Psychiatric & Chemical Dependency Unit

Visit Bradford Health Services online for more information about our corporate and clinical treatment programs.

The Bradford/Physicians Medical Center Carraway Behavioral Health Units provide inpatient evaluation, stabilization and treatment for acute psychiatric illnesses, geriatric patients and detoxification for chemically dependent patients. The patients are provided a structured environment involving a multi-disciplinary treatment team approach. The psychiatrists, nurses, counselors, social workers, recreational therapists and occupational therapists work together to develop individualized treatment plans, which address the specific needs of the patient. The goal is to stabilize the patient and to provide a support system that allows the patient to return to the community as quickly as possible.

While in treatment the patient receives group and individual therapy, recreational therapy, occupational therapy, educational information, medical consults (when deemed necessary by the physician) and discharge planning. Family members are also involved in the patient’s treatment and discharge plans.
