About Saint Francis Hospital – Memphis
Saint Francis Hospital Memphis is a 519 bed general medical center located on Park Avenue offering comprehensive behavioral health services through an inpatient psychiatric unit.
The facility provides mental health and substance abuse treatment for children and adolescents, adults and seniors, with care delivered by qualified mental health professionals under the direction of board eligible psychiatrists. Saint Francis offers short term, solution oriented treatment in a medical setting where co-occurring physical and mental health conditions can be addressed at the same time.
Dual Diagnosis in a Hospital Setting
Saint Francis specializes in treating adults with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, including anxiety, depression and addiction with concurrent pain management. I think it's noteworthy that the facility's unique position as a psychiatric unit within a full service general hospital allows for comprehensive care when behavioral health conditions overlap with other medical needs.
Treatment combines individual psychotherapy, group counseling and family therapy with medical and psychological assessments, medication management and recreational therapy.
Using cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy, trauma therapy and integrated approaches, sessions target both underlying issues and day to day symptoms while providing relapse prevention skills and comprehensive support services.
Geriatric Health Care
Saint Francis operates a specialized geriatric program for seniors age 65 and older experiencing dementia, Alzheimer's, depression, agitation, memory loss and declining daily living skills. The program addresses the unique intersection of mental health and aging related challenges with age appropriate treatment and around the clock nursing care in private rooms.
Access and Getting Started
Saint Francis serves the Mid South region from its east Memphis campus, offering both in person treatment and telemedicine options with 24/7 free confidential assessments available.
The CARF International accredited facility accepts most major insurance including Medicare, Medicaid and TRICARE, private insurance and health insurance exchanges, with sliding fee scale programs available for qualifying individuals.
