KINGSPORT, Tenn., Oct. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Creekside Behavioral Health will mark its 6^th year providing empathetic, evidence-based behavioral healthcare. Since its inception, Creekside has compassionately treated over 14,000 patients, ranging in age from 7 to 85+. The facility's leadership team and clinicians are dedicated to meeting the unique needs of our community with 96 acute inpatient beds along with comprehensive outpatient services.

2024 was a year of growth and service expansion, including opening a new 24 bed inpatient unit, tripling the capacity of our Kingsport outpatient clinic, and undertaking significant renovations to our future Knoxville child and adolescent outpatient facility, with scheduled opening in January 2025. None of these accomplishments would have been possible without the staunch support of our patients, their families, our staff, and loyal community partners.
