Alexian
Brothers Behavioral Health Hospital in Hoffman Estates, Illinois is pleased to be the first
hospital in the nation to receive the status of Disease Specific Certification through the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Hospitals (JCAHO).
The hospital was awarded this distinction in four areas: Depression, Chemical Dependency, Eating Disorders, and Self-Injury. This
value-added certification is given as a result of utilizing the latest evidenced-based protocols for each of these disorders. This means that
patients receive the highest and most consistent standards of psychiatric care available today. Alexian Brothers Behavioral Health Hospital
will continue to strive toward research-informed excellence throughout all of its programs.
