The inpatient behavioral health services at Valley Health provide patients with a safe place to address mental health conditions with the help of an experienced and compassionate team. Patients benefit from an intensive inpatient treatment program tailored to their unique needs.
Valley Health advocates for the community approach to care by collaborating with mental health and social services agencies, substance abuse programs, and other providers to ensure a seamless continuation of care for the patient following discharge from the inpatient (hospital) setting.
Inpatient Services Include:
Each patient’s treatment is individualized to meet patient needs and set appropriate expectations for treatment.
Our intake services are directed by experienced psychiatric professionals who quickly respond to crisis calls or questions. The team can provide assessments for hospitalization or provide referral information.
This assessment provides us with critical information about the patient’s condition and what services they need. Individuals experience behavioral health crises very differently, and there is no “one size fits all” approach to treatment. Based on the information we obtain from the assessment, we can place patients where they will receive the most beneficial treatment.
Our facility provides comprehensive, acute, short-term assessment and treatment of psychiatric disorders with or without co-morbid identified substance abuse. We have programs for both adults (18 and up) and seniors (55 and up). Our behavioral health specialists have experience and training helping patients deal with stresses and common mental health difficulties that occur during these ages.
