Admissions

At Southcoast Behavioral Health, we understand that the process of contacting treatment centers and being admitted for treatment can be a difficult and sometimes intimidating process. As such, we have worked hard to streamline our admissions process and make it as easy and as comfortable as possible.

We encourage prospective patients, family members, and referents to contact us directly. A member of our admissions team will conduct an initial screening, and ascertain whether Southcoast will be able to best meet the prospective patient’s needs. They will also assess treatment needs and recommend an appropriate level of care.

Southcoast is proud to provide treatment for men and women aged 18 and older with a variety of mental health issues. Though we provide care to people with many different kinds of mental illnesses, some of the most common disorders we treat include:

• Depressive disorders
• Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
• Bipolar disorder
• Anxiety disorders
• Suicidal ideation
• Substance abuse
• Schizophrenia
• Schizoaffective disorder
• Psychosis
• Adjustment disorder
• Autism spectrum disorders
• Self-harming behaviors
• Aggression
• Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

We also provide care for co-occurring diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and bronchitis. Because we do not provide services for people with eating disorders and people in need of IVs, we are happy to provide referrals to centers that will better be able to address these patients’ needs.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. We would be happy to speak with you to determine if Southcoast is the best place for you, your loved one, or someone in your care to begin a journey towards improved health.
