About Atrium Health Navicent
Adults and seniors who need hospital-level care for serious mental health conditions can receive treatment in a dedicated inpatient psychiatric unit inside a 637-bed academic medical center in Macon, Georgia. Psychiatric emergency services and a crisis intervention team are available on site. Because care takes place inside a full-service hospital, clients can see medical specialists when physical health concerns need attention during their stay.
Stabilize Mental Health With Therapy and Medication
Treatment focuses on psychiatric stabilization. Psychiatrists manage medications, including antipsychotics for serious mental illness, and track side effects with regular movement and metabolic screenings. Group therapy and activity therapy give clients structured time to manage symptoms and practice coping skills during their hospital stay. Case managers help plan the next step of care before discharge.
Treat Psychiatric and Medical Needs Together
The unit serves adults and seniors and offers dedicated programming for older adults, including people living with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. Clients who need medical attention alongside psychiatric treatment can access additional evaluations and specialist services within the hospital. Smoking and vaping aren’t permitted, and clients who use tobacco are screened and offered nicotine replacement and cessation counseling.
