Inpatient Services

Asking for help is hard enough, getting it should not be. 

The Westcott Behavioral Health Inpatient Services

Few health providers in Northwest Georgia can match the quality of services provided by Hamilton’s Westcott Behavioral Health. Westcott Behavioral Health is a 27 bed acute voluntary adult behavioral health treatment unit that is housed in Hamilton Medical Center. Our goal is to create a safe place to begin the healing process from emotional illness and addictive disease. Our strength lies not just in the quantity of services we can provide, but in the quality as well. We believe that successful outcomes are measured by the ability to withstand the tests of time. Behavioral Health programs must provide services that not only help clients adapt to the challenges they currently face, but help them thrive and maintain health through all seasons of life. Whether through intensive inpatient programs or structured outpatients services, the client’s needs, both emotional and physiological must be fully met for progress to be realized.

Our professional staff and treatment team members consist of:

• Psychiatrists
• Hospitalist
• Psychiatric nurses
• Psychologists
• Licensed clinical social workers
• Licensed professional counselors
• Occupational therapists
• Spiritual counselors
• Case managers
• Compassionate and caring staff

Each patient works with a case manager and an individual plan of care is developed based upon the strengths and needs of each person we have the privilege to treat. At time of discharge, each patient will have a comprehensive continued care plan to serve as a map for a continued journey of recovery.

We know you have the choice to decide where you seek treatment, so why not choose the best? 
The best care is this close to home. Our patients rated us number one - in 2008. The Westcott Behavioral Health was awarded the Press Ganey Summit award for outstanding patient satisfaction scores for three consecutive years. This prestigious accomplishment was earned by only two other behavioral health units in the nation.
