St. Mary’s Behavioral Health Services provides a safe and secure inpatient care setting for children, adolescents and adults. Our inpatient unit has 24 semi-private adult beds and 18 semi-private child/adolescent beds. Our partial hospitalization program takes place in this unit as well.
Our Behavioral Health team cares for every patient in a caring, respectful and professional manner. Our team is a mix of exceptionally trained multidisciplinary staff including psychiatrists, nurses, social workers, therapists and counselors. It is our goal for all patients to experience the Hospital’s core values of respect, care, joy and competence as we support their treatment goals and return to the community.
We Respect Confidentiality
We respect our patients’ confidentiality and require that everyone who visits the unit do so as well. All therapy sessions are treated in a confidential manner. Patients are not allowed to talk about past patients on the unit to current patients. They are not to talk to family members about past or current patients, and they are not allowed to exchange personal information such as phone numbers or addresses with other patients. Additionally, no cell phones, cameras or recording devices are allowed on the unit at any time.
