The Centre for Mental Rehabilitation (CDR) in Beroun is a unique psychiatric workplace not only in the Czech Republic, but also in the context of the whole Europe. Our treatment is based on the most advanced knowledge and methods of modern psychiatry. The key for us is a friendly and human approach.
We provide comprehensive care for people living with mental illness or at risk of developing mental illness. We offer outpatient and acute inpatient care, as well as psychotherapeutic programmes designed by the leading Czech psychiatrist Prof. Ján Prasek CSc. In addition, we offer patients the option of inpatient care or neurostimulation and sleep medicine.
As a part of the AKESO group, we want to fulfill the long-term aspiration of the owner, Sotirios Zavalianis, to provide comprehensive care in a dignified environment using the most modern procedures and knowledge. It is important to maintain the comfort that people are used to in our facilities.
When CDR was established, our goal was to create a psychiatric facility that can fulfill the AKESO Group's main vision, that is, to combine health care with a human approach and helpfulness. We know that these values are absolutely key in mental health care, and that is why we always put them first.
An environment that supports treatment
When designing and building the Center, it was crucial for us to make both patients and staff feel comfortable. The result is a modern, airy and welcoming environment. In addition, the CDR provides patients with maximum comfort in the form of luxuriously equipped single and double rooms. In addition, patients can use the swimming pool, multifunctional cultural and conference hall, art therapy, kinesiotherapy and other supportive therapeutic activities right in the building. A completely unique lighting system that respects the day and night rhythms significantly contributes to the effectiveness of the treatment.
The layout of the Mental Rehabilitation Centre:
- 3 acute care stations
- 8 suites
- 1 station of specialized psychotherapeutic care
- outpatient clinic for specialized mental health services
- 3 day hospitals and spaces for multidisciplinary planning with community services
- virtual reality therapy, phototherapy, music therapy, drama therapy, nutritional therapy
- modern facilities for other therapeutic and activation services
Digitalised therapeutic care accessible to all
Mindwell is a digital therapeutic platform based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Its main goal is to increase the availability of quality mental health care to all who need it. It is designed as a tool to manage mild to moderate mental health problems and help prevent them. KBT is a scientifically validated approach to therapy and its digital form is comparable to face-to-face therapy according to studies. Mindwell includes individual e-programs to address depression, worry, anxiety, over-stress and burnout syndrome. The creator of the content of the e-programs and the expert guarantor of the project is Prof. Ján Praško, M.D., CSc. with a team of experts.
The individual e-programmes contain 12 modules, each module corresponds to one physical session with a therapist. In each module the client will find theoretical lessons, stories, videos, examples and practical exercises aimed at improving his/her psychological state. Throughout the duration of the e-programme, the client is accompanied by his personal therapist who gives him feedback and evaluates his progress. The client completes theoretical and practical exercises to help him identify his unhealthy thinking habits. The client then changes his habits into healthier ones through repetition, learning and practice. This will be reflected in a change in his behaviour in the form of better coping with various stressful situations.
Mindwell is a modern, user-friendly digital platform that uses scientifically proven psychological techniques to help you think, behave and feel better. Learn more at: https://mindwell.cz/.
