Willow Springs Center is a 76-bed residential treatment facility helping children and adolescents, ages 5 through 17, recover from emotional, psychiatric, behavioral and chemical dependency problems. Since its opening, Willow Springs Center has been a leader in the Western United States in the provision of general residential treatment. The hospital provides separate living dorms for children and adolescents with no overlap in programming.
The Center is accredited by the Joint Commission and licensed by the State of Nevada as a psychiatric hospital. It is a member of the American Association of Children’s Residential Treatment Centers.
Residents live in a dormitory-type setting providing a 24-hour therapeutic environment and full time interdisciplinary clinical and medical staff. A secured (locked) setting and consistent staffing allow patients to feel and to be safe.
There is a gym, playground, spacious courtyard for recreational activities and the Challenge by Choice ropes course.
At Willow Springs, we are compassionate, committed and caring people, dedicated to inspire hope, as well as the ability to achieve and celebrate success through the power of relationships developed with children, families, and the communities we support.
Willow Springs promotes clinical excellence, an environment of collaboration and trust while maintaining fiscal responsibility and integrity for patients, customers and the communities we serve.
