Silver Hill Hospital Inc

Programs: Inpatient treatment is the most intensive form of care, indicated for a phase of illness that requires a great deal of nursing and medical intervention. Because patients are usually acutely ill during this phase of care, our inpatient treatment plans emphasize diagnostic assessment, symptom reduction, and stabilization. The hospital treated approximately 1,276 inpatients during fiscal year 2017.
