As a leading mental health facility in the state of Indiana, Harsha Behavioral Center is proud to call Terre Haute home. We serve our community, working as a team towards a better tomorrow. We believe in cultivating an environment that is understanding, welcoming and thriving. Our goal is to evaluate and stabilize the patient in a protective environment so that effective treatment can continue on an outpatient basis in a less restrictive environment.
At Harsha Behavioral Center our patients, families, physicians and staff come together to offer the highest quality of patient care in a safe and nurturing environment. We are constantly working to improve our services by inviting feedback from our patients, staff and referral sources and constantly implementing changes. Harsha Behavioral Center employees recognize the importance of teamwork, which translates into the best outcome. At Harsha Behavioral Center we adhere to uncompromising code of ethics, honesty and transparency and strive to earn the respect of everyone.
Every patient that walks through our door is a priority, and their health and well-being, both physically and mentally, is handled with utmost care. As a quality psychiatric hospital, we challenge ourselves by taking on some of the most challenging cases. Often times, our patients are those who have been turned away from another mental health facility. We strive to break down the barriers and provide the essential care that our patients truly need and deserve.
Established in 2008, Harsha Behavioral Center is a freestanding acute care psychiatric hospital. We have 81 beds for providing inpatient services to individuals needing 24-hour intensive psychiatric care. We serve children aged 3-12, adolescents aged 13-17, adults aged 18-54 and geriatrics aged 55 and older and have an average length of stay ranging from 5-10 days. Each age group is housed in a separate unit.
