— Mental health and addiction services provider Rogers Behavioral Health will break ground next week on two new treatment facilities in Oconomowoc.
The not-for-profit business currently operates three inpatient behavioral health hospitals, 17 residential programs and nine centers in the state that offer partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs.
Rogers provides treatment for adults and children with depression, addiction, anxiety issues, PTSD and other disorders. It also offers medication managemnent and psychiatric evaluations both virtually and in-person in the state.
At the groundbreaking Tuesday at its 50-acre campus in Oconomowoc, Rogers will roll out details for a new 24-bed residential facility that will provide eating disorder recovery services. And another 20-bed facility will be focused on treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder, according to the announcement.
The company already provides these treatment services there, but says the new facilities will enable faster care for more patients. This week’s announcement references the “growing demand for behavioral health treatment” as a driving factor for the expansion.
Dr. Jerry Halverson, chief medical officer for Rogers Behavioral Health, says eating disorders and OCD can be “highly challenging” for patients but accessible treatment can make a difference.
“With the addition of these new facilities, we are excited to show more individuals that new lives are possible, supporting them every step of the way toward hope, healing, and lasting change,” Halverson said in a statement.
In addition to its presence in Wisconsin, Rogers also has locations in California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Washington.
