A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held for Valley Springs Behavioral Health Hospital, based in Holyoke, Mass., according to an Aug. 14 report from NBC affiliate WWLP-22News.
The hospital is the result of a joint venture between Springfield, Mass.-based Baystate Health and Brentwood, Tenn.-based Lifepoint Health. It will be operated by Lifepoint Health business unit Lifepoint Behavioral Health.
The facility comprises 122,000 square feet, four stories, and 150 rooms for adults and adolescents to receive inpatient care. Valley Springs is the 23rd behavioral health hospital run by Lifepoint Behavioral Health, but it is the organization's first hospital to be built and operated within a joint relationship.
