Crossgates River Oaks Hospital – Behavioral Health

Merit Health Rankin is a full service hospital that also provides specialized mental health services. They are located in Brandon, Mississippi. Their inpatient and outpatient programs are open to adults. They also have a geriatric specific program.

The behavioral health department is made up of a multidisciplinary team focused on whole person well being. So in addition to getting professional mental health care, you’ll also have physical and spiritual support. I like that these services are made available during treatment rather than being provided as aftercare because it illustrates how all parts of us influence our mental health.

Of special note is the geriatric inpatient program. This unique program addresses the problems of seniors during treatment and recovery. It elevates the whole person approach by focusing on how advanced age can impact symptoms and overall behavioral health. Plus, as an inpatient program, it provides around the clock care and security.

Previous clients state that Merit Health Rankin has friendly staff. However, some have mentioned long wait times.
