Expansion of Southwest General’s Oakview Behavioral Health Services

In April 2019, construction began to expand Southwest General’s Oakview Behavioral Health Services Inpatient Facility. The $6.5 million capital improvement project will address the growing need for behavioral health services by enlarging the Inpatient Facility, converting from semi-private to private patient rooms, and increasing the number of beds available for inpatient care. The project also includes:

• The addition of office space for Southwest General Medical Group’s Behavioral Health practice, bringing clinical staff and patients closer together to enhance care
• Development of a multi-sensory room to help calm patients and reduce the risk of violence
• Renovation of the current building infrastructure as the building was constructed more than 29 years ago

The project will not only increase the capacity for treating psychiatric patients at Southwest General but also enhance safety measures for patients and staff. Additionally, it will help to position Southwest General as the premiere west side provider of comprehensive behavioral health services.

Construction is expected to be completed in the fall of 2019, and renovation of the existing space is anticipated to be completed in early 2020.
