Behavioral Health institution Options closes down following numerous accusations of mistreatment over the years.
In a shocking turn of events, Options Behavioral Health Hospital, an Indiana-based facility operated by Acadia Healthcare, is set to close its doors on October 9. The hospital has been the subject of numerous troubling reports over the past year, with allegations of widespread sex abuse and patients being held against their will for health insurance money.
Mirror Indy, a local news outlet, began investigating these reports a year ago. However, despite numerous attempts, Acadia Healthcare has not responded to questions about the status of these allegations or the hospital's operations.
The closure of Options Behavioral Health Hospital has raised concerns about the wellbeing of its patients and staff. Reports suggest that violence was not uncommon on understaffed units at the hospital. Furthermore, a hurt child was reportedly not given the necessary medical attention, as no 911 call was made from the hospital.
Acadia Healthcare has remained silent on the reasons for the closure. In a September 10 email to Mirror Indy, the company confirmed the closure but did not provide any further details.
The closure leaves the future of three other specialized clinics operated by Acadia Healthcare in Indiana uncertain. The search results do not provide information about these facilities or their locations. Mirror Indy has reached out to Acadia Healthcare for clarification, but as of yet, has not received a response.
The lack of transparency from Acadia Healthcare has fueled speculation and concern. It is unclear whether the company operates these three other facilities in Indiana, and if so, whether they are also facing similar issues.
As the closure of Options Behavioral Health Hospital approaches, the community is left with more questions than answers. The closure is a stark reminder of the importance of transparency in healthcare institutions and the need for thorough investigations into allegations of mistreatment and abuse.
Stay tuned for updates as Mirror Indy continues its investigation into the matter.
