Ascension Seton and Acadia Healthcare announced today that the
two organizations have formed a joint venture to expand access to
behavioral healthcare in Austin, Texas, and surrounding
communities.
The joint venture will focus on expanding Acadia’s current
operations at Cross Creek Hospital, as well as the number of
inpatient behavioral beds available in Austin. Acadia will
construct a 106-bed expansion of the acute behavioral hospital,
increasing the total licensed bed count to 196 upon completion.
Acadia has committed to employ Ascension Seton Shoal Creek’s
inpatient behavioral health associates at the newly constructed
expansion, set to open in late 2024. Ascension Seton will continue
to operate the Grace Grego Maxwell Mental Health Unit, a pediatric
unit focused on mental health located at the Dell Children’s
Medical Center.
The joint venture hospital will be in close proximity to
Ascension Seton hospitals and will be one of the training sites for
students, residents and fellows from Dell Medical School.
The Cross Creek expanded campus will be warm and welcoming with
the mission to promote health and healing. The new hospital will be
named “Cross Creek Hospital together with Ascension Seton.”
“This hospital will be a tremendous resource for those living in
our community, including those who are most vulnerable, and we’re
thrilled to bring together the expertise and capabilities from our
two great organizations,” said Andy Davis, president and chief
executive officer of Ascension Texas. “Acadia has an established
track record of expanding access to high-quality, compassionate
care in communities across the country. This joint venture will
build upon our expertise while increasing the number of behavioral
health beds and other behavioral health services available to
patients throughout the region.”
Ascension Seton selected Acadia as their joint venture partner
because of Acadia’s shared commitment to high-quality,
compassionate, mission-driven care to improve the health of the
individuals and communities they serve. Ascension Seton’s decision
was further solidified by Acadia’s proven track record in joint
venture partnerships and the existing relationship with the health
system.
“Ascension shares our commitment to expanding access to
high-quality behavioral health services and reforming the way
mental health patients are seen and cared for,” said Chris Hunter,
chief executive officer of Acadia Healthcare. “This joint venture
presents a unique opportunity for us to expand services to an
existing location with a world-class partner. At the same time, the
teaching component of the hospital is a commitment by both
organizations to the future of behavioral healthcare and will
provide the region with qualified clinicians for years to
come.”
