ECU Health CEO and Brody School of Medicine dean Dr Michael Waldrum said: “This hospital will be a tremendous resource for our patients and our state, and we’re thrilled to partner with a national leader like Acadia.

“Acadia has an established track record of providing high-quality, compassionate care in communities across the country. Together, we will strengthen our level of expertise, implement proven best practices and enhance the quality and number of behavioural health services available to patients.”

Acadia Healthcare CEO Chris Hunter said: “This joint venture will support the development of the next generation of behavioural health care workers and clinicians as our society battles the ongoing behavioural health and substance use epidemic.”
