Mental Health Care Services

Sanford Behavioral Health offers behavioral health treatment in inpatient, outpatient and partial hospitalization settings.

Inpatient care is medical care that happens in a hospital. We treat patients with severe symptoms that need to be monitored by health professionals.

Outpatient care means that patients come to a facility to receive treatment and leave when the procedure, therapy or testing is complete.

Partial hospitalization programs are in between inpatient and outpatient care. If you do not need to be monitored 24 hours a day by health care professionals, but cannot live completely independently, you may participate in a PHP. During the day, you will go to a facility where you receive treatment but can go home at night.

Sanford Behavioral Health offers all three of these programs, so you can get the level of treatment you need.

You are not alone. When you need compassionate support, Sanford Behavioral Health is here for you.
