Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine

Memorial Epworth Center operates a 50-bed psychiatric hospital for adults and adolescents ages 13 and above. Services provided include short-term stabilization and support to people who are experiencing a psychiatric emergency that cannot be managed in an outpatient setting. Prior to discharge, patients and staff work together to create a safety plan and comprehensive discharge plan which includes linking patients to other, less intensive services to help prevent future emergencies. Patients who are hospitalized at Memorial Epworth Center need immediate intervention for their safety and the safety of others due to a mental illness. Our care, directed by board-certified psychiatrists, includes the diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorders, schizophrenia and others.
