The roughly $10 million unit was made possible by a $4 million donation from Amiya and Jeff Veatch, who founded engineering firm Apex Systems. The unit will be named for them.
The unit will add 20 beds, bringing the hospital’s total behavioral health bed count up to 50; private rooms; quiet spaces; modernized equipment; and enhanced safety features, like impact-resistant windows and drywall.
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.
