FIrms Proposals Compete For New Health Facility Beds
The decision rests with J Richard Coney deputy commissioner of state health planning as the East Central Georgia Health Systems Agency compares Serenity Health Care and Health Industries of America proposals. Serenity would add 17 psychiatric beds and 14 state hospital avoidance beds along with nine detox beds and 16 substance abuse treatment beds. The rival plan offers the same drug and alcohol beds but no psychiatric beds and emphasizes post discharge follow up. Serenity projects 3 to 3.5 million annual economic impact and phased hires totaling 90 staff by year three, starting with 55. The initial team includes a doctor, a psychiatrist, nurses, therapists and counselors. Both plans promise immediate community benefits.
