able (S\&A), provided just prior to discharge and provides additional support for up to 3 months 3. Treatment-as-usual (TAU), which is the treatment currently provided on the unit, consisting of various mental health topics and sessions designed to help with recovery. Participation begins on the inpatient unit, beginning with CRP and/or TAU, and may continue with S\&A post discharge. Participants will be followed up at 1 and 3- months post treatment.
