La Amistad Behavioral Health Services Overview

A leader and innovator in the field of behavioral health for over 50 years, La Amistad is accredited by The Joint Commission and is a top performing facility (safety/outcomes) within Universal Health Services (parent company) for many years. At La Amistad, great effort is paid to matching client needs to our specialty services; also, matching the skills sets of our staff is equally important. We have top professionals in the fields of psychiatry, nursing, therapy and ancillary therapeutic specialists (art, recreation, equine and music).

We offer a number of options (tracks) for MHT staff, this includes PRN (as needed), Full-Time and our MHT Career/Clinical Track for aspiring clinicians. The MHT staff work directly with their assigned client population, and their primary responsibility is the safety of our clients. This is achieved through both robust programming and detailed client observations (Q-15’s).
