About
A department of MyMichigan Medical Center Sault
We believe that the health of your mind is as important as the health of your body. Our behavioral health services are here to help you navigate through life in order to reach your personal health goals. The MyMichigan Health team can help you address a wide range of mental health conditions.
We are a 20-bed inpatient facility that is designed for adults ages 18 and over. Our program offers supportive, 24-hour monitoring for patients that are suffering with a variety of psychiatric illnesses, including:
- depression
- anxiety
- bi-polar
- psychosis
- schizophrenia
- mood disorders
- post traumatic stress disorder
- and more...
Our mission is to offer a safe, caring and therapeutic environment that allows our patients to begin their path to recovery.
Our multidisciplinary clinical team collaborates with each patient to jointly identify symptoms of distress and discover strengths upon which to build. With every inpatient admission, the patient undergoes a health/physical and psychiatric consultation as well.
An individualized treatment plan is formulated for each patient and all are encouraged to participate in recreational therapy, psychotherapy groups and compliance with medication management. Our staff consists of highly skilled, motivated and dedicated professionals that work extensively to assist each patient as they strive for their treatment goals. Expert care is delivered by board certified psychiatrists, specially-trained nurses, social workers, occupational and physical therapists, and other members of the MyMichigan Health medical staff.
Treatment does not end upon discharge. Our professional staff formulates an aftercare plan that is crucial in the continuation of a patient’s recovery and may include references for therapeutic housing, employment, out-patient psychiatric and psychotherapy services, family counseling and education.
Receiving Inpatient Treatment or Referring Someone for Care
Emergency department staff, outpatient clinicians, physician practices, and Community Mental Health advocates can all screen patients for possible referral to our inpatient facility.
