About Your Organization:
UofL Health – Mary & Elizabeth Hospital has partnered with our sister facility, UofL Health – Peace Hospital to create a voluntary inpatient medical detox unit at Mary & Elizabeth Hospital to care for patients with substance use disorders. The unit features 12 private patient rooms, but has the capacity to expand to care for 25 patients.
In addition to assisting patients through the detox process, the unit also offers:
• Therapy groups led by licensed therapists who work with discharge planning and aftercare services to ensure that patients maintain adherence to their treatment plans to achieve long-term sobriety and increased well-being.
• Recovery-based therapy, some of which may incorporate music and art components, is available to patients as is guided meditation.
Staff caring for patients on both the medical behavioral health unit and the medical detox unit have experience in behavioral health as well as medical/surgical nursing.
At discharge, each patient will work with a therapist/case manager to develop a continuing care plan for intensive outpatient, residential or outpatient therapy. Community resources will also be provided so that patients have the support and tools needed in their recovery.
To learn more about medical behavioral health services provided at Mary & Elizabeth Hospital, along with the process to be admitted, please call 502-361-6731 | Fax 502-363-7808.
