Setting the Record Straight about Acadia Healthcare

Acadia is a leader in providing high quality, evidence-based behavioral healthcare services in the United States. Every day, thousands of Acadia employees deliver compassionate, life-saving care to over 75,000 patients facing complex mental health, addiction and substance use challenges.

Unfortunately, recent media reports about Acadia Healthcare paint a false picture of our policies, practices and standards of care at our facilities. Not only do these stories misrepresent the facts, but they also omit material context and ignore Acadia’s proven track record of delivering life-saving care to over 150,000 patients facing severe mental health crises in our acute facilities last year.

To be clear: we patently reject claims that Acadia places profits over patients – including inferences that we systematically hold patients longer than is medically necessary for financial reasons.

According to the National Institutes of Health, one in five Americans live with a mental illness. It is a disease that impacts every family in our country, and every day our 23,500 Acadia employees help fulfill our mission to provide compassionate care that improves lives, inspires hope and elevates communities.
