For more than a century, South Oaks Hospital has been dedicated to its mission of providing optimal treatment for individuals suffering from acute psychiatric illness or addiction. A 202-bed facility located on the border of Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island, New York, South Oaks is known for delivering exceptional, individualized care in a compassionate, confidential setting. We recogniz
e that mental illness and addiction are difficult and frightening disorders, and offer an extensive range of programs and services to assess, support and treat patients and improve their functioning. For individuals experiencing acute illness, inpatient hospitalization is available, with a variety of specialized units (child, adolescent female, adolescent male, adult, senior adult and adult chemical dependency). When less-intensive care is appropriate, we offer a partial hospitalization program, outpatient programs focusing on chemical dependency and substance abuse, and a comprehensive suite of outpatient behavioral health services.
