She probably felt that way because McKenzie went above and beyond. Carmella told me that while I was not able to be with her she identified with McKenzie as someone she trusted, respected and admired. I would like to share that her case manager McKenzie Sheridan was like a safe haven for Carmella. I just know Carmella needed CEDC first and I can’t thank them enough.Carmella spoke very highly of the staff on her team. I think they are both necessary and important. I also strongly feel that the inpatient care is a necessary step prior to starting with outpatient care. I truly believe that inpatient care at CEDC saved my daughters life. She is still navigating through this disorder but with coping skills and strategies in place to help her with the next step. She is home now and is starting outpatient therapy. Carmella herself told me she felt safe there and when she left she missed the staff and the friends that she bonded with while navigating through the eating disorder. As parents, safety is one thing that weighs heavy on our hearts. There was definitely a home /CEDC connection throughout the process.Having a daughter that went through CEDC I want you to know that my daughter felt safe the whole time that she was there. They kept you in the loop and abreast of everything that was going. They provided the love, care and support that was necessary to set Carmella up for success. Carmella was assigned a staff of professionals that assessed her needs and treated her with the specific care that she needed. I am truly grateful for the level of care and support provided by the staff at CEDC.

They welcomed us with open arms and made you feel loved before you even arrived.I can not say enough about the Cambridge Eating Disorder Center. CEDC responded promptly and they were on top of everything. The reason I mention both places is because they collaborated and made it a smooth transition for Carmella to get the level of care that she needed. Very shortly after her visit to Sol Stone she went to Cambridge Eating Disorder Center known as CEDC. When I realized what was happening with my daughter I brought her right away to her pediatrician who in turn told us about Sol Stone in Elmira. My name is Teresa and my daughter Carmella is diagnosed with anorexia nervosa. I would like to take the time to introduce myself.
