About Behavioral Health at St. Bernard Hospital – Chicago
Saint Bernard Hospital provides ambulatory, physical medicine, and behavioral health care services for children, adolescents, and adults in Chicago, Illinois. In their behavioral health department, they specialize in treating different issues including depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. They offer inpatient and outpatient units designed to meet you exactly where you are in your recovery journey.
Their inpatient program is divided into separate units for men and women. Here, you’ll be monitored round the clock in a safe, therapeutic environment. They provide crisis stabilization and evaluation services to help you start your recovery the right way. While you’re staying on site, you’ll participate in individual and group counseling, medication management, and psychoeducation. They’ll also create a personalized discharge plan to connect you with community resources once you’re ready to leave the facility.
If you don’t need intensive support, you may participate in their outpatient program. This program gives you access to the same services but lets you live at home while attending treatment. During your group meetings, you’ll focus on issues that pertain to addiction and recovery including anger management and family relationships. Your loved ones are encouraged to participate in your sessions.
