<p><strong>ABOUT SAINT FRANCIS HOSPITAL — BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CENTER</strong></p> <p>Founded in 1974, Saint Francis Hospital is a 519-bed general medical hospital set on a 42-acre campus in East Memphis. Among the hospital’s specialist departments is its Behavioral Health Center that offers <strong>short-term inpatient treatment</strong> for children, adolescents, adults, and seniors who are struggling with a variety of mental and behavioral disorders, including substance abuse. It is one of <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/TN16.pdf" target="_blank">17 short-term, hospital-based residential facilities in Tennessee.</a></p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Treatment begins with an initial assessment, available 24/7. Further assessments available for adults include medical exams, psychiatric and psychological evaluations, and medication reviews conducted by pharmacists. The program for adults consists of <strong>individual and group counseling,</strong> recreational therapy, educational groups, and <strong>medication management services.</strong> A review submitted to Rehabs.com by a program alum indicated that treatment also used the <strong>12-Step model of recovery</strong>. Each client also leaves with a full discharge plan.</p> <p>Programs for children, adolescents, and seniors offer the same modalities and capabilities as the adult program, but are tailored to suit the age group in question. For instance, <strong>schooling services are provided for adolescents,</strong> and support is provided for the caregivers of senior clients.</p> <p>The behavioral health unit also offers <strong>the Barnabas Program, a faith-based psychiatric inpatient program</strong> that uses biblical teachings alongside evidence-based modalities drawn from the fields of psychiatry and psychology.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Behavioral Health Center's treatment team consists of a board-eligible psychiatrist and other mental health professionals who have all received clinical training and who have faith in Judeo-Christian principles. </p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>Each adult inpatient has a <strong>private room and private bathroom</strong> for the duration of their stay. The three individuals polled by Rehabs.com at the time of this writing all praised the cleanliness and upkeep of the facility, offering two perfect five-star ratings and a four-star rating for this evaluated metric. </p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>At the time of this writing, there have been two alumni polled by Rehabs.com, and both gave the facility positive ratings. One anonymous alum gave the facility five out of five stars for the staff's experience and training, its ability to treat co-occurring disorders, counseling options, and the amount of family participation. </p> <p>Alum D.G. awarded five stars for the inclusion of holistic offerings and four stars for the effectiveness of faith-based programming. “Staff were ex addicts which makes it more comfortable to be truthful with knowing they have themselves been where u are,” D.G. wrote. She added that the "staff and doctors really made me want to be clean and showed me what I needed to do to stay that way.”</p> <p>Reviews on secondary sites, for the hospital as a whole, were also mostly positive. On Saint Francis' Facebook page, which the facility may have the ability to control, 1,081 reviewers gave an average rating of 3.9 out of five stars.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> On Google, 134 reviewers gave an average rating of three out of five stars.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small> It should be noted that these reviews reflect opinions of the hospital in general, as opposed to the behavioral health department specifically.</p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>At the time of this writing, there has been two loved ones polled by Rehabs.com. One anonymous loved one gave four-star ratings for the facility's leisure, exercise, and extracurricular options, as well as for the facility's ability to treat co-occurring disorders, holistic offerings, and its family participation. However, another anonymous loved one gave three stars for treatment effectiveness, adding: "Poor, horrible family group."</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Saint Francis works with <strong>Medicare and TriCare</strong> as well as many private health insurance plans, including <strong>Aetna, Blue Cross, Cigna, and United.</strong> The hospital offers payment plans and alternate funding for uninsured and underinsured clients, including a financial assistance program for eligible clients.
