AnMed Health Behavioral Health Center provides confidential short-term inpatient and outpatient psychiatric treatment and supportive medical care.

Patients in the Behavioral Health Center are cared for by a multi-disciplinary team of mental health professionals who are under the direction of a psychiatrist. Upon admission, each patient is given a comprehensive assessment and an individualized treatment plan is developed.

Programs at the Behavioral Health Center

Provided by masters-prepared counselors and psychiatric nurses under the direction of a physician. Patients are encouraged to develop an understanding of their problem. Medical treatments and behavioral-control therapies are designed to help patients regain a sense of purpose and well-being, while returning them to a normal degree of functioning. Programs include:
* Adult Acute Care Program-which provides confidential treatments for adults who have demonstrated problems associated with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders and/or other behavioral health diagnoses.
* Senior Adult Acute Care Program-which specializes in short-term psychiatric and supportive medical care for persons aged 65 and older who are suffering from cognitive, emotional and behavioral disorders related to aging.
* Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)-which serves patients whose behavioral or emotional problems do not necessitate inpatient treatment, but who can benefit from comprehensive and ongoing therapy in an outpatient setting three days a week.
