Murfreesboro’s Preferred Treatment Center for Co-Occurring Mental Health Disorders

When an individual experiences symptoms of both a behavioral health and substance use disorder, known as co-occurring disorders, this can be overwhelming and make functioning in day-to-day life feel impossible.

On the co-occurring disorder unit, TrustPoint Hospital provides care to adults age 18 and older who are in need of acute inpatient stabilization due to severe symptoms of a mental health disorder and a co-occurring addiction. This specialized unit at our hospital in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, provides a high level of support for people who are at risk of harming themselves or others or are unable to function at a lower level of care.

 

All patients will receive a comprehensive evaluation, diagnosis, and care plan from our interdisciplinary team, which includes:

• Psychiatrists
• Psychiatric nurses
• Social workers
• Recreation, art, and occupational therapists
• Patient care technicians

Each patient will receive a psychiatric and medical evaluation and 24-hour nursing care and assessment, all within a multidisciplinary approach to individualized care. At our facility, expert staff work closely with patients to create a treatment plan that takes into account their unique health history, challenges, and goals. We help our patients function at a higher level so they can step down to a lower level of care and return to daily life.

The length of a patient’s stay in the co-occurring disorder unit at TrustPoint Hospital will depend on individual recovery needs and progress during admission at our facility in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. However, a typical length of stay is five to seven days.
