The Players Championship Village — the charitable arm of the Players Championship, part of the Professional Golf Association Tour — was originally formed to provide substance abuse treatment for youth ages 13 through 17.
The new unit will add 20 inpatient beds and will join Wolfson’s existing 14-bed Larry J. Freeman Behavioral Health Unit, which provides inpatient and outpatient pediatric mental health services, and an eight-bed behavioral health pod in the hospital’s emergency center.
It is slated to open in spring 2024. The hospital is continuing to raise funding for the unit.
Wolfson Children’s is a part of Jacksonville, Fla.-based Baptist Health.
At the Becker's Fall Behavioral Health Summit, taking place November 4–5 in Chicago, behavioral health leaders and executives will explore strategies for expanding access to care, integrating services, addressing workforce challenges and leveraging innovation to improve outcomes across the behavioral health continuum.
