Psychiatric Care

Submitted by Kyle.Norton on

Psychiatric Care

Your mental health can be affected in many ways by many factors.

For Outpatient Inquiries Call: 740-454-5927 For Inpatient Inquiries Call: 740-454-4615

And just like most medical conditions, sometimes you need the help of professionals to guide and support you on the road to recovery.

Genesis HealthCare System is here with a highly trained and compassionate team of psychiatrists, psychologists, certified counselors, therapists, social workers, nurses and support staff to guide and support you down the path to recovery.  

Inpatient and outpatient programs are offered, with programs for children/adolescents and adults.

    Inpatient Treatment

    Inpatient and outpatient psychiatric care is provided for adults and youth at Genesis Behavioral Health in three different settings. A team of physicians, nurses, social workers and therapists supervises each patient's (adult or adolescent) treatment plan.

    • A private, secure unit for adults.
    • A closed unit for intensive psychiatric treatment.
    • A pediatric/adolescent unit.

    To promote a healthier environment, the psychiatric unit is smoke-free. Smoking cessation options and counseling are available.

    Visitors are welcome from:

    Weekdays: 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
    Weekends and holidays: 2 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.

    Outpatient Programs

    You may not need inpatient treatment, and Genesis has an Outpatient Behavioral Health program that can help you. Services are based on individual needs and include:

    • Group therapy.
    • Individual therapy.
    • Medication management.

    Outpatient behavioral health care is provided in a short-term, supportive environment that may involve an intensive outpatient program. The program bridges the gap between hospital treatment and returning to the community. In many situations the need for a hospital admission is avoided or the length of a hospital stay is decreased by participating in the program.

    Supporting HealthCare in Our Communities

    The Genesis HealthCare Foundation is here to promote charitable support for Genesis HealthCare System. Find more ways you can help.

    Find Lung Cancer Early

    Low Dose CT Scan

    Find Lung Cancer Early

    Improve your odds of living longer. Find out if a Low-Dose CT Scan is right for you.

    Call to make an appointment: (740) 586-6888

    A low-dose CT scan can reduce your risk of dying from lung cancer by 20%, if you are considered high-risk. The screening is painless, involves no needles or medication and only takes about one minute. The low-dose CT scan is effective because it can identify potential lung cancer in the earliest stages of the disease when it is more treatable. 

    If you meet the following criteria, talk to your doctor because you may qualify for a free, low-dose CT scan through your health insurance. Criteria for a potentially free, low-dose CT scan includes:

    • Have a 20 pack-year or more history. A pack-year is smoking an average of one pack of cigarettes per day for one year. For example, a person could have a 20 pack-year history by smoking one pack a day for 20 years or two packs a day for 10 years.
    • Smoke now or have quit within the past 15 years.
    • Are between 50 and 80 years old.
    • Have no signs or symptoms of lung cancer.

     

    Frequently Asked Questions

      What is a lung cancer screening?

      A low-dose CT screening produces a 3-D image of the lungs while using less than 25% of the radiation of a regular computerized tomography (CT) scan. 

       

      How effective is a low-dose CT scan at preventing death from lung cancer?

      Studies have shown that a low-dose CT scan can lower the risk of dying from lung cancer by 20% for people that are high risk.

      How does the low-dose CT can help?

      The screening helps doctors find lung cancer early, when it is usually easier to treat. This can increase your odds of surviving lung cancer and allow for more treatment options.

      How is the exam performed?

      A low-dose CT screening is one of the easiest exams. You lie on a table that slides into a machine. As you slide through, the machine takes pictures of the inside of your body. It takes about one minute, requires no medications or needles and is painless. 

      What is the best way to prevent cancer?

      Don’t use tobacco products including cigarettes, e-cigarettes (vaping) and smokeless tobacco. You should also avoid second-hand smoke. If you do use tobacco products, quit now. 

      Where can I get help to quit tobacco?

      Talk to your doctor and he can refer you to a Genesis lung specialist for assistance in quitting.
