About Northeast Georgia Medical Center Gainesville

Laurelwood at Northeast Georgia Medical Center Gainesville is a 54 bed inpatient behavioral health facility providing acute stabilization and treatment for mental illness and substance use disorders.

I like how the program serves both adults and adolescents with specialized units for each population and treatment for cooccurring conditions.

I appreciate their interdisciplinary patient centered approach with psychiatrists, nurses, therapists and case managers collaborating to support recovery and continuity of care.

Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery.

Rec Room & Activities

Recreational therapy uniquely combines therapeutic interventions with an activity, like horse-riding, hiking, wilderness therapy, basketball, tennis, or a full workout. Benefits of recreational therapy include providing a healthy way to work through the emotions of recovery, learning to build and maintain relationships, improving communication skills, and building self-esteem.

In order to maintain a sense of autonomy, many private rehab facilities offer clients the ability to choose their own private rooms. The privacy and personal space ensure that the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.
