Introducing Intravenous (IV) Hydration Therapy, exclusively available at Upson Family Medical Center Northside! ✨

Rehydrate and relax in a comfortable, safe environment. A unique blend of vitamins and nutrients are delivered through an IV into your bloodstream for fast absorption so you can feel your best in no time.

How it Works:

✨ Choose from a menu of IV infusions, each designed to provide hydration, boost energy, reduce inflammation, promote healthier skin, hair, and nails, or strengthen your immunity.

✨ A trained medical professional then inserts a small catheter into a vein and attaches an IV to begin the infusion. The infusion session typically lasts an hour.

What it Treats:

💤 Fatigue
✈ Jet lag
💦 Dehydration
🧠 Headaches or migraines
💪 Muscle aches

As we bring attention to Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re proud to shine a light on the compassionate team behind SilverCare Behavioral Health Unit—a place where healing, dignity, and hope come together every day. ✨

At URMC, SilverCare is more than a unit—it’s a safe and supportive environment for older adults who need specialized psychiatric care during some of life’s most challenging moments.

Our 18-bed geriatric behavioral health unit provides short-term, inpatient care designed to help patients age 55 and older stabilize and return to their baseline as quickly as possible. We work with the patient and his/her support system to coordinate care following hospitalization.

Every treatment plan is thoughtfully individualized, addressing conditions such as:

- Depression
- Bipolar Disorder
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder
- Schizophrenia & Schizoaffective Disorder
- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
- Behavioral challenges related to Dementia

But what truly sets SilverCare apart is our people. 💙 Our dedicated team walks alongside patients—and their loved ones—with compassion, respect, and understanding. From admission to discharge, we partner closely with families and support systems to ensure a smooth transition back home and continued care beyond hospitalization.

If someone you love is struggling, help is here, and recovery is possible. Call 706-646-5725 to learn more, or visit us at urmc.org.
