In-patient Chemical Dependency Program Discontinued at Baptist Regional Medical Center

Baptist Regional Medical Center has discontinued its In-patient Chemical Dependency Program as of February 28, 2011.  This decision came in response to a demand for increased general psychiatric beds and an analysis showing the financial non-viability of the inpatient chemical dependency program. 

Baptist Regional Medical Center remains committed to combating chemical dependency and will continue to provide outpatient chemical dependency services through its Chemical Dependency Intensive Outpatient (IOP) treatment program, and inpatient chemical dependency treatment as needed for patients admitted with a primary psychiatric diagnosis. The helpline 1-800-395-4435 or (606) 523-5900 remains available to assist callers with appropriate chemical dependency options.
