Earlier this month, Rogers Memorial Hospital-Brown Deer put into effect several additional specialized services for children, teens and adults.
These services consist of partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs for adolescents with internalizing disorders, children and adolescents with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and adults with anxiety and depression or addiction.
Coming later this fall, at the same location, will be an adult partial hospitalization program for dual diagnosis, a program treating individuals with both mental health and substance abuse, along with two dual diagnosis programs for adolescents. Medication-assisted treatment, or the use of medication to assist in addiction recovery, will be included in the adult partial program.
“Rogers’ number one goal is to provide immediate access to care for our patients. Adding even more programs and services is our way of responding to the demand for mental health and addiction services,” said Patrick Hammer, MSA, president and chief executive officer of Rogers Behavioral Health System. “We already have established programming in Brown Deer, and we wanted to show we are committed to serving the Village and surrounding communities.”
Next year, Rogers Behavioral Health System will celebrate the grand opening of a new hospital in Brown Deer, located directly across the street from the new outpatient center. Offering 56 inpatient beds for children, teens and adults, it will become Rogers’ third acute care hospital campus in southeastern Wisconsin.
Rogers Memorial Hospital also recently purchased a medical office building in Oconomowoc that was formerly occupied by ProHealth Care. It plans to move its intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization program from its existing Oconomowoc facility at 34700 Valley Road to the Corporate Center Drive facility, said spokeswoman Sarah Meekma.
Rogers Memorial treats behavioral health patients and has facilities in West Allis, Kenosha, Madison and Tampa, Fla., in addition to Oconomowoc and Brown Deer.
