About
The Inpatient Psychiatric program at MyMichigan Medical Center Alma provides short-term acute psychiatric help to people who need 24-hour care and monitoring. Our facility offers a lively, attractive, homelike setting where patients and staff work together as a team and every patient is treated with compassion and dignity. We also involve families as part of our philosophy of care.
Patients are screened for other health problems at admission and make appropriate referrals to treat any conditions that may impact recovery.
Our facilities offer a safe, confidential environment and are designed to promote daily and growth of self-reliance, two important aspects of the recovery process.
