What are Inpatient Behavioral Health Services
Summa Health offers inpatient behavioral health admissions as an option for patients experiencing a mental health crisis that requires immediate care.
While the majority of people with mental health conditions will likely not need to be hospitalized, an individual may need to be so that they can be closely monitored and accurately diagnosed, have their medications adjusted or stabilized, or be monitored during an acute episode when their mental illness temporarily worsens. Summa Health offers comprehensive inpatient behavioral health services for patients experiencing a mental health crisis that requires immediate care, including standard psychiatric services, as well as specialized services such as electroconvulsive therapy, detoxification, as well as art and music therapy.
Our Services


Our Consultation and Liaison treatment team includes psychiatrists, psychologists and addiction medicine physicians. These professionals assess the needs of each inpatient and provide recommendations to their medical treatment providers. Patients may need short-term supportive services due to an acute stress reaction to their illness or hospitalization. They may also be experiencing psychiatric difficulties related to a medical problem that requires coordinated psychiatric and medical treatment or referral to other services upon discharge.
