About Our Senior Behavioral Health Program

Girard Medical Center's Senior Behavioral Health Program provides compassionate, specialized inpatient psychiatric care for older adults experiencing emotional or behavioral health challenges that interfere with their daily lives. Our interdisciplinary team is dedicated to helping patients regain stability, improve their quality of life, and return to the highest level of independence possible.

The program serves adults, typically age 55 and older, who may be experiencing conditions such as depression, anxiety, grief, mood disorders, behavioral changes related to dementia, or other mental health concerns that require short-term inpatient treatment. Patients receive individualized care through a combination of psychiatric evaluation, medication management, individual and group therapy, family involvement, and discharge planning tailored to their unique needs.

Our Senior Behavioral Health team works collaboratively with patients, families, primary care providers, and community resources to ensure a safe, supportive, and healing environment where each individual is treated with dignity, respect, and compassion.
