What we treat
Treatment & Programs
Levels of Care
The behavioral health continuum at Good Samaritan spans from acute inpatient psychiatric stabilization to ongoing community care. Adults in crisis can access the 20-bed LaSalle Behavioral Health unit for short-term, patient-centered stabilization and medication management. For step-down and regular treatment, the hospital provides dedicated outpatient psychiatry services alongside an Integrated Mobile Wellness Unit that serves surrounding communities.
Therapies
Beyond traditional counseling, Samaritan Center - Loogootee offers advanced clinical modalities specifically intended for treatment-resistant mental health conditions. Their site heavily emphasizes noninvasive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and carefully monitored Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) as key tools for alleviating severe depressive symptoms. Throughout all levels of care, the staff utilizes a patient-centered framework to help individuals build practical coping skills.
Addictions
While primarily a comprehensive medical and mental health system, the inpatient psychiatric unit stabilizes individuals experiencing an acute substance use disorder crisis. The clinical team focuses on immediate medical safety, developing coping skills, and creating an effective medication plan. Following discharge, patients receive direct referrals to specialized outpatient programming for continued recovery support.
Conditions
The clinical team treats a wide spectrum of acute psychological crises, with specialized interventions for complex or treatment-resistant diagnoses. Patients struggling with severe depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia receive comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and targeted care. The facility is particularly equipped to stabilize individuals experiencing extreme symptoms, including suicidal thoughts, severe agitation, or catatonia.
Issues
Recognizing that mental health challenges impact the entire family system, the hospital offers specialized community resources to address complex life stressors. Their Caregiver Support Group provides a critical space for individuals facing burnout or isolation while caring for a loved one. Additionally, the "Good Grief" program helps local residents navigate the profound emotional toll of losing a partner or family member.
Programs
A cornerstone of their outpatient approach is the Psychiatry Residency Clinic, operated in partnership with the Indiana University School of Medicine. Through this academic collaboration, patients benefit from a network of resident physicians and board-certified psychiatrists working together on all cases. This unique structure ensures that treatment plans are informed by cutting-edge psychiatric research and a century of collective medical knowledge.
